    I remember Kelly's, and The Derrick, out there at Greenwood before you got to the state line.

    We just can't have nice things...

    Yesway seems to be taking over everything in West Texas. They bought the old Rip Griffin's in Lubbock, and they even bought out Allsup's. But they were smart enough to not mess with the burritos.

    Those burritos were off the chain. I haven't had on in many years now.

    Got ham & eggs there. Meal came on two plates. Eggs potatoes and toast on one. Slab of ham about 1/2" thick completely filled the other. Had enough ham left for a couple of nice sandwiches later.

    I would sometimes forgo an egg breakfast for a couple of days knowing I would be at a place that had superior country ham and eggs, decent hashbrowns with a little sausage gravy on top.
    7 Places that come to mind.

    Queen City Truck Stop Exit 150 I-20/59 Meridian MS
