Maximus Minimus Review (part one of QUEST #1)

I've been wanting to try Maximus Minimus forever, because I have only heard good things about it. Maximus Minimus is a truck that is covered to look like a metal pig. It is owned by the same people who own Beecher's Cheese in Pike place. It serves two types of Pulled Pork BBQ sandwiches: Maximus, which is a spicy spicy pork sandwich, and Minimus: which is a mild pork sandwich. They also use this same theme of Maximus and Minimus for their cold slaw and drinks. The Maximus slaw has a hint of chipotle while the Minimus slaw has a little bit of honey mustard. The drinks on the hand is a choice between the Maximus: Ginger Lemonade and the Minimus: Hibiscus Nectar.

I went to Maximus Minimus this Saturday, So as SHMU i will give the food a verdict.

This is what I ate:





Maximus Pulled Pork w/ Beechers flagship cheese (bottom right in picture, no bun cause of allergy): This was literally orgasmic. I had never tasted bbq pulled pork this amazing. It had the perfect amount of spice to get your taste buds going yet no emergency water was needed. The meat was saturated perfectly, not to dry and not to wet, while the cheese only made it better

Maximus Coldslaw (top right in picture): This was amazing. Unlike boring cold slaw with no flavor, this had a little chipotle kick that made it fresh and a perfect complement to the meat.

Chips (left in picture): Now these are not your normal potato chips. These chips are delectable. It is a medley of homemade potato chips, beet chips, carrot chips, and string beans that come together with the perfect seasoning to satisfy your belly. Sure your thinking "why would i like carrot chips or beet chips," but trust me put aside your preconceived notion about these veggies and enjoy the bliss.

Hibiscus Nectar and Ginger Lemonade: I loved the Hibiscus nectar but the ginger lemonade was a little to much for me. so i settled for the Minimus Drink to counter act the Maximus meat and slaw.

VERDICT? APPROVED 5/5
