If you're not sure where to find the Rib Truck just, look around for the tell-tale signs. Most notably, the line of people standing next to a plume of smoke. The van, which pulls a smoker along with it, travels to the towns of Presque Isle, Madawaska, Caribou, and Fort Kent.
John and Mary Freeman are at the helm of this operation, which usually opens around 10 a.m. and stays open until the food is gone. That usually happens around 2 p.m.
If you're wondering how good BBQ can be from a truck, we recommend you come try for yourself. There's certainly nothing better than their rack o' ribs, chicken thighs, pulled pork, BBQ baked beans, and slaw.
But what we might love most is the invention of the Parfait. A hearty pint cup piled high with layers of baked beans, pulled pork and BBQ sauce, this is the perfect thing for folks who don't mind eating their food on-the-go.
The Rib Truck is open…anytime you see the truck! There really aren’t any hours that we can provide here. You’ll find them throughout northern Aroostook County in places like Presque Isle, Caribou, Madawaska, and Fort Kent. Be sure to follow their Facebook page for the latest!
Address: E. Main Street, Fort Kent, ME 04743
