My fav is double smash with grilled onions, my husband loves the jalapeño smash and kids get it with light sauce and no pickles. PS they do cheese fries for the kiddos too. Even though it's an outdoor vendor, it's always clean and well-run. We've never had a single issue, which says a lot with how often we come. The guys working there don't speak a lot of English but it's not hard to order burgers. Reliable, consistently delicious, and definitely a neighborhood favorite.

We always pass by this stand and typically grab tacos from the stand next to them for years now…read more This smash burger stand only recently popped up and we finally decided to try it last night! We were the only ones here, super friendly staff and they take your order from the side of their stand since the front is too close to the street. They are in front of the Target along Balboa and across from the Trader Joe's. They don't have any seating so I'm sure most people either take it home, eat in their car, or don't mind standing and eating. Ordered easily, menu was simple to read, and for the price - fantastic! They made our food super quick too! Luckily we live close so by the time we got home, everything was still fresh and yummy! We got a single and double smash burger with a side of fries and extra smash sauce. We also added grilled onions because that's a definite must ANYwhere! This is actually the first smash burger place where I found the smash sauce to be a bit spicy. It had a bit of a kick that builds up but otherwise tolerable. I ended up adding a bit of honey to the remainder of my burger to battle the heat lol. Super good overall and the burgers and even the fries (not my usual cut style) were so perfectly cooked! Soft buns and everything. Highly recommend and definitely looking forward to coming back. IG: @ammysalamii

We took a look and the pictures all looked delicious so we decided to give it a try. Best decision! We got to try the Tri tip which was my favorite, but also tried the half chicken (very juicy), & brisket. For side we got the mash potatoes and Mac and cheese which both had excellent flavor. We got a side of the grilled corn which wasn't our top from the other options but still good flavor. The waitress was also very helpful and answered all the questions my hubby had (he had asked quite a bit lol) They have seating inside and out but given the afternoon was fresh we opted to sit outside. The service didn't changed we were checked on often. Either way both options seemed pleasant. All in all, We were left in food coma after in the best way possible. This was a place we're saving to go back whenever we're in the area. 10/10

I have followed him to a few pop ups at breweries across the valley and let me tell you it never disappoints! I've tried everything. Pulled pork nachos, ribs, brisket, and his delicious cheesy Mac n cheese. Portions are perfect. Definitely worth the price. Brisket melts in your mouth. Ribs fall off the bone. Pulled pork nachos are well balanced with the right amount of cheese, chips, meat, cilantro dressing and his award winning BBQ sauce. Ant is the man behind the food but the folks behind the table are just as amazing. Always service with a smile, which is always a treat when ordering. I truly recommend. Support small businesses and your local breweries.

It has been well over 3 years ago that we have had Smokey Cow. It was located on Sherman Way in Van…read moreNuys before they took a long hiatus. We were thrilled when we saw Smokey Cow resumed business and we were lucky enough to get some scrumptious BBQ before heading back to NorCal. Our favorite was the Beef Rib. This trip our favorite was the Brisket. My son said it ranks up there with Franklin's and Jack Black's in Texas, home of some of the best BBQ in the nation. The Brisket had an excellent smoke ring, nice seasoning and most of all it was super tender. Just outstanding, hard to get this good of brisket. The Beef Rib and Pork Ribs were pretty good but probably left on the grill just a tinge longer so it wasn't quite as moist as the last time I had Smokey Cow. I also had the homemade Mac and Cheese, pickles, chips and cole slaw. They make everything including the sauce except for the chips. Brisket 5+ Beef Ribs 4.25 Pork Ribs 4.25 Mac and Cheese 4.0 Sauces and sides 4.5 Great guys 5.0 Overall, excellent BBQ, nice guys and priced normally for BBQ faire. On my next trip to SoCal, I will be stopping by to get excellent BBQ and great service. If you haven't been there before, look for the alley entrance that goes behind the houses where the garages are and look for the lighted entrance. Go early, you don't want to miss out on some of the best BBQ in the area. Smokey Cow is my #1 BBQ, Swinging Door #2 and Bludso's #3.

The folks who run it are funny and friendly and the barbecue is amazing. My benchmark for awesome is usually baked beans and slaw, and sadly, there's no baked beans. The loaded mac and cheese makes up for it though! There's a lot of food for the price, too, which is always a plus.
