    Food Friday BBQ Series: Ray's BBQ

    April showers bring May barbecue? The days are getting longer and the weather is getting warmer, which means that enjoying a rack of ribs at a weekend family BBQ is a must. Of course when you think of BBQ the next thought is Texas or Louisiana or Tennessee. But LA has some notable smokes of their own. For the whole month of May, AirTalk's Food Friday is showcasing the best that SoCal has to offer. Today, we're joined by Ray's BBQ, a family-run joint in Huntington Park where brothers Sebastian and Raul Ramirez man the grill just as their father taught them.
