Posted by The El Shuko Truck is making a permanent move from Las Vegas to L.A. some time in the new year, but in the mean time angelenos can catch some of the Guatemala goodness this weekend at a special pop-up, and it sounds delicious.
El Shuko Truck specializes in Guatemalan hot dogs, known as shucos. Their signature dog, the el chapin, features a beef frank, avocado spread called guacamol, mayo, boiled cabbage, mustard and ketchup. Try the Guatemalan longaniza sausage or pork adobo if you like your food on the spicier side.

There’s also a tasty sounding cherote dog, a carne asada based dog topped with chimichurri.
All dogs have the option of being served on a toasted bun OR mixtas style, where all ingredients are wrapped inside a corn tortilla like a hot dog taco.

Aside from the mouth watering dogs, the truck offers traditional Guatemalan street food, like beet and ground meat tostadas called enchiladas, small corn husk tamales called chuchitos, tostadas topped with a variety of items including ceviche, beans and even noodles!? as seen on their Instagram.
