Sizzling Wagon

The Sizzling Wagon came to our house for a graduation party this past weekend. They were on time, very friendly, easy to work with, made our graduates feel special with their sign and they served the best food. Tom was very responsive during our planning phase before the party. People that attended our party are still raving about the excellent sandwiches and the to die for onion rings. Thank you!

I’m confused. .. Sizzling Wagon has been outside my work off and on for about 8 weeks. I’d catch them near the capital earlier in the year, but having them at my work — I’m losing weight. Go figure. You’d think brisket every few days would cause weight gain. But I think I’m onto something. .. eat SW brisket and everything else pales in comparison so you maybe eat less in the long run!
Seriously, their brisket is to-​die-​for and the sizzling burger is a nice diversion when they run out of brisket (next time, «run, don’t walk» is the order of the day). The brisket gets a nice char of meat candy on it from the grill. With the sauce, and slaw, I recommend finding a way to drip onto the fries. You’ll want every drop The fries are good, but let’s get serious. .. this is about meat.
The sizzling burger is my once in a while selection, usually when the brisket is gone. Nicely done with toppings that sound like it might be too hot, but the flavors work well together with their sauce, onion rings, and pickled jalapenos being held together under melted cheese.
Lot’s of people ordering the fish so it must be good, but the closest I’ve come to the fish offerings was a bite (maybe two) of a shrimp po’ boy that my coworker had and couldn’t finish. Definitely delish, but good brisket isn’t always easy to find.
Average prices for a food truck but I’m a big eater, so the larger than average serving size makes this a good value for me. Seriously considering these friendly guys for a party or something.

I enjoy food trucks, so when I had a free lunch hour I recently went downtown St. Paul to check out the Sizzling Wagon.
I really liked the variety on their menu. Lots of tasty options. I ordered the Chicken Philly with fries. It was fantastic. One of the best philly sandwiches I have ever eaten. Very tasty and plenty of food in the basket. The food was hot, fresh, and good.
The staff was friendly. They hustled to get the food out as fast as possible. They had a long line, so the wait was just over 5 minutes.
I highly recommend the Sizzling Wagon.

I see this food truck parked on Robert Street in West St. Paul all the time but I had no idea they were actually up and running.
I happened to sneak off to a work event because I heard food trucks were going to be there (I’m an awesome employee) and this baby was sitting in the prime «1^st spot» location. After checking out what the others had to offer, I settled on Sizzling Wagon because of the hot mess I imagined the pulled pork sandwich was going to be. I ordered the sandwich with cole slaw on top and a side of fries which rounded out to an even and reasonable $ 8. The guy who took my order was very nice and had dreamy eyes… pretty bastard.
After about a 5 minute wait, and this is with a steady line, I got my sandwich with a smile and headed off to max out.
It was nicely loaded with pork and had a generous portion of slaw. The slaw itself was average and the sauce on the pork had a smoky vinegar base but they blended well and made this sandwich a success. The meat seemed a little dry but has a nice crisp on the edges from throwing it on the grill. The fries were not spectacular but to be fair, I never eat the fries and they automatically came with my order.
They had other food options that were appealing such as The Brisket sandwich, cheeseburger, Chicken philly and whatever a Sizzling Burger is. They also had a few baskets which came with fries and slaw. They were basic; shrimp, fish (I believe he said it was fried cod), or beef dog. Everything was priced fairly.
I know if I see Sizzling Wagon hanging around somewhere I’ll be getting my hungry ass in line. Let’s get these guys a reputation on here!
