Food Truck Spotlight: Spicey Rooster BBQ CO

Randy Combs, and his wife Gloria own the Spicey Rooster BBQ CO. Their food trailer is called the Rooster Coop.

Randy has been cooking his entire life, watching and learning from his grandmother’s and mom. While he was in high school he worked at a Rax that was in Dayton. He first stepped into the food world creating his own line of hot sauces, bbq sauces, and rubs.

He and his wife have been cooking/catering for close to twenty years. I’ve been doing bbq for longer. They started with a canopy, and a custom grill they pulled behind their truck. Two years ago they decided to have a trailer built and that has allowed them to expanded what they do.

Their most popular sellers, are brisket, bbq ribs, and basically anything Randy bbq’s. He’s created dishes using brisket, and also some oriental bbq dishes. He loves to create culinary experiences through fusing different ethnic foods. Too many people want “Texas” bbq. He told us he doesn’t model what he does after Texas. He says, “my bbq is mine, with much more flavor without a smokey after taste.” They also offer lots more than BBQ: Hungarian cabbage rolls, pulled pork, smoked sausage, brats w kraut, meatball hoagies, soft pretzels w cheese and chili just to name a few options.
