Red Eye BBQ Food Truck

Red Eye BBQ

So I was in Orlando this past weekend and of course while I was there I had to look for a Food Truck to try. Well the story actually goes like this. Several weeks ago my buddy Thomas mentioned that he is going to Orlando for a AAU Baseball Tournament for his son, and a light goes off in my head. I was like maybe I will come up and catch a game over the weekend, but my true motive was to try some of Orlando's Food Trucks. Well I actually only caught up with one truck around 1pm after driving two and a half hours to Orlando, and it was Red Eye BBQ. We found Red Eye BBQ parked at the Dr Phillips Farmers Market on Saturday. As soon as I step out of the car all I can smell is the aroma of Smoked Meat. The first this I see on the menu is something called the Big Daddy, it is a Cheese Burger topped with Pulled BBQ Pork and Mac & Cheese. So of course I order it. The burger it self was cooked to perfection, the pulled pork you could tell had been smoked nice and slow for hours and the homemade BBQ sauce had a nice sweet taste to it, and the Mac & Cheese was cheesy and creamy. We also order some Loaded French Fries(Not your usual load fries). The Loaded Fries had melted cheese and enough Pulled BBQ Pork on them for multiple sandwiches. The Big Daddy sandwich was $8 and well worth it, and the Loaded Fries were $4 and worth it also. I can honestly say that next time I am in Orlando I will be chasing down the Red Eye BBQ Food Truck and try some of their other menu items such as the Baby Back Ribs, Smoked Brisket, or maybe the Smoked Sausage. So if you are in Orlando I highly suggest that you look them up on their Facebook Page go to where they are located that day and give them a try.
