EDDIE WRIGHT BBQ
A born and raised Jacksonian and veteran, Eddie Wright keeps his mobile pits burning and creativity ablaze with Eddie Wright BBQ. Fans are head over heels for his fall-off-the-bone favorites like Lemon Pepper Rib Tips, smoked turkey legs, and smoked Rotel. With accolades from the Atlanta Food & Wine Festival and a guest judge spot at Taste of Mississippi, his menu is a must for barbeque lovers in The City With Soul. Catch where he's at on social media.
TAQUERIA LA REATA
Missed Taco Tuesday? Don't panic. Taqueria La Reata serves up delicious Mexican fare that’s perfect on any day of the week.

Taqueria La Reata moves all around the metro area, but when in Jackson, you can usually find them on I-55 North Frontage Road next to C Spire at Deville Plaza.

POPPY PIES
Grab a slice of Italy at Poppy Pies, Jackson's first family-owned mobile pizza booth that serves authentic Neapolitan-style pizza.

HOG HEAVEN BBQ
Dubbed “the best little BBQ store you always heard about” by locals, this food truck is smoking premium St. Louis-style ribs, pulled pork and other classics that will satisfy any BBQ lover. Diners can choose from a Sandwich Box with their choice of pulled pork or chicken (plus a side), smothered BBQ nachos, ribs, sausage dogs, and more. Follow their eatery on social media.
CHUNKY DUNKS
Food trucks aren’t just for savory options; Chunky Dunks Sweets Truck is the perfect choice when you’ve got a sweet tooth. Enjoy treats like ice cream nachos, hot fudge sundaes, ice cream sandwiches, brownie a la mode, classic ice cream scoops, and a creation dubbed “Cool Moon” – a moon pie with ice cream. Though Chunky Dunks focuses heavily on private events and neighborhood visits, you can also find the truck in downtown Jackson during Greater Jackson Arts Council’s Food Truck Fridays.
