Did you catch the Golden Corral Chevrolet’s new look this weekend? It’s our celebration of U.S. Military service members. Since our founding in 1973, we’ve been proud to support all U.S. Military and their families, and we’ve been honored to work closely with our 3 military philanthropic partners during the past 25 years.

As of 2025, Golden Corral has helped raise over $40 million dollars for our partners, Disabled American Veterans, Camp Corral, and Project Healing Waters. Thank you for honoring our service member JebBurtonRacing. And thank you to all who serve!

Good luck to Jeb and the Golden Corral  #27 Chevrolet at today’s inaugural race on Naval Base Coronado in San Diego. As ...

Good luck to Jeb and the Golden Corral #27 Chevrolet at today’s inaugural race on Naval Base Coronado in San Diego.

As a special thank you to our hosts for today’s race, this military-inspired paint scheme was designed in part by a Senior Executive, and proud Navy veteran here at Golden Corral, to honor both the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps communities, as well as the 3 military philanthropic partners we work with to support all U.S. Military and their families.

Want a closer look at Golden Corral Chevrolet’s honorees?

The driver’s side primarily honors the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps Aviation communities and the ships they operate from, including:
USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78), the Navy’s newest aircraft carrier
USS Wasp (LHD-1), once captained by our Senior Executive’s late father
H-60 Seahawk helicopter, flown by our Senior Executive’s brother and father

The passenger side primarily honors the Surface Warfare community, including:
USS San Diego (LPD-22) to thank our race’s host city and
USS Philippine Sea (CG-58), the recently decommissioned ship that our Senior Executive once served on

The deck lid primarily honors U.S. Navy SEALs, and a special thank you to a Golden Corral Board Member’s 2 sons who served as U.S. Navy SEALs.

The TV panel primarily honors the submarine community, featuring the newest fast-attack submarine USS Idaho (SSN-799), and Golden Corral’s 3 military philanthropic partners Disabled American Veterans, Camp Corral, and Project Healing Waters.

Thank you to all U.S. Military and their families for your service & sacrifice, and thanks for making us proud with today’s special tribute, JebBurtonRacing!

With their "The Only One for Everyone" tagline, they truly live up to their promise of catering to everyone's taste buds.
