Most evil thing I've discovered in Texas

[baboon]

Whatever you do .... DO NOT EAT THE BREAKFAST TACOS.

Not a chance. I generally buy 3-4 brownies for breakfast for days to come. I really miss the individual pineapple upside down cakes. I found avoiding the fudge was in my best interest too. To many varieties of combinations I like.


The very first bu-cees I stepped foot in was on 288 on the way to the gun club. The first hot food I bought was a Chicago dog that took way to long to make. I might have gotten 2 bites before tossing it.

The one on the way to the Y.O. always got $80.00-$100.00 just inside without cigarettes.

Have to go to West to get kolaches. And even in West there is only one good bakery.

Hillje works. Best thing I had in West was a Cream Cheese iced Brownie at that one good bakery.

Ha! Just wait till the OP discovers these!

Make a paste of Adolph’s plain meat tenderizer & ammonia. Ammonia kills the itch, meat tenderizer dissolves the sores.

I never understood how Bucees breakfast tacos are total shit while everything else is decent.

I have never had one or seen inside one. Breakfast tacos could be them using over production of other foods. Watching where the do they chopped sammichs I always that it was not temperature safe.

Pappas Bar B Que had in my mind a great breakfast taco. One of the beer wenches I worked with said they were nasty. She worked in cater end. Said the eggs were powdered.

I dunno. I‘ve never had issue with any of their food. Maybe after the years of city water I have developed a resistance to marginal food. All I can say, is for the money and convenience, it’s quite tasty

Only thing I ever bought at a buccee’s is copenhagen, coffee, or dr pepper. I only ever stopped at one for the shîtters any ways. Seems like now the only ones I pass by are all a pain in the ass to access, look more crowded than New York City, and charge nosebleed prices for gas so I just pass ‘em on by.

 

[Younggun]

I’ll eat their sliced sausage sandwiches if I’m in a bind. Breakfast really is terrible. Taste like the old powdered eggs we got in the army with no salt or pepper.

Beef jerky is ok.


As for donuts, screw shipleys and Crispy crud. The Donut Hut in Whitney, Tx has the best donuts you’ll ever eat.

 

[PinnedandRecessed]

Beef jerky is ok.

1. Bucees Hot & Spicy jerky is pretty damn good. I always go to the counter and ask for a half pound of soft cuts. I prefer it over the bagged stuff.
2. The wife likes their Dr. Pepper ICEE
3. I've never been in a Bucees where the bathrooms weren't clean.
4. Typically, Bucees gas is decently priced if not under the going rate for the stations around it.

ETA: 5. I can say with out a doubt that Round Rock Donuts are overrated.

Try and spot this one…admittedly…this was a 2021 spot. Frucker got me too. Thankfully a gloved had saved my ass.

 

[jrbfishn]

I know I would walk over Krispy Kreme for some Shipley's.

Round Rock Donuts.
Do NOT go there in a hurry. The line starts early and lasts all day.

Ha! I F’d up and put this in the wrong thread- if the mods wish- they’re welcome to put it in Snake spotting. It does kinda fit in this thread too though.

A Californian at a Chili Competition!

---

The notes are from an inexperienced Chili taster named "FRANK", who was
visiting Texas from the West Coast:

Frank: "Recently, I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili
cook-off. The Judge #3 called in sick at the last moment and I happened
to be standing there at the judge's table asking for directions to the
Budweiser truck, when the call came in. I was assured by the other two
judges (Native Texans) that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy and,
besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I
accepted."

Here are the scorecards from the event:

Chili # 1 Mike's Maniac Mobster Monster Chili:
Judge # 1 -- A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick.
Judge # 2 -- Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild.
Judge # 3 -- (Frank) Holy moly, what the 'ell is this stuff? You could
remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the
flames out. I hope that's the worst one. These Texans are crazy.

Chili # 2 Arthur's Afterburner Chili
Judge # 1 -- Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang.
Judge # 2 -- Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken
seriously.
Judge # 3 -- Keep this out of the reach of children. I'm not sure what
I'm supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who
wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more beer
when they saw the look on my face.

Chili # 3 Fred's Famous Burn Down the Barn Chili
Judge # 1 -- Excellent firehouse chili. Great kick. Needs more beans.
Judge # 2 -- A bean less chili, a bit salty, good use of peppers.
Judge # 3 -- Call the EPA. I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels
like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Get
me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my
backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting bat-faced from
all of the beer.

Chili # 4 Bubba's Black Magic
Judge # 1 -- Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing.
Judge # 2 -- Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or
other mild foods, not much of a chili.
Judge # 3 -- I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable
to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the barmaid,
was standing behind me with fresh refills. That 300-LB-er is
starting to look HOT ... . . just like this nuclear waste I'm eating! Is
chili an aphrodisiac?

Chili # 5 Linda's Legal Lip Remover
Judge # 1 -- Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding
considerable kick. Very impressive.
Judge # 2 -- Chili using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must
admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement.
Judge # 3 -- My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I
can no longer focus my eyes. I passed gas and four people behind me needed
paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her
chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by
pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I'm burning my
lips off. It really annoyed me that the other judges asked me to stop
screaming. Damn those rednecks!

Chili # 6 Vera's Very Vegetarian Variety
Judge # 1 -- Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of
spices and peppers.
Judge # 2 -- The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, and
garlic. Superb!
Judge #3-- I soiled myself when I passed gas and I'm worried it will eat
through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that
slut Sally. She must be kinkier than I thought. Can't feel my lips
anymore. I need to wipe my butt with a snow cone.

Chili # 7 Susan's Screaming Sensation Chili
Judge # 1 -- A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers.
Judge # 2 -- Ho hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of
chili peppers at the last moment. I should take note that I am worried
about Judge #3. He appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing
uncontrollably.
Judge # 3 -- You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I
wouldn't feel a thing. I've lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds
like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili, which
slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava like poop to
match my shirt. At least during the autopsy, they'll know what killed
me. I've decided to stop breathing, it's too painful. Screw it; I'm not
getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I'll just suck it in through
the 4-inch hole in my stomach.

Chili # 8 Tommy's Toe-Nail Curling Chili
Judge # 1 -- The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili. Not too
bold but spicy enough to declare its existence.
Judge # 2 -- This final entry is a good, balanced chili. Neither mild
nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge # 3 passed
out, fell over and pulled the chili pot down on top of himself. Not sure
if he's going to make it. Poor dude, wonder how he'd have reacted to
really hot chili?

I'm the only one that likes Krispy Kreme donuts?

I hate 'em. They're too salty.

I know I would walk over Krispy Kreme for some Shipley's.

Shipley's are far worse than Krispy Kreme when it comes to excess salt. I consider them inedible at room temp but tolerable under emergency circumstances if they're straight out of the microwave and hot.

 

[Axxe55]

One thing the big donut chains have going for them is, consistency. They use the same recipe in every establishment. To get really good donuts, ya gotta hit the small family owned places for the best.

 

[Alpha.Geek]

or your junk....

THAT is funny, I went to LA for a work trip, got some crab legs, and my junk started to tingle as I left...

Forgot to wash my hands after the cajun crab legs,
WASH YOUR HANDS FIRST, THEN PEE... then wash again...

 

[Alpha.Geek]

Since I LOVED Cajun chow so much after visiting LA,
I tried Razoo's (fast-food Cajun chow?) in Richardson, and LOVED IT!!!

Now that I am out near Tyler, I might try Razoo's here, but the wife HATES seafood...

THAT place is EVIL, but I likes it...
(AKA evil on the Cyan, and EVIL on the bowels....)

Going back down there in like 2 months with another formerly enlisted Marine coworker from IL,
I THINK we are doing some excessive-drinking and excessive-eating, and might buy another AR while down there...(?)

 

[striker55]

Brother, you are not alone.

Walmart by us sells them. Although fresh out of the oven they melt in your mouth.
