text: I have visited the Slider Truck probably a dozen times or so Each time I have gone I have been greeted with an enthusiastic fistbump and the intoxicating smell of freshlycooked beef The trucks owner would it be unprofessional for me to call him our culinary savior Ric takes great care to make each and every customer feel welcome and he does not let them leave with an empty stomachnnWith the food he dishes out though how could one even consider leaving when there is still room for more From the moreorless standard Pep Pep to the sauceladen Barbie from the safe Plain Jane to the caramelizedjalapeufospiked Pulled Porkie Ric has not made me a slider yet that I have not lovednnThe Slider Truck is something I had never even dreamt of but now that it is here I cannot imagine a world without it I am not saying it is the only thing I care to eat anymore but it is really nice to have a relativelyquick inexpensive and extremelydelicious option for my lunch breaksnnIts strange the Slider Truck seemed to just materialize out of nowhere one day did not it I saw Matt tweeting about it one day and decided to try it out and now here we are Maybe Ric is actually a dark wizardchef from the future come to advance civilization to new and tasty heights It is one possible explanation More likely he was just tired of all the crap being dished out and the lack of culture and streetside camaraderie in Las Vegas and he decided to do something about itnnEither way I respect this man and I thank him for the food truck revolution he is begun God bless Ric and his big truck of tiny burgersnnyelplove
