Super nice and friendly guys manning the food truck when we got there. They were right in the midst of making the food for our order, so we knew it was well-prepared and fresh. They were kind enough to tell us how their food truck got started, and the inspiration behind it, which is always fun and nice to hear because it makes the experience and food so much more personable. Regarding the food: it was tasty, and the portion size for each order was bigger than we expected (this is not a complaint). The chicken, ribs, and pulled pork were quite tender and juicy. However, the brisket tasted a little overcooked, which resulted in a slight toughness to it, and the mesquite flavor in all the meats was overwhelming after a few bites. I'm certain some people like a lot of that smoky flavor, but for my family and me, it was just a little too much. Their BBQ sauce actually tastes more like a spicy salsa, which I personally wasn't fond of. The macaroni and cheese, mashed potatoes, and jalapeño rice were all quite delicious though. I was content with just those sides, and wish I had gotten another order or two of the rice. Overall, I'd only go back for their sides, which is a bit of a dampener considering it is a BBQ food truck.

Best damn BBQ in town! Sliced brisket beautifully done. Smokey, pull apart tender with wonderful bark. Thick Mac and cheese with cheese toast and spicy jalapeno rice. Love it!

Amazing food! Great customer service not one bite I didn’t eat. Today was the first time I’ve ever had them and I don’t regret it! They are fast and great cooks! All the guys there are very welcoming and kind! Definitely best bbq I’ve ever had and the best price for how much food you get.

We ordered the pulled pork plate with coleslaw and garlic mashed potatoes, Mac daddy sandwiches with pulled pork and brisket, and a smoked meat and cheddar sandwich with pulled pork. I should have taken pictures, but we ate it too fast! Everything was awesome. The service was great and there was very little wait. We were lucky and got there before they were out of anything, which I've been told happens later in the day - we got the last of the mashed potatoes! Probably the best barbecue I've had in Salem. Definitely the best I've had in a long time!

The boys at Cindy Lou's are crushing the game. As a fellow event caterer, I was graced with Cindy Lou's presence at a recent event. I'm a big fan of self-starters, good people, and excellent brisket - All boxes were checked. Keep up the good work, Chris!

If you don't know where it's at, Google maps will take you past it. It's behind Ink Daddy's out south. I had the Smoked meat & cheese sandwich. Chopped Brisket and cheese on a pub roll. Was really good! I'll be back for sure
