There used to a husband and wife team who had the downtown mobile lunch market cornered. They had two hot dog carts on adjacent corners on Nicollet and 7th street. This was back in the day when food trucks were outlawed but these two somehow beat the system. Now that’s all changed and I’m super excited about it. Not that their hot dogs weren’t good. But man cannot live on dirty water dogs alone.
Spring came to town early this year so we are taking advantage and started our mission to try as many food trucks in MSP as possible. Last week we got to it and walked up and down Marquette Ave until we decided to get in line at the Get Sauced truck that was serving up a variety of pulled pork tacos and sandwiches. I got the Kalbi Pork sandwich and Katie got the BBQ Pulled Pork sandwich. I’m going on the record here to say that the Kalbi Pork sandwich was one of the best things that I’ve ever eaten. You owe it to yourself to try.

612.239.6994The picture above is the Kalbi Pork Sandwich. It is marinated pork with cabbage slaw and avocado spread on sweet toasted roll. Srsly one of the greatest sandwiches I’ve ever eaten. And I’ve eaten my fair share of ‘wiches.
Katie didn’t waste any time diving into her pulled bbq pork sandwich.
The good folks at Get Sauced.
Try the XXX hot sauce. It was hot but that good kinda hot. The type of hot that makes your head sweat.
That sandwich has got some real sex appeal! We tried out their lobster roll and Mexican corn last fall. Pretty good!

A Kickstarter project for your heart and gut:
“I’m creating the Food Truck Hub with a simple mission: Provide the support that mobile food businesses need so that the owner/operators can be out doing what they do best – making and selling high quality, locally-based foods throughout Minneapolis and St. Paul. ”
The project would fund a permanent site where food truck owners could prep and store food, meaning you get even more delicious food coming your way. And with gifts like free lunches, mugs, and VIP passes to the opening, a donation could make a solid present for the foodie in your life.
