No longer a Buc-ees virgin
Calhoun, GA The vibe was very much 1960s “South of the Border” SC. A frenzied electricity was in the air, wide eyed people milling all about. I bought a mug for $6 and a brisket sammich for $9. The brisket lives up to what the lounge has said. Only complaint: I expected boiled peanuts and found none.

I’ve seen the peanuts near the jerky area, at the SC store.

Boiled peanuts are a southern thing, not a Texas thing.

One of the few southern things I just have to disagree with

Sure if I like them or not.

Yup. You can also easily find them in Florida.
I've seen signs for them in Virginia too.
