some behind the scenes quick view of getting my food truck ready for the day, how i prepare and whats involved in food trucking. i can make a more in depth video if anyone’s interested just comment below!
I’m opening mine next month, I’m very nervous but feel a lot better now after seeing this. I appreciate the motivation and hard work behind the scenes. Hope to see more
i was nervous also but after your first hour or 2 ur gonna feel right at home. what i did was setup at my house and had friends and family come by and just acted like i was working for real to get used to everything. i would cook in the truck every night for dinner just so i new how all the equipment worked
Good Luck! You can do it!
Hey.... how is it going?? I am launching a conveyour pizza food trailer soon too!! My friend started Stoners Pizza Joint and recently sold the franchise and sold me his pizza trailer. I am excited to launch a new brand also. Stoner Zone Munchies... Pizza or whatever I want to send through! LMK how AND what you are cooking. I am in Daytona Beach Florida. PeAcE
@@LocalTradesman thats awesome !!! pizza 🍕 is a big seller youll do pretty good. best of luck!!
Hey brother I love the authenticity of this video. So humble and informative. It's been 1 year. Did you make an updated video? I'm launching here in NYC in about a month. I've practiced, ran my numbers, have so much support and I still think I will under deliver. Hope all is well my guy
Not only did I subscribe because you hit ALL my questions, but because that Truck just looks DOPE!! I love the graff! Much love from the West Coast brother!
@@opieangst thank u so much bro !!! my buddy graffitied the truck for me 2 yrs ago. he wants to repaint the whole truck soon so stay posted
This video is exactly what I wanted to see. Thanks so much and please update with how things are going! 😌
im making an updated video, if you need any information and help with anything feel free to send me a message on IG or FB @turburritos and ill try to help u as much as i can !!
@@turburritos631 Music to my ears, what a lovely person you are. Thanks!
I just recently bought a hot dog cart, and already have my location for it. I am hoping to get a food truck within the next couple of years. Might just buy an old FX step van and remodel it. Thanks for the video and there isnt too many behind the scenes video on this subject. Thanks brother!
Dope Truck.
Dope video to introduce them into the life of owning Food Trucks. This business is not for the weak.
Yeah I just gotta say thank you. I couldn't find anything that just shows a for real look at the behind the scenes. Im nervous as heck about starting up in the next few weeks with my own truck. You eased my nerves man. Thank you.
i was nervous also, but honestly as long as u have everything u need and all the food prepared u should do great, nothing to stress about just have fun. what i did was setup in my driveway and had friends and family come over and i cooked as they placed orders
This is what I needed thanks for sharing ❤

Cool video man and awesome truck. I’m about to start my food trailer soon after a long process with the health department. Keep the videos coming
thank you ! good luck with everything keep me posted on IG
I’ve been wanting to open a food truck, to give back and to fill my purpose. This is very informational. Thank you!
im going to be making an updated video soon. just been so busy havent had much time lately.
You should have a big fold out wood sign to be able to read as drivers are driving by. Keep living the dream stay focused on it. 🎉🎉🎉
Much luck on your business! It's nice to see what it takes to do this business. Thank you for sharing! Very much appreciated!
thank you, im going to make a more in-depth video. theres alot that i didnt no i needed before i started and couldnt find anyone to share the information
@@turburritos631 You rock! You are an inspiration! Looking forward to the experience.
@@MC-dd8ls thank you !!! its alot of work but its worth it, if your starting a food truck your first stop should be the board of health get there requirements
Awesome job brother. I will be starting a food truck soon and this has been helpful.
thank you and good luck !!! this isnt a very good in depth video. if you want to chat shot me a message on instagram and i can try and help u out as much as i can @turburritos on IG & FB
That was some really good information man thanks for the tutorial it really helps a lot
Food truck looks awesome, super helpful video.
Also, you sound like Peter Griffin at times 🤣
hhahahahaa . glad it was helpful, im here to entertain lmfao. im gonna make more in-depth videos
Great video! Thank you! I've been toying with the idea of setting up a food truck and you've helped a lot!
its alot of work, has its ups and downs but i love it. being your own boss and not having to answer to someone is great. just save and be prepared for the slow days ,weeks or months. best of luck to you in your journey !!
I fucking love you dude this video was so helpful, looking forward to starting my own!
hahaha thanks man. i wish u nothing but success ! if u need any help u can shoot me a message on IG or FB
You’re right I didn’t see much for “behind the scenes”. Nice job. Let’s see more vids. Good luck!
thank you. i will be making more videos soon.
Awesome video 🙌🧈🧈
Thank you I’m actually working on a new video now. Stay tuned.
really enjoyed the video, would love to see the tripod set up and watching all the food being made and served! God Bless
Great video. Very helpful and encouraging!
@@umairiqbal1916 thank you !
Awesome! I am in the process of building a pizza trailer from scratch!
got a follow from me!
Awesome bro
Thank you for making this video
Great info. You should make another video on ( TRUCK OR TRAILER). also I did not understand how you get electricity from street without generator. Thanks
heyy thank you, im planning on making more videos just need the time lol. A truck vs trailer would be a good video cause i have alot of pros and cons i could talk about. my truck has a built in generator and also runs off shore power, i run an extension cord from my truck to the building which is great cause i leave it plugged in 24/7 with my refrigerators on board never have to unload all the stuff every night
Congrats! Youre truck is very clean that is very rare to see clean food trucks like that
haha thank you, its crazy how some other trucks operate. i would never be able to work like they do haha
@@turburritos631 I've watched a gazillion food shows your truck is the cleanest I've ever witnessed.
Love the video. Very detail!
Good job praying for your success
Nice set up. Thinking doing Toco van soon. Got. GEt for things to to do
Great video
Thank you for this video.. it is hard to find these types of videos
yeah i couldnt find any when i was starting out. im gonna make a more detailed video on the insurance, town permits and all that type of stuff
Love watching this video
im going to be making more videos soon, iv just been so busy i havent had time.
Damn. Those tacos look so delish. Mouth is watering big time.
Great vid bud! Money talks and bullshit walks. Onward and upward to you and yours. Going down the food truck rabbit hole aaaaanddddd……”cooking is cooking”. 👍
Great Video. Very helpful!!!
Thank you so much for sharing.
stay tuned for a new video im working on !
It’d be awesome if you can update us on how things are going. Hope the best for you.
heyy, iv been meaning to make a updated video. things have been good, winter was slow but nicer weather is coming so starting to pick up again.
Love the video thanks!
Great video. Thanks!!
thank you. im going to make a more in-depth video and more cooking on the truck videos soon
it really is hard to find any behind the scenes vids. best of luck! I'm currently thinking of getting one, but there are a lot of trucks in my town so idk how that'll work. guess one way to find out right lol
yeah it is, its alot of work but definitely worth it , try to pick out a food that isnt offered or put a twist on it that draws ppl in. theres alot of events and private partys so there will always be a need for another truck
if you ever need help or have questions u can message me on FB or IG @turburritos
Love the video, been catering with a friend of mine for awhile and have been considering starting my own truck. A couple of things that I would be interested in seeing would be, and I understand if you'd rather not share, like average operating cost and what to expect from maintenance. Startup tips alone could be an extremely helpful video, I don't know about others but I really don't have a good metric for what I should be expecting to put into a decent truck to start with. Lastly, and again it's none of my business, but you might have more business if you angled your truck so it catches the eye from traffic coming from the other side as well. In any case good luck and thanks again for the video.
heyy ! thanks for the comment. i was going to make a start up video because there is alot to it that no one ever shares. your first steps would be at your local board of health. the operating cost would depend on what kind of food and supplies you would need, i could make a video on all my expenses and you could compare to what u would be doing. as far as the truck placement at this location this is kind of the best position the ground is very uneven so i try to keep it as level as i can. i cant face the road directly and behind me is woods. we do alot of events and party’s so this is just a few days a week. you can always shoot me a message on facebook and instagram if you have any questions @turburritos
Question, does your friend make more than 60k after fees n taxes? Im considering quiting my job for 1 but wanna know the reality
@@Hardstyler981 i quit my job and started doing this full time, i left a job making about $60k a year and was living paycheck to paycheck. i can say it is more work then your typical 9-5 job but youll be working for yourself ur the boss theres no one to answer to. u set ur own times and make ur own schedule to fit your needs, depending what type of food truck your looking to do will depend how much work is involved but it’s definitely worth it.. atleast for me i think its totally worth it. i enjoy it so it doesnt feel like a job.
@@turburritos631maybe a sign outside your truck
Thank you for all of this info. You are right, there really aren't beginner videos out there. I'm wanting to start up a food trailer, and I can't find any helpful videos on the actual operations of the trailer. I am thinking about going to an outside town/city, and asking if I can tour one of their trailers and ask questions/take notes, that way I'm not scoping out the local competition.
you should go to your local BOH and get the application. they will have all the requirements you will need for your truck or trailer that way u no what u need when your buying. working the truck itself is basically just getting familiar with everything and how to use it all. customer service is big, i treat everyone like family and friends. i do check out all my local truckers to see how they run there business and get ideas for myself. you definitely should start a facebook and instagram business page and let everyone know your coming soon and grow a customer base , if your on facebook check out the group “food truck training” its ran by bill moore he wrote a few books , very helpful i would recommend getting the food truck 101. if you have any questions you can send me a massage on facebook or instagram @turburritos. if you can please give my pages a follow. best of luck on your new adventure!!
Thanks so much for responding. I followed you immediately. I did contact our local city and they emailed me a checklist, so that's helpful. I've worked in the food industry my entire life. My father and grandfather both owned restaurants. This will be a shift from my norm, but I'm excited about it. There's a lot to learn and a lot to pack into a small space. I've been doing my homework for a long time. I am ready to bring my vision to life. I appreciate all of your advice. I will look into every aspect needed to gain knowledge.
@@charlottesmart3457 that is awesome ! so its in your blood lol, where are you located and what type of food are you doing ??
Hillsboro, Ohio and starting up a brunch truck!
I appreciate this video, I also was looking for behind the scenes food truck videos and couldn’t find any. I’m going to make a similar video.
Amazing, I want to taste these delicious Tacos !!🤩
if your local stop by lol
good luck, dont get discouraged!
Logo is 🔥🔥 2
thank you !!
thanks for sharing this sneak peak behind the scenes video. Is this just a side hustle or full time? I just found this channel, definitely wish I was closer!! 760 miles just a bit too far!! keep up the great work man!
heyy !! i do this full time , best thing i ever did ! im gonna be making more videos just been busy working i want to start doing live videos working on the truck also just need to figure out how to do it haha
YO... Nice to see other peoples vision! You need a sign holder/spinner if it was me. Huge ballon?? Just a few more customers an hour will pay for it. I have been thinking of ideas for the past 30 years. Finally, ..... I just finally got my Triple Decker Pizza Oven Trailer. I bought it off my buddy that sold his pizza franchise , Stoners Pizza Joint. Soooo any how, I am in the business, if anyone needs me to roll in, let me know... my trailer... "STONER ZONE MUNCHIES"... Hippie or Concert Events fit the Vibe we are into! PeAcE
Thanx man 💯
Thanks for the vid 🫡 👨🍳
thank you, im going to be making a more in-depth video soon as i get some time lol. i also want to start streaming live working on the truck just need more subscribers to get that option haha
How about putting a sign down the road on the side where they can't see you to alert them that you are coming up? Great video. Thanks.
Good job. Why don’t you install a sign sticking out on the back of the truck so other drivers can see it while driving.
heyy, i actually bought 2 big flags that say burritos and tacos i put out near the road now
Can you do a video about how much it cost to buy truck and supplies
heyy, making a video on buying a truck or trailer would be tricky, it all depends on what kind of equipment you need or want, if your buying new or used and if you go with a trailer depends on how big u want or need. id say shop around for a used truck or trailer try to find a good deal on somthing u can start using right away with out having to buy and equipment. down the road u can always sell it and build one to your liking.
Great video thanks
Where did you get those lights from? What about the under glow lights?
the flood lights i got at home depot, i ordered. under glow lights from amazon and they send me a bag of flowers haha so i need to reorder them.
Get a Aframe sign that says Food Truck for the opposite traffic.
The business will good you are doing good man
thank you !
@@turburritos631 no worries my man I opening my soon waiting for inspection. I see your heart and you trying praying you will make money
@@caughtinthemoment8750 yeah we have been doing good so far 🙏🏻. what kind of food you doing ? where u located ? check me out on IG and FB @turburritos
@@turburritos631 I'm in maryland
@@caughtinthemoment8750 you have an IG ill follow you, if your on facebook get on the group (food truck training) its a great group
Anybody have any advice on if building a food trailer or buying one already made is cheaper than the other.
buying a used one would be cheaper then building one new
Thanks for sharing the valuable information. Is the box 14ft or 17ft ? I am trying to buy a used box truck or a sprinter and customize it into food truck. do you know who can do that kinda of job at decent price. who is your food provider ? (sorry I got million question that needs answer , Anxity thing)
the total length of my truck i believe is like 29ft ill have to double check, its longer then most step vans, honestly i dont no anywho to recommend theres a good group on facebook im in its called ( food truck training ) there very helpful in there, as far as food providers i use restaurant depot for most and also local supermarkets. if you have any questions you can shoot me a message on instagram at tuburritos and ill try to help as much as i can !
Great video! BA truck man!
thanks bud !! im gonna start making more food truck videos, theres alot of stuff to talk about that i can never find on youtube.
Did you get a Loan or Pay Cash for Truck?
Did you Need Business Plan?
Did you have any previous experience that helps you run the food truck?
heyy bud, no experience. i jumped into it head first haha still doing strong if u need any help shopt me a message on IG
Could you cover how it works for the set up site? As in, do you have to pay a monthly rent like a stall space? How often do you change location? Thanks, keep it up!
heyyy !! so where i park right now is my own property, i have a few friends that have trucks and pay rent at there locations. price vary depending on location and if electric is provided. i dont change locations as far as parking at different spots. i do leave for events and parties when we are booked. hope this answers your question, you can also send me a dm on IG @turburritos
Hello nice truck , one thing get flags like hot dog, burguer, tacos, and others so you can put on grou d or cement. Uckets ok it will help another it did to me. Good luck
heyy, i have a couple flags i put out. i want to get some neon signs next haha
make one showing how to start the grills
@@auditgeographic once ur propane is on you just lite your pilot then turn the knob on the grill to low med high. i could make a short video on it for you. it would be like a minute long lol
@turburritos631 even the generator, like starting it and shutting down for the day including cleaning. I own a food truck. It helps me
This video was great, im opening a food truck. I wish I knew more people that had food trucks. Is hiring doordash to do delivery worth it?
what I did was I friended a lot of the local food trucks on Instagram and started talking to them also visiting their truck to get to know a few of the guys and then when you do an event with them you at least know them which is pretty nice. as far as DoorDash goes being a new business on their platform the fees that they charge are a lot plus the prices that they have each item for is expensive so I really don’t make any money with DoorDash if they lowered the fees and stuff like that it might be worth it
Nice video 🥰
thank you 🥰
@@turburritos631 I’m that was an amazing video. I’m going in business and I’m excited and nervous 😜
@@christinamaxie9445 congratulations!!! best of luck ! …i was very nervous when i first started also, what helped me was i had a few party’s at my house with family and friends and i would work the truck to get familiar of how to really work the truck and get a system down. it will take some time but youll do great, its been nine months and its a walk in the park now, iv done a few events where there was thousands of ppl and my line was an hour long from the moment i started till i closed. u get through it one ticket at a time lol. what kind of food are you serving and where are you located ?
Good evening I nee
I was confused by the name until I read the “about” section. You should change it to Turboritos! Your current name reads as Ter-burritos instead of Turbo-ritos which I’m assuming is how you want it pronounced. 😊
Where are your Located? I should be a great helper to any Brand but yours especially, I think that would be pretty cool too thanks
Long Island, NY
l"want this
How much is that food truck and where are they sold please,, thanks
I also would like to know the price and where to buy.
I didn’t notice a POS. Are you cash only?
we use square , it connects to the phone. we also take venmo & zelle.
where you get lights from and how are they controlled or connected
the lights i got from home depot, i hard wired them to a plug so i can unplug them and they are also controlled but a remote if they are hard wired to a switch
I'm thinking of buying a food truck seen a lot on ali baba do you know if there any good really looking for advise from someone whose done it
i wouldnt buy any off line, check them out in person and look up reviews on the builder. you might be able to find a used one for a decent price
Where or how did you find the people who work on your truck?
i have many friends in all different trades so they help me out. if you dont no anyone and r friendly with any food truckers in your area you can ask them who they use
Where do you dispose your water waste?
local cesspool companies can pump your truck. its grey tank water which u can dump in drains
👍
Can anyone tell me where I can get a truck like best deal genuine one
check facebook marketplace
Hello havnot seen any new videos
heyy sorry, been really busy. ill try to get one out soon !!
you ate the profits
hahaha taste testing
You need flag signs on both sides of your location. Let people know that you are selling BURRITOS!!!
Hi handsome. Those tocos look good. I would like try new york tocos. ❤ Great job. Also i would like you pay wih crypto. I would you to buy XRP,XLM,XDC. Its for your future.

@@turburritos631 from Seattle man and we got terrible pricing but it’s still better than this 😂😂
@@supremeYTofficial all my prices are comparable to everyone local to me

Your rice cooker is all scratched up which is very bad for your customers’ health. Please replace it. New Rice cookers are not expensive
thanks for your concern. It’s been replaced last year. ❤️
How many customers came that day you film?
not sure lol
