Fluffy buns and fist bumps at Slidin' Thru's first restaurant (without wheels)
20.05.12
Fans of the original Slidin’ Thru truck and it’s HQ (the “truck without wheels”) will be happy to see “window love” intact in the drive-thru and familiar sandwiches and sides on the menu. On a flash-charred bun brushed with balsamic reduction, the Captain’s Order stacks beef, tomato, arugula, bacon, feta and sautéed onions for highbrow flavor with lowbrow charm. Cooked for 10 hours in its own juices and a little spice, the succulent meat on the Pulled Porky is embellished only with caramelized jalapeños and Sweet Baby Ray’s, though Guerrero said part of the 10-year plan is to create and sell signature sauces. And the Yaya will leave you shamelessly licking tzatziki off your fingers and rescuing lost chunks of feta from your lap.
The Barby Fries (make that all of the selections on the Super Fry menu) are everything you love about excess—smothered in melted cheddar, smoky bacon, tangy caramelized jalapeños, crispy onion straws and BBQ sauce, with a pocket of tasty, naked fries underneath. Try them with a brand new Chicky Boom or a Buffalo Soldier, better known as the Mystery Slider (a new mystery flavor is in the works).
