About MakyJames Grill
Comfort food classics are the name of the game at MakyJames Grill. This food truck is bringing a host of feel-good fare to residents across Boise, ID in need of a pick-me-up in the form of a whopping burger or a plate of chicken fingers. Sometimes, all you want are the classics, and you’ll find ‘em in spades here.
Burger lover? There’s loads of classic burgers here, served up piping hot and suited up with fixings you know and love like bacon, BBQ sauce, and cheddar cheese. Passion for poultry? Grab a grilled chicken sandwich or an order of golden brown chicken strips. Don’t forget a side of fries, of course. Getting hungry? Then we have good news. MakyJames Grill caters, so have ‘em out to your next event.

The Sauce Boss — A 100% beef quarter pound burger smothered in cheddar cheese and topped with bacon, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and red onions all slathered in ranch and BBQ sauce as a finishing touch.

What is the story behind your business' name?
MakyJames is the combination of my younger brother’s name (Mak) and my name (James). My mother wanted to use our names since it is a family business.
Where did you learn to cook?
My business partner, who is also my mother, learned to cook from doing it as a hobby her whole life. We call call her the "Grill Queen.”
Why did you decide to start your business?
We started MakyJames Grill after my mother’s first food trailer, which was specialty dessert and dinner waffles, called Waffle Addiction.
Who encouraged you the most to start your own business?
My mother had already started doing waffles and wanted to expand into a larger customer base, so we came up with the idea to do grilled and fried foods.
What's your favorite event that you've catered for?
We don't have a specific event, but we really enjoy doing school carnivals! It's great to see all the kids excited to scarf down our food.
What is your favorite dish on the menu?
The Sauce Boss, which is a pepper jack bacon cheeseburger with ranch and sweet chipotle BBQ sauce.
