Ham Orchards is a peach farm, market, BBQ joint, and MUST VISIT destination in North Texas. It's…read morebeen over a decade since my original visit, and a fun road trip with friends on a beautiful weekend in May resulted in an experience that made me question why it took over 10 years to return. My Overall Rating - 5 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - Pro Tip #1 - try to get there before 11:30 AM and plan your visit in May. Ham Orchards gets really busy at noon, and Texas gets really hot in June. There's plenty of parking (dirt lot), tons of people (and families), and you'll hear a musician or two playing on the guitar. 1 Star. Service - The staff is super nice. There's a market with dedicated peach soft serve lines as well as a separate building for BBQ. The two are separate, so you don't have to eat the BBQ at Ham Orchards if you only want to shop at the market. Upon entering the market, a very friendly and helpful staff member will help answer questions and guide you. 1 Star. Food - Ham Orchards is a peach farm, so I recommend you order anything that is peach infused. I went with the Peach Pulled Pork. The pork was very tender, the buns were lightly toasted, and the Peach Pulled Pork was sweet and tender. But the star of this trip was the Peach Infused Pickles. Wow, this condiment turned my "meh" potato salad into a peach infused bite that was peach sweet, pickle tart, and potato creamy. I also bought a full-sized Peach Pie from the market home. It was very good (and perfect for my Instagram feed). Pro Tip #2 - if you want to buy a pie, purchase it from the market before you eat lunch, otherwise they may be sold out. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. Next time, I won't let 11 years pass between my visit to Ham Orchards. The road trip was super fun, the BBQ was tasty, and the pie I took home was a great reminder that some of the best destinations are a short road trip outside of Dallas. 1 Star

Nice experience. Need about 1.5 hours max. No u-pick so you're coming for the restaurant and/or…read moremarket. Restaurant is order at the counter with plenty of covered outdoor seating. Highlight is the peach pulled pork sandwich. There's a self-serve area for bbq sauce, drinks like sodas and peach sweet tea, pickles, onions, and utensils. Market has fresh produce, packaged goods, souvenirs, pies, frozen meals, and ice cream. They sell the ice cream as soft serve or frozen for takeaway with peach, strawberry, or swirl flavors. Peaches are sold as a basket of about 8-10 for $10, "seconds" bag (20-30 peaches) for $13, or "overripe" basket (20-30 peaches) for $11.

Traveling home after doing some work in Texas and saw the sign. Why not? Glad I did. It was…read morecafeteria style which makes it hard for the choices. I decided on the 1 meat platter with 2 sides. The 4 ribs were so tender and very well seasoned. I did try one with the sauce but no sauce is needed. The Mac and cheese was good but the potato salad tastes similar to what my grandma used to make. Now that I'm full, I get an ice cream cone that comes with the meal. There's also free refills but I only opted for water. Everyone was patience and very friendly. If you are stopping by Terrell (whether coming or going) then I would recommend to stop by.

The sign inside indicates that they have been serving Texas since 1974. The ribs and brisket both were right on spot. My friend stated his chicken and the baked potato was also good. We will stop again if craving BBQ and in this part of Texas. You enter and go through a cafeteria style line and the folks serving are very friendly and helpful! Local celebrities have eaten here such as Governor Rick Perry and Owner Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys.

6/10 Disclaimer!!!! I don't believe in 10's since I consider that perfect! It's my opinion but you…read moreshould still give it a try if you're interested. I have been wanting to try this place since I moved in the area and today I was able too. The ladies are nice, but it's hard to hear them with the generator on. The price for a 3 meat plate was around $24 the serving is decent even tho the plates feel small but once you open it's a good amount. I like supporting small businesses but I feel like if I'm going to spend that much money as the chain spots I want a little more "ummmppphhhh" for my buck. Brisket felt a little dry but eatable. The smoked sausage stole the show for me it was great! And the pulled pork tasted around the same as other bbq spots. This forney are is still being expanded so the ambiance wasn't as good but it can only get better! Give it a try and let me know what Y'all think!

I'm obsessed with Buc-ee's! It's a must-stop if you're in Texas. It's a massive travel center, with…read moresome locations having over 100 pumps. They've even expanded beyond Texas to places like Tennessee and Northern Virginia. Everything is kept clean, especially the bathrooms. This particular location is on the smaller side, so I can't even imagine how huge the larger locations are. There's a wide variety of souvenirs from apparel and home goods to even pet items. Towards the back, you'll find a deli, a wall of specialty beef jerky, tons of snacks, plus brisket sandwiches and desserts, including fudge. We ended up spending a good amount of time here before getting back on the road. You can sample the jerky. I really liked the Honey Jalapeño and Maple Cherry (on the sweeter side). And don't leave without grabbing the beaver nuggets!

If you're driving on a Texas highway and see a Buc-ee's sign, exit - even if you don't need gas. My Overall Rating - 4 1/2 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Facility, Return) Atmosphere - Buc-ee's is big, busy, and always crowded. If you're an introvert, I recommend you stay in the car. Walking into a Buc-ees is like walking into a Walmart. Same lighting, same item you can buy, and tons of people. 1/2 Stars. Service - Hats off to the Buc-ee's staff, because while it's always super crowded, I've never had to wait long because there are so many checkout stations and the staff are so nice and helpful. Everyone, from the staff making the BBQ to the fudge counter, everyone is super helpful. 1 Star. Facility - The bathrooms at Buc-ee's have earned legendary status. They're clean, the line moves fast, and it leaves you plenty of time to shop for....ANYTHING. Need pool supplies? Check. Flamin' Hot Cheetos? Check. Cookies? Check. Clothes? Check. You get the idea. The staff chops up fresh brisket sandwiches for you to grab and go. For me? I always grab the sugar roasted pecans. I can eat a cone of these sweet, warm treats in one sitting. Oh, Buc-ee's has gas too. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. I'll plan my road trips around spending time at Buc-ee's. It's always a great rest stop where I can refuel my car and my body. 1 Star.
