    Carolina fries
    Helena W.

    This was pretty tasty! I ordered the Carolina Fries and they were topped nicely with pork, coleslaw, pimento cheese, and BBQ sauce. The fries were really tasty and crispy, they were kind of coated in a breading and fried. The pork was also really good - my only complaint is that I wish there was more of it as there wasn't much. The jalapeno pimento wasn't as spicy at I wanted it to be; it kind of just added a nice creaminess to the meal but not really any flavor. The coleslaw was fantastic and not too liquidy for the fries. I'd definitely recommend this food truck. Like most food trucks it is a little more expensive than I think they should be but at least the drinks are cheap. I might try the sandwich and sweet potato fries if they ever come back to my work but $13 is a bit too much for that imo so might just stick with the fries!

    Smoked BBQ sandwich with slaw & butt sauce, and a smoked chicken wing
    Ashley M.

    The Humble Pig took the cake at the most recent Durham food truck rodeo! After an hour and a half of stumbling around the park like hungry zombies, we hit this place up as our third stop! As we inched ever closer to the order window, items started to disappear off of the already vacant chalkboard menu -- with the vacancy of our much anticipated brisket and sweet potato fries. We ended up ordering a Smoked Chicken Wing and NC Pulled Pork Sandwich. You might be thinking "WTF" with the attached $2.50 price tag for the chicken wing... but let me tell you, it is WELL worth it. It's a whole wing (3 joints, wingette and drumette), smoked to tender perfection. It melted in my mouth! As for the sandwich, the smoked, shredded pork was squeezed between two soft, pretzel-like kaiser buns with a dollop of slaw on top. We added a heavy drizzle of "Kickin' Butt" spicy, sweet, tomato-based sauce to finish it off. By far, this is the best BBQ I've ever had in my life! Tender, smoky, shred-dy... a delightful marriage of flavors. This heavenly BBQ managed to soothe my 5-year-long, sorrowful cravings for the firehouse, smoked bbq from my hometown. OH MY DAYUM -- this is how BBQ is supposed to BE! Time-wise, it was a 15min wait to get to the ordering window and a 10 minute wait to get to the food (this was after the big rush) -- but the food is WELL worth your time. Once you taste this smoked BBQ, you will be singing sweet Southern praises to the soul-food gods. Dayum, dayum, dayum!!!!

    barbecue taco, display nicely in front of their sauces

    Oh wow! Eating at The Humble Pig was a humbling experience! especially because they were parking so close to Humble Pie last night! I've seen this truck about 2-3 in the past month whenever I leave Tasty Beverage Co. Another one of their usual parking spot is on Cabarrus St in front of Deep South The Bar. Even before I see the smiling face greeting me I already smelled the deliciousness. Wasting no time, I quickly ordered a barbecue taco, while checking in on Yelp. That's right, be sure to check in here to get your complimentary dessert. The Pumpkin Pie flavor was awesome. The delicious pulled pork barbecue blended well with the sweet slaw, and everything is served on a deep fried flour tortilla. You can make this even better, topping your pork with one of their signature sauces. You definitely want to try Kickin' Butt Sauce or that tangy mustard sauce; but if you just want to be a BIG BABY and whine about the spiciness, then you can certainly use the Butt Sauce, and I will just silently mocking you behind your back. P.S. Recently I was tipped Humble Pig also deliver to tailgating spots and holiday parties! They'll smoke your Thanksgiving turkey for you!! How about that for a full service truck.

    My favorite of the barbecue trucks I've tried. They do a lot of things well... cute trailer, good execution, really friendly folks, and --amazingly, considering it's a food truck-- nice presentation! I got the brisket sandwich, and topped it with the Kick Butt sauce. The meat was very tender, and the sauce gave it some zip. We also utilized the Yelp check-in offer and got a complimentary dessert -- they had two, and I opted for the seasonal pumpkin cream pie, which was a cup with a swirl of pumpkin-y mousse and whipped cream atop crushed crust. Easy to eat street food, yet still captured the essence of a pumpkin pie; I thoroughly enjoyed it! Keep tabs on this tasty truck at @thehumblepig.

    Ate here for lunch since the food truck was at the frontier Friday food truck rodeo location. I ordered the carolina fries. The details said crispy fries and tbh i was hesitant because often when shops say that, the fries come out mediocre but I was pleasantly surprised when the fries were super crispy, hot and well seasoned. The toppings included pulled pork, pimento cheese, slaw, and honey mustard. The price was $12+tax&tip. I am a big guy and this completely filled me up. My +group sat at a nearby picnic table. The line was pretty long but I only waited about 10 mins to get my food!

    Pulled pork

    Humble Pig is by far the best food truck rolling around the Triangle. We hit it up during the DFTR and we were blown away by the quality of their food. By the time we placed out order, a majority of their items were cleared from the board, having run out. Their staple pulled pork sandwich and full chicken wing were still available though and we ordered what we could to sample as much as possible. We were praying for them to still have their sweet potato waffle fries by the time they got to us, but a couple chumps ahead of us ended up getting the last order. It was the first time I ever considered pulling a waffle fry heist, but security was pretty tight that day. The pulled pork sandwich was one of the best I have tried, and this is includes the dozens of restaurants I've tried looking for the best real deal Carolina Q. The bun held everything together so well, it was almost like a hybrid keiser-pretzel roll. I went with the Butt Kicking sauce and it was tangy with a bit of zip, but nothing out of control. The pork was juicy and melded the sauce and slaw together perfectly. The full smoked wing was aesthetically horrifying to some, but once you sat down and went to work with both hands, you'll find the chicken is super tender and jammed with smokey richness. For $2.5 per wing, I'd be happy ordering a couple as a snack with a cold beer. Next time, I look forward to trying their brisket sandwich and sweet potato fries in the future, whether I have to mug someone for them or not.

    I got the opportunity to sample the delicious pork that is Humble Pig at a company sponsored picnic and their Carolina fries were so tasty! The fries were smothered in coleslaw, pork and and pimiento cheeses. I have heard so many great things about this food truck and they are very active at food truck rodeos, brewing events and serve lunches at corporate locations. Thank you for coming to our event and I highly recommend checking them out the next time you see them.

    Pulled pork sandwich, sweet potato waffle fries and coleslaw

    I've been on the hunt for good smoked wings lately, and Humble Pig was suggested as a strong contender for the best ones in town...so when I saw that they'd be at the Durham Food Truck Rodeo, I had to give them a shot. I started out with the smoked wings, which were very tasty and had a crispy skin. The only thing that bothered me was that the chicken seemed to be really greasy. Overall, though, the taste was on point. Then I tried the pulled pork sandwich with sweet potato fries. Unfortunately, the pulled pork left a lot to be desired. Eating the sandwich felt like lots of chewing with no taste to show for it. The sweet potato fries were really good- they tasted like they'd just come out of the fryer. I'd totally get those again, but I'll leave the pulled pork for someone else.

    The truck... Park outside fortnight brewery
    Judy L.

    Beware the Yelp address, find this place, it's worth it!!!! The listed address was wrong, but we called and found out the food truck was at the Fortnight Brewery. It's was cold, it was windy, it was Soooo worth it. I asked what was good for first times, and was given a nice sample of the pulled pork and the brisket. Both are delicious, but the brisket was a bit fatty. I opted for the pulled pork dinner with sweet fries and coleslaw with fennel. The meat was moist and was very delicious by itself. I tried all the sauces, butt, sweet butt, and the eastern Carolina vinegar. All were great, but if fixed to choose is pick the can't vinegar. The fries were crispy on the outside, and hot and cooked perfectly on the inside. Not like some places with too much mush, or too chewy. I can't wait to try to make the slaw with developing. My point minor gripe is that it was too runny for my tastes. Loved that they were set up at the brewery! I'm only going to be here a month but I will be back again for sure!

    Beef brisket plate with fries and coleslaw
    Mark S.

    My coworkers decided to hit up the RTP food truck rodeo and The Humble Pig caught my eye. I'm always down for exploring new BBQ places. My coworker got the Beef Brisket plate with 2 sides and so did I. First impression was that $13 for lunch was a bit much. We later found out that it was $10 for the brisket and slaw and $13 for that and fries. So basically, we just paid $3 for fries. I'm thinking this better be some amazing fries. The Food: Beef brisket was actually quite tasty. The meat was tender and had a nice smokey flavor. I tried it with the butt sauce which had the right amount of sweetness to it. The fries were good, but did not live up to the extra $3. The Service: The guy taking our order had an attitude when I asked a question. That itself makes me not want to come back. Overall, this is an OK place but there are better places out there for sure.

Took them almost half an hour to prepare my gyro, after they said it would take 10-15 minutes. I think they were prioritizing pickup orders from DoorDash which I guess I understand, but was a tad frustrating given it was night, cold outside, and there was otherwise no apparent rush.
