Tailgaters has been on the list for quite some time, finally made it out on a Friday for lunch. As other reviewer's have commented, it is off the beaten path for a bit (perfect for a BBQ food truck!), but essentially in the shadow of downtown Weatherford. As with any new BBQ place I try, I veer toward any menu option that allows me to try nearly all the meats and here, it was The Tailgater combo where you can choose 3 meats and 2 sides. On to the meats! The Brisket: we asked for cuts from the flat and the point and both were quite good. Moderate smokiness with heavy pepper rub and a light bark made this a solid brisket. The Ribs: similar to the brisket with the heavy pepper rub, also pretty delicious. I would rate this a bit higher than the brisket in terms of what they do best. Overall a solid rib - tasty and smoky, although just short of that perfect tenderness where you bite in and the meat doesn't fight you. The Sausage: the jalapeno-cheddar sausage was probably my favorite here. The casing had a nice pop to it once you bit in and you were greeted with a mild jalapeno heat and an amazing cheesy flavor that may make this one of my favorite links in the area. Very few places get the combination of flavor and heat right on the JC sausages and Tailgaters has done that here. One note - they do have a covered seating area, but many people were getting take out. All in all, some great BBQ here and I was quite happy we made it out to try out such a cool local spot like Tailgaters. We plan to visit again to try out more of their tasty smoked meats and you should as well. read more

Tailgaters BBQ - The tailgater combo - sausage, ribs, brisket, street corn, and Mac n cheese - Food Trucks Near Me - Weatherford, Texas

This food truck is off the beaten path a little bit in the Weatherford area heading towards Peaster. I stopped in on a Friday with a buddy and it is truly no frills but had a decent amount in of activity given its location. We ordered the tailgater which is a 3 meat, 2 sides combo and went with brisket (lean and moist), ribs, and jalapeno sausage for the meats and street corn and mac n cheese for the sides. Brisket had a decent bark and was flavorful, and the ribs had a nice rub on them and were flavorful as well but were not the fall off the bone tender I expect from Texas bbq joints. Decent ribs, but nothing special. Jalapeño sausage was good, not too overpowering with the jalapeno flavor so this one is a must try. The Mac n cheese is pretty standard, nice and creamy, it's a good side. I wasn't wild about the street corn, so would opt for a different side next time. read more

I can't pick a favorite, the ribs, brisket, chicken, Mac & cheese, street corn, peach cobbler, banana pudding is all unreal. We had them for an event recently and I looked forward to their food for weeks. Basically, go eat their bbq you will not regret it. read more
