Pig Vycious Northeastern BBQ

Joey Maynard is the owner/operator of a mobile food truck in Cortland, NY called Pig Vycious Northeastern BBQ. His mobile food truck operates all year in Cortlandville, travels to local festivals and events, as well as offers unlimited catering possibilities.
Joey is a culinary veteran with experience that started at 13 years of age in Commando’s Restaurant kitchen. As an adult, Joey’s travels took him across the country from New York, North Carolina, Florida, every beach in between, and all the way to the mid-west. His travels introduced him to many culinary cultures such as tossing handmade pizzas up and down the eastern seaboard, traditional Italian fare, Mexican taco trucks, and every BBQ style in North America.
Joey’s love of all things culinary began in his Grandmother’s garden. As a child they harvested daily meals from the vegetable garden while fresh bread was baking inside. As Italian immigrants, Joey’s Grandparents passed down family traditions and the ability to create magic in the kitchen through lessons that run in their blood.
Pig Vycious Northeastern BBQ grew out of a vision. The ‘Vycious Vysion,’ that Joey had been dreaming of for years. Not sure of how to begin, he decided to just go to work. Joey opened Pig Vycious without a truck, on the side of the road, with a makeshift cooker, and a free countertop. Little by little, piece by piece, day by day, Joey began building, creating, and putting systems in place that continually build to the next level. His next accomplishment is a work in progress. Having outdoor seating, as well as an indoor dining room that comfortably accommodates customers is his next goal. In addition, Joey plans to build an outdoor stage where local musicians can have an alternative venue that will attract families, friends, teams, schools, car & motorcycle enthusiasts, local and out of town customers, and many others.
Joey Maynard, with help from his solid and loyal partner, Natalie Potter, and their families and friends have created what they believe will become an iconic staple in their community. Joey and Natalie plan to take the food truck to all their local events and begin to travel to other festivals located outside their hometown to begin expanding the Pig Vycious Northeastern BBQ brand. “What I ended up doing when I was looking for a food truck for sale near me is I searched online and reviewed the options on sites like TheDealExperts or eBay and then I got in touch with the owners, dealers and manufacturers to find the truck that was perfect for my needs.”
Pig Vycious Northeastern BBQ food truck is located at 985 NYS Route 13 across from Country Max. To contact them, call 607-749-0435 or find them on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. One of the benefits of having a mobile food trailer is that Joey can attend any event and cater everything from concerts, weddings, parties, fundraisers, sporting events, and other community functions. Joey plans to keep his food truck open all year and continue renovations on his indoor dining room and kitchen.
Stop in and see for yourself. Come for the food, stay for the story. Joey Maynard will charm you with his incredible BBQ and his ‘Vycious Vysion.’
