Stuntpig: Sandwiches Like No Other! Food truck concept that has found a tiny (but mighty!) home in Squirrel Hill, and it’s serving up some of the most delicious, crave-worthy sandwiches around. Their mission? To deliver bold, creative twists on classic sandwich staples — and they absolutely nail it. Everything is made from scratch, from their perfectly prepared meats to the house-made pickles, sauces, and garnishes. Their rotating menu keeps things fresh and seasonal, and the flavors are next level. Think bold, inventive combinations that make your taste buds sit up and pay attention. Some highlights I got to try: The Pitt Beef – My favorite of the bunch! Smoked, rosy beef piled high with sweet Vidalia onions and horseradish cream, served cold. It's simple, smart, and bursting with flavor. Mr. Nice Guy (Grandma June’s Crabcake) – A killer crabcake sandwich with Old Bay aioli, fresh arugula, and a grilled lemon. Absolutely delicious. The Spot's Salad – Honestly, a standout. Crisp greens, pickled beets, baked chèvre, candied walnuts, and a honey yogurt vinaigrette. Bright, fresh, and balanced. On the Bone – Pig Wings – Tender suckling pork shanks glazed with chile caramel and finished with cilantro, mint, and peanuts. Sweet, spicy, and finger-licking good. The menu is small but has exactly what you need— and they’re thoughtful about including options for kids, vegetarians, and gluten-free eaters. Bonus points: they deep fry nothing. That’s right — big flavor without the fryer. All in all, Stuntpig is a gem. It’s worth the hype and absolutely worth the adventure to...
Read moreIt's always really cool to get to visit a restaurant that is very clearly going to be great for a long time when it's brand new. Stuntpig is delicious and the folks working here are incredibly friendly. The three of us grabbed 3 different sandwiches. I had the Mr Nice Guy (a crab cake sandwich), and in our group, we also had the Mr Orange and the Murray Turkey. Each sandwich was incredibly unique and had great flavor. The little squirt of grilled lemon really stepped the Mr Nice Guy up. My favorite was the Mr Orange, but each person in the group had a different favorite. Also, their homemade hot sauce was delicious. The only things about this place that weren't glaringly positive was the Mr Nice Guy was lacking structural integrity and became mushy and sloppy pretty quickly. Also there is no AC and it was actually hotter in the shop than it was outside. Otherwise, it...
Read moreStunt Pig has the best sandwich I have ever had. Dare I say... Squirrel Hill's best bite? I ordered the 'lil Jawn sandwich and it did not disappoint. It consisted of roast pork marinated in Sicilian oregano, fennel and orange, grilled broccoli rabe, sharp provolone, and hot pepper mayo pressed on a buttered Big Marty's sesame bun.
When I say that my cosmic chakra was reoriented and my taste buds were forever altered, I am not exaggerating. The customer service is great and my food came out quick and HOT. My friend ordered the Mr. Orange, which consisted of pulled chicken, spicy Piri Piri sauce, briny cucumbers, and Chimichurri aioli. He gave nothing but praise. Pitt Panthers, CMU Tartans- do yourself a favor and visit the Stunt Pig. Their menu rotates frequently so get the hits while...
