Buccees is just a gas station. amirite?

Their brisket sandwiches are arguably better than some of the fast food options you might pass by on a road trip. Plus, the bathrooms are guaranteed to be spotless, unlike many other gas stations. I would agree that it's become somewhat of a tourist trap these days.

Bathrooms? Yeah. Nice. Their brisket sandwiches are a crime against Texas and should be prosecuted to the maximum

You yelling about it doesn't change that it's still a roadside attraction during road trips You act like all they sell and do is gas, they have much more, hence the attraction portion of it.

Well. You thinking buying comics dumb is certainly your opinion! Not sure if it's an unpopular one or not. Just hope you realize comics and buccees have nothing to do with eachother……

Your responses are the ones that come across as angry. Somebody calmly explains why they like bucees, and you respond like it was a personal attack on you

lol so true. When I was in high school (2008-2012) I remember my friends were astonished I'd never been to Buccees at the time. Buccees also wasn't as plentiful. I was like "y'all need to chill. It's just a gas station. Not Disney world" I've since been to Buccees many times (and Disney world once) and though it is nicer than most gas stations, it's still just a gas station 😂

You don't have to like the opinion. That's what makes it unpopular.

The food there is above avg quality for restaurants. Ppl have this weird idea of popular things for no reason. I can guarantee you if you put a buccee's pulled pork sandwich next to some 8/10 place, the buccees would be better in price and quality.

It's a gas station

by Elviebalistreri 3 months ago

Yeah and they cook their bbq on site. Half the restaurants in america orders frozen meals and sells them to diners.

by FoldFlat7109 3 months ago

Yeah there are plenty of gas stations that have mini restaurants in them. Here in Texas we also have Laredo taco in a lot of Valero's and they have pretty decent tacos. It's nothing special to have food at a gas station.

The difference is crappy gas station fast food verses restaurant quality food

Why are you going to a gas station for food?

by Elviebalistreri 3 months ago

Almost no one goes to Buccees as their destination, they're in the middle of nowhere If I'm on a road trip and need to eat and have the option between McDonalds or high quality barbecue at Buccees, why would I choose crappy fast food?

by Anonymous 3 months ago

I challenge you to find one other gas station chain in the entire continental US that has fresh, never frozen, cooked in house BBQ. Buccees is literally the only one

by Strict_Island 3 months ago

If you're going to a gas station for bbq…..I feel sad for you. Also, Laredo taco, as I previously stated, cooks all their food fresh on site. Massive offset smokers outside. It's not bbq but it's fresh food.

by Elviebalistreri 3 months ago

Yeah, and the sandwiches are pretty good

"I'm right because I know"

by Anonymous 3 months ago

The irony in your argument is hilarious. You're also asserting that you're correct because you know more than me. I was simply pointing out that I love around a number of buccees so maybe i have more experience with this gas station informing my opinions.

by Elviebalistreri 3 months ago

I'm not arguing that I'm correct, I'm arguing that you're wrong. Unless you feel like revealing a study of inbred people in buccees, you have no ground to stand on beyond "I'm from Texas"

by Curtisgrimes 3 months ago

Well, yes it is. It's never been sold as anything but a gas station. It just happens to be giant sized. People like stuff like this, clearly. If I was to travel with the family and we came across one we'd be thrilled too.

by mariloukonopels 3 months ago

Like if I was on a road trip and needed gas and saw that there was one coming up, I would go. I agree with that the gas station being a destination is weird. They opened one about an hour north of me that is between denver and ft collins, it's wild to me that people made the drive to check it out. I think the same about folks waiting in these insane lines for in n out when they opened here. It's just a fast food place.
