Here's the deal...I really adore food trucks and Red's sports a super suped up food truck chock full of barbecued goods. Chicken, ribs and, of course, pulled pork. I stopped by Red's for a quick lunch Uptown and here's how it went down...
The order taker were so kind and welcoming to anyone who meanders up to their spot. I ordered a barbecue sandwich and upon recommendation from the order taker I got half sweet and half mild sauce on the sammie and a lemonade. Minutes later and $6.20 something less in my pocket I grabbed a bench and dug in.
The theme of Red's must be sweet all over - sweet staff, sweet barbecue and sweet lemonade. While the effort is there, the meal just didn't thrill me overall. The pork was nice and tender but the sauce was so sweet it almost gave me a toothache. Next time I'll go with the vinegar base or the hot version. And the lemonade - diabetics please be aware. I like straight up sweet yet tart lemonade, but I could hardly drink this concoction. Water next time.
I definitely suggest giving Red's a try, just be aware that sweetness oozes out of just about everything!
