Day In The Life At My Food Truck Part 3 - Smokin' Joe's Pit BBQ

[@jasonbell3294]

The best bbq here in El Paso!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks so much Jason! Daniel Vaughn said the same thing. #blessed

[@edgarcardenas455]

This is in El Paso? what’s your location it would be an honor to try when visiting which we do every year!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

@edgarcardenas455 yes sir. 10150 Montana Ave 👍

[@stoopidspaceman8725]

These videos are great, thanks so much for sharing your experience with the rest of us! I'm going to be cooking my very first catering event for 55 people this weekend and I'm not gonna lie I'm pretty nervous, but your food truck videos have really helped to give me some insight on how to plan a cook with numerous menu items for a large number of people. Oh and by the way one of the things I'm going to be making is smoked salmon which I learned how to make from your video a few years back ;) It blows people's minds away everything I make it for them and it's still one of the best things I know how to make. Anyway just wanted to share my appreciation for your videos and the positive impact they've made on my life!

[@vladivostok47]

From someone who’s family and friends wants them to open a BBQ food truck in KS, thank you for helping me to show how much work it actually is! Keep up the great videos!

[@troyv8302]

Pretty awesome video Joe. Really appreciated seeing all the effort and hard work involved in running a food truck.

[@silvioholley]

I’m from Texas and honestly man I can eat chilli with or without beans! Add some leftover brisket and let it cook so more and it’s game over 👊🏽 you come a long way Joe been rocking with you since the beginning. Gonna have to check out your food truck bbq one day.

[@bobbicatton]

I would want to order everything on the menu! Great success, Joe👍😊

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you Bobbi!

[@naphtalinjuguna5228]

I love the fact that you doing this with your brother

[@jeffatgorbysgrill9480]

Love the behind the scenes look Joe!!

[@Becauseimme]

So proud of you Brotha.✊🏾 You ever thought about using a cold smoker to make your burger? Grab a tote and a smoker gun, using the wood profiles you use on your pit. Fill that sucka up with smoke close the tote and forget it in the fridge for four hours then flip them and and hit them again with smoke. Then stack them and hold them in the fridge. That way they can be made to order and it with help with your efficiency and it will be fresh.

[@KYSeahawks]

Pretty awesome and ironic video. Was going to attempt to cater some events and such but need to see the exact paperwork and such I need to do for my state inspiring stuff Joe. Everything looking good as well.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

You can do it!

[@jjmorgan6]

Thank you for documenting and sharing Joe, I am one of those people that aspire to cook for people and your knowledge and journey is a Godsend. Thanks again

[@trevorbeach9619]

I’m from Wyoming and watch your channel all the time, your bbq looks amazing . Hope to get down their one day to try it out.. keep up the delicious videos,

[@mikebowerstv]

I love these videos! I gotta find time to visit.

[@Casanovafff]

[@GM-vy1wy]

That was really cool to watch. I appreciate it, Joe!

[@dwaynewladyka577]

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you. 👍

[@savalascraftbarbecue]

Man I really enjoyed the food truck series, and yes these videos helped a lot. Thank you for taking the time to show us all this great content.

[@rmcarr448]

Everything looks wonderful!!

[@larrymangold1048]

That's awesome. You've come a long way since I first started watching your videos!

[@steventwiddy3402]

Man that is some great looking food

[@drousseau122]

Really appreciate what you’re doing!

[@ralphs88]

Good morning! I am one of those starting a bbq trailer. Love the videos

[@bbqlvr6137]

I foresee big things for your BBQ business. Texas Monthly listing……Expansion……maybe brick and mortar? You and the Bro are doing such a great job!!!! 👏

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you buddy! God willing I'll have a location soon. 👍

[@smokingtarheel3003]

Beans go into chili! I agree wholeheartedly. Hopefully, I'll get down there someday for some good food. I would definitely be a loyal customer if I was your area. Beautiful brisket slicing and excellent outro music too!

[@angryace4017]

We don't have decent BBQ in my area. I have been to a few comp bbq schools just for my own experience, but I have been encouraged by several ppl to start a food truck. It looks like a lot of work lol.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

It is a ton of work.

[@antoniojefferson4005]

Will you do more bbq food trailer videos please? Great content

[@ericousleyjr9119]

Great video Joe!!!! Nice to see you in action. Food looks delicious.

[@deanm4138]

Looks delicious Joe glad the hard work is paying off

[@bo3abed395]

Extremely helpful! Cannot appreciate enough the informative content, thanks a ton 👊

[@dennisjones6943]

I love this series Joe!

[@whiteoakcraftbbq]

These are the best videos. Hope you do this more

[@Trumpetmaster77]

Fantastic Joe, Can't wait to come up and eat some of that deliciousness! Soon!

[@brewster84067]

Dang. Impressive. You guys work your a&&es off to prepare this fantastic food. Thank you for sharing!

[@StevenCasselman]

Very information - I am looking to do this on a small scale and would like to see if you know a good warmer to use to transport from cooking area to another location to serve

[@davehein7466]

Dang! A good friend/coworker bought a Dodge 4x4 pickup from a guy in El Paso (shortly afte New Years). He asked me if I'd join him in a road trip, to go down there, buy it, and bring it back to Minnesota. I researched the 'road time', got more answers from him, and declined his offer. IF I had joined him, we would've dropped by for lunch!

[@805BBQJUNKIE]

Joe if this video was one hour long two hours three hours I would definitely watch the entire video man I love videos like this Garcias carnal

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you my bro. Hope you're doing well chingon. 🤘

[@Sheenasalesthriftytreasures]

Congratulations on your success this is a absolute amazing video

[@cajunsands]

good looking stuff Joe! love these videos

[@jt5747]

As a Californian, I say Texas chili has beans!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Heck yeah 🤘

[@holyunionbbq]

Thanks for sharing... Really helpful. What temp to you run your warmers at for the overnight holds?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

150° is what we hold the meats at. 👍

[@mikehappel4899]

Chili always has beans!

[@xanthippusofcarthage8655]

BBQ and BDUs… God bless America!

[@SleeperBBQ]

Your an inspiration Joe PS beans for me

[@mike1261]

Man, if I were EVER down your way, I'd be in your court for sure!!!

[@justinh.9279]

thanks for all your content; what does the toast platform cost you?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

I'm on a deal where I don't pay anything except 3.5% per transaction. 👍

[@xtreemej7]

I notice you cook ribs first. How long do you hold them in the warmer? Just not sure how far I could go with mine. Also, are the wrapped in anything or just uncovered with the glaze on? Thanks Joe, glad to see your truck doing so well!!

[@CrossbowMike]

You should do livestreams. Ive seen some videos on here and tiktok where like 5000 people are watching live, just crazy

[@BigOsBackyardBBQ]

Could you address how you go about holding your big meats until the next day? Do beef ribs hold as well as briskets and butts?

[@tigerjohnx]

Hey Joe, great content. Very informative and interesting. Wanted to thank you for making your videos despite being so busy. Also wanted to ask, are you and your brother both full time at the food truck? Just wondering if a truck is profitable with a partner. Thanks!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

My brother isn't my partner. I own the business and my brother is my pitmaster . We're only open 2 days per week. 👍

[@tigerjohnx]

@SmokinJoesPitBBQ hey thanks for the response. Do you consider both of you full time for opening 2 days a week?

[@brianroe5351]

Would love to see interviews with other truck owners. Question, how do you determine pricing for items? Profit seems hard to calculate when cook times are 14 hours.

[@cameronbatko]

Great video! This is a great series. How many briskets do you smoke for a typical busy day? Thanks!

[@roybalerio7969]

Great video Joe, I just started following. What temperature is the food warmer set at? I tried using the oven as a food warmer and I overcooked my brisket! LOL

[@vladivostok47]

Curious about this too. Trying to hold at 150 in my oven doesn’t work well. Way too big of temp swings when it cycles.

[@chuckhansen5325]

How are you smoking the chicken halves at 350° and your ribs and briskets at a lower temperature all on the same pit

[@dazgomez5949]

Where do you dump your water and about home much water you use on a busy day

[@zrx338]

I hope you have long term success. Been watching the channel since it was less than 5k subs. YOU CAN COOK and I cannot wait to hit your food truck the next time I am in EL Paso!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks so much Jeff. 👍

[@CFBSIMZ]

Curious what you pay for your spot? We need this in Georgia

[@reuben5570]

Cool video, thanks for sharing. If I was in your area I would check you out.

[@chrlstan]

So good i could eat it off the floor 🤤

[@keryobryan1450]

Does Creekstone offer bulk pricing for businesses?

[@eddiehoward4570]

I am from Texas no beans

[@orlandomartinez4031]

I’m sorry brother I’ve been watching your channel for a few months now and just realized I’m not subscribed , now I am … did you pre brine your turkey breast ?? Awesome videos bro

[@RawHeat100]

Northern Mexican Americans aka Chicanos/Tejano invented Chili!!! It even has a Spanish name and all ingredients are northern Mexican

[@Texas4x]

Beans in CHILI in TEXAS???? Joe, say it ain't SO!!! lol

[@Steve-cu1ye]

Cowboy wear boots😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 the only thing not big in texas is how tall Texas men are

[@braydenwhite5016]

How do you like the giant offset compared to your home setup with the Yoder YS?

[@braydenwhite5016]

By the way, food looks amazing!!! Great job on this venture Joe and wishing you the best moving forward

[@jerryrodriguez4412]

Hey Joe do y'all need an assistant,you can pay me in food.. Lavo los trastes..

[@BBQPITDOG]

The behind the scenes view is great Joe. I wish you and your crew all of the best! Should be a HOT, busy July 4th weekend for y;all!! Cheers Bud!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you for watching buddy. 👍

[@AINTEROL]

I highly appreciated seeing the third part. I can smell the brisket while you cut it. The side dishes look fantastic. Loyal customers become VIPs by all means. They are the foundation of any business. Great stuff, as always, Joe. I have learned a lot from your channel. Not just looking at mouthwatering creations but seriously getting deep, valuable know-how about spicing, timing, and preparing the BBQ.

[@robertfuentes7295]

Thanks Joe I’m thinking of opening a bbq trailer and learning a lot by watching your videos.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Nice. Good luck 👍

[@Mr.BillsBBQ]

You inspire me. Thank you for all your content.

[@TheMoneyMakingMentor]

Joe you need to write a book or get yourself a video course that you can sell.

[@brianlee6086]

Where are you located? I see it says El Paso, if so, please give a location.

[@CravingsWithCarlos]

Awesome upload brother. Thank you!!! About to build my trailer soon.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Nice bro! Good luck. 👍

[@DerbyBandit]

BEANS GO IN CHILI. Period!…great video!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Yeah buddy!🤘

[@95SLE]

Is the turkey breast both sides of the breasts taken off the bone as one piece? I realize you are probably able to purchase the turkey breast from a commercial source. Forgot to add, TY for the video. I enjoyed the content.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Yes it is both.

[@RGsFood]

This kind of stuff is super interesting. Even if you just had a camera off to the side getting footage during a rush without any commentary would be good also. Just for some random Vlog style videos. Good stuff Joe.🤘🤘

[@_blindside_]

Weird question I know, you mentioned the grey water tank, how do you empty throughout the day?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

We have a water caddy that hold about 40 gallons of waste water. We dump it into that and wheel it to the drain. 👍

[@_blindside_]

@SmokinJoesPitBBQ thank you. Planning out a food truck, just wondering about the little details.

[@ryangies4798]

Fascinating look into your business Joe! Everything looks incredible, really happy for your success. I’m looking into warmers for my business. Do you recommend the Vulcan? Can you give the make and model number for me to research?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

I've had really good luck with my Vulcan. Here you go. Vulcan VBP15ES-1E1ZN

Chili isn’t chili without beans.

You and I can officially be friends. 🤘

Great job again Joe! When I go to Los Cruces I will come eat your good looking food!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Stan👍

[@youdontknowjakbbq4658]

Great video Joe!! I was there and I loved your food & set up too! You are doing great!!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you buddy!🤘

[@mastery4living187]

YAS!!!! Texas chilli had beans, and some smarty pants came along with their disdain and changed it. I read a book about Sam Chisholm (The first black deputy of the "Indian Territories [many may know him as the Lone Ranger...I'll be politically correct]) and his love for Texas chilli and he mented the BEANS! Thanks Joe!

[@johnrawlings6610]

Great video, yes this was very helpful. Sending a thumbs up from Southern Maryland!

[@damoose1829]

That all looks Fantastic Joe. I wish I was near because I would be a loyal customer for sure. As a matter of fact I would probably drive you crazy!!. Unfortunately I have no BBQ trucks near my Home. I prefer a truck compared to a brick and mortar location. The closet Good Truck I found was on the way to cabin and is about 45 - 50 miles out. I should say a GOOD Tasting BBQ.. There are some closer but are not on par. They open 1-2 days Weekend and Mostly Dried out with a bunch of sauce on it to cover. They over cook the protein which tells me too Hot and Too fast. I tried to say something nice to advise and was told if I don't like. Don't Buy it. And now I do not buy it and make sure the word is out. Nice Customer service!!!!. Keep the videos coming Joe love em.👍👍👍✌✌✌

[@keithatkinson7649]

I like watching the food truck Joe. It's fantastic that you've been able to get established like this in so short a time.

[@PAPATexas]

No Beans! Good stuff Joe!

[@RawHeat100]

The first cowboys were Natives from Texas sad how Tejano/Chicanos don't even know their history and how we fought and defeated southern Mexico to gain our independence and identity

[@IzzyEatz]

What’s the ratio simple syrup to bbq sauce for the glaze? 50/50???? Mix?

[@Anthony-q4u5b]

Im starting a food trailer in Florida. I cook about everything, but I was thinking about doing BBQ first but then i was thinking about faster things like nachos and burgers and things like that. Should I stick with faster food our BBQ?

[@dennisschickling2249]

Nice Video. Hope that you have a GREAT 4th of July. #STAYSAFE #PHILLYPHILLY 🇺🇸

[@johnfreisen661]

First time to see your video, friend sent it to me from Florida. I didn't even know you are right here in east El Paso. Looks awesome. The wife and I will be there Friday.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Nice! See y'all soon. 👍

[@johnfreisen661]

We ate there on Sat evening. Bought alot Turkey, Brisket, Pulled pork, Cornbread(needs alot of butter). Had a family dinner of 9. WAS AWESOME! Will be back soon.@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

@johnfreisen661 thank you so much!

[@markmccaleb4038]

Wow, that looks like a lot of fun but also work! I can't wait until we can get over there. We have a softball tournament July 28-30 for our granddaughter in Las Cruces so maybe then if not before.

[@Avasbarbecue]

Hello from San Antonio, love the food truck series as I am looking at going a similar path soon. Maybe ask what pos system you are using to take payments? Thank you and be well.

[@washedout8055]

I'm only here because of the girl in the thumbnail was thick. Very disappointed that she was never given 5 min of fame.

[@fallen-void]

You always give great content. Very helpful. How many quarts are your Vevor food warmer? Great product thanks for sharing

[@SinisterMD]

You said the ribs are on and then showed pots of boiling water. For a second I thought you were just messing with us. :) Looks great!! Even when I try to do just two pork butts at the same time they're not necessarily done at the same time. How do you get so many different things off when they're done?
