It was outside some apartments, kinda close to Knob Hill as I remember. I was in Torrance for three months on business. Small world. Wish I'd been on the HAMB when I did that trip, I would like to have met up with some of you guys.
Yeah, bag on Cali all you want but always remember... Texas is the state that brought TEX-MEX!!! to the world. No, you will never be forgiven! "Hey let's make some tacos! (Pronounced: TAY-KOES)" "Great! I got a whole pound of HAMBURGER MEAT!?!?!?!?!" WTF?
I know that beans shouldn't be in chili. But I need to streeeech it out a little. They only cut the heat a tiny bit. Texans think eating leftovers fot breakfast is gourmet chow. I've tried the steak at the big place in Amarillo about 35 years ago. Don't get me started on Texas steaks. Pah! I hope to come to the DOTD and teach chili lessons. Remember I learnt from Shelby. Chili is good at a beach but it rises to the level of Godhead at the racetrack. I bet I need to bring ingredients from California though. BUT! I looked for the thread where you Tejanos start you're own HAMBBQ and guess what? It ain't there? Where's the pride? Just follow the bouncing ball, guys and gals. Read the So Cali BBQ thread and let Uncle Dante show you what to do. He started calling in the troops 3 or 4 weeks before the event and got a pretty good turn out. I know you guys have 2 or 3 nice rides and a lot of "Lifestyle" cars, so as the Nike guys say "Just do it". Back to your Texas restuarant reviews. This is what happens when you watch too much Oprah.

Hey Phil, do you have any pictures of these....so called "lifestyle" cars id love to see one. (insert big smiley face here) Thanks, Travis
hey man,, i got none of that tofu thing you braught...heard from a few people it was excellant. snooze you lose eh? there will always be the next time
The pigpen likes to make a pot of chili once in awhile also. Someday, our paths will cross again, and then, oh Master Chili Man, you will have found your match! (PS... I was born in East LA; not from Texas originally. There lies the dilemma.) pigpen
Hey Ryan I'm loosing respect for you quickly here..., "Are you living under a "Rock" in Austin...?????" I've been everywhere..., and Nothing can beat a "TEXAS BBQ" And for those that care..., knowbody knows how to cook Brats like Wisconsin Tailgaters...!!! And in Vietnam they sure know how to "WOK a mean Dog...!!!" (Oh **** did I go over the line Again...???!!)"
I lived in Dallas metro for two years and I loved the BBQ!!! My favorite was REd Hot and Blue. It was in a yuppie area Las Colinas I think. they had awesome food and played blues music and had all this cool blues stuff like guitars and hendrix posters and **** like that...I want to BBQ now.
(Chili Phil, keeper of the flame and reknown **** disturber.) you crack me up. i missed this whole post. the Hamb So-Cal BBQ was a great turn out. thanks to everyone coming out. i'm already planning next years. my main goal is to turn this into a big HAMB.B.Q. what everyone drives out for. you have the "Hamb drags", "day of the drags". those are big events. how about just a plain OL' BBQ. only for Hambers. everyone puts faces to names, and finally gets to see the projects everyones heard about and seen on the Hamb. we had people come out who have never heard of the Hamb. we're just doing what we all should be doing " SPREADING THE GOSPEL OF TRADITIONAL HOT RODS AND CUSTOMS" next years BBQ there might be awards given out. i haven't made the catagories yet. but one will be for the long distant Hamber. thanks again... P.S even though i have never been to TX i heard that the Salt Lick is the best. i hope to make the next Round up.
Horse****! If California knows how to cook so well, why are ALL the californians moving HERE? I KNOW it AINT for the weather Havent you heard? In Texas, everything is Bigger & better. Perhaps you can find an edible thing or two in California, but down here, you cant take two steps without stumblin across an OLD BBq joint full of crusty old timers smokin tons o meat. Hell, I bet we got more of em per county than Californias got avacado eatin fruitcakes and thats sayin somthing. When I think of california I dont think about steers, cowboys, ranches or meat. I think of Bill & Ted So.Cal? The birthplace of Hotrods. N.Cal? Buncha ****py vino. Frisco? Heavy metal & some Homos too. Chili??? Fire aint what makes it nor beans. Get that **** too gloopy glopy thick and you can keep it. Its gotta be almost brothy, no beans. My great grandfather, ( A Texas Ranger) fed his chili recipie to ****rels in the Smith County jail and I hear they loved it so much they were boozin & brawlin just to get locked up again and eat more! Yer **** talkin doesnt stand a chance against that of a True Texan and I'm sure yer cookin don't either. And that goes for ALL you California fruitcakes P.s. Just cause I'm a knowitallbetterthanyou selfrightious Texan doesnt mean I can cook fer ****
Why do you think they drove them cattle up here for? BBQ Baby! They knew back then that K.C. was the place! Arthur Bryant`s is WORLD FAMOUS!!! NUFF SAID!!!
Hey pig, I was born in East LA too! We ARE soul brothers! And I give major props to Texas, musically and with my chili. chili
Beans beans the musical fruit......the more you eat the more you toot. just had to leave yourself open Chili Willy! **x
Well, DW, ******** is all fine and good, but it won't carry you very far in the real hot rod world. My good pal Dante has the goods. He put this thing together on the HAMB, we had a turn out bigger than most long time organized car shows, that's right hre on the HAMB, we ate like GODS, at a beeyooteefull beach, hung out with the sisters, impressed the lifeguard, wowed the lowriders, posted pictures, laughed our ***es off and did our part to spread the gospel of traditional hot rods. And Dante is a master craftsman. The '54 Ford there that he did the grill surround on used almost NO body filler. And it was smooth as a lawyers excuse. You may talk and talk and talk. But you ain't showed ****! Put up or shut up, is what we say on the West Coast. Chili Phil, world reknowned **** disturber, tire wiper and master chili chef. PS, Out here we have a band called the Self Righteous Brothers. Top That!
P.S. I DID say So. cal was the birth place. Read it again, you will see. Oh, I'll give yer "chilli a shot, maybe even your wine but you can keep that fruitcake
Simmer down there ChilliPhilly My words are gospel, not ********. The "real" hot rod world?What I've been doing w/ these Ol cars is for me and my pleasure, not your "real hotrod world" Put up or shut up? I may only cook for my family but build cars I can do & thats just what I am doing. When you "stir ****" you are bound to get alittle onya. Thats what we say down on the third coast
No one anywhere ever could out que my wife.Weve got chops to prove it.You like apples?How you like them apples?
Hey Chilli, Wanna eat like a God? I got somthin..................AW just yankin your chain Maybe someday I'll be lucky enough to get out of this ****hole heat long enough to visit and personally learn of your chilli greatness.( If you'll have me) AND.... if the weather there is as they say it is, you may be stuck w/ me cause 33 years of this fukin heat is maddening.And if you havent already, Get your chilli lovin *** down to Tx. somtime, you'll love it.
You all are watching too much Cartoon-Cartoon and not enough Food Network. They just had the National BBQ Cook-off re-run last week. I do NOT remember who took 1st place, but second place was the Head Country BBQ from Ponca City, OK. Neither of the teams they were showcasing won. I remember a KC Missouri team was in the top 5 also.
Can't believe that all you Californicators left out Santa Maria BBQ, especially since the birth place is pretty much dead smack Paso Robles! OK, SM BBQ may not cons***ute real BBQ in some minds. When in LA visiting family(The Valley, on Devonshire?) I used to go to Dr. Hoggly Wogglys' Tyler Texas BBQ. Still in existance? They put pickles on top of their beef ribs, kick ***.
