It was only a matter of time.

Presenting the Bacon Bacon Truck, the natural evolution (lovechild?) of America’s dual, unrelenting fascination with bacon and food trucks. The brainchild of Jim Angelus, former GM at E&O, Bacon Bacon will launch in mid-July at Off the Grid; it will also be parked around town and available for private parties.

It is, as you would surmise, a food truck dedicated to bacon.

So what’s on the menu? Bacon, obviously. There will be six sandwiches, all made with bacon (though some can be made without): A pork belly and fried egg one, a grilled cheese number, the L.G.B.T (lettuce, goat cheese, bacon and tomato), pork meatball banh mi (featuring bacon in place of the traditional pate), broccoli rabe with bacon, and the requisite “Bacon Bacon Burger.”

On the side, there will be french fries, fried with rosemary and sage, salted and topped with parmesan; there is the option to get them “dirty” with fried pork belly trimmings. Angelus has also made a deal with San Mateo-based Devil’s Canyon to serve their root beer on tap.

Oh, and there’s another side dish: a bouquet of bacon. It is what it sounds like.

Bacon Bacon is due to launch in two weeks or so.

 

[DECK'ARD]

Mmmmm, bacon.

This sounds so, so good.

"It's Bacon!!!"

What's great about the internet is that I had absolutely no doubt that someone would take the time to upload that.

 

[DietRob]

I saw that on a food truck show on the Food network last night and almost pissed myself. Must try.

 

[coldvein]

looks fucking dank. not the best food truck in america tho.

edit: skillet is way overpriced.

 

[The Technomancer]

broccoli rabe with bacon

I want it

 

[andymcc]

pork belly w/ fried egg sounds too good.

 

[BertramCooper]

Surely the San Francisco nanny state will not let this deliciousness stand.

 

[CornBurrito]

Those fries sound amazing. Not fond of bacon though.

 

[coldvein]

Not fond of bacon though.

how is that possible?

 

[geeko]

Might just drive up there to find this.

They should come to us for SJ Eats

 

[Giant Robot]

fuck that. SJ Eats was a logistical nightmare.

 

[Wario64]

fuck that. SJ Eats was a logistical nightmare.

Maybe the first week. Not anymore now

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Maybe he hasn't had really good bacon yet. The difference between quality, well cooked bacon versus the cheap quickly cooked stuff is pretty high.

 

[jiggle]

sounds yummy
i'd drive up for this

 

[Nard Bagman]

I'll take an LGBT with dirty fries and a large root beer please...oh wait I'm 1700 miles away from this thing.

 

[CornBurrito]

Yeah, at best I've had bacon at buffets.

I will admit that bacon looks and smells amazing. I always try some when I see it, I am just always left really disappointed because the taste isn't as equally awesome as the smell.

You simply have not had the right kind my friend.

It is a life changing experience.

 

[tino]

This shit doesn't even have a website.

Lame.

SHOW ME PICTURE OF THE MENU.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

This shit doesn't even have a website.

It's a food truck. I wouldn't expect the local taco truck or roach coach on the corner to have a website.

 

[ezekial45]

Do they at least have a twitter? That's how a number of food trucks give out their next locations.

Bacon Mania Truck has a website. Pwned.

 

[smurfx]

ah dammit i just got a craving for bacon.

 

[SolKane]

Kind of bacon y'all fry up for domestics? I use Pederson's jalapeno bacon. Couldn't find a good pic, but here's one of their other packages:

 

[AceBandage]

Bring it.

The LGBT is the greatest name for a sandwich.

I am co-founder of Kung Fu Tacos in SF and I am unsurprised by this news. Too many food trucks these days.

I had an idea the other day for a food train, like converting an old style passenger car with windows into a food station. Course you could only serve food at designated train stops. But it would make a cool restaurant, if you could find an old train car to use and plant somewhere.

 

[mentalward]

They have something like this in Napa. It is a wine train and you eat while touring wine country.

But yeah I think the idea of a train with different food being served out of each car would be pretty cool.

 

[mentalward]

Only a matter of time before they arrive in SF.

EDIT: just realized that i didn't quote the post I was replying to. It was in reference to the Nom Nom pic.

Ah, Jonathan Ward! your user name makes perfect sense.

Yeah I am the one without the hat.

That's cool, good luck with your business. If I ever make it to SF I will stop by your food truck.

 

[Beardz]

For the love of god come to South Bay. Sunnyvale. In front of Yahoo is a great spot. Come take our moneys.

Yeah man. Just look us up on Twitter when you are in town. We are always out and about. I don't work the truck like I used to but it is out just about every day.

 

[OttomanScribe]

But do they sell that Iberico?

We do Moxsie in Palo Alto every once in awhile and have done special events for Google. Yahoo! would be cool too. We pretty much stay in the city though unless it is for a pre-paid event. You just can't legally roll up where ever. Lots of permit issues to operate in different cities.

 

[mentalward]

You got me there. But my partner is Chinese so at least the Kung Fu is legit.

 

[Funky Papa]

Holy mother of fuck. 142 dollars for 100 grams of ham?

GAF, do not fall for that.

Tacos are international these days, man!

 

[BattleMonkey]

Too many in the same few areas. So many areas and other states that don't have the food truck craze, it's only really in select areas where it's become huge and people now complaining about too many of them. SF is saturated with them.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

SF is saturated with them.

And is awesome for it. The waffle truck is great, damnit, as well as several others.

You know of no sin until you have tried the hellspawn goodness of the Baco.

Interwoven bacon shell with cheese/potato filling of artery clogging evil.
