    sauce was sweet smoky but plain ribs were cooked properly sides balanced the dish but overall just fine

    Street chicken, pork, cheesy potatoes and beans for $15! All of it is so juicy and tasty!

    Smoke & Ash in Acheson may not look like much but my GAWD it is the BEST BBQ I have had!!! All this for $15!! They get line ups around the block and I totally get it! If you like meat-eat here!! Enough said. Seriously. You need to go here!

    Nestled in the industrial park of Acheson is this little gem with great food and even nicer people. A food truck in the summer, they opened this restaurant space in October and I'm sad I didn't know about it until now. Plenty of parking and lots of seating, or you can also order to go. No delivery. Yet. Run by the nicest couple (think of it like going to your aunt and uncle's house, they're so friendly); they told us that everything is made in-house save for a spice on their pizza. Homemade BBQ sauces, ketchup and an addictive honey mustard on top of the BBQ meats and sides. So, let's talk about the food itself. I'm not a brisket fan normally, and this was a mighty fine brisket. Tender, well seasoned and we were asked if we wanted a cut of lean or fatty. Both are good options. Ribs were fabulous and sliced off the rack as you order. Tender without being too soft, with just the right amount of bite. There was also chicken that looked moist and juicy, and sliced pork as well. The menu said sausage, but we didn't see any on the night we came. As for sides, fresh made buns looked delicious. There was also baked beans (flavourful and not too mushy), potato salad, coleslaw, delicious mac and cheese, fluff salad (a marshmallow concoction that I'm assured is a great palate cleanser), cheesy potato hash and corn that was tossed with cream cheese and spices (life changing - why haven't I had cheese in my corn before??). They're open later on Thursday and Friday nights and are testing out an all you can eat option for $20 (that's cheap!!), including unlimited canned pop or bottled water. There's a take out option of $15 as well. It's fantastic value for what you're getting and the quality of the food. Highly recommended and encourage the support of local businesses.

    Worth the drive!

    Updating this review from 8 months ago... bumping this from a 4 star to a 5 star rating. Have ate here many times now, and it is simply delicious every damn time. This is hands down the best BBQ you will find outside of the southern US. Had the ribs, chicken and brisket today for lunch (skipped the sides... all meat) and just can't say enough. Find this place and eat here... we have top notch BBQ in our back yard, you just have to find it!

    2 meat platter- beef brisket and pork ribs with Mac and cheese and coleslaw.
    Dee L.

    I had been waiting a long time to try this place and I'm glad I finally did! Tucked away in a little plaza in Acheson this place is a hidden gem. I ordered the 2 meat platter and it comes with two sides. I got beef brisket and pork ribs for my meat: the brisket was tender and juicy and had a nice ripple of fat coursing through it (I like a little fat on my meat!) and the pork ribs were fall off the bone tender. The only thing I can say is that I normally like mine a bit saucier so I'll have to ask for more sauce next time. For my sides I got Mac and Cheese and coleslaw. The Mac and cheese was killer, nice crispy cheesy top to it as well; the coleslaw reminded me of the ones I used to have at family functions, crispy and creamy with little flecks of celery seeds mixed in there. There was a bit of a line up when I went as it was around noon but the food came out quickly and the staff was friendly despite being busy- which is one of the reasons I liked this place so much. I'm already planning my next visit! Highly recommend.

    Heard about this place from a friend of my son. We showed up on the first Saturday with an extra to our reservation and no problem. We tried everything from the prime rib to the fluff salad. The owner and his family were very attentive making sure all was good and keeping us fed. The brisket did melt in our mouths, prime rib was one of the best, really enjoyed the garlic fries, mac and cheese and the fluff salad. The owners treated us as if we were the only ones there. Would recommend this to anyone who enjoys good food.

    On the streets since 2011, Drift is pretty much one of Edmonton's OG food trucks. They were one of…read morethe first on the scene when food trucks really started to become a "thing." The best part? After a decade they're still probably the best food truck in the city. VUE Weekly named them #1 Best Food Truck 2018 and the show Eat St. featured them in season four. Plus they've been on the Worldwide Faves list on this website this entire time. Locals know that this is the truck that you want - especially for their legendary pork belly sandwich. (If they ever took it off of the menu I think the planet might implode? It's science.) The best way to figure out where Drift is going to be on any given day is to check their website where they've got an up-to-date calendar of their whereabouts. The truck shuts down for the winter so it's always exciting when the end of April rolls around and you know that you're going to be able to start stalking them again. I went to find the truck on the seasons opening of the 124 Grand Market in Westmount, a wonderful farmers' market. Drift does sometimes sell out, so if there's something in particular that you want to eat from them, I'd recommend arriving early. (This will also help you to avoid waiting in a giant lineup.) It's always exciting when the turquoise-painted truck comes into view. These days, the menu on offer is usually pretty standard. They've got four different sandwiches - all amazing. (Although back in the day they used to sometimes do a duck confit sandwich that you don't see anymore and I'd love to see that one make a glorious return!) They've also got some sides that are very good as well. You know the drill, you approach the truck window to make your order with the friendly people inside, then wait a few minutes until they call your name and hand you a brown paper bag filled with goodness. And they do take cards as payment these days. To drink they usually have interesting local canned beverages and they're often different from one visit to the next. I spotted the Troubled Monk Ginger Ale Soda (from Red Deer) and decided to give it a try. This craft ginger ale was quite possibly the best ginger ale that I've ever tasted. The flavour was so real! You could tell that it's made with real ginger but it also had a very unique and wonderful molasses flavour that I really enjoyed. If you see this soda around you should definitely grab some! Next, I moved in on the Sides. We were going to have a true Drift feast on this day! There were four different items to choose from and I had to try the Poutine (Made with beef gravy & fresh cheese curds - $6.50) because I think that this might be something a bit new that they're doing. First of all, their hand-cut fries are already super famous and they season them with "Drift spice" which involves cumin, fennel, mustard seed and chili. (They also do their own housemade ketchup made with cardamom and ginger, which is excellent.) So the fries alone are already something special... But then they went and turned them into a poutine. This very well may be the best poutine happening in Edmonton right now. I'm super picky about poutine (as you may already know) and this one crushes it on every level. The fries are ultra crispy and golden (likely double fried) and dusted in their delicious seasoning. The cheese curds were fresh and squeaky, piled on high. And the gravy was hot and savoury. THIS is the poutine that Edmonton needs to know about. I also ordered the Broccoli Salad (Broccoli, apple, carrot, raisin & herb aioli - $4.75), because health! Loved this little salad. This is a great way to add something a bit more fresh to your Drift meal and I loved the bright combination of veggies and fruit. The broccoli was crunchy and the apple and raisin gave it a nice sweetness. You really can't go wrong with this salad and you'll feel like you ate vegetables. And then it's sandwich time. The Pork Belly Sandwich (Chili mayo, pickled carrot & daikon, fresh cilantro - $9.00) is truly of Edmonton legend and I doubt that I'll ever be able to get myself to order anything else. This sandwich is everything. I dove in immediately and reveled in the symphony of flavours. First and foremost is the pork belly that has taken on an incredible caramelized glaze which gives it a bit of a crunch. It's sliced thin and the fat is rendered down perfectly. Next, the pickled vegetables and cilantro give the sandwich a definite Vietnamese vibe, and the slight kick from the chili mayo is the perfect way to round everything out. The bun reminds me of the soft and crusty Portuguese type. It's a perfect sandwich. Incredibly delicious and consistently amazing for a whole decade, this sandwich must never, never go away. I love Drift. They're a major part of the culinary tapestry in this city and they've certainly played a huge roll in making the food truck scene everything that it is today. They've really cracked the code by offering a small handful of items on their m

The owner/operator runs this truck not only to make some extra money during the summer festival/farmers market circuit, but also because she loves to cook and has a passion for food.

    Hot Mess is another food truck in Leduc. I went and checked them out for lunch the other day…read more The food here is pretty diverse, and despite the name not all of it is hot. They have breakfast and lunch menu. The red velvet pancakes with bourbon cream sauce sounded pretty delicious, but I went ahead and ordered lunch. I got the spicy shrimp noodle salad, which was delicious. Noodles, fresh veggies, mango slices, with shrimp and a light spicy vinaigrette. For $8 it was a filling and delicious lunch. My parents ended up going to Hot Mess that same day, and my dad said he liked the chorizo burger (although he said it wasn't very spicy), and my mom had the pulled pork sandwich, which she said you could really taste that it had been smoked (not just bbq sauce). The food here is a bit of a mess, even my noodle salad was messy. The food is pretty varied, but what I had was good and I wouldn't hesitate to try something else from Hot Mess again.

    Homemade, fresh, and not involving burgers or buns? Sign me up! I'm not a lover of maise taco…read moreshells but the ones coming out of this food truck are sooo tasty. Best of all they're stuffed with goodness for a reasonable price. My new favourite food truck! The al Pastor tacos are great, love the roasted pineapple, it's a little tropical vacation reminder with each bite. Add some hot sauce and it's fantastic, spicy salty sweet porky goodness. Highly recommended. The barbacoa tacos were less enjoyable. The meat is less flavourful and has a dry texture even with sauce added. Strangely it was also too much for the taco to handle, tearing through the shell quickly for all three. It could use a little punch, some extra veg or something, it was bland to me. The tostadas are famous they say, and now I know why! You'll need some forks and lots of napkins, it's a messy meal, but so worth it. The three tostadas come loaded with meat (chicken), beans, feta and lots of fresh veg for $10. Best deal and meal on the menu in my opinion. If you're bored of basic food truck fare involving combinations of burgers, buns, hotdogs and fries, Calle Mexico is there for you. I can't wait to try their restaurant!

Well... they do them here.... but crispier and more of a punch of flavor. I decided to get the whiskey river BBQ burger. It's generally a standard for me in my choices. Taking the first bite I was amazed at the perfection of the bacon. Not to hard and not to soft making it the best to mix in with the rest of my bite. The buns are about as soft as they can be without being under baked. When you take a bite it has already soaked up some of the BBQ sauce making it even more melt in your mouth then it already does. If you can pick a favorite burger spot that you know of not only will this place beat it, but you will easily see how a burger from here will outclass anything else on your mind. Real food, real people, real good time. I look forward to seeing what else and where they will be in Edmonton this year
