They revived Jerry's grandmother Maude Pletcher's original recipe and "the family tradition of selling fried pies." There are currently numerous locations across Arkansas, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, and now Hobbs, NM. The Hobbs location is inside the brand new Swift Stop convenience store on the Lovington Highway. They have their on counter and glass cases on the north end of the building. These aren't pies in a tin pan. They're hand pies. So you can definitely eat them on the go. While I did not see any savory pies, they offer multiple flavors in the cream or sweet variety. They also have "no sugar added" options. And because the employees were no present when we were at the counter, we headed to the freezer section on the south end of the building. I opted for blackberry. My oldest daughter chose blueberry. My youngest gravitated towards vanilla. These are usually $3.99 fresh out of the oven or kept warm under the display, but I think because we got ours from the freezer they were $2 each. These beautifully prepared hand pies were perfectly cooked. Not greasy at all. For frozen pies, just stick them in the fridge the night before reheating. Cream pies won't go in the oven of course, but you could room temperature thaw them. I didn't do try that this time because pies tend to get soggy that way. For fruit pies, reheat them for 25-35 minutes at 350°F. My oven usually cooks everything too fast. Mine was ready at about 22 minutes. I can't wait to try pineapple pie next!

A second trailer just like is on the Lovington Highway near Green Meadows Park. I always go for the #15 shrimp fried rice ($14). Their fried rice is the best in town. The amount of shrimp is fairly decent. I came kind of an off hour at close to 3 PM, so the food probably wasn't the freshest, but it was still really tasty. The shrimp is a bit overcooked. Takeout boxes come with an egg roll, fork, napkins, and condiments. Service is always fantastic. The guy who was at this trailer is often at the Pandita Express #2 trailer. He speaks both Spanish and English. So here's how it works here: Order. Pay. You'll be assigned a buzzer. Food usually is prepared very quickly. Perfect for my hangry butt.

My oldest kiddo ordered a bacon cheeseburger ($14). She was bummed when she realized it came out minus the bacon and we were already on the road at that point. Both of these separately boxed items came with shoestring fries. The fries were of the frozen variety, but they were cooked nicely with a slight crunch. I highly suggest that they come up with something to set them apart from all the other food trucks with their fries. LITTLE YELPER'S CLUB No kid's plates on the menu the day we ordered. SERVICE A very nice young man took our order on 3/9/2024. MY FAVORITE PART... The patties were juicy and not overcooked. NOT SO FAVORITE PART... They forgot my daughter's bacon.

My little brother claims that their food isn't as good as it used to be. It's a bit of a dive place, but there are hardly any other choices in Eunice. It still tastes the same to me. Thin burger patties like I like them. Crispy tater tots like I like them. They have that nice pea-sized ice that is funny to chomp on too. Oh, and their sodas have always been fresh. All fizz. Free refills. The service is okay. There is usually at least 5 people waiting in line at the drive-thru. And lots of Eunice people seem to pick up their orders to go. But we like sitting inside where it's nice and cool. The TV may be set to a ball game or the news. Honestly, the neatest thing I like is the table tops. Local advertisements are lacquered on them. Because I grew up around the area and am familiar with most of the companies, it's funny to look at the bad designs of the ads. The restrooms are not the best, but what more could you expect from such a tiny oilfield & uranium enrichment plant town? I'll miss the simplicity of this place for sure. Review #88

I had a grilled chicken sandwich and a medium soft serve cone. The chicken sandwich was pretty basic, not great but also not bad, basically it hit the spot. However, the soft serve was really good. This place really reminds me of Dairy Queen. The staff, which consisted mostly of high school kids, were very nice. The prices were very reasonable and the place is clean. I would definitely return if I pass through Eunice again.

I opted for the #15 shrimp fried rice ($13). Their fried rice is mouthwatering delicious. Beneath all my rice was even more shrimp. I didn't count them, but it was more than I could handle in one setting. They really loaded my takeout box! It also came with an egg roll, fork, napkins, and condiments. So appreciated. My daughters' great grandmother on their dad's side used to make me egg foo young. This outfit makes it too! Might have to try theirs for nostalgia as I never make it at home. Awesome service. Order. Pay. They assign you a handheld buzzer. My food came out in less than the estimated 5 minutes. The only thing I would change is to add prices to their menu. Huge fan!

My significant other helped him. Our bill came out to $1,055.14. No deposit was required. They simply asked that I call in on the day of the delivery to provide a card number over the phone. Our guests were pleasantly surprised & some even took home leftovers! Yes, I recommend them & would do it all over again. The most difficult part was ordering with a newbie over the phone. Lol.
