No longer in actual food trucks, but they taste the same. Their service is quick. Still the best fat sandwiches I’ve bought. Everywhere else is just a copy. A staple in the grease trucks community that you have to try at least once. Whenever I’m around Rutgers I have to get one. Fat Nini w/ extra honey mustard!

NEW BRUNSWICK: being alumni of Rutgers University, we still crave the famous fat sandwiches of the grease trucks. Although the trucks are long gone, RU Hungry Rutgers has a storefront to meet the needs of hungry college students and customers with a huge menu of these famous sandwiches. For those of you that do not know, a fat sandwich is a sub roll stuffed with all the ingredients. Even what you would consider a side dish is loaded into the roll! The Fat Darrell was ranked the #1 sandwich in the country in 2004 by Maxim magazine and is still a favorite over 2 decades later. It is filled with chicken fingers, mozzarella sticks, french fries, and marinara sauce. There are 33 meaty sandwiches to choose from and an additional 6 as vegetarian options. The menu also includes buffalo wings, greek/mediterranean options, wraps, salads, quesadillas, cheesesteaks, breakfast sandwiches, and SO MUCH MORE! The prices are very reasonable too with most fat sandwiches being under $12, and it can fill you for 2 meals!
There are a couple of dog friendly tables outside overlooking the Rutgers campus right in “The Yard” at corner of Hamilton St. and College Ave.
Fun fact: Adam Richman of Man vs. Food visited RU Hungry in 2009 to try and beat the challenge of eating 5 fat sandwiches in 45 minutes. Spoiler alert, he lost. You can take the challenge too and if you win, you can create your own sandwich that will be featured on the menu, just like Darrell did.

There is a very rude worker that usually works at night, he gives all customers an attitude for no reason. he has a beard, if you go here at night you’ll know exactly who i’m talking about! The food is okay, depending on what you get, but some is super stale. It’s a bit over priced compared to surrounding places, and from what I’ve been told,, this place used to be a lot better! Also no parking.
