‼️THIS is why we do what we do! 🍓

“Hey guys,

Before I fall asleep tonight, I just wanted to thank you for your hospitality at the food truck.

I was really happy to taste your food and happier than that to find that it was exceptional. I don't think I've had a more memorable BBQ in Chicagoland.

Your sides are unique and interesting and they taste great. We ate everything.

The meats are memorably seasoned. They don't taste like other places. They stand out. For me, the toothy approach to ribs is what I look for. It reminds me of home. But also the cook on it ... Your got an impeccable bark on the ribs and the rub is really delicious.

Your sauces are fire.

So just really excellent work. I think the biggest take away for me was that you really have a soulful understanding of flavor. You have found your own way to flavors and I'm sure there are many stories behind most of those recipes.

Well done.

I hope we find ways to partner as I would be very proud to work alongside you guys.”

- Cody

Thank you Cody!! We are so glad you enjoyed our food truck! We work hard every day for feedback like this! You made our day!! 🍓♥️🤗
