Baconmania is a truck out of Costa Mesa, California that is crazy about one thing, you guessed it, bacon. From Bacon Balls to Bacon Popcorn to a Bacon Smoothie, these guys have got all the bacon bases covered...in bacon! From there we pull up to the Curbside truck in Baton Rouge whose plan is to improve the classics in every way they can. The Buttermilk truck in downtown LA is our third stop and they decided that breakfast was such an important meal it should be served all day, and if you taste their Red Velvet Pancakes, you'll understand why. Final port of call is a trip to Austin, Texas for some serious Italian cuisine at the Jalopy truck where they serve their dishes down a slide off the back of an 18 wheeler!
Things heat up as Adam and Andrew Erace begin their road trip with a tangy bacon marmalade made in a community firehouse in Bucks County, Pa. Then, in the sleepy town of Bantam, Conn., they find a European-inspired bakery that has created an irresistible cinnamon-dusted treat. The brothers head closer to home in Pennsylvania when they receive a tip about a purveyor who puts a bold twist on her family's traditional dumpling recipe, and later, they stop in New Hope, Pa., to explore a salted, bacon-infused brownie.
Using local and sustainably sourced ingredients, Garden State Cart in Portland, Oregon serves East Coast-Sicilian fare such as their Meatball Hero Sandwich (on East Coast-style hoagie bread), and their popular vegetarian chickpea fritter sandwich. Led by Chef Joshua Henderson, Skillet Street Food in Seattle, Washington, is a pioneer in mobile gourmet trailers, serving dishes such as sockeye salmon with succotash, and their famous gourmet burger with homemade bacon jam. For a personalized falafel sandwich, Eat St. heads to Liba Falafel, a mobile food truck with a built in condiment bar in San Francisco, California which is known for beginning "falafel affairs." And finally, in Houston, Texas, Oh My! Pocket Pies mobile truck serves empanada style pocket pies with comfort fillings such as chicken chile relleno.
