Houston's Favorite Food Truck

Real carnitas don't rush.
And neither do we.

Slow-braised for hours in secret family recipes, then served fresh from our truck to your hands — that's the taste of Pueblo Nuevo, right here on Broadway.

Our Story

A recipe that outlived the oven it started in

It began in a small kitchen outside Houston, where a family recipe for carnitas was passed down not in writing, but in patience — hours of watching, learning, and waiting for the moment the meat just falls apart.

When that kitchen closed, the recipe didn't. We took it to the streets, loaded it into a truck, and started rolling through Houston's neighborhoods — showing up where people actually are, not where they have to go out of their way to find us.

Every batch is still slow-cooked the same way. Every tortilla is still pressed fresh. That's not a marketing line — it's just how we do it, because that's how it was done before there was a truck to put it on.

The Process

What happens before the truck arrives

Great carnitas can't be rushed. Here's what goes into every batch we roll out.

01

Select the Cut

We start with pork shoulder — the right marbling, the right fat cap. Nothing else comes close for this recipe.

02

Low & Slow

Hours of gentle cooking in our braising liquid. The meat absorbs every bit of flavor while becoming impossibly tender.

03

Char & Finish

A quick sear on the griddle gives the edges a crispy, caramelized finish that makes every bite interesting.

04

Serve Fresh

Pressed tortillas, fresh salsa, the works — assembled right in front of you and handed over while it's still hot.
