Chuck Wagon - A chuck wagon is a type of wagon specially built for carrying and preparing food. Chuck wagons are probably best recognized by their back, which has a drop-down tail gate that covers drawers and other storage compartments when moving, and that serves as a work surface or table when opened up and dropped down. Chuck wagons originated in the American West during the 1700s for use during cattle drives.
