The Oinkster is chef Andre Guerrero’s foray into “slow fast food” (Guerrero also owns Max and Senor Fred in Sherman Oaks). The burgers aim to compete with those so-called gourmet versions without setting you back $24. And at $5 a pop, the Oinkster burger is the most affordably mouthwatering way to get your beef fix.

Sometimes you experience something so groin-grabbingly delicious, that you have to go online and make wild and outlandish claims about it. After sampling The Oinkster’s bevvy of items, this is one of those rare times where such an occasion is not only warranted, it is necessary. Everything here is amazing! The pastrami is excellent and they claim to cure it for two weeks. The pulled pork sandwich is perfect: slightly crispy and chewy with a great North Carolina BBQ sauce on top and sweet and tangy coleslaw to make the bun slightly soggy. And a pitcher of Stella Artois to wash it down all for under $20? Sign up for their newsletter and they send out 50% off coupons with alarming frequency.

Casual afternoon dates are a good idea if you want to play it cool and low-key. But you might want to avoid places like the Oinkster for lunch. The eats here are good, but this bbq joint makes one messy sandwich. So unless you think you look charming covered in gooey cheese and meat juice, you might want to get to keep your options open.
