    Why would I want to buy briskett and eat it in the car.

    May as well brag "Oh, well, Lonny-Lu's off of I-29 has the best lasagna! They're slopping it onto wet plates and hollering 24-7!"

    One thing to buy 144 oz and have to piss for the rest of the road trip. Another thing to eat a hot plate that'll make you shit on your 400-mile journey.

    This just made me think about the Buc-ee, In N Out, Raisin Canes, and CFA I saw outside of Texas Motor Speedway. If aliens ever reveal themselves . I wouldn’t take them to the White House. I’d take them there. It would explain everything.

    It’s a sandwich. It’s not hard to eat and keeps you on the road. It’s no different getting a chicken sandwich at a fast food joint. Instead of stopping and having a long meal, it’s just more convenient. To eat on the go on road trips

    Stews is the greatest trap grocery store of all time. They perfected the grocery maze and what was supposed to be a quick run in to the store turns into a 2 hour shopping spree full of free samples, animatronics, and a cart full of stuff you never intended to buy. The ice cream at the dairy bar hit different after spending $200 and an entire afternoon in a grocery store. Stews is the Disney world of grocery stores.

    I don’t know if they sell straight up brisket plates there. We just get the sandwiches. The smoked meat and cheese cups are also clutch. I’ve never actually ordered anything there from the kiosks. I always get the pre-made stuff for sandwiches.

    Yeah it’s pretty good. I mean they smoke them out back and slice them up for the sandwiches. It’s not winning any BBQ competitions but it’s way better than anything else you could get outside of legit BBQ spots. I go with the meat cheese cups and one of the square pre-made turkey sandwiches usually.

    Yes. It won't be the best you've ever had, but you wouldn't complain if you got it at most BBQ places. If nothing else, it's light years better than your typical hand-held on-the-go options when you are traveling. It works great as a breakfast burrito mixed with some eggs. Plus, they churn through it pretty fast. It's always fresh out of the smoker.

    Yeah if you go around lunch they’re slicing and making them and just handing them straight to you fresh. Get that and a bag of the homemade kettle chips and it’s a great meal when traveling.

    Never been to a wawa but they definitely have kiosks at Buccees where you can order different stuff from the pre-made bbq sandwiches.

    I got to Buccees on the beach express after a concert in Orange Beach. They didn't have the pre-made sandwiches so I ordered from the kiosk. Got super fresh, super hot, chili cheese fries at like midnight. Definitely worth it in that situation.

    Wawa sandwiches are good. Bucees has a similar ordering system but sandwiches aren’t quite as good as Wawa imo

    Had Buc-ee's brisket sandwich for lunch today. I was promised great brisket. I got some chopped meat, covered in so much fucking sweet bbq sauce it could've been raw pig dicks and I would never know. Fuck that sandwich.

    Great brisket my ass. FOH you asshole beaver.

    Chopping brisket is just a stupid thing to do. It's a decent sandwich for a gas station but Buccee's it's not that good.
