Food Truck Warz is a FREE fun event where people can come together and enjoy amazing food, midway rides, and shop at a local Made In Manitoba market. The event, now in its third year, has quickly become one of Brandon's most highly anticipated and well-attended annual events. In addition to all the fun and excitement, the event also helps to benefit several charity and not for profit initiatives in the process. Four local organizations will have the opportunity to raise both funds and awareness at this year's event including Pawsitive Communities (merchandise), Habitat for Humanity (beer garden), and Westman Dreams for Kids (50/50). The John Howard Society of Brandon will be managing the parking at the Brandon Riverbank Discovery Centre over the weekend. Parking is only $2 per car, per day. All funds raised from parking goes directly to the John Howard Society of Brandon. "Food Truck Warz and bdnmb.ca are locally owned and operated businesses and we're always looking for new ways to help support the community" said co-event organizer Darryl Wolski. "Incorporating these organizations into the weekends activities is just one small way we can give back" added Wolski.

Making their debut at Brandon's Food Truck Warz in 2019 is the Simba Safai Grill who specialize in African-inspired dishes. Their African dishes are made with authentic Kenyan and African spices and seasonings. The seasonings are not spicy in taste, but in flavor. Simba Safari Grill participates in many fairs and festivals within and outside of Manitoba including Folk Fest (Winnipeg), Osborne Village Canada Day Street Celebration (Winnipeg), and Manyfest (Winnipeg). They are also the 2016 Food Truck Wars winner in Winnipeg for "best bang for your buck." You will love the flavorful menu items you will find at Simba Safari Grill. The mouth watering Serengeti Chicken (Chicken marinated with authentic African spices then simmered) and the MOKIMO (Mashed Potatoes, Peas and Corn seasoned with herbs) will have you lining up for more. This truck offers a wide array of gluten free and vegetarian dishes as well.

A perennial favourite during Food Truck Wars at ManyFest in Winnipeg, BBK's BBQ will be making their fist appearance at Brandon's Food Truck Warz in 2019. In operation since 2005,they use apple wood to smoke their meats in serving up some tasty, mouthwatering beef brisket, pulled pork, beef on a bun, and burgers. Combo plates are available with traditional BBQ sides like sweet baked beans, coleslaw, and sweet potatoe fries. They took home the Peoples Choice award at ManyFest in 2018 for “Best Bang for you Buck”. The melt-in-your-mouth tender beef brisket and slow smoked and hand pulled pork sandwiches will have hungry patrons lined up looking for more.

Wings-N-Fries is the premiere food truck in Manitoba for all things chicken wings! Chicken wings come in two different sizes (7 wings, 14 wings) with flavours like Salt & Pepper, Sweet Chili, Chipotle, Maple Bacon, Sriracha, and Electric Honey. Heat seekers will love Firehall #1, the hottest wing flavour on the menu. A selection of dipping sauces are also available. In addition to the variety of wings offered they also serve fries, poutine, and spicy mayo fries. Wings-N-Fries will be making their second appearance at Brandon's Food Truck Warz. Check them out all three days (September 13-15) at the Brandon Riverbank Discovery Centre.

Food Truck Warz is extremely happy to announce that a BeaverTails Food Truck will be attending their event in 2019. “We had some requests for additional dessert options and BeaverTails will definitely help fill that void” said event organizers.   BeaverTails are deliciously addictive, whole-wheat Canadian pastries served piping' hot with your choice of delectable toppings. They are hand-stretched to resemble the tail of a beaver. Delicious options include the classic “Cinnamon and Sugar” and the “Triple Trip” which is topped with a chocolate hazelnut spread, peanut butter, and Reese’s Pieces®.   In addition to the popular pastry, they also serve a variety of signature beverages including a Frosty and creamy orange-vanilla frappé, smoothies and hot chocolate. Food Truck Warz takes place in Brandon September 13-15. The Facebook event page can be found here.
