Johnnie's Mobile Kitchen — Food Truck at Vallecito Lake

A teal trailer with a sunrise on it, parked at the lake

Some food trucks do burgers. Johnnie's does an elk sloppy joe with slaw, a turkey, bacon and apple melt under brie on sourdough, and a breakfast burrito with elk, eggs and pico, all cooked to order out of a teal trailer with a sunrise painted on it.

Experienced cooks, a short menu, and everything cooked to order.

Find the truck in the Lake House & General Store lot, 17460 County Road 501, next to Rocky Mountain General Store — order at the window, Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m.–3 p.m. Catering runs year round; the menu and booking are on their own site, johnniesmobilekitchen.com.

Lunch that helps wolves

Johnnie's runs a $5 hot dog, chips & water lunch where proceeds go to Wolfwood Refuge, the wolf and wolf-dog sanctuary up the road in Ignacio. “The wolfies are coming back to 5 Branches” is how they announce it — and the valley shows up. They run it a few times a season: $5 gets the classic lunch, or order off the full menu and the wolves still win. Watch their Facebook for the next date.

They cater. Basically anything.

Weddings, meetings, birthdays, reunions, luncheons — if they can handle it, they'll cook it, with a custom menu built around your event. The same outside-the-box kitchen (elk sloppy joes at your wedding? correct decision), brought to you.
