    How Dang Brother Pizza Turns Fire Trucks into Pizza Hotspots

    #352 Dang Brother Pizza isn’t just a food truck—it’s a spectacle with pizzaiolos slinging top-tier pies from vintage fire trucks. Over a decade ago, San Diegan Kevin Spenla stumbled upon a vintage fire truck on eBay, built it into a pizza oven with zero experience, and launched the business at a bike race, feeding 20,000 cyclists in his first week. Now with a fleet of fire truck pizza ovens and the wild Pizza Camp experience (complete with a rooftop beer garden), Dang Brother combines the thrill of novelty with legitimately good pizza, proving that great food and a memorable vibe make a winning combo for this veteran-owned business.
