🔥 A LITTLE “BEHIND THE SMOKE” INFO! 🔥
We know it can be frustrating when you make plans to come see us and find out we’ve SOLD OUT early. Trust us, we would LOVE to have enough food to feed every single person who comes our way! ❤️
But here’s something a lot of people may not realize:
👉 We do NOT cook or smoke anything on-site.
Everything you eat from our trailer is prepped, seasoned, smoked, rested, pulled, portioned and loaded BEFORE we ever pull into your town. That means we have to decide ahead of time how much food we think we’re going to need.
And sometimes... y’all prove our math VERY wrong. 😂🔥
We don’t prep hundreds of pounds of pork every single day and hope it sells. We also cannot save leftover prepared food and take it out the next day, so making way too much can mean a huge amount of food and money wasted.
Instead, we look at what we sold the last time we were at that location and use that to decide how much pork, mac, potatoes, nachos, sides, ribs, etc. to prepare. Some days we nail it. Some days you guys absolutely wipe us out. And occasionally we prepare for a huge day and wonder where everybody went. 😂
That’s the gamble of running a food truck!
❤️ THIS IS WHY WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND PREORDERING! ❤️
As soon as you see that LaForge’s BBQ is coming to your area, get those orders in! Preorders don't take food away from what we normally plan to bring. They actually HELP us know how much MORE to prepare.
If we normally plan for 100 orders but already have 30 preorders, we know we need to make those 30 orders PLUS enough food for everyone who plans to walk up.
More preorders = better idea of demand = more food on the trailer = hopefully we get to stay open longer! 🙌
So when you see SOLD OUT, please know it isn't because we wanted to pack up early. Selling out means our little family business had an incredible day, but we're constantly learning and adjusting so we can feed more of you next time.
Help us take some of the guessing out of it. PREORDER when you know we're headed your way! 🔥🐷
Thank you for continuing to show up, keep our smokers busy, and occasionally make us question whether we should've smoked another 50 pounds. 😂
