Feast from SD's 8 finest food trucks

Some people like to approach food trucks stalker-style and hunt down their favorites, while others are too hungry to bother with just one, waiting until they gather en masse at a festival. Still others just happen to stumble upon one (or into one) coming out of the bar to get the late-night grease they hadn't even realized they needed. Whatever your style, here are eight can’t-miss trucks there to help your physique begin to resemble one.

Dish to Get: Making their own gourmet sausages from only the freshest meats, Mastiff Sausage Company is the work of two Encinitas natives cooking up (thankfully non Mastiff-based) sausage-centered dishes all over town, like Beer Bratwurst with pork topped with caramelized onions, crispy bacon, and homemade whole grain mustard.

Dish to Get: This is San Diego’s first Paleo-friendly food truck (for your caveman friends), serving only locally sourced meats and organic fruits and vegetables in their list of sandos.

Stuffed!
Where to Find It: The truck roams all over Downtown locales like Horton Square, or hits breweries like Ballast Point and Societe. Track them on Twitter.

They also have “other stuff”, like endless variations of mac n’ cheese. Pick either a traditional or spicy sauce and any combination of six different add-ins, like fried onion straws and peppered smoked bacon. Finish off the meal with their fried Oreos, if you can.
