This Throwdown is in progress until September 20th.
My best food truck experience was about 10 years ago when I bought a pulled pork sundae at a bluegrass festival and horseshoe competition the day before the Wyoming State BBQ Contest. It had layers of saucy pulled pork, buttery mashed potatoes heavy on the garlic, coleslaw, and bacon bits. So.... I knew this was an idea I could chase for this TD. The mention of utilizing the "serving method" typical of food trucks and the use of "previously smoked food" was right up my alley too.
The initial plan was a straightforward pot of Cajun spiced beans with some smoked ham shank meat from last month, andouille, and served with rice.
But in the morning, I smoked two money muscle roasts, and later Mrs ~t~ made some corn muffins and salads and everything else came together.
About 2 hours later the sun was in my favor..... I'm not a good enough cook or photographer to make a butt look this good.
Then a couple hours later.... wrapping for the finish.
Meanwhile.... Mrs ~t~ got the salads and corn muffins together, and there was some grilled sweet corn in the mix.
The end result with the sliced pork and sundae was "Food Truckin" awesome.
PS ~ The bean and rice sundae was better than I ever thought it would be. The yellow layer is grated cheddar cheese.
