Yum! La Vernia food truck known for popular barbecue sandwich

Flavor Favs: ScooterZ BBQ

LA VERNIA, Texas – It has taken pit master Mike Neal over 20 years to perfect his barbecue. 

"Barbecue is a lot different than other foods," Neal said. "It takes a lot of practice and a lot of time to learn.

After some encouraging from family and friends, Neal decided to open a food truck.

He called it ScooterZ BBQ, named after his sons. 

You can find it parked off Highway 87, in front of the H-E-B in La Vernia.

The food truck has grown in popularity the past year, and has become known for the "Scooter Sandwich"

Inside the sandwich contains brisket, sausage, coleslaw, jalapeños and barbecue sauce.

Beside the sandwich the brisket is probably the next go-to item.

It is delicious and packs great flavors.

ScooterZ is only open Tuesday through Thursday, but also provides catering services.
