Fueling Richmond’s Economy—One Food Truck at a Time
Booking a food truck for your Richmond studio shoot isn’t just the fastest way to feed a hungry crew—it’s a direct investment in the River City’s small-business community. Nearly every truck we partner with is a family-run operation based right here in RVA, from a husband-and-wife team smoking pork in Northside to an alum of VCU’s arts program slinging bao out of a hand-painted rig.
Because these mobile kitchens prep everything on board, they use a fraction of the electricity and water demanded by traditional drop-off catering. Fewer chafing dishes means less single-use fuel canisters, and cook-to-order service virtually eliminates food waste—perfect for “green set” mandates on larger productions filming in Richmond.
Bottom line: every time you roll a food truck onto your Manchester backlot or Scott’s Addition warehouse set, you’re boosting Richmond’s local economy, shrinking your carbon footprint, and serving plates your cast and crew will rave about.

The brisket was a little dry. Still good but I did use more bbq sauce than I usually do on a sandwich.
