A food truck created to feed a film set crew is now a full-fledged barbecue joint
Previous SlideNext Slide American$$$$ Tucked in an industrial part of Port Melbourne, Big Earle's began as a way for owner Grant Slotboom to feed the crew at his family's film set company, Illusions. Word spread and eight years later, it's a full-fledged barbecue joint known for super-sized platters, rotating sandwich specials and its annual barbecue festival, Burning Earle. Here, it's all about pork, cooked over red gum and ironbark in a repurposed Qantas jet engine compressor. The quiet standout is the pork butt, a tender shoulder cut. Find it on the Mega Tasting Plate alongside saucy, fall-off-the-bone ribs and spicy pork sausage, or go for the pork butt-loaded fries. While the venue awaits a liquor licence, you can BYO in the company of vintage signs and larger-than-life film set statues.
