Drewski’s Hot Rod Kitchen Truck

Very big fan of the fried Mac and Cheese Balls. Was hesitant at first but they are sooooo good. The sauce on top adds the perfect amount of heat, the outside is crunchy and inside is warm Mac and cheese loaded with bacon. My boyfriend always orders the hemi (pulled pork and Mac and cheese sandwich) and he loves it!

Took a peek at their menu during one of the Off The Grid schedules in Pleasanton. The various kinds of grilled cheese sandwiches looked very tempting, but I was almost to capacity because of all the food that I had already eaten at the other food trucks.
Deep Fried Mac N Cheese Balls with Bacon ($ 5) was what I tried. There are three of these minature round balls included in the order. Bit into one, and I immediately liked it. Hey if you are a fan of mac & cheese, then it’s hard not to like these little goodies. (3.5 stars)
For now, I’m rating Drewski’s Hot Rod Kitchen Truck 3.5 stars. Will have to try more of their menu items before giving them an upgrade.

Stopped by the Walnut Creek Off The Grid earlier this week and I saw Drewski’s. I’ve been meaning to try their food for the longest time. I ordered the Drewski Dog — a hot dog wrapped in bacon, with grilled onions and spicy aioli. Holy Hot Dog Gods, this was smackin’. I loved it. I honestly could have eaten two of them… don’t judge me, I’m a closet fat kid. I didn’t have the appetite to get the mac and cheese balls with my hotdog, but I’m definitely trying that the next time I see them. I work in Bishop Ranch in San Ramon and am really hoping they come out to the Food Truck Mafia they have here during the week.

These guys were great and the food is finger lickin’. Got the Tot-​chos with pulled pork and wasn’t disappointed, it was a wet crunchy mess of goodness. Of course, the bacon wrapped dog with caramelized onions will make you drop on all fours and beg.

Don’t trust this place, the guy who took my card to pay for my food charged me twice!!! I only bought one and they charged me twice. I feel so afraid going back to this place.

I’m not going to lie, when I heard of Deep Fried Mac and Cheese balls my immediate thought was ”eaaww, what the eff??” I felt like my arteries started to clog simply by the thought of them but then seeing pictures I decided I didn’t just want them, I needed them. (
).
I’ve never been a fan of Mac and Cheese at all and probably only had it 2 or 3 times in the last 10 years so I really wasn’t sure what I was going to make of them but holy yum, they were actually really good! Laced with Bacon and topped with spicy sauce they were crunchy on the outside with gooeey cheesy inside, a nice appetizer to the Cheeseburger I had later that evening (I know. Not what I would normally eat but I figured why not go all out?). The staff at the truck were efficient working through the huge crowd and my order was ready really quickly. Next time I’ll try one of the Sandwiches!

Ridiculously high priced meal. As much as my kid liked the hotdog, for the tots and dog, $ 9?! I felt jipped. Would re-​think food trucks because it’s a hype trend that costs more.

Drewski’s Hot Rod Kitchen has an interesting menu with fusion creations and some use of fruits in their sandwiches. When I tried them at the El Cerrito, Berlekey Off The Grid food cart festival, they had a «Special» ($ 9): Tri-​tip in a French roll, with pickled daikon, apple, carrots, cilantro, chili serano, and aioli.
The use of chili could blow it for some people, so watch out if you are not good with hot-​spicy foods. Instead of picking out the chilis, ask them if they can hold the chili because some chili seeds may still remain in the roll. There was sadly just an OK amount of what was really tasty tri-​tip — tender, moist, and in a sweet sauce. Pretty decent value for $ 9 — this price taking into account that food carts tend to be pricier but you generally don’t have to tip.

Be careful if you book them for an important event. We did, and they canceled when they got a better offer… reserve them at your own risk.

I had the Hemi yesterday and it was dissapointing– the bread was toasted perfectly and tasty but that’s were it ended. The pork had no flavor, needed salt and the Mac and cheese neded a sharp cheese it also had no flavor. Food was cooked well just lacked the OMG factor
Super bummed because I rarely eat this high fat kind of food so u was splurging for sure.

Come ready to eat grilled foods! I can only attest to the yumminess of their tat or tots with garlic and rosemary. They were so yummy.
