I spent alot of time trying to avoid eating from burger vans when I was on the road.
Love the chance of food poisoning and the smell of petrol fumes when I am eating an under cooked donkey burger bolt
proper tomato sauce, hate the cheap nasty vinegary stuff .

I`ve bought a burger trailer lol
I have a pitch on the side of a busy road :lol:
What do you like about roadside burger trailers and what do you hate ?
A free burger to anybody who comes up with an idea I haven`t already considered !!!

/snob mode on
What is to like about them? Cold bland food with catering pack sauce/teabags/coffe and a bunch of truckers standing around talking about the price of fuel Hate? No, avoid, always.
The blokes that serve in them, i've watched them get out of the van to take a pee and go straight back to the van after handling their manhood and get straight back to serving food, without washing their hands, Yuk! The sink is usually full of hotwater, so if they were to wash their hands it's a swill of the water, the same water they then use to rinse a cup or wash a utensil.
On the flip side, my man has a mate who owns a 'burger van' , he purchased it about three years ago when he was on his uppers, it's paid him well as he now has a new car, they've just come back from a month in NZ and have had an extension on their house, full marks to him.
Your pitch would be key, good luck!
/snob mode off
PS: Take pegs and sell them from the back of the van, nothing like that gypsy feeling.
PPS: I reckon the above peg idea has won me the free burger and in a pure selfless allow me to donate my prize to whomever it is that first posts underneath this post.
Off to bed now, zZzZzZ

In the main there are three places to eat Burgers
Whilst out for a meal. This is a no no I dont eat fast food whilst sitting down to eat
A burger van. Been to many of varying quality but can pick many of whom most are honest folk trying to earn a buck.
Fast food outlets like Burger king and Mcdonalds. Full of spotty spunking teenagers on minimum wage who dont give a toss (excuse the pun) about food quality or smiling biggrin
Two of my school friends worked in Mcdonalds up the road and in fairness they did not play spunk on the burgers. They did however play football in the car park with packs of cheese slices that were later served.
So then, I'll go with burger vans. My advice to Flower! Dont employ any spunking teenagers for cover on Wednesdays or Saturday mornings.
1). Make it motorbike friendly! lol
2). Don't put a a mug of water on the counter for everyone to return their used spoons to - yuk! :confused:
3). Know all the local dogging sites! :lol: there's a guy up North who's burger van was on a prominent, well-known dogging layby. He knew who was who but was always discreet!!

Keep plenty of antibacterial hand wash and extra water to keep your hands clean.
Make sure the said hand wash and other cleaning fluids are in view of customers so they can see you are at least trying to make an effort instead of following suit with a lot of other burger vans!
Don't use dirty water to wash your hands yuk!
Don't use dirty water to wash pots yuk!
Don't have sauce bottles with dried up sauce round the necks yuk!
Wash spoons between customers instead of sticking in cup of water!
Keep a spare apron and change into it before other one gets that thick with grease you can stick your cooking utensils to it!
I have a bit of OCD and if I go to buy something and the environment it is prepared in appears dirty I will happily change my mind and decide I don't want it.
No excuse for some vans.
Ice cream vans ewwww, I would never buy me or my lad an ice cream from one. never seen an ice cream man wash his hands yet, none round here anyway.
Ok rant over but good luck with your venture. lol
Tony :-)
Keep your hair tidy. Nothing worse than finding pubes in yer burger! :thumbup:
Don't expect your customers to stand in a muddy puddle while ordering / waiting! lol
Wow! Never realised people were that bothered with filth lol I thought that was part of the attraction! All I ever notice at burger vans is what the food looks like, what the queue looks like (both quantitative and qualitative), who is serving, what music is playing - and whether there's enough money in my purse. Never once seen, looked for or noticed a burger van sink! Though the clogged-up/messed up sauce bottles annoy me as well! So yes, keep those bottles neat there heh. And also, have good quality paper napkins! Something absorbent enough to wipe with. Menu-wise, can you make me a cheese and tomato toastie please? No? Oh well, will settle for the donkey burger :lol:
Good luck with your enterprise!
Hmmm by ingesting a bit of dirt and filth now and again helps us deal with a lot of nasty bugs.
Good on ya flower, more grease to your elbow.....btw chilli burgers with onion and proper cheddar...proper hot mustard, mayonnaise as well as salt and vinegar for the chips....boil the onion, not fry....for days on end, they caramelize and taste lush!
Apart from cleanliness, which is vital, why not have some local tourist info leaflets ? You could put a rack to hold these on the front of your van.

You won't get your hands dirty if you use the kitchen tongs when you go for a piss - hand washing problem solved. We'll pass on that free burger though lol
Can I have everyone's free burger that they don't want???????
Don't undersell it..."burger trailer" = A Mobile Catering Unit, opens up the possibility of other outdoor events where there may be opportunities to cash in, just a thought.
Get some decent tea and coffee not that nasty piss weak shit they usually try to pass off as digestible
Veggie burgers and mattesons turkey bacon.....
Get them and i might come and place a quid in ya hand lol
Ohh and Nescafe cappuccino's (to go with my Baileys) :lickface:
decent sausages (slomers do a good catering service )and decent burgers
nothing worse than grisly bony burgers or sausages, reclaimed meat is a no no
steak baguette is a good seller also onions mushrooms and some good ol Colman's mustard mmmmm
Mayo, Ketchup mixed with a hint of Garlic and a few Chilli flakes is a nice dressing and has the added bonus of making people thirsty, boosting your sales of soft drinks, teas ......
