Some things are just meant to be together… peas and carrots, peanut butter and jelly, and BBQ and summertime. Maybe it’s the time commitment it takes to get it right, or maybe it’s the outdoorsy atmosphere, but BBQ is certainly best enjoyed in the summertime while surrounded by all your loved ones. This teeny roadside restaurant near New Orleans has some of the best Texas-style BBQ around, and it’s a must-stop for summer BBQ.

As the name would suggest, you’ll find LA 23 BBQ off of Highway 23 in Belle Chasse, Louisiana.

After all, some of the best BBQ spots in the country are little hole-in-the walls. LA 23 is no different. No frills, all flavor.
There are a few patio tables in front of the ordering window.
