Landon Brockmeyer, the self proclaimed “Hot Dog Slayer,” grew up in Lawrenceville and has lived in Hall County for over 10 years. He owns the most recent food truck to enter the Hall County food truck scene with his business The Hot Dog Ninja.
The Hot Dog Ninja cart has been spotted all over Hall County serving up piping hot street food like the Chilinator, a hotdog with chili, jalapenos and sour cream, the Pimento Cheese Dream hot dog and many more.
“The love of food and the fact that I love serving people is what led me to this new venture,” Landon said.
Outside of Landon’s work life, he has been married to Lisa for 11 years and they have a 10 year old daughter, Lauren.
We recently caught up with Landon to find out more about his love of the area and his interests.
