Vinnies Smokin BBQ Food Truck, Springfield OR

On 42nd in Springfield. I caught drift of the aroma over there. I turned my head. I said, I'm going over here. Now. I pulled up to the window. A pleasant young woman greeted me and took my order. Easy as pi. Another woman, quick, with presence put my order together for me. I drove around the building and there, a man was working the smoker. The smoked of the wood, combined with the brisket smoking low and sure was one of those things. How to explain? When smoking meat everything has to go right. I can smell the smoke, the meat, the rendered fat, the wood, the air around me, it all comes together. I ordered the Combination Sandwich: Brisket and Pulled Pork, topped with Cole Slaw. Tender, toothsome, the way the pork is pulled gives me something to bite into. The brisket sliced thick enough to be present. The slaw sharing the stage for the greater good.

WOW! Is all I have to say! Vinnie and crew have mastered their trade, and their passion for it really comes out in the flavors!

We tried their 2 meat plate; Brisket and Pulled Pork with Mac and BBQ Beans! Talk about drool worthy, and I personally don’t do BBQ Beans, my husband does… but to my surprise they were SOO GOOD!

We ordered the clam chowder, because cold wet Oregon weather called for it… it was scrumptious and totally hit the spot!

Thanks for filling our bellies with such goodness on our travels passing through! Hope to be back again!

The food was freaking amazing pulled pork to die for beans and rice with sausage Loved it
