From all the great reviews from other Yelpers that I follow and whos opinions I value, I came away from the Sloppi Jo's tasting experience a little underwhelmed at the recent Costco Food Truck Fest. First it is not \"sloppy joe\" on the menu, just well, Mexican food.\n\nI tried the signature \"Sloppi Jo\" which is slow roasted prok with red chile sauce, served with fried egg, pickled onions, and flour tortilla. The pork was tender, but I thought it was too salty, and the flavor was kind of plain and one dimensional. The pickled onions flavor was really subtle to the point where i thought it was just regular onions, and I didn't think it added to the overall flavor profile of the entire dish. I do like the fried egg, but I crave the perfect simple fried egg with the runny yolk even when I am full and eating dessert.\n\nWhile eating the Sloppi Jo, I was told that the Green Chile Stew was the bomb, but it was off the menu because the weather is getting too warm now. I think if it is back on the menu, that will be the item I will definitely want to try, and maybe get a more positive food truck adventure experience in the process.\n\nThe super tall lady who was taking the orders was super nice (I didn't realize she was standing on a plastic crate until I walked by later in the day) and I have to say that it takes a lot of guts to get into the food truck/mobile food service business. So best of luck with the venture.
