I've also got similar request and in response briefly mentioned that
Boubaker polynomials B_n(X) are expressed in terms of Lucas
polynomials:

B_n(X) = U_n(X,1) + 3 * U_{n-2}(X,1)    for n>=2.

They do not look any special to me (we can easily construct zillions
of similar polynomial sequences) - so I don't understand buzz about
them.
