Smoked meat in a food truck

A silver trailer parked on the Southbank for the summer, Pitt's all-American-ness includes 12hr-smoked ribs, pulled pork, and longhorn brisket, plus sides like root beer-soaked beans. They'll also wet your whistle with rum punches, hard lemonades, Kernel ale & Barrow Hill cider, and the "pickleback": Pikesville rye chased by pickle brine (which actually halts nausea, a move popularized by NYC bars Bushwick Country Club and Whiskey Town), plus a cup of crackling -- or, why the average American Southerner finds himself winded from tossing around a pigskin.
