"In between filling up and hitting the amenities, score a full feast at this popular Texas road stop which doubles as a barbecue restaurant. Brisket, turkey, pulled pork, and baby back ribs are all available by the half pound, plus find traditional style sides like coleslaw, potato salad, and creamed corn. Kicking off a road trip at the crack of dawn? Fuel up at Rudy’s, and stock up on breakfast tacos for the ride." - Megha McSwain, Brittany Britto Garley
