    Just bought a new food truck...

    Holy *******************ing blank! Opened 'er up on Saturday... BUSY and everything went well. No unexpected weird things happening... a few little "ooops, I forgot about that" type things. Sold 50 pounds of fish, 200 pounds of potatoes and 10 pounds of shrimp in the first two days. Plus...

    I made a mistake

    Don't feed it to the squirrels... send it to me and I'll feed it to my ducks and pheasants. They'll love you forever... :yum:

    That's okay, they can all help me cook. Could 12 or 13 people fit inside a 16 foot trailer?????????????????????? I got it painted yesterday... looks great! Today, the front steps / deck and awning go on. As soon as I can figure out how to post pictures on here, I'll do it. Maybe I'll give...

    I am such a wine NON-snob!

    Interesting... a lot of people here lined up with my view. Don't know why, but I figured I would be slammed for my wine non-snobbery. HA! RD

    Just bought a new food truck...

    OOOOPS! I forgot about the buns... I am buying those, but could you imagine the PR and marketing value of making your own? I wish we could... I'm not quite that brave. Or, nuts... There will be at least two people in at one time. One serving and handling the cash, two prepping and...

    I am such a wine NON-snob!

    Preface by saying I don't drink wine... I cook with it, but I don't like the stuff. I'm weird, yes, I know. I was at a restaurant a few months back with a group of somewhat snobbish people (friends of friends, never again!). One dude orders a $92 bottle of wine for he and his wife. It...

    We're going to set up a facepage and tweeter thing... but, you can always reach me at my site - Google me - Rugged Dude. I'd be more than happy to give the scoop on how to make it happen. There will be differences with permits and things in your area, but the basis will be the same. Get a...

    Just bought a new food truck...

    This is something I've been considering... the only thing is that I want everything we sell to be home-made by us, in our trailer kitchen. There are two Garland ovens in this thing, so if we do sell cookies, we'd make them ourselves in the morning before opening. I think I need a unique...

    Just bought a new food truck...

    Finally got the menu... um... finalized. Keeping it simple to start. Those of you with restaurant kitchen experience will appreciate what can go wrong when a menu is too big and space is at a premium. Technically, it's called $%#!&^$%! ... Every single thing is home made... no jars...
