Everything is bigger in Texas, from the state itself to people’s strong Lone Star pride. This state has made a name for itself due to its abundance, country roots, cowboy culture, and unbeatable Texas-style barbecue.
In addition to its already beloved traditions, it’s also home to one of the most epic convenience-store and gas-station chains in the U.S. Its presence is just as big and over-the-top as Texas, boasting an incredibly loyal cult following.

A popular Texas convenience store chain expands into new territories
Although Buc-ee’s only has 51 locations in nine states, with the majority in Texas, it has become an unmissable pit-stop for road-tripping families, truckers on work trips, and commuters on the go since the opening of its first location in the small town of Clute, Texas, in 1982.
Buc-ee’s couldn’t stay a Texas secret any longer, and in 2019, it expanded outside its home state, opening the first location in Baldwin County, Alabama.
