Solid mesquite-grilled baby back ribs on a pleasant patio, but the tri-tip fell short and it's not worth a long drive.

This reads like a solid, honest BBQ review: strong craving, a couple of thwarted plans, and a compromise that turned out decent but not destination-worthy.

Key points:

Original craving: Slow-smoked spare ribs at home, but not enough time.
Plan B: My Brother's Bar-B-Q in Woodland Hills (since 1957) — foiled because they open late on Sundays (4:30 pm).
Plan C: Rib Ranch Bar-B-Q on Topanga Canyon Blvd.
