Big City Country Boy

They came to Niles with other food truck. I have to say it’s was damn good. Had the brisket melt. would defiantly get it again.

Ordered the Pastrami sliders for my coworker and he couldn’t stop raving about them! I tasted the homemade chips and they were to die for. The sauce they put on the sliders was heavenly. I will be following this truck!

Was in a rush to grab lunch before heading back to my office, decided to order the tri-​tip sandwich but somehow ended up ordering the rib tips. I wasn’t prepared for how big a portion or how messy it would be, but oh man was that some good BBQ! I was wearing white so I didn’t chance it and I grabbed extra napkins and a fork and knife — meat cut away from the bone really easy, and it didn’t get all up in my gums when I ate it either so it was PERFECTION! I can’t wait to go back for more when I’m better prepared! The chips were okay, but I actually ditched them to make more room for dissecting the ribs but I’ll nosh on those next time for sure!

My first time purchasing lunch from Big City Country Boy’s food truck. I ordered the shirmp tacos, but to my surprise I was served fried battered bay shirmp. The batter was thick. I was very disappointed. The potatoes chips that were served with the meal were soaked in cooking oil and they taste like the were cooked with the shirmp. Very, very greasy meal.

This past weekend at the International BBQ Festival, I had the pleasure of meeting the crew of the Big City Country Boy truck. Given that I work for the local country music station, the name alone caught my eye. Not only were they incredibly nice and personable, the food was AMAZING! Highly recommended for dining AND catering purposes. Thanks guys!

Came here during the Fremont Food Eats on Friday, ⁵⁄₁₅
and a lot of choices.
I tried this food truck and it featured American BBQ with a country flair. I thought this was decent BBQ, although I enjoyed the ball tip because it was perfectly cooked, moist and tender. There was good marbling of meat and fat combined. I had the 2 meat combo which had the home made kettle cooked chips, ball tips (beef), pulled pork (it was OK with the tad spicy BBQ sweet and tangy sauce), and the house slaw.
Food is 2.5÷5 — it wasn’t really special for me as for American BBQ. Just decent.
Service — the female lady was trying to answer my questions and great service. ⁴⁄₅.

Decent fast food. I had the pulled pork sliders and my husband had the fish n chips. The sliders were huge, a nice mix of pork and slaw. The slaw was the best part of the slider, pork could have used more seasoning and the bun was too large. The fries were cooked good for soft fries, could have been more crisp and less oily. The fish n chips were thin light and crisp, with home made thick potato chips. The chips were incredibly good, far better than their fries. The light fish pared nicely with the slaw made the dish more fresh. I would go back but would order something different, probably the fish n chips.

The first time I had this truck I was pleasantly surprised. We didn’t know what it was and took a stab at it. The hogstyle nachoes were delicious and cheap for the heaping pile of nachos and meat you get. Great mixture of flavors and the pulled pork was perfect. I’m not big on BBQ. but if you love BBQ this is the dish for you. The second time I got it I asked for the BBQ sauce on the side rather than on the chips. but it still came on it and maybe because it was later in the day it was much smaller than the first time we got it and the meat definitely wasn’t as much.
Another day I got the crab cakes. Not bad for $ 14. Foodtruck wise it’s pretty good. perfectly crisp on the outside served with slaw and home made chips. I did ask for a side of their «special sauce» they hand out with the fried pickles to dip my chips in YUM. Did I love it, no, but for a truck it was pretty good if you’re looking for seafood.
Fried pickles… delicious but not worth the price for the small boat.
On my most recent visit I got the bacon mac and cheese. It comes topped with the home made chips… but good lord if you’re getting this don’t be fooled. It’s not a side dish like all the other trucks at food truck mafia… this lasted me 3 meals. It’s heavy but pretty damn good and the bacon is REAL bacon strips cut into gigantic slices not little cheapy bacon bits. This is totally worth the price.
Clearly, I’ve been to this truck a few times already. I enjoy trying the different dishes they have on their menu… my waistline not so much. thank goodness it’s wintertime… this food provides me with some extra insulation. :)
