Testimonials

On 3/14/2025 Rob Ernst had this to say:
Best pulled pork sandwich I ever ate (even including trips south of the Mason Dixon line). Meaty large portion of pork. The sauce was so thick I had to use a fork to spread it onto the meat. I normally don't like Cole Slaw but it came with it and it was also some of the best cole slaw I've ever eaten. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND HIGHLY! I would have taken pictures but it was too good to wait and take a picture.

Wow. What excellent food at The House of Brisket/Paris Food Truck. We are only able to get this great food when we come up to Illinois to see family. This was our second time....and definitely did not disappoint. We got the Burnt Ends. So tender. They were excellent, also tried a bite of the ribs and that melted in my mouth. If you haven't tried this truck, take the time, find the truck when it is in your area, follow them on Facebook where the post their weekly schedule. You won't be disappointed. They always greet you with a smile. Very friendly service.

On 10/14/2024 Lake Land College had this to say:
This year, Lake Land College recruited House of Brisket to assist with our Annual Career Day. This event brought more than 1,200 high school students to campus to explore potential career paths. To accommodate this influx of people on campus, the Career Day Planning Committee reached out to House of Brisket to provide our visitors with quality lunch options! We had a wildly successful Career Day, and this is in part thanks to House of Brisket and their awesome food, which helped ensure our visitors left, not just armed with knowledge, but also with full bellies! Thank you, House of Brisket! We look forward to working with you again in the future!
