Kenny’s Meat Wagon

I’ll be very brief here. if you see this cart, and a portly bearded man behind it, you are doing yourself a gross injustice by not eating right now!
this is way outside of my comfort food, but I can’t speak enough about how tasty everything comes together. I don’t even like Italian subs but the execution with the super thick slices of meat and a massive heap of more meat with a spiced mayo… I’m actually writing this review in a coma!
believe me– you need this!

I have food truck anxiety in that whenever I come upon a food truck for the first time, I get nervous that I won’t see it again for quite some time, and so I order way more food than I should. I also spend way more than I should, but in the case of Kenny’s Meat Wagon, $ 14 for two sandwiches didn’t break the bank too much, but it did almost put me into a food coma.
I’ve had several chances to check out Kenny and his wagon, but I just never gave it a chance. Today was that day and what a great day it was. I could smell the grill from a ways off, especially the Chicago style Italian beef he had sitting there marinading. The menu offered for regular options and two specials, one being a Veggie sandwich. I had to figure out how to try a bit of everything without overdoing it.
I went with the Italian sandwich, which had a thick slice of Genoa salami and pepperoni on it and a pile of the Italian beef covered in veggies and spicy mayo. This. should have been enough for me, but I had to get the Corby Dog too which was a ¼ lb hot dog topped with pulled pork and homemade BBQ sauce and purple slaw. All the meats are local, and the awesome bread that it comes on is too.
I downed that Italian sandwich pretty quick even though it was quite a bit of food and started to get the meat sweats. It was so good, but Kenny’s not messing around with his meat, and you’ll probably want to take it slow. As far as the Corby Dog, I saved that for later. About 15 minutes later. It was absolutely delicious, and the BBQ sauce mixed in with the sweet peppers and grilled onions was really tasty.
I wanted to get this review out here before I fell asleep at work, because the food was just so good. I see now why he won an award at the Columbus Food Truck festival. He’s also selling OH Chips! If you find him, you have to give it a try. The Facebook and Twitter pages are updated daily, so that’ll be your best bet!

Kenny’s Meat Wagon came to my work today for lunch, and I have to say that the Chicago style beef sandwich immediately jumped into the top 10 sandwiches I’ve ever had. The beef was perfectly cooked, the ciabatta roll was exactly what you need to sop up the juices, and everything just comes together amazingly. I would not hesitate to recommend finding him if you get a chance, if for no other reason than to try this sandwich.

Kenny’s Meat Wagon offers delicious, hearty sandwiches that hit the spot. My favorite is the Italian Stallion. He won Best Food Cart last summer so he’s obviously doing something right.

I’ve had Kenny’s on two occasions… Once at the Columbus Food Truck Festival and once during lunch at Dinin’ Hall.

This guy loves his meat and it shows. The beef is cooked slow and low to give it a fall apart tenderness. His pulled pork is flavorful and moist. And, I can’t wait to try some more.

Just didn’t do it for me
First I would like to say the server was the nicest guy and had my food ready quickly.
Unfortunately i just was not impressed with food. The options were limited so i ordered up the pulled pork sandwich. The pulled pork was not very seasoned and the bbq sauce on top (i chose the classic) was not memorable at all. It was served on a hot dog bun which became soggy pretty fast. Sorry, just not that good.
