Living in the West Coast, I avoided gas station food at all cost, it's a no go. Now that I live in the South, man some of the best food is at gas stations owned by mom and pops. There's always a small line at this gas stations deli, so you know they got the goods. These dude's sell fresh seafood, you can it cooked, or fresh. I always go by here on my way home from Louisiana.
When I'm talking about a road trip snack, I'm not talking about slim Jim's, day old burger, or chips. I'm talking crab legs, shrimp, crawfish pies, fresh fried juicy catfish! Boiled shrimp was cooked perfectly, wasn't overcooked swimming in that seasoning. They were frying shrimp and catfish when I walked in. $10 for a box of 5 catfish filets, and 10 jumbo shrimp, it was nice and crispy, needed a tad more seasoning, but great price! Catfish was big, and it was flaky juicy goodness. Giant Turkey wing for $2.49 so why not? Add that to my cart I wasn't a huge fan of it, but it wasn't bad. This is my snack before dinner
1 crawfish meat pie
1/2lb boiled shrimp
5 fried catfish filet
10 jumbo fried fish
1 giant turkey wing's a little under $20 after tax. read more
