For the Month of September, The 512 Truck will be at Valley View Park in the Stoney Creek Subdivision serving afterschool snack, opening at 230 and closing at 7. If your child is anything like mine, within the first 5 minutes of getting out of school, the words, “I’m hungry” come forth. Well, we’re trying out a new spot and a new concept in the food trucking, providing a healthy and hearty afternoon snack with our 7 cheese Mac bake, pulled pork sandwiches, a small bowl of our Texas Red Chili, or put it the chili over Fritos for an awesome Frito Pie. Its got a little kick to it, but my daughter loves the chili on her Mac when she’s working on the trailer with us.
On a personal note, My Mother-in-law, before she passed away in May of 2023, she was died of cancer, but before that happened, she wanted to make sure that Rete and I were taken care of. Rete proposed that we start a food truck and help make our own security. She loved the idea and with the agreement of my Father-in-law, decided to fund our dream of having a food truck. Frankie, my Mother-in-law, had spent her life working as a teacher in the Austin Independent School District. It was something that she and I were able to connect over when I became a high school teacher. It is in the memory of her and to honor her dedication as a teacher of 20+ years of service, We will be donating 10% of our revenue to Deer Creek Middle School for all Tuesdays in the month of September. We are open to and hoping to extend the fundraiser till the end of the school year, if there is a demand for the best damn afterschool snack you could possibly get your hands on…
