This review I not normal as Mr Rodney was serving food while the Eaton fires were still burning in Altadena. I appreciate so much that he was still serving his amazing bbq in the middle of such a devastating time. When I went they didn't have all of the meat options nd veggie. But what he do have was delicious! I got the rib tip and brisket. They were tender and top quality. He is in a truck in the cvs parking lot on Lake. Please go out and support this business and know you will be getting great food in re
Rodney's did not disappoint for Christmas Dinner. I ordered Ribs, Brisket, Links, Potato Salas, Baked Beans, Green Beans for a party of 10 people. His portions were more than enough and more. His Ribs were tender and BBQ sauce was full of flavor. Briskets were my favorite, tender, smokey, slabbed with his BBQ sauce. His links were juicy and had a nice snap to the skin. His sides were also amazing. Rodney was also extremely friendly and helpful when helping me what to order for 10 people. I would definitely stop by his truck for a personal serving next time I'm in the area.
I tried Rodney's special, and it was great. The ribs were flavorful and saucy, and the food came out quickly with minimal wait time. They accept both card and cash. I didn't get a chance to try the mac and cheese this time, but I'm looking forward to it on my next visit. Rodney was friendly, and overall, I really enjoyed my experience.
I love Rodney's Ribs! His lean BBQ Brisket Sandwich is delicious! It's thinly sliced, but he is generous on portion of food. The Pork ribs have a nice bite to them, yet tender. The homemade side dishes are delicious as well. His BBQ are lightly smoked and are perfectly sauced. Rodney's mobile BBQ isn't fancy and the menu is straight forward. You can find him at the CVS parking lot on Lake Ave and Mountain St , access from Roma Market. If you plan on stopping by, I would call ahead to see if he is there, sometimes he sells out for the day or running behind. His food are delicious and made with care. Credit Credit and Cash accepted.
So I'll star with this, unassuming small food truck type trailer. The smell when I pulled up was making my mouth water. With my luck they had received a couple big phone orders prior to my arrival so I had to wait for my turn, not a big deal at all. Brisket was good, not the best I've ever had but better than most in CA. Great balance of smoke and seasoning. Very tender but sliced very thin, my opinion brisket should be no less than a 1/4" thick and should bend gently around your finger. Overall I give it a 8. 0 The hot link was delicious, great smoke balance with the spiciness of the seasoning and the snap of the casing, outstanding. Not sure if these are store bought and smoked right or if they are proprietary to Rodney but damm it was good. 9.0 Last but not least are the ribs. Spoke with Rodney briefly as I waited for my food and this guy knows his shit. I knew the ribs would be fire after talking to him and by god they were. Perfect balance of flavors, tender and juicy with the perfect texture, these ribs were up there on my list of ribs I will eat. Great job Rodney. 9.0 Do yourself a favor and hit them up, you won't be disappointed, I promise!!
Stopped here with my boyfriend for lunch. It's tucked in the corner of the parking lot of the CVS on Lake. Not sure if it was Rodney himself, but whoever helped us was super nice and personable, even complimenting my shirt. We each got a brisket sandwich + a side of mac'n'cheese. Ate it at home, it was sooo yummy honestly some of the best mac I've had! Such a cute little spot. Def coming back!
