"There appeared to be no sense of maple to be found in the snack, as it was very cherry-forward. The pieces were very red in color and had a stick-to-the-roof-of-your-mouth feel to them. The fruity essences were very overpowering, and didn't taste sour or too sweet. But there was an artificial tang to it, and the bites of meat were hard to chomp down on. The saccharine cherry flavor came from juice concentrate and didn't hit the mark."
"Another one of the worst jerky bags at Buc-ee's, is their ghost pepper variety. While the container is intended for spice lovers, the jerky is actually full of an ungodly amount of heat. One would need gallons of milk and ice water to keep from getting overheated. Not a good idea to eat when you're spending endless amounts of time in a car on the road."
"One of the gas station chain's other most-hated jerkies is their Old Western-style peppered flavor. The package may seems simple enough with just salt, sugar, and pepper seasoning, but apparently it does not have a great melt-in-your-mouth texture. The consistency is very dehydrated and hard to chew, making it seem like the bag is way past its expiration date. The black pepper taste also"
Buc-ee's cherry maple beef jerky combines sweet maple flavor with tart cherry notes and is widely disliked by tasters. Reviewers reported a cherry-forward profile with no discernible maple, a sticky, mouth-coating texture, an artificial tang, and bites that were hard to chomp. The saccharine cherry flavor comes from juice concentrate and did not balance sourness or sweetness. Additional poorly received varieties include ghost pepper, which delivers an ungodly amount of heat requiring gallons of milk and ice water, and Old Western-style peppered jerky, which is dehydrated, hard to chew, and dominated by black pepper.
