SPECIAL PROFILE

A Passion For Popcorn

Great Things are Popping at Outer Banks Popcorn Shoppe

Things are popping all along the Outer Banks, especially (and literally) at Outer Banks Popcorn Shoppe. Owner Ted Jagucki is elevating the popcorn game with his made from scratch small-batch offerings in a variety of unique and mouth watering flavors.

Ted moved from northern Ohio to the Outer Banks in 2004. “I saw a need for locally-made snacks and no one was producing and selling gourmet popcorn here yet.” He grew up loving popcorn, and has always loved to cook, experiment and create in the kitchen. “We focus on taking raw ingredients and turning them into excellent flavor combinations for our customers. That’s why we cook onsite in each of our stores.”

They ship their delicious popcorn to anywhere in the United States with their online shopping platform and also help organizations fundraise for causes locally and nationwide.

Running a business for that long is no easy feat. Jagucki attributes the success of the Popcorn Shoppe to the loyal returning customers each year. “We try to offer an experience when you are in our stores. People are surprised by our generous samples and variety of more than 20 flavors”.

When a customer walks into Outer Banks Popcorn Shoppe, their senses are immediately met with the smell of rich buttery caramel and candy coated delights. That tantalizing caramel recipe is used to create many of their delicious flavors. Their best sellers are Drizzle–a caramel popcorn drizzled with white and milk chocolate—and Corolla Crunch, which perfectly pairs their homemade caramel with candied almonds and cashews.

While the comforts of caramel are tempting, Outer Banks Popcorn Shoppe also has an array of one-of-a-kind flavors, including dill, bacon-n-cheese, jalapeno cheddar, and even watermelon, as well as a Flavor of the Month and seasonal flavors.

“That’s the fun part. A lot of people are like, ‘I’ve never seen or heard of anything like this. How do you have all these different flavors of popcorn?’ People are sort of blown away.”

Brew Thru

Brew Thru

No trip to the Outer Banks is complete without cruising through Brew Thru, the Outer Banks’ original drive thru convenience store. Whether you’re looking for a refreshing cold beverage of Coke, Pepsi and other soft drinks on the go, stocking up your cooler with refreshments to enjoy at the beach or piling up on beer and wine for a party, Brew Thru is a fun and unique experience all vacationers need to see for themselves.

Drive-Through Beer & Gear

Brew Thru is Your One-Stop Shop at the Beach

The year was 1977, and Dana and Becky Lawrentz were chatting with friends over brews in their hometown of Akron, Ohio. They got to talking about a gas station convenience store in the area that had built a makeshift drive-through. Everyone agreed it would be pretty great if you could actually drive through a convenience store and pick up everything you needed without getting out of the car. But what would you call a place like that?

Well, you’d call it a Brew Thru.

It was an idea they couldn’t shake, so the Lawrentzes moved to the Outer Banks and built the first Brew Thru with the help of a partner. The idea was that people could come buy everything they would need for their trip to the beach—beer, wine, soft drinks, snacks, ice—without getting out of the car. That same year, a t-shirt salesman visiting the store and talked them into adding t-shirts to their product line—and 44 years later there are now more than five million Brew Thru t-shirts out in the wild.

The Lawrentzes’ daughter Brandy and her husband Philip Foreman purchased the business from them in 2002, and they now operate five locations across the Outer Banks.“We love being the one-stop shop for folks on the way to their beach house,” Foreman says. “Our car tenders are the friendliest people at the beach. We’re here to greet you, get you everything you need for your trip, load it up in the trunk for you, and have you leaving with a smile on your face.”

The store is quite expansive, featuring more than 100 brands of beer, dozens of wines and even a vast selection of cigars—not to mention all the snacks, t-shirts and other gear. To make ordering a little easier, customers in line get a menu—fondly known as the Summer-y—that outlines everything available at the store. These Summer-ies are also available in many of the beach rentals, which allows vacationers to decide what they want before driving through.

For customers who would like to get out and stretch their legs, there’s the Brew Thru Shop in Kill Devil Hills, where you can find their world famous t-shirts and other gifts. New t-shirt designs are created each year, making a yearly Brew Thru t-shirt a favorite of locals and annual visitors to the Outer Banks.

The Foremans both grew up in the Outer Banks, and they love that Brandy’s parents’ vision for a friendly and convenient place for people to grab their brews and other beach stay essentials is continuing to flourish.

“Our family has been welcoming people to the Outer Banks since 1977,” Foreman says. “We love this beautiful place, and we want everybody to get to enjoy it.”
