RANKED: 5 Best Gas Station Eats in Northern Colorado

Is gas station food getting better in Colorado? Or am I becoming more trashy?

On the mornings that I make breakfast for myself, I feel like a rockstar.

Quick Critique of Buc-ee's

I did enjoy the food at Buc-ee's, but I was pretty disappointed with their breakfast burrito. The burrito cost me double what a breakfast burrito would have cost me at the Maverik by my home.

The breakfast burrito was half the size and lacking in flavor.

I also tried the Beaver Nuggets and the brisket sandwich. I will admit, I am not much of a BBQ person. But goodness gracious that brisket sandwich was amazing.
