I think you could get a job being the voice of Buc-ee.
I think so too! 😃
Thanks to Australia from Florida! Brothers in arms, a great country full of good, friendly people!
That's cool that you posted a bit of American history about the "Join or Die" flag. It is often misunderstood.
I’m always curious about history and learning about things I don’t know. Thank you for watching.
Join or die is one of the oldest political cartoon prints in American history. Back then you had to carve out the image you wanted and then print it. Newspapers and political tracks or “early posters” of the period.
@@timothywalker4563 Isn't it interesting that this saying has come full circle, given the political instability infecting our country.
Buc'ees has the best bathrooms; and is a tourist attraction and anybody from out of town; I always take them; so they can say "Hey; everything really is bigger in Texas."
Not just Conchas but BIMBO Conchas.. that's a mouthful..
British Texans... love that.. we Texans seem to share a kindred spirit with many Australians !!
(Adult Onesy)”I’d look
Ridiculous in this”…
That’s the point!!😂😂
I’ll be returning to get one!
@@madskelli
I think anyone would look cool in those 😎😂
As a Texan I can assure you there ain't nothin' like your first trip to hitting one of these for the first time.
Buc-ee’s is a Texas institution!! Fascinating to see how it has spread to other states.
As a Californian, I've never been to Buc-ee's and am in awe at the size of this store and the options.
You definitely gotta go!
It's pretty expensive.
That place is crazy, I live in Silicon Valley (grew up here) and have never been to the south....I think that place is easily the biggest convenience store in the world! 😲
To be absolutely honest, that x-large is NOT the largest soft drink container I've see by a long sight. There are containers so large you could use them to put out a house fire.
They started as a family store in coastal Texas near Houston. They have stayed privately owned as they have massively expanded over the last 30 years. They pay their employees well and give good benefits. They are very well placed to do well out of the electric car revolution… takes a while to refuel one of those! They will need upgraded electrical connections and places for people to sit and eat though. Start planning for that now, Buccees!
Buc-ee's is wild. Honestly wish they were the standard for US truck stops. They're are ridiculous. It's an odd experience the first time you walk into one. When I was traveling for work consistently, used to always try to time my trips so I could grab their fresh breakfast and their fresh BBQ later in the day for lunch.
With the peppers it is hot going in but it’s hotter coming out.
Good to hear they have potty supplies!
I just stumbled apon your channel.i love watching stuff like this.keep up with your amazing content
Thank you so much! And thanks for watching!
You’re turning into an American! You called it a Line instead of a Queue! 😅😊❤️
I blend a little sometimes. 😁
I didnt realize they sold bimbo stuff. Their factory is on my former in-laws old property in Zanesville Ohio. Bimbo also makes all the buns for wendys and arbys.
@@americansmark cool! Thanks for sharing this!
If traveling, do not hesitate at stopping at a Buc-ee's. I think they have someone assigned to cleaning the restrooms. They are always clean.
G'day Mad Skelli, just thought you'd like to know that University of Texas researchers have recently named a prehistoric beaver 'Anchitheriomys bucceei.
Omg! That’s so cool! Thanks for telling me. 😃
Pee cans are for truckers, Pah cans are for eating…
How about pecahns?
@@patrickbodine1300 nope, in Texas it starts with the paw or pah…
We absolutely loved our visit to the Worlds Largest Servo which is a Buc-ee's in New Braunfels, Texas. (video on our channel) Did you guys visit anymore Buc-ee's after your first one?
I have visited one in Alabama and Royse City Texas. I’ll plan on seeing more again in the future!
I'm from New Braunfels. Glad you enjoyed your visit and hope you come back. New Braunfels is an amazing place with many attractions (Gruen Hall, Schlitterbahn, Guadalupe River, Comal River, etc...) Be safe.
I love their chopped brisket sandwich it’s the best brisket I ever had. Now it’s a mission in my life to visit every Buc-ee’s that there is.
Same here!
I'd never heard of Buc-ees until we found you and this video -
If you ever go to the USA especially Texas you must go to Buc-ee’s!!!!
@@madskelli Now noted on the 'bucket list' ! Must see 😄
Great well presented video 👍 You deserve more subscribers Skelli
Thank you for watching!
The join or die snake is a political cartoon created by Benjamin Franklin to advocate fore the individual colonies to act in a more unified way in their approach to dealing with Great Britain. So the join is a more unified group of colonies. This would ultimately progress through the Articles of Confederation, and eventually, in order to create a Federal Government to assume the liability of all of the states individual debts (mostly to France) incurred during the War for Independence., the Constitution was adopted and the United States of America was finally formed in 1789.
I would spend all day in there, go home be sick and do it again the next day lol.
Same!!!
Glad you enjoyed yourself. Have fun and be safe.
While it is nice Buc-ees is rapidly expanding, there does just seem something a bit wrong about being in one and not being in Texas.
I can say I have been to ones in Texas and one in Alabama.
Got a fresh one in S. Mississippi.
Lovely video. You made me smile. Hope you enjoyed your visit to the States.
Thank you so much! It was amazing!
@@madskelli We love our Australian brothers and sisters! Visit us anytime! 👍🏻
You blend in well in Texas, with that American flag gear. lol!
As a Texan may I say, your welcome lol jk
Glad you love it
Priceless reaction so says Austin TX!!!!!!😎🍸
Wow! And I thought Target was big in Australia!
Oh the stores here in the US are amazing!!!!!
The Chicken Cordon bleu sausage is really good .It is in the fridge to the left of the jerky.
A+ video!
Awesome tour!
Biscuits (& gravy), cornbread, key lime pie... not great for my health, but I bloody miss the US like crazy sometimes.
Not good for my health either. ❤️
Always eat these things in moderation! I miss the US too!
That is one pleasant host.
0:33 kills me every time 😆
Ok. I’m from Texas. And pecan is pronounced Puh-con. Not Pee-can, which is a can you use when you’re trying to be discreet and you aren’t near a restroom and you really have to pee. Buc-ee’s is awesome. You should come to Texas. 🤠👍🇨🇱
Oh I’ve been to Texas! I LOVE Texas!!!!
I’ll be visiting again in April for the bborr.com
lol I know a bunch of people that agree with you, I have never been but want to go, I'm in Canada so I need to go there when I'm in south eastern US
Definitely go! You’ll have a great time. I’m obsessed with Bucees now!
WOW ! That place looks huge mate, i would so love to try some American jerky, was it good and tasty.
👍🤠
Oh the jerky was amazing!!!!! You can buy from Bucee’s on their Amazon store.
Actually Buc-ees does not have an online presence. Yes third party sellers post their merchandise but Buc-ees does not.
@@cynthiakennemore6941 I must have misunderstood. I was told that they had an Amazon store you could buy from.
Now I’m hungry and going to Buc-ees
Yes!!!
Lol I used to live right next to this very Buc-ees you visited!!
But honestly didn't go very often because it's always so f*cking PACKED!!!
Very interesting seeing what is in USA stores compared to Australia 👍
Sun Drop on tap?! Shut the front door!
Hello! proud Texan here
if you are still in Texas by September i highly recommend going to the state fair
it's tons of fun
We’ll be back in the US in October. We’ll try to make the State Fair some year!
A concha over here means sea shells.
Buc-ees is awesome. They lure you there with the cheap fuel to get you inside. That's where they get you. You can spend a fortune in there if you're not careful.
No lies detected!
I always knew that there was a Bucc-ee's in Florida, but I thought I would have to drive to the Panhandle to get there. Glad to know there is one in Daytona because it is a little closer to my home.
Currently there's one in Daytona, and one in the St Augustine area and a third is slated to be built in Ocala
Yep, read about the one coming to Ocala (born and raised, but don’t live there anymore)
I know the exact location they are building and it is perfect. Nothing off that exit so Buc’s will have NO competition.
They already have 2 on I-95 to catch the northeast traffic. This one will be on I-75 to catch the Midwest traffic.
This will be a great employment opportunity for locals in that area.
The hot peppers are not just hot going in 👍
the stuff of nightmares, get out while you can!
🤣🤣🤣
I love Buc-ee’s!!! I just visited six of them on my recent trip! 🦫🥤
My best friend has to move to Florida for work, and that Buc-ee's is his halfway
home point from work. He said, he buys 1 new thing to eat each night for dinner,
and still hasn't had the same thing twice, in a year, and a half.
I was surprised you weren't mugged by a gaggle of old Florida women,
for your American flag hat. lol!
Haha nah, the lady at the jerky counter was nice and complimented it! I did get this hat at a souvenir shop in Old Town Kissimmee.
@@madskelli
Oh, yeah I know, and she was very sweet.
I was just kidding. Florida is know for it's old folks communities, and of course "Florida Man". lol!
Ahhh, Kissimmee.
Native Indian for. Tourist Trap. lol!
The Jalapeno Cornbread Stuffed Chicken IS delicious!
I want to know how the cardboard straws we used in the 60s lasted for two days and the ones now dont last until youre done with your drink.
“Puh-CON!”
But is it PRA-LINE or PRA-LON? 🤣
@@madskelli The most common pronunciation is "PRAY-leen", but you will hear "PRAW-leen" as well. As for Pecan, it's either "pee-KAWN" or "pee-CAN".
@@jaycee330 pee-CAN??? Perhaps outside of Texas.
skelli and firebird now in technicolor
This looks like the Buc-cees in Florence SC
This is Daytona Beach FL! Definitely will check out all the Buc-ee’s someday!
Best store imo
Agree! 💯
I wonder if places like Buc-ee’s, would do well in Australia 🇦🇺, as there are some places near major interstate highways that would be great for out here in California.
I’ve noticed gradually some other states are getting a Buc-ee’s. It would be cool if one eventually gets built in California.
I do know a few places in California where a Buc-Ee’s would do great is one around Needles off of the I-10 there, one in Barstow where the I-15, I-40, and State Highway 58 meet up at, one near Arvin off of the I-5 there, one outside of Sacramento where I-5, I-80, and 99 freeways meet, and one in the Central San Joaquin Valley outside of Fresno would be welcome there for the area has a lot of people working there who would love it.
Look up “Trend the Globe” as it is a British Couple where they went to two Buc-ee’s, in Texas in Katy, Texas with the world longest car wash and another one going west on I-10 through Texas where they went to another location and got lunch there even for them it was a lot to eat there. If you are a light eater, you had better get too much there if you can’t eat it all or are looking to save and eat it providing you proper place to store it where it will be fresh and be re heated if you want to eat it again. They are driving their own RV Van that like in Australia the steering wheel is on the right side. I hope they don’t get too much of shock of this country driving the highways and interstates of this country.
Pralines are pronounced alternatingly as Pray-leens or Praw-leens.
My North Florida relatives call it Pray-lines, but after attending college and working in Louisiana I thought Praww-lines sounded more civil
Mad Skelli, I hope that when you were so close, you took a trip over to Cape Canaveral. I did a few years ago, and took a self-guided tour of the huge museum. It was amazing, and the percentage of foreign visitors was really high, especially (probably) because a few days later, Elon Musk launched something. There must have been between 20- to 30,000 spectators in the grassy strip between the Indian and Banana rivers, and the highway from all over the world.
Next time I’ll have to check it out.
We finally got a chance to visit a Buc-ee's, and we also were disappointed that there were no seating areas at which to enjoy the delicious brisket sandwiches.
My gripe about B, but I understand it. Of course, it saves them lots of money not to pick up trash. But I'm pretty sure that 1. They sell beer and they sell food and they would have to pay a lot of state fees for licenses with seating. 2. If they had seating areas they would have to police them to keep them from becoming the local teen hang out and enforce laws about not drinking/underage drinking on the premises. And in Texas, at least, that would end up with drag racing on the huge parking lots. Every teenagers dream!
I love getting ethanol-free gasoline at Buc-ee's. No other place sells it near me.
@ 06:38...what is that cruising behind you?
Hi there! We believe it is a Vanderhall.
A Vanderhall Carmel!
@@madskelli what in tarnation is that?
@@noneck3099 vanderhallusa.com/models-carmel-comparo/
woah..okay..there's some weird and wonderful machines!
@@madskelli
I hear there is a "GST" in USA but one is only told at the end...? Is that right..?
They add a sales tax at the end of every transaction. Not sure if Oregon still has a sales tax though.
@@madskelli Still don't. If they ever pass it (over my dead body) we'll have a triple whammy - income, property, sales. 🤬
The coffee I think is a big red tdermis for like a dollar It huge
You could eat bacon eggs and hash browns on the floor of their restrooms.
Fair dinkum!
6:35 what is that black car/trike sneaking past behind you?
We need to find out what that was! Looking into it!
It appears to be a Vanderhall.
@@madskelli Goggled it ruclips.net/video/fpSoDvSJPmk/видео.html thats the one
no offense to people. but thanks to youtube and different websites Buc-ees went from a place for Southerners and locals to been know around the world. I didint know about them until a wrestler that I follow on social media was talking about it. even made a bet to a fellow wrestler that if she lose some charity thing she would have to dress as the Buc-ee's mascot.
1:42 It’s not a polite word here either, in English, but the Mexican brand name is too established to change it!
One thing they do not have. Diet Ice
Buc-ee’s. Where you potty like a rockstar
Restrooms? So if I’m tired from walking around I go in there for a rest? 😂
Yes!!!
Restrooms are the term we use for public bathrooms in Americans. Years ago, I heard women started to use the term restroom because many public female bathrooms had a separate room with couches so that women could rest while waiting for an open bathroom stall or for their friends. As everyone knows, women love to go to the bathroom together.
6:51 BLASPHEMY!!
Texan here. They’re not “disgusting”. They’re just overwhelming; at least to me. Kellogg’s Corn Pops on crack.
Are beaver nuggets like dingle berries?
Funny enough, Bimbo is a Spanish food company.
Are Beaver Nuggets like Lolly Gobble Bliss Bombs?
They’re a caramelised chip! Yum!
@@madskelli I buy bags of those every time I'm around a Bucees!
@@marvinhenderson4417 they are pretty good! I already miss Bucee’s!
Unfortunately Bucees has done away with the dill pickle’s & onions for the sandwiches 😢😢😢😢😢 added Sooo much flavor
Our local Buc-ees is the same size as the entire Coles Complex in Alice Springs. over 80 gas pumps and the brisket sandwich is for real.
As an american. Is buc-ee's like the adult verson of chuckie's cheese, or Chuck-ee's? Im so confused.
I still need to visit a Chuckee Cheese.
It’s the worlds largest gas station and mainly they’re in Texas!
If the United States were a gas station it would be a Buc-ee's! Buc-ee the Beaver is the store mascot. For an adult version of Chuckie Cheese please see Dave and Busters.
Beaver nuggets, I agree I don’t like too much but seems foreigners seem to like them more…..
I think I saw a photo at a Buc-ees of someone with a bag of chocolate coated beaver nuggets. I think I may buy some next time.
Yeah I agree beaver nuggets are a big let down. But that brisket, fire!
@@dalemoore8582 I want to try every food item they have. I better write up a list!
@@madskelli it will take you a long time to eat everything have!!! Good luck!
@@dalemoore8582 exactly, I’ll make it a gradual process! More reasons for me to keep going back to Buc-ees!!!
They are not scones!!!
I agree. Beaver nuggets 👎
You are so cute!
Do you have a knife?
Buc-ees does not sell burgers!!
Sandwiches!
The problem is, all that food and NOWHERE to sit and eat
They want you to buy it and leave instead of rest on my journey....pass
It’s a bloody gas station. 🤦🏻♀️
A lot of people roll their eyes at the sheer levels of excess in the US. We get it, we're at the stage where we're really just parodying ourselves at this point.
American biscuits in Australia are called scones NOT cookies and American cookies are called biscuits in Australia..if you are going to represent Australia get it right!
I want a woman from Australia...or anywhere s but america
Stay Aussie mate !!!
Cheers mate! 🇦🇺
