Mom's Barbeque - Valley Village, California

So perhaps you might remember the old adage, there is nothing like Mom's cooking? Well, I am here to tell you that if Mom's BBQ House in Valley Village, California  was my mom, I would have starved in early childhood. To call this barbeque is accurate, to call this great barbeque or even good barbeque is slander against barbeque.  If Soul Food and Barbeque had an illegitimate child, its name sake would be Mom's bbq house. 
 

Sure, there are the ubiquitous protein standards: pork, beef, chicken, ribs: pork and beef, and hot links. And they have bbq sauce, I know because it was everywhere!

 

However, the food was over cooked and swimming in sauce. 

 
The sides either came straight out of a can or tub or freezer. It was bad, bad, bad. If you are ever near Mom's and want real  BBQ, drive in any direction away from Mom's as fast as you can and I'm sure you will find better.
