Food Truck Fare
Grab & Go Meats, Eats & Treats
There's nothing like a beautiful summer night, good food and good company. At the Beast & Bird Food Truck, you're always met with a smile, good music and great fellow foodies! We feature fan favorite staples like pulled pork, sliced brisket, coleslaw, cornbread and our to-die-for mac & cheese, along with various custom pop-up menu items throughout the season.
​
Our home base, where we serve weekly, is in Vinton, Iowa, but we travel frequently to neighboring towns and cities. We love providing food truck service for local events!

HAND SELECTED, SLOW SMOKED TO PERFECTION
We take no shortcuts when it comes to creating the perfectly finished meat entree. Whether it's for food-truck service or a private event, every piece of meat is carefully selected and inspected to ensure only the highest quality of meats make it to our smoker.
All cuts of meat are treated to a custom blend of flavor-enhancing seasonings and rubs. Pair the perfectly prepared meat with one of our craft sauces for the mouth-watering meats we're known for.

His friends and family are eager to volunteer as B&B guinea pigs in his test kitchen.
