To Our Fatty Family,
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all of the continued love, support, and encouragement you have shown Fat Elbows over the years. Every plate ordered, every post shared, every kind word spoken, and every time you showed up for us has helped us grow into what we are today.
We do not take it lightly that you choose to support our family, our food, and our dream. You have been more than customers to us. You have truly become part of the Fat Elbows family.
Because of you, we get to keep serving good food, big plates, and real Southern love. We are forever grateful, and we look forward to feeding you for many more years to come.
With love and appreciation,
Fat Elbows Southern Cuisine and Catering




In 2022 Andrea and John Rankins, affectionately known as Suga Mama and Paw-Paw, drizzled a dream on their family. This dream rose faster than fresh baked bread. It was then, Fat Elbows Southern Cuisine and Catering was born. The Rankins family decided to venture into the food truck business as a way to bring their culinary passion to the streets of Baton Rouge. Opening their family-owned and operated food truck, "Fat Elbows," they proudly serve plates full to the brim with soul food, delighting their customers with flavors that evoke comfort and nostalgia. From navigating permits and licenses to crafting a diverse menu, they were determined to create a unique dining experience that would bring joy and satisfaction to their customers. The food truck not only allows them to share their love for cooking, but also connects them with their community, creating a harmonious blend of food, culture, and heartfelt hospitality. And remember, If the Elbows NOT FAT, send that PLATE BACK.
