A food truck or trailer is the ultimate flexible business. You can literally move it where you want to go. And you can work any hours that suit.
History of Food Trucks
Although it may seem like a recent phenomenon. The food truck dates back to America in the second half of the 19th century. When an army wagon was converted into a mobile kitchen to feed cowhands moving cattle. By the 1880s the first food trucks Brisbane were manufactured in Massachusetts. The recent resurgence in food trucks happened after the recession hit the US last decade. Chefs from high-end restaurants were laid off and turned to trucks to sell their food. The food truck went from serving super-fast takeaway food with not much imagination to gourmet food.
From Pizza Shop to Mobile Pizza
Roam’In Pizza started as a wood-fired pizza takeaway shop in Brisbane’s Redland Bay. We broke our teeth on perfecting the best wood-fired pizza. But we still operate a very busy business today from our original takeaway outlet. Now we’ve translated our takeaway skills to the mobile pizza catering business. And we offering the pizza trailer as a franchise opportunity. With all our years of pizza making and catering experience behind it.
Wood Fired Trailer
Roam’In Pizza has its own version of the food truck offering mobile food but in the form of a trailer. This makes it easier to park and store your business when not in use. Because it simply detaches from your car. It also doesn’t require the expense of a separate vehicle registration. The trailer has a distinctive red colour scheme and stainless steel pizza ovens. It’s an eye-catching version of a food truck. And the act of making pizza on the spot with the oven visible to all is an added attraction of this business to customers and a great gimmick for outdoor catering events.
The Wood Fired Oven
The trailer contains the essential tool of our mobile wood-fired pizza – the oven. The most common question we get asked. What’s the difference between a normal pizza and our wood-fired pizza. variety can be answered with three unique characteristics:
- The oven is very hot so cooking time is much faster than a normal electric or gas pizza oven.
- Cooking is even because the burning wood creates a draft or thermal current that creates even cooking.
- The wood smoke flavour is infused in the crust, so you’ll taste a slightly wood-fire flavour.
The Best Sustainable Wood
At Roam’In Pizza we made sure we found the best wood for our ovens. That meant sourcing a sustainable, native species that burnt to the correct temperatures for a pizza oven. The ironbark trees we use are from a private property in the Western Downs region of Queensland. This property has been registered as a Natural Resources and Water Practice by the Queensland Government since 2009. The fact our wood is the best available. Which sourced from legitimate sources is very important to us.
