Over the last several years, we’ve all watched the food truck business rise. From delicious hot dog carts to BBQ trucks and to all-out gourmet, hand-crafted pizza trucks. The variety of food trucks is never-ending! When food businesses were ordered to close down during the pandemic, most food trucks managed to find a way around it. Considering the fact that they had outdoor seating and could maintain social distancing.
We have chosen four food trucks that are primarily in the location of Murfreesboro. Who doesn’t love a night out on the town with family and friends eating some of the finest street eats! You can simply track down each food truck by following them on their social media platforms or street food finder app!

Amit and Kerrie Sumair, husband and wife team and owners of Trinidaddy Island Grill Food Truck. When they moved to Tennessee from New York, they immediately realized that Trini food was scarce here. While they were coming up with the concept for a food truck, they felt like it would be awesome to bring the flavors of Trinidad and the Caribbean to Middle Tennessee! When you go to try Trinidaddy out, you must try Doubles. It is the ultimate favorite here in middle Tennessee. They will be attending several fall dates at Friday Night Market in the Boro which is held at, Cannonsburg Village. Be sure to follow us on Facebook and/or Instagram for our locations and updates!

Neil and Michelle Overholt, the two proud owners of Rickenbacher Pizza. What started out as an experiment, quickly became a reality. When the pandemic hit, they saw their window of opportunity and took it. The pizza that really put them on the map was the Pulled Pork pizza, it's slow-roasted pork butt, a little tomato sauce, white cheddar, red onion, & bacon. After it comes out of the oven, it is finished with homemade BBQ sauce, Alabama White Sauce, and green onions. All of their upcoming events can be found on their Facebook page.
