I stopped in here last Saturday at 10:30 am and when I pulled into the parking lot, I was…read moreunderwhelmed as Blanchard's is in a strip mall between a Subway and a donut shop. "How good can strip mall BBQ be?" was my initial thought but the line of 10 people waiting to get in that early eased my thinking. To answer my own question, strip mall BBQ can apparently be great! I got a 2-meat plate with the brisket, Dr Pepper glazed sticky ribs, green chili corn casserole and smokey beans. As you are ordering the brisket they ask if you want it sliced or chopped, and if you want lean, fatty or burnt ends. I knew it would be good then. The lean brisket was solid, a little peppery on the bark. I'd have liked it to be a little smokier and the bark a little more flavorful but that's the only complaint you will get in this review. The Dr Pepper sticky ribs were phenomenal! Sweet, smokey dessert like meaty goodness. It was almost pornographic what I did to those bones. The smokey beans lived up to that name for sure and the green chili corn casserole was unique and delicious. This is a definitely a place I will repeat when I am back in Lafayette.

It's good BBQ. I can't honestly say that it matches the price. The price reflects a full service…read morerestaurant, not a wait in line, order at the counter experience. It is a small place in a strip mall, so seating is limited. That being said the last time I was there, there was quite a line, so obviously people believe that it is worth it. Take your own data. For me, it is just a bit pricey for what you get.

I must state that I decided to try this truck on a Friday during lent time, so therefore I had to…read moreeat something that was not meat.. I was really devastated.. I barely get to catch this food truck, and I did not get to try the other mouthwatering menu items.. so this review is based on one item, until I try the other items, I had the following: - Louisiana Grilled Shrimp, Caesar Salad, on a Spinach Wrap: the grilled shrimp was cooked perfect, and the wrap was good, just a little too light for me I can't wait to catch this truck again, and try his other items. ***So I came back to try this place again, and had their award winning pull pork sandwich. I now believe that it is an award winning sandwich. This sandwich was packed with so much flavor and quality, probably one of the best pull pork I ever hard. So moist and flavorful, I just want another one right now!

Okay. My mission is to try all the food trucks in Lafayette at least once; so today I stopped at…read moreChef Gregory's which was parked across from Brothers on Johnston with a few other food trucks. Perfect! I basically went eenie, meenie , miney , mo and picked Chef Gregory's Food Truck. The "Kick Ass Shrimp" sandwich caught my eye, although at $12.00 with no side item; it seemed kind of pricey. But, what the heck ... if it was good, it would be money well spent - right? Well, yes and no. The six shrimp were cooked very nicely, although I had to remove them from the sandwich in order to not eat the tails. It was the bottom bread swimming in grease and loads of garlic that was so disappointing. You could literally wring out the bread; instead, I just didn't eat it. For six shrimp and a top layer of bread, it was not worth $12.00. I bought a Diet Coke and that brought the total to $14.50. Sorry, Chef Gregory, but a food truck is not fine dining.
