[Unconventional Picnic Delights: The Pilgrim's Pride Roadside Oasis]

Take a quirky detour on US 271 between Pittsburg and Mt. Pleasant to discover one of Texas' most unique roadside picnic areas. Nestled at Pilgrim's Pride's frozen chicken distribution center, this picnic spot offers more than just a place to dine. Under a canopy adorned with a mammoth likeness of company founder Lonnie "Bo" Pilgrim, you'll find a charming statue of him reading the Bible alongside his beloved pet chicken, Henrietta. Experience an offbeat picnic experience, where history and whimsy converge in a truly memorable setting.
