We do Texas style barbecue with a twist. We aren't interested in being like any other barbecue place. Let's be honest, there is a lot of barbecue in Texas - especially in the Austin area. And there are ones that are better than others. So we decided to do things a little differently.

We do Texas style barbecue with a twist. We aren't interested in being like any other barbecue place. Let's be honest, there is a lot of barbecue in Texas - especially in the Austin area. And there are ones that are better than others. So we decided to do things a little differently.
First off, we serve pork barbecue as more high-end dishes, we don't sell meat by the pound. We chose to serve our barbecue as dishes (for example - Dragon Bites: barbecue pork belly with a bite served on a bed of Asian inspired cabbage [this is not likely a pork belly flavor profile you have had before and one you will not soon forget!] together you get a combination of flavors you will love if you like barbecue and a little spice- I could go on, but I won't).
We are foodies. We love food. We don't treat food like something we HAVE to eat. We eat food because we love it. We cook for the same reason. We don't want to just do what everyone else does or get into the "we have the best" game here (we may have the best, but that is not for us to decide).
We just want to serve great food that you will love and remember. We want you licking your fingers and lips and wanting more. If you also happen to come back for more, we won't mind. We want to see smiles on your faces while you enjoy our food. We make our food like we would at home - for our own families. We want our food to make you happy. We want our food to be an experience - a pleasure moment. We hope to get the chance to share our food with you!
At Twisted Pig, we believe that you should love food if you are planning to make it for others, even more important when you have a food truck and not a full kitchen to work from.
If anyone has a passion for food, it is our amazing chef, Esther. While she hails from Barcelona, Spain, she has traveled the world extensively getting to sample
At Twisted Pig, we believe that you should love food if you are planning to make it for others, even more important when you have a food truck and not a full kitchen to work from.
If anyone has a passion for food, it is our amazing chef, Esther. While she hails from Barcelona, Spain, she has traveled the world extensively getting to sample the foods from countries the world over. She has now lived in Texas for about 16 years and while she traditionally cooks Mediterranean food, she has a particular talent for blending flavors and coming up with new dishes and twists on old dishes that will tantalize your taste buds and keep you coming back for more of her great food.
Our pit master, John, a Texas native, has also traveled the world and enjoyed food from all over. He has an appreciation of the different flavors from around the globe and likes to work these into his dishes. He learned the craft of smoking meat and honed his skill over the years, following a path of discovery that culminated in the realization that he loved smoked pork above all. This has driven him to find new recipes and dishes for barbecue pork that you don't find anywhere else.
Together they have created dishes that they, their family and their friends all love. They are happy to be able to share some of their innovations with you with Twisted Pig where they give you their twist on Texas style barbecue.
Our menu is a reflection of our philosophy - bold, flavorful dishes that are designed to delight the senses. Starting with our mac and cheese to our Dragon Bites to our Smoked Texan Dog and Texican Street Corn, we prepare all of our dishes from scratch. Our recipes are all our own.

Our menu is a reflection of our philosophy - bold, flavorful dishes that are designed to delight the senses. Starting with our mac and cheese to our Dragon Bites to our Smoked Texan Dog and Texican Street Corn, we prepare all of our dishes from scratch. Our recipes are all our own.
We feel that if you are going to do something, you need to do it right or there is no reason to do it at all. So we created each dish as a reflection of what we would want in our own home - what we would feed our own family and friends. We have endeavored to keep our dishes flavorful and fresh even though we are serving them on the fly, from a food truck, possibly hundreds of miles from our own home or from a proper kitchen.
While some of our dishes have spice or gluten, we realize that's not for everyone so we also offer dishes for those who don't like the fire or who have to or prefer to be gluten free. We don't want anyone left out and we want everyone to be able to enjoy our amazing food.
We all know food can bring people together. However, something great we realized as we have gone along. If you do it right, if you serve good food and service people well, it makes them happy too! So you end up with happy people, enjoying great food and having a great time together!
When we got into this crazy food truck/barbecue business, we weren't in it for the recognition. We weren't seeking praise. There was never any intention to get into barbecue competitions.
But here we are. Apparently, things evolve. I'm not going to claim that we have the best barbecue to ever be made. But I will say that what we make, we make pretty well! Evidently, we aren't the only people who feel this way!
We are now an award winning BBQ truck! September of 2026 now goes down as the date of our first ever award for Twisted Pig!
Check out our blog page for a little more detail of how things went down.
