Breezy Yinger, a member of the organizing committee, said 11 food trucks coming and included The Crazy Redhead Canteen of Troy, Hunger Paynes of Dayton, and Susie’s Big Dipper of Piqua.
For example, The Crazy Redhead Canteen of Troy Ohio food truck specializes in gourmet grilled cheese and sandwiches made on fresh grilled Italian bread, but said Yinger, it is its Trailer Tots that people ask for. The dish is a large order of very crispy tots loaded with pulled barbecue pork, cheddar cheese, sour cream and chives.
Hunger Paynes of Dayton features a croquette ball of meat, fish, or vegetables covered with egg and bread crumbs and fried in oil with a complementing sauce accompanying each type of croquette.
Susy’s Big Dipper from Piqua will dish up ice cream and sandwiches, and Grumpy’s will serve up BBQ pork.
The other food trucks to be there are This Little Swine of Mine, Mike’s Family Concessions, Food To Go, Hot Diggity Doggers, Tin Roof Mobile Food, Pull Up and Grill and The Pig Shack.
Yinger said new this year is a vendor and craft show which has over 20 booths of items for sale.
In addition to the culinary delights, Yinger said they will host a Car, Truck and Motorcycle Show. The vehicles will be on display from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. with voting between 2 and 4 p.m. Awards will be given at 5 p.m.
