    This is awesome, my wife and I own a bbq pop up restaurant in Kentucky called Pit Junkies and this is our 3rd year and we have gotten busier and more popular each year. We hope and plan on being at this size one day. Thank you!

    Great testimony guys, I really needed that. I was just about to call it quits. I do catering and pop-up with tents and a Meadow Creek smoker and with the county I live in they won't let me operate like that. Money is tight but I guess I need to figure out how to get a truck . Anyway thanks guys!!

    Doing business in Kzoo is tough, they hate small business. To this day they are still stone walling people "for covid". Quite a few corruption allegations as well. Props for making it.

    I see the 40-50 k/month revenue, but I'm curious what the NET Income is. A good brisket is $90-130

    My friends and i have made it a habit to stop by here every time we're in Kalamazoo visiting from Chicago, the food is really damn good. The customer service is also top notch, the owner was very welcoming. Cant say enough good things about this place.

    Hi there.... I just started working for a bbq truck for the first time... have usually been in brick and mortar restaurants. the owner has amazing bbq... was wanting to reach out for ideas for a more streamline/efficient line for me to get orders out faster. of course being a food truck, space is limited... you have a ideas for layout in the kitch?
    Any suggestions from anyone are more than welcome!!!!!! I want to help this dude really get his delicious bites out and his truck known and build that rep he deserves !!!!

      Say you made 15k for the month. Pay outs like food hired help supplies bills. Etc. Take away about 6k. Remaining: 9k. Then you still got uncle Sam with his Stinky hand out. Then if you gotta split it between brothers. Be lucky to go home with 4k. It goes down quick. Then you gotta restock. Omg! If you want to make money in it. You gotta go big to see big $$$. That's my guess.

    Food truck's profit margin is 6%, means he brings home $30k before tax working his azz off with a huge investment, capital and a lot of risk.
    He better work for Costco making a lot more with zero risk and capital need =))
    Whoever believes he makes $500k/ yr are deserved to live broke for the whole life to not even know this basic 101 =))

      That's for the restaurants noob. Food trucks have severely different profit margins. And profit does not include salaries they pay themselves as a salary is an expense. Noob.

      Read " Typically, food truck profit margins can vary anywhere from 0% to 15%, with the average mobile business owner pulling in around 7-8%. This shows that mobile fast food is more profitable than a restaurant, but still sits under the US average "

      @@davidpham9353 I agree that mobile food is more profitable than restaurants as restaurants have much more overhead, namely rent and electric. Not to mention the need for hiring more employees due to the longer open times.
      I’ve been running a cart and food truck for 15 years now and our total labor, food cost, fuel, propane, dry goods, etc. don’t ever exceed 50%. Overall a 60% profit. You’re right though, anyone would be crazy to work all those hours for a mere 6-8%

      @@eprofessio There’s no way with all the licensing and permitting fees, quarterly AND annual taxes, as well as vending fees for both public and private events that one can say there’s no value added. This is an economic draw for many states, counties, cities, and municipalities as well. Events bring in sales revenues and increased taxes and there is no way you can circumvent the licensing aspect of this unless you are flat out operating illegally. Small businesses are the backbone to a community. Most begin in markets and in food trucks prior to brick and mortar spaces. You can’t just say they don’t add value without knowing the inner workings of what goes on behind the scenes.
