Bludso's Roasts Free Whole Hog For BCS National Championships

One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

Remember that glorious time that Kevin Bludso, owner of our favorite 'que joint in the city, roasted a whole hog for free at his La Brea restaurant for Monday night football? Well, he's at it again, this time for the BCS Championship this coming Monday, when the Auburn Tigers take on the Florida State Seminoles.

They'll bring out a whole smoked pig once more, doling it out on a first-come-first-serve basis until they run out. The doors open at 5 p.m.

In case you miss out on the whole hog, Bludso's will also have their full regular menu, including beef ribs, which are known to sell out quite quickly. There will also be $3 PBR and $5 Texas margaritas all night.
