Duck Bacon Frites!

Mary : March 27, 2012 4:17 am : Shortstop Blog

So starting on Wednesday we will have a new special: Duck Bacon Frites! The main feature of the dish is obviously the freshly made duck breast bacon, but it will be accompanied by goat cheese crumbles and a cherry demi-glace. Definitely not your grand daddy’s BBQ! But hey, if I can smoke it, I’ll serve it!

My New Favorite Sandwich

Mary : March 12, 2012 6:27 pm : Shortstop Blog

I know it might seem strange considering how we continually surround ourselves with the amazingness that is pork, beef, duck etc…But my new favorite sandwich is most definitely the Grilled Chicken Sandwich. A super juicy chipotle-garlic marinated chicken breast on the great Brioche Rolls we get from OC Baking Company, with creamy shallot dressing, spring mix, and fresh tomato. Simple, delicious.

We also have a Brisket Sandwich and a Smoked Duck Breast Sandwich. We’re going a little more old school on the Brisket Sandwich, electing to go with a meat-n-sauce only sandwich. The Duck sandwich, what can I say to do it justice? You simply must try it for yourself!

You win some, you lose some, and you learn a LOT in the process.  That’s what soft openings are for.  Thanks to all who joined us last night at the Soft Opening of our brand new Brick & Mortar in Fullerton!!  We served nearly 300 meals, had a line out the door, and did dishes until 1am!!  *WHEW!*  We’re thrilled to have another chance to work out the kinks again tonight with a whole new crowd.  Thanks to you from Shortstop BBQ!!!!  Thanks for helping us learn through this next chapter in our business ventures.

Thanks to the OC Register’s Fast Food Maven Nancy Luna for posting about our new spot: you can read her blog post here.

Fall Specials!

Mary : October 21, 2011 2:21 am : Shortstop Blog

I love the fall. I’m not so much loving this crazy heat right now, but generally speaking, I love autumn. When my wife and I lived in Paris, we were so inspired by what the outdoor markets had to offer at this time of year.  Thinking about all those delicious ingredients we saw and ate got me wondering about a fall special for the Shortstop BBQ Foodtruck. I wanted something unique and with flair, but with that “comfort food” feel and the flavors of barbeque.  These thoughts gave rise to our fall special (drum roll, please): the Smoked Meatloaf Patty Melt. It’s pretty awesome. We start with a super secret homestyle meatloaf recipe, and smoke it for four hours til it becomes tender, flavor and delicious. It is then paired with sourdough bread, Jarlesberg cheese, caramelized onions and a homemade tomato relish.  It’s a melt that just melts in your mouth. So if that sounds good, come by and get one.  And stay tuned…once the weather cools a bit, you will be able to add a nice cup of soup to your Patty Melt to complete the meal!
