By managing food truck daily life from event booking, to online ordering and catering we have cultivated an intimate relationship with great vendors throughout the country and know exactly which truck(s) will suit your needs, from a small neighborhood party to massive corporate events.
In Des Moines, supporting our young athletes and scholars means creating unforgettable experiences that foster both joy and character development. Traditional food options at youth events can often be uninspiring and prone to running out, leaving attendees disappointed. Why settle for less when you can have your favorite dishes prepared by culinary experts and organized by Des Moines' leading food truck catering company for academic and athletic events? Say goodbye to long lines and missing out on crucial moments of the game or performance. With our service, you can order directly from your smartphone and only step away briefly when your delicious meal is ready for pickup. Spend more time creating lasting memories with your family and friends while cheering on the young athletes and scholars pursuing their dreams!
Enjoy a meal that rivals the excitement of the competition or the brilliance of the academic showcase. Avoid the common lament of "the game was great, but the food was a letdown." It's a well-known fact that satisfying food and beverage options significantly enhance the event experience, encouraging attendees to come back for more. Remember, happy fans create a more vibrant and enjoyable atmosphere for everyone involved!
One of the local favorites in Des Moines is The Big Red Food Truck, known for its American bistro cuisine. This food truck has been a staple in the Des Moines Metro area for nearly a decade, earning accolades in food truck competitions, making appearances on the Food Network, and most recently winning "Best New Fair Food" at the Iowa State Fair with their sister trailer, The Cluckin' Coop. When you choose The Big Red Food Truck for your youth athletics and academic events, you're not just getting great food; you're adding a piece of Des Moines' culinary excellence to your event.
Best Food Trucks brings an innovative online ordering system to Des Moines, allowing attendees of youth athletic and academic events to skip the usual food lines. Now, instead of missing out on crucial moments of the match or presentation, your guests can order their favorite local eats directly from their smartphones. A simple text notification lets them know when their food is ready for pickup, ensuring they spend more time enjoying the event and less time standing in line. To make things even more convenient, we offer the option to send out a pre-order link, so attendees can arrange their meal pick-up times before the event even begins. This seamless integration of food truck catering and digital convenience means your event in Des Moines will be remembered for great performances on the field and in the classroom, as well as for the fantastic, hassle-free dining experience.

Food was really good. Only thing I recommend is not skimping on the brisket. Ordered a 3 meat platter with sausage, brisket and chicken. The amount of chicken we got was a lot compared to everything else. Chicken just happens to be the most inexpensive item for the business so I feel like that was on purpose.

Food was good. I specifically marked no bacon on my order but there was bacon on it anyway. But that's okay, I just pulled it off and gave it to the dog. lol

The food is amazing! I got caught in traffic so was well behind my pre-order time, the food was still made fresh when I got there. Can’t wait for them to come again!

Quick and tasty. I feel like taste and speed are the most important things for a food truck and they nailed both!

The beef brisket was perfectly smoked, the mac & cheese very saucy. I was surprised that the coleslaw wasn't mixed, but then I thought (great idea).- this way I can remove some sauce to match my taste

These tacos are the best we've had with the trucks for months! Great taste! Good price! Yum!!! Thank you!

This is honestly still one of my favorite food trucks, even though today the thing I was looking forward to most was an I don’t. They did not bring with them. They still did what they could to make it right. I genuinely appreciate them for that
