I don’t really like barbecue that much, but even I thought Bucee’s was good. The bathrooms are huge too, so there are no lines there-like 45 stalls and 10 sinks. Bucee’s is like the Disney World of gas stations/pit stops.
I stopped at one recently and there was a line of about 100 women outside the women's bathroom. My wife finally decided she could just hold it until the next stop.
I literally just had my first buckees experience today. The videos don’t do it justice. There is a need for smell o vision. The place smells so very good. You can smell the bakery as soon as you walk through the doors. As I was leaving I crossed paths with a guy that was enjoying entering the building. He just stood there, inhaled deeply, and let his shoulders drop as he announced to his friends that he wanted to bottle that smell. The food is absolutely delicious. That brisket sandwich 🤤 The banana pudding 😋 the warm pralines 😮💨 Sooo good! There is A LOT of stuff in there. I wasn’t expecting to see decent quality items that weren’t beaver branded. There was really a little bit of everything in there. The bathroom was really clean but it was also nice to be in a huge bathroom and yet not feel like I was sharing it with everyone else that was in there. The stalls have seat sanitizer and hand sanitizer in them. The doors are solid wood (no peek a boo cracks) you have a mirror sink and paper towel dispenser all to yourself. The gas pumps are a couple of rows deep and those rows wrap around the entire building. Each pump has enough room for a moving truck. In fact I saw 2 huge moving trucks and they just blended into the sea of cars, trucks, and rvs. I’ve never seen anything like it before but I’ll definitely be going back.
Bucees is awesome for so many reasons. Not just the food and the souvineers, but they also pay their employees EXTREMELY well for the jobs that they have available. They have a giant board detailing the starting pay for every job title, even manager positions.
The food isn't expensive unless you buy a lot of it. The expensive things tend to be the merch. They weren't kidding about the bathrooms at Buc-ee's. The bathrooms are massive and they have people who are dedicated to keeping the bathrooms clean and well stocked.
Living in Texas, I can confirm the food is genuinely good. The Buc-ee’s chopped beef sandwich is one of my favorite things to eat. I’ll just go there for lunch sometimes like it were any other restaurant. Sausage, jerky, pastries, warm nuts covered in cinnamon and sugar, and their own brand of tons of snacks and candies make them a unique and delicious place to go. There’s probably something for everyone there.
My last road trip cost me $200 at Buc-ee's and I had to use all my willpower not to open every package in the hotel room on the first night. Totally envious that we don't have one of these where I live.
Sorry about the chol. # i have some very thin family members with same issue ( some link fat with it) sometimes it runs in families. Do what you can but live life. ❤
I love the pure look of joy and wonderment in your face on every video! Americans get so much criticism around the world. We are definitely imperfect, but we are also a great nation full of diverse and amazing people. Thank you for your enthusiastic interest in our culture. ❤
I don't know why, unless it's passed down generations with cinnamon rolls, but yes, Americans are obsessed with cinnamon. Anything "pumpkin spice" is mostly "spiced" with cinnamon. We buy smelly things that make the house smell like cinnamon, especially in winter.
School busses are often used by the schools for short or medium range trips where hiring a coach service bus is not cost-effective. On band trips we took the yellow busses several hours one-way to perform in competitions. While we never had to stop at rest areas on those, I can see where it might be advantageous in circumstances. Also, local school bussing might have contracts to fuel up at a place like Buckey's, and a driver with an empty bus might stop to grab something to eat if it's on the way to the bus garage. It's really not all that uncommon to see yellow school busses parked in places.
Been several times going to the one between Dallas & Houston Texas & between Dallas & Denton Texas; fresh roasted nuts, fudge, banana pudding; brisket sandwiches & kolaches; plus the cleanest bathrooms anywhere(very important when you’re on the interstate & need to go); huge, shop is several hundred thousand square feet & you can buy just about anything; along whole front of the store are huge freezers containing bagged ice; love watching you enjoy the States. 🤗🤗🥰🥰❤️❤️☮️☮️
We went on a road trip Labor Day Weekend. Going home Labor Day, a Monday Holiday, we swung into a Buc-ee's in Kentucky. 200+ gas pumps, all FULL, people waiting in line almost a 1/4 mile. All the parking spaces around it were FULL with people like us looking for parking, about 15-20 minutes of waiting patiently. My son went inside to get us food. He came out about 15 minutes later with what he got. (The store in the video was only about 1/3 as busy. Rough "guestimate" $38k/hour gas, $93k/hour inside sales.) He described it as "A Walt Disney World of Convenience Stores." ... The XL brisket sandwiches he got us were $15 each, but worth every dime. Sauce was a bit sweet for me, but beef tasted great. In front of our parking spot they had a placard up with the Pay Rate and Excepted Hours of Work for EVERY job in the place. Interesting.
Southwest Arizona is gonna have a 75,000 square foot Buc-ees soon....cinnamon done right is delicious....I've never been there yet but my friends say it's that good....brisket pretty much trumps all other meat....America knows how to do turkey properly so its always juicy no matter what....there's LDL & HDL cholesterol & you actually need some in order to be healthy lol....there's a ridiculous amount of different kinds of meats that are made into jerky....Buc-ees is known for the cleanest gas station bathrooms
So I’ve been to bucees a few times, and I can tell you it doesnt matter what day or time of the week it is, that place is PACKED shoulder to shoulder. People LOVE Bucees. They do have great gas prices though. They actually got in trouble with my state for selling gas below cost which is illegal here.
Buccee's is down the street from my job. Yes, the food is delicious! However, you are looking to pay around $6.50-$9.00 USD each for these burittos and sandwiches. It's not a daily place to eat, but it's a wonderful option to have when I don't pack something for lunch. Also you may not realize, but the gas pumps go all the way down the building, then theres usually more punps on at least 1 of the shorter sides of the building.
The person behind the counter badly misled them in the first Buc-ee's jerky purchase. When he said cherry maple, those of us watching were yelling NO at the screen.
Bucees originated in Texas (where else? LOL), then spread as a chain to a few other states, mostly in the south. And yes, the brisket is great, and so is their fudge. Yes, they also have a fudge counter with all kinds. Its what is known as a "truck stop". A place along the highway that you stop for gas while on cross country trips. Most truck stops have food available so you can grab a meal or snacks on the go, but Bucees takes it to a whole different level. School bus =iconic..lol. Yes, our school kids DO ride places on the yellow buses. This could be a field trip to Bucees but more likely the kids are on a field trip to somewhere else, maybe a football game (the teams do travel to other schools for games at times) and this was a gas, food and bathroom stop along the way.
I would LOVE to have a Buc-ee's in California. Our gas stations suck for the most part, which is weird because we're such a populated, car-centric state. As soon as you go across the border to Nevada and Arizona, the gas stations get SO much better. More food options, cleaner bathrooms, open at better hours, often more pumps and they actually have the window washer squeegees. My bucket list is to one day go to a Buc-ees though, it looks bigger even than the Terrible's/giant Chevron near the NV/CA border!
I had to laugh when you saw the yellow school bus. It's just there to get gas! You'll see tour buses as well. I've went to this buccees about 2 months ago while I was at Dollywood. It's not far from the theme park. It's a very interesting place, that entire area. And cinnamon is very popular in sweets in the US South
This is making me hungry. I live 13 miles from Buc-ees and now, I have to get dressed. Everything’s good. I was surprised how awesome they make a veggie burrito.
I really enjoy watching your reaction videos and I'm glad to hear you're considering a trip to the US in the near future. I'm sorry to hear about your high blood pressure and I wanted to offer a suggestion. I didn't know how common it is in your country, but you may want to consider becoming a blood donor. I am by no means a doctor, but there are a ton of health benefits from being a recurring blood donor, including lowering cholesterol. Check with a doctor first to make sure you're fit to donate.
You know when you plan your trip to the US you should consider TN. It has the hype of Nashville, music city, the beauty and tourist destination of the Smokies with Dollywood, and a million other things to do, and as you can see, a Bucees. And it's all wrapped up within a 250-mile radius. Not to mention, the people of East Tennessee, as you would put it, are amazing. You could even skip Nashville and not really miss a thing. Come in the spring or fall, the Smokies really shine then.
Cinnamon scent and flavor is very VERY popular here in the States especially during Autumn/Fall and winter... along with the "apple" scent and flavor. Unfortunately, we have no Buc'ees where I live here in the Midwest. 😭
Yes, Bucee's is that good, love the BBQ chopped brisket sandwich. Cleanest bathrooms. And by my sisters in New Braunfels, Texas, they have so much orignal paintings hanging up from local artists. The trip down the hallway to bathroom is like walking through an art gallery. So much to see, big cheap soda drinks. It is worth the trip to a Bucees!
I worked in the deli at Buc-ee’s for two years. I was the baker and made all the items in the bakery case - kolaches, cinnamon rolls, banana bread, jalapeño bread, muffins, cookies, etc. I made banana bread batter 20 liters at a time and once made 70 dozen fruit kolaches in one shift. It’s one of the few kitchens I’ve worked in that I will still willingly eat at…. the food is very good, but it’s NOT cheap!
My son and drove from Florida coast to San Diego California (base transfer) and we stopped at one. It's insanely huge for most of the US and yes the food was that good. My son said it was some of the best brisket he ever had. We had to stop at another the next day for breakfast.
Andre, for the record, Sevierville = suh-VEER-vul, (TN). Yessiree, we love cinnamon over here. But, that's okay, since Mexico likes peppers, and Hungary likes paprika. During the burrito tasting section, I misread your expression as, "That looks awful!" As an American, I have to admit that it's really fun to watch these guys constantly swoon over the tastes of our food here.😀 Way too many of us are as ignorant as a box of rocks, but at least we have good food.
You have to remember. A lot of jerky has medium to heavy spice in it. So with the Brits thinking that a bell pepper adds too much spice to a dish you can understand why they don't like a lot of the food in the US.
I’ve been to Buc’ees. It is absolutely amazing. They’re not even showing you all of what you can buy in there. It’s anything you can think of for travel, and even after you reach your destination, i.e. camping and out door supplies. There’s even a gift section for you or a souvenir for a friend. I could’ve stayed inside for 3 hours just LOOKING at stuff. I haven’t even mentioned the food. There’s not much to be disappointed about. Everything is good. Even their own brand of snacks. It’s a definite destination for a tourist….and locals too!😉
We now have a Bucees in Colorado. Went there in June and had the brisket sandwich. It is amazing! Also had a bean & beef burrito. It was ok. Bought some of their fudge. It was really good. The place is huge but is well run and the people flow through with no major problems considering the massive crowd. The restrooms were massive with nice handicap access. We didn’t get any gas since we were only going 150 miles to Wyoming and filled up before we left home.
Me watching this in Tennessee while wearing my Buc-ee’s hoodie and drinking out of my buc-ee’s cup 😆🦫 and yes the brisket sandwich is really that good! 🤤
A lot of gas stations also make different kinds of food here in Tennessee. One of them near me is called Git n Go. They make great burgers and fried mushrooms. the milkshakes are terrific and lots of different ice creams to pick from. Lots more food to pick from and it is all good
Hello new friends, Pastor Fred here in Rockwood TN. This Bucees is in Seveirville TN, a little over an hour east of me. Stopped there last night for coffee. There is one an hour west of me in Crossville TN that we stop at every Tuesday night for coffee. Yes, they are that big, yes, they have that much stuff, and YES it is that good!!! There are 120 fuel pumps at the Crossville store. Think there may be more at Seveirville. Worth the stop!
I've been to that Buc-ees. The food was very good. I didn't try more than a brisket sandwich, though. I wish they had a seating area so you can eat there.
Buc-ees has great food. The cinnamon rolls are so good, especially if they are hot. If you like jerky, tons to choose from. The fudge is delicious. The BBQ so good, brisket, chicken, beef, pork and turkey!! So many pastries too!! YUMMY!!! This is a gift shop, grocery store, restaurant that happens to sell gas. You had me laughing when said you have cholesterol. Every human on earth has cholesterol. Its just a matter of if its high, aka hypercholesterol. Diet and exercise are your best friends to control it.
As a texan i can indeed say bucees has some of the best food you will find ever. I've gone to bbq restaurants that fail face of bucees. Not only that they have a huge selection of fresh made in store fudges and amazing fresh made beef jerky with about a dozen variations. And the rest of the store is basically a mini mall with a massive restroom that is always clean and welcoming during a long8 - 12 hour in state drive.
I buy Korean BBQ Pork Jerky from Amazon in the U.S. all the time. There is a brand called Krave that make a Black Cherry BBQ pork jerky which is really good.
Watching from Atlanta Georgia, my hometown is in southern Georgia and every time I head home to visit friends and family I always get requests for the BBQ and treats from Bucces. It is definitely an experience that you should absolutely try on your trip to America.
In the USA a cheese steak sandwich can come in many forms. The Philly is probably the most recognized, but no one has ever turned down a steak burrito. Now I'm hungry.
I was visiting Texas two years ago and my brother decided to stop off at a Buc-ees for petro and food, and we got some barbecue sandwiches to eat on the road. Good thing my brother was driving or I would’ve driven back to get some more food.
Went to bucees multiple times when it was on my work route. Omg. The smell when you walk in. Amazing. The food was delicious. So many mindbogling choices. The store part was good as well. Visiting a Bucees( a gas station) is an experience in of itself.
The beginning of their video is similar to how I felt in this particular Bucees, it was very overwhelming. The other Bucees I've been too were just as amazing without the overwhelming atmosphere.
The deal is if you have one on the way to somewhere, it's awesome. If you have one close, it's often not worth the effort and just go to your local gas station, usually you can get at least breakfast tacos, if not hot food all day.
Hi Andre, its Alan from Maine! I work in the hospital as a Respiratory Therapist for years now. We all have Cholesterol, good/bad types, but I have a big hint! If you want to reduce it, I will tell you a secret! But will have to come to Portugal if you tell anyone, and slash your tires, lol! BEETS! Beets will reduce your Cholesterol in just a few months!! Must say, I am not a doctor, so this is not a prescription, but a friend to friend info! Louve you guy!
Cholesterol is a mixed bag... HDL is a good thing. You have to have it to make new cells. Don't obsess about the number because it's worse for you to take statin drugs than it is to have higher numbers. When you're here in The States, the trick is to eat proteins and fats with vegetables, not carbs. So have a steak... with a salad, not a potato. If you have a potato, skip the protein.
Bro you are funny AF with the school bus reaction. Lol I would have the same fascination with "lorries" with 2 steer axles that yall have in Europe. We have some in the states and a few in Canada but ive never seen them.
Yesss Bucees is something else, huge!, went to the one in St Augustine Florida when on vacation a couple of years ago it just opened the local TV stations really hypedit up! sooo many people the boyfriend wouldnt go until the next day! It is really a experience!!
Bucee's is a great place to stop! The hot food and the bagged snacks are delicious! I usually stop at the one in Temple, Texas when we road trip to San Antonio. We have one closer in Fort Worth, but more fun on a trip.
I live in TN and yes its that Big! Every time I stop there its atleast an hour. In between walking my Shih Tzu around their large grounds and going in and enjoying the CLEAN facilities for myself.. and if I have I have a copilot to watch my Shih Tzu Gucci, then it can be hours. Me browsing and picking some treats and looking at other stuff, then my copilot getting their turn to go inside. Then ofcourse Gucci gets some water and fed as well. Everyone loves Buccees!
Just last week, we stopped at Buc-ees on my way to the airport. I bought a bbq beef brisket sandwich, it was very good. The fudge is great - a couple dozen varieties. And a couple dozen types of jerky too. And they're open 24/7. I love Buc-ees. . . . I wish they'd open one near my daughter, instead of a good 45 minutes away.
Yes, that was a yellow school bus you saw. Rode on one to and from school for 13 years, K-12, and on field trips, too. We don't have Buc-ee's in Michigan, but we're more of a destination state being mostly surrounded by the Great Lakes, so I'm not sure there's enough random traffic to support such a large truck stop here. Part of I-94 runs through Michigan, and is the main route between Detroit and Chicago, but unless someone is headed to Michigan, or possibly to Toronto or Niagara Falls from somewhere Southwest of Michigan, they probably won't just end up here, whereas a lot of people could easily end up in states in the middle of the country whether it's their destination or they're just passing through.
That is an awesome Buc-ee’s is great and that Buc-ee’s in TN is great. The bathrooms alone are an experience. I’m from Texas. We are proud of Buc-ee’s! Yes, the food is sooooooo awesome!
I live outside Houston and visit Bucees about once every week or two - it IS that awesome. the bbq and jerky is a must every time you stop! also ensure you have time to spend, you will be in there for a while! Come visit Texas, we'll show you a great time!!
I went to one in Alabama on my way to Florida. It was a Saturday afternoon and I got my picture made with Buc-ee himself. This chain is really growing. There are two now in my home state of Kentucky, the latest on the way in between Louisville and Nashville. They just announced plans for a third. It really is that freaking big and they really do have all kinds of crazy fun stuff to eat (and wear).
Buc-ee's is seriously amazing. Best brisket sandwich I have ever had and their fudge is really good and all the Buc-ee's nuggets are great. Jolly has a different Buc-ee's video for when they first went there, you should watch that.
Yes, Bucees is delicious. Sooo much food (and I got a “country roads” sign for my house )😂
Bucees is amazing! It’s not just a gas station it’s a destination.
yep. One night with a screaming baby we drove to Buc-cees. .. at 4am. They were open .
Must be like that Wall Drug in South Dakota.
Bucee's is basically gas station Disneyland with reasonable prices tbh
I don’t really like barbecue that much, but even I thought Bucee’s was good. The bathrooms are huge too, so there are no lines there-like 45 stalls and 10 sinks. Bucee’s is like the Disney World of gas stations/pit stops.
I stopped at one recently and there was a line of about 100 women outside the women's bathroom. My wife finally decided she could just hold it until the next stop.
I literally just had my first buckees experience today. The videos don’t do it justice. There is a need for smell o vision. The place smells so very good.

Bucees is awesome for so many reasons. Not just the food and the souvineers, but they also pay their employees EXTREMELY well for the jobs that they have available. They have a giant board detailing the starting pay for every job title, even manager positions.
The food isn't expensive unless you buy a lot of it. The expensive things tend to be the merch. They weren't kidding about the bathrooms at Buc-ee's. The bathrooms are massive and they have people who are dedicated to keeping the bathrooms clean and well stocked.
Every stall gets cleaned after each use. They have staff whose whole job is to clean every stall every time it is used.
Not just clean, they are immaculate!! Those were the ONLY public toilet I ever actually sat down on.
They are the best road trip bathrooms, especially if you have young kids with you.
Living in Texas, I can confirm the food is genuinely good. The Buc-ee’s chopped beef sandwich is one of my favorite things to eat. I’ll just go there for lunch sometimes like it were any other restaurant.

IT'S THE PULLED PORK WRAP FOR ME I LIVE IN NEW YORK AND WISH THEY WERE HERE BUT WE HAVE TO GET A WAFFLE HOUSE FIRST
My last road trip cost me $200 at Buc-ee's and I had to use all my willpower not to open every package in the hotel room on the first night. Totally envious that we don't have one of these where I live.
They didn't spend $319 on just food. In the promotional portion of their video they have a lot of Bucees stuff like a large inflatable Bucee Beaver.
When I heard their total, I was like, where are they, Target?!? Target will get you like that, but I saw the inflatable and it made way more sense.
Glad you pointed this out! I was about to ask Andre if gas station food is cheaper than grocery store food in Portugal…
Sorry about the chol. # i have some very thin family members with same issue ( some link fat with it) sometimes it runs in families. Do what you can but live life. ❤
You can say, they fueled up.
I love the pure look of joy and wonderment in your face on every video! Americans get so much criticism around the world. We are definitely imperfect, but we are also a great nation full of diverse and amazing people. Thank you for your enthusiastic interest in our culture. ❤
I don't know why, unless it's passed down generations with cinnamon rolls, but yes, Americans are obsessed with cinnamon. Anything "pumpkin spice" is mostly "spiced" with cinnamon. We buy smelly things that make the house smell like cinnamon, especially in winter.
Cinnamon and ranch dressing!

They’re building a Bucees near Ocala FL on I-75. Will be the record for most gas pumps.

Buccee's brisket is better than most U.S. BBQ restaurants.
I’ve been to Buc-ees in Tennessee and in Ohio. It’s truly an experience! You MUST do it!!!!
Ty 🙏
I wish we could get one in my area of Indiana. I have wanted to try the food there for a long time.
We went on a road trip Labor Day Weekend. Going home Labor Day, a Monday Holiday, we swung into a Buc-ee's in Kentucky.
200+ gas pumps, all FULL, people waiting in line almost a 1/4 mile. All the parking spaces around it were FULL with people like us looking for parking, about 15-20 minutes of waiting patiently.

I’ve been to this exact Bucees. It’s flipping awesome!
Looks like 🙏
Southwest Arizona is gonna have a 75,000 square foot Buc-ees soon....cinnamon done right is delicious....I've never been there yet but my friends say it's that good....brisket pretty much trumps all other meat....America knows how to do turkey properly so its always juicy no matter what....there's LDL & HDL cholesterol & you actually need some in order to be healthy lol....there's a ridiculous amount of different kinds of meats that are made into jerky....Buc-ees is known for the cleanest gas station bathrooms
As a Texan, ill die for the Holy Beaver. If America ever collapses, the Buccees Caliphate will reign over the south.
So I’ve been to bucees a few times, and I can tell you it doesnt matter what day or time of the week it is, that place is PACKED shoulder to shoulder. People LOVE Bucees. They do have great gas prices though. They actually got in trouble with my state for selling gas below cost which is illegal here.
Yes!!!! Bucees is a MUST SEE!!! I’ve been waiting to see this covered!!! Yay!!
It’s everything and MORE!!!!
Buccee's is down the street from my job. Yes, the food is delicious! However, you are looking to pay around $6.50-$9.00 USD each for these burittos and sandwiches. It's not a daily place to eat, but it's a wonderful option to have when I don't pack something for lunch.

The person behind the counter badly misled them in the first Buc-ee's jerky purchase. When he said cherry maple, those of us watching were yelling NO at the screen.
It wasn't misleading. It was a personal preference.
I was screaming "NOOOOO" when I first saw that video
Bucees originated in Texas (where else? LOL), then spread as a chain to a few other states, mostly in the south. And yes, the brisket is great, and so is their fudge.

Buc-ee's is not a truck stop! They do not allow trucks on the property.
We have them in Ohio now
I would LOVE to have a Buc-ee's in California. Our gas stations suck for the most part, which is weird because we're such a populated, car-centric state. As soon as you go across the border to Nevada and Arizona, the gas stations get SO much better. More food options, cleaner bathrooms, open at better hours, often more pumps and they actually have the window washer squeegees.
My bucket list is to one day go to a Buc-ees though, it looks bigger even than the Terrible's/giant Chevron near the NV/CA border!
It cracked me up when you noticed the school bus!
I've never been to Bucee's but many gas stations that are right off the freeways are enormous! Often with restaurants attached.
I live in East Tennessee and Dollywood and Buccee’s are amazing!!!
We’ve got 3 Buc ee’s in Tennessee with a 4th opening soon in Murfreesboro, just outside of Nashville.
Interesting to note that both Andre, and Lewis (L3WG), have both posted reactions to the same video within an hour of each other.
They do it all the time. Neither are very original
What really fun is watching you guys enjoying America for the first time ! It's hard to believe, but fun!
I've been to Buccee's once. It was awesome. The food was great.
I had to laugh when you saw the yellow school bus. It's just there to get gas! You'll see tour buses as well. I've went to this buccees about 2 months ago while I was at Dollywood.

You know when you plan your trip to the US you should consider TN.

Come in the spring or fall, the Smokies really shine then.
Another thing about BucEe's is the huge and clean bathrooms. Travelers really appreciate a clean bathroom and no waiting.
Cinnamon scent and flavor is very VERY popular here in the States especially during Autumn/Fall and winter... along with the "apple" scent and flavor. Unfortunately, we have no Buc'ees where I live here in the Midwest. 😭
You'll get one before any of us in the PNW. We're likely on the never list. 🙁
"What the hell is this small car doing there?" As a F-250 driver, I lol'ed.
He does have a point! It's like someone put a toy car in an aisle of electric kid cars!
😂 As a driver of a Chevy Spark, I can tell you, I disappear in a parking lot!
@@Llabrickitw Hey, it means you can get into parking spaces others can't!
It's a free country. People can drive small cars if they want to.
Because this is a smart driver. 😅😂
We have a Buc-ees here in the Macon-Warner Robins, Georgia area. Amazing and a must-see for travelers.
Yes, Bucee's is that good, love the BBQ chopped brisket sandwich. Cleanest bathrooms. And by my sisters in New Braunfels, Texas, they have so much orignal paintings hanging up from local artists. The trip down the hallway to bathroom is like walking through an art gallery. So much to see, big cheap soda drinks. It is worth the trip to a Bucees!
Hey Andre , love your channel , speaking to you from Kentucky , one state up from Tennessee , we have bucees in our area too
Bucees is so much more than a gas station.❤😍🥰
I will never move where there’s not a Bucees and an H-E-B market.
Ive been to that same location a few times now and the place is great. Love hearing the guys hollering about fresh hot brisket.
It's just that good Andre....Bucee's is INCREDIBLE
I worked in the deli at Buc-ee’s for two years. I was the baker and made all the items in the bakery case - kolaches, cinnamon rolls, banana bread, jalapeño bread, muffins, cookies, etc. I made banana bread batter 20 liters at a time and once made 70 dozen fruit kolaches in one shift. It’s one of the few kitchens I’ve worked in that I will still willingly eat at…. the food is very good, but it’s NOT cheap!
OMG! YES!!!! Their brisket is amazing, and so much food! I miss Buc'cees!
My son and drove from Florida coast to San Diego California (base transfer) and we stopped at one. It's insanely huge for most of the US and yes the food was that good. My son said it was some of the best brisket he ever had. We had to stop at another the next day for breakfast.
Andre, for the record, Sevierville = suh-VEER-vul, (TN).
Yessiree, we love cinnamon over here. But, that's okay, since Mexico likes peppers, and Hungary likes paprika.
During the burrito tasting section, I misread your expression as, "That looks awful!"
As an American, I have to admit that it's really fun to watch these guys constantly swoon over the tastes of our food here.😀 Way too many of us are as ignorant as a box of rocks, but at least we have good food.
Big bucking sandwich their tacos and the salt and caramel beaver nuggets are amazing
You have to remember. A lot of jerky has medium to heavy spice in it. So with the Brits thinking that a bell pepper adds too much spice to a dish you can understand why they don't like a lot of the food in the US.
Love Buckees!!!! Ours is 30 min away, & we kinda speed on the backroads to get there!
I’ve been to Buc’ees. It is absolutely amazing. They’re not even showing you all of what you can buy in there. It’s anything you can think of for travel, and even after you reach your destination, i.e. camping and out door supplies. There’s even a gift section for you or a souvenir for a friend. I could’ve stayed inside for 3 hours just LOOKING at stuff. I haven’t even mentioned the food. There’s not much to be disappointed about. Everything is good. Even their own brand of snacks. It’s a definite destination for a tourist….and locals too!😉
We now have a Bucees in Colorado. Went there in June and had the brisket sandwich. It is amazing! Also had a bean & beef burrito. It was ok. Bought some of their fudge. It was really good. The place is huge but is well run and the people flow through with no major problems considering the massive crowd. The restrooms were massive with nice handicap access. We didn’t get any gas since we were only going 150 miles to Wyoming and filled up before we left home.
Yes!! Bucee’s has wonderful food 😅
Bucees has a meat counter full of every imaginable variety of jerky and dried sausage you can imagine. It‘s like a zoo of trail meat.
Me watching this in Tennessee while wearing my Buc-ee’s hoodie and drinking out of my buc-ee’s cup 😆🦫 and yes the brisket sandwich is really that good! 🤤
A lot of gas stations also make different kinds of food here in Tennessee. One of them near me is called Git n Go. They make great burgers and fried mushrooms. the milkshakes are terrific and lots of different ice creams to pick from. Lots more food to pick from and it is all good
Hello new friends, Pastor Fred here in Rockwood TN. This Bucees is in Seveirville TN, a little over an hour east of me. Stopped there last night for coffee. There is one an hour west of me in Crossville TN that we stop at every Tuesday night for coffee. Yes, they are that big, yes, they have that much stuff, and YES it is that good!!! There are 120 fuel pumps at the Crossville store. Think there may be more at Seveirville. Worth the stop!
I've been to that Buc-ees. The food was very good. I didn't try more than a brisket sandwich, though. I wish they had a seating area so you can eat there.
The food from Buc-ees is AMAZING!
Buc-ees has great food. The cinnamon rolls are so good, especially if they are hot. If you like jerky, tons to choose from. The fudge is delicious. The BBQ so good, brisket, chicken, beef, pork and turkey!! So many pastries too!! YUMMY!!! This is a gift shop, grocery store, restaurant that happens to sell gas.
You had me laughing when said you have cholesterol. Every human on earth has cholesterol. Its just a matter of if its high, aka hypercholesterol. Diet and exercise are your best friends to control it.
As a texan i can indeed say bucees has some of the best food you will find ever. I've gone to bbq restaurants that fail face of bucees. Not only that they have a huge selection of fresh made in store fudges and amazing fresh made beef jerky with about a dozen variations. And the rest of the store is basically a mini mall with a massive restroom that is always clean and welcoming during a long8 - 12 hour in state drive.
Bucee's is just something else. It's a 1 stop shop for everything and anything just about.
Buccees is pretty cool :) they are strikingly fast as well for being so busy
I buy Korean BBQ Pork Jerky from Amazon in the U.S. all the time. There is a brand called Krave that make a Black Cherry BBQ pork jerky which is really good.
you should react to rap or rock music not just country! us americans love our rap and rock
Watching from Atlanta Georgia, my hometown is in southern Georgia and every time I head home to visit friends and family I always get requests for the BBQ and treats from Bucces. It is definitely an experience that you should absolutely try on your trip to America.
In the USA a cheese steak sandwich can come in many forms. The Philly is probably the most recognized, but no one has ever turned down a steak burrito. Now I'm hungry.
I was visiting Texas two years ago and my brother decided to stop off at a Buc-ees for petro and food, and we got some barbecue sandwiches to eat on the road. Good thing my brother was driving or I would’ve driven back to get some more food.
Went to bucees multiple times when it was on my work route. Omg. The smell when you walk in. Amazing. The food was delicious. So many mindbogling choices. The store part was good as well. Visiting a Bucees( a gas station) is an experience in of itself.
The beginning of their video is similar to how I felt in this particular Bucees, it was very overwhelming. The other Bucees I've been too were just as amazing without the overwhelming atmosphere.
The deal is if you have one on the way to somewhere, it's awesome. If you have one close, it's often not worth the effort and just go to your local gas station, usually you can get at least breakfast tacos, if not hot food all day.
They spent that money for everyone in their crew. It wasn't just their food.
It’s really that good!
Hi Andre, its Alan from Maine! I work in the hospital as a Respiratory Therapist for years now. We all have Cholesterol, good/bad types, but I have a big hint! If you want to reduce it, I will tell
you a secret! But will have to come to Portugal if you tell anyone, and slash your tires, lol! BEETS! Beets will reduce your Cholesterol in just a few months!! Must say, I am not a doctor, so this is not a prescription, but a friend to friend info! Louve you guy!
Beets are supposed to help lower blood pressure too.
@@evatripp7788 i like beets but many don't unfortunately.
I stopped at a BUC-EEs just outside of Dallas Texas. It is an amazing place.
Cholesterol is a mixed bag... HDL is a good thing. You have to have it to make new cells. Don't obsess about the number because it's worse for you to take statin drugs than it is to have higher numbers.
When you're here in The States, the trick is to eat proteins and fats with vegetables, not carbs. So have a steak... with a salad, not a potato. If you have a potato, skip the protein.
Bro you are funny AF with the school bus reaction. Lol
I would have the same fascination with "lorries" with 2 steer axles that yall have in Europe. We have some in the states and a few in Canada but ive never seen them.
This is 25 miles from my house. Only been once and had thr brisket, very good. Love the cinnamon Bun, can't be too sweet for me.
Yesss Bucees is something else, huge!, went to the one in St Augustine Florida when on vacation a couple of years ago it just opened the local TV stations really hypedit up! sooo many people the boyfriend wouldnt go until the next day! It is really a experience!!
Been to Buc-ees in Texas years ago. It's huge, a shopping experience.
Yes it's amazing food everything is amazing
I’ve been to a Bucees once before. I can honestly say their food is really good.
bucees is awesome. it's an experience you need to try at least once.
Bucee's is a great place to stop! The hot food and the bagged snacks are delicious! I usually stop at the one in Temple, Texas when we road trip to San Antonio. We have one closer in Fort Worth, but more fun on a trip.
BUCCEES!!! The absolute best gas station!!! So many options for food, Buccees merch, lots & lots of giftable items as well! Truly incredible place!
I live in TN and yes its that Big! Every time I stop there its atleast an hour. In between walking my Shih Tzu around their large grounds and going in and enjoying the CLEAN facilities for myself.. and if I have I have a copilot to watch my Shih Tzu Gucci, then it can be hours. Me browsing and picking some treats and looking at other stuff, then my copilot getting their turn to go inside. Then ofcourse Gucci gets some water and fed as well. Everyone loves Buccees!
Bucce’s is like if a Walmart and a Bass Pro made love and had a baby. I love them
Just last week, we stopped at Buc-ees on my way to the airport. I bought a bbq beef brisket sandwich, it was very good.
The fudge is great - a couple dozen varieties. And a couple dozen types of jerky too.
And they're open 24/7.
I love Buc-ees. . . . I wish they'd open one near my daughter, instead of a good 45 minutes away.
Yes, that was a yellow school bus you saw. Rode on one to and from school for 13 years, K-12, and on field trips, too.
We don't have Buc-ee's in Michigan, but we're more of a destination state being mostly surrounded by the Great Lakes, so I'm not sure there's enough random traffic to support such a large truck stop here. Part of I-94 runs through Michigan, and is the main route between Detroit and Chicago, but unless someone is headed to Michigan, or possibly to Toronto or Niagara Falls from somewhere Southwest of Michigan, they probably won't just end up here, whereas a lot of people could easily end up in states in the middle of the country whether it's their destination or they're just passing through.
Everything is bigger and bettr from Texas ... we let Tennessee have some too ;-)
That is an awesome Buc-ee’s is great and that Buc-ee’s in TN is great. The bathrooms alone are an experience.
I’m from Texas. We are proud of Buc-ee’s! Yes, the food is sooooooo awesome!
That sandwich is the best thing I’ve ever had in my entire life
This is one of the things I wish we had in the Northeast US!❤😂 I love your accent and your videos❤
I live outside Houston and visit Bucees about once every week or two - it IS that awesome. the bbq and jerky is a must every time you stop! also ensure you have time to spend, you will be in there for a while! Come visit Texas, we'll show you a great time!!
I went to one in Alabama on my way to Florida. It was a Saturday afternoon and I got my picture made with Buc-ee himself. This chain is really growing. There are two now in my home state of Kentucky, the latest on the way in between Louisville and Nashville. They just announced plans for a third. It really is that freaking big and they really do have all kinds of crazy fun stuff to eat (and wear).
BUC-EES is awesome. The jerky selection alone is worth going for.
Buc-ee's is seriously amazing. Best brisket sandwich I have ever had and their fudge is really good and all the Buc-ee's nuggets are great. Jolly has a different Buc-ee's video for when they first went there, you should watch that.
I’ve been to one in Florida and Kentucky. I live in Pennsylvania and drove to both of them. My favorite was the club melt.
