Twins debut new foods, self-checkout stands for 2025
Pickle pizza and pork butt platters are among the new concessions debuting at Target Field for Thursday's Twins home opener. The big picture: The Twins rolled out about 21 new food and drink options at a media preview on Tuesday. Kyle's thought bubble: My favorite was the Truly On Deck restaurant's grilled Spam sandwich with bacon and onions. The Minnesota-native meat could prove divisive with fans. Try it once! Plus: The new Kramarczuk's sausage — a "Cherry Bomb," with dried fruit and a nice kick — also ranked high for me. They're selling it on an epic six-sausage sampler flight. The intrigue: Fans will be able to ring up their own food orders at new self-checkout kiosks in sections 105 and 109 — historically one of the ballpark's busiest concession areas, the team said. Stunning stat: The new kiosks could speed up checkout for ballpark essentials — brats, fries, cheese curds and drinks — by as much as 40%, Delaware North manager Pete Spike told Axios. The stands expand on a concept previously only used at Target Field for beverage sales. Here are some of the other new food options debuting at Target Field this year: 🐷 Vinai's fried pork: Chef Yia Vang 's crispy pork butt tossed in sweet and sour sauce with cabbage slaw, cucumbers and pickled carrots. Section 223 🧇 Chicken & waffles: Official Fried Chicken is adding a platter with mini waffles and tenders smothered in hot honey. It also unveiled a new fried chicken-bacon-ranch sandwich. Section 134 🗡️ A "Steak Machete": An 18-inch-long steak quesadilla at the Taco Libre stand, which also sells steak bowls. Section 103 🍗 Toki Doki: The Eat Street burger joint is serving wings with both a dry rub and a homemade, gluten-free gochujang sauce. Hrbek's Bar 🧋 Boba tea: Niko Niko 's signature milk tea, a Hawaiian fruit tea and a strawberry lemon spritz. Section 107 🥒 Pickle pizza: A Pizza Lucé concept with mozzarella, sliced pickles and a dill garnish. Section 223 🌮 Walleye tacos: Branded by Lord Fletcher's and tossed in tequila lime slaw. Gate 34
