You guys have fun while in Texas.
Those breakfast croissants are pretty good also.
Egg, sausage, bacon, potatoe, bacon, cheese n something else
Oh lawwwwwd 😊
That’s some good footage Erica!!
You ought to contribute in crtiquing BBQ on every video in this channel. You have been doing well, and it helps to get the additional feedback.
😂😂😂 did they know you were still recording? That is freaking hilarious
Few people know this but Buc-cee's is actually Latin for: Did I just really spend $100 on snacks.
But none of those snacks are Pepsi products, Reese's or Kit Kats. :P
Not a Texas native here, just here working, and everything he said about Buc-cee’s is 100% accurate. I don’t know if it’s possible to go there without spending $100. 😂 I’m going to be moving out of Texas in a couple months, and I’m going to miss both Buc-cee’s and HEB. Most other things about/in the state is more “take it or leave it,” but those two places are amazing.
Moved from West Texas to DFW back in 2016 and had the joy of discovering a ton of Buccee's within an hour drive of us. Wife and I make mini "road trips" to go to different ones.
Moved to Florida for about 18 months and SERIOUSLY went through Buccee's withdrawals. Back in DFW and it feels so good to have access again. Yeah, them and HEB.
I feel for you @leftykiller. Take solace in the fact that Buccee's is expanding slowly but surely.
I remember HEB would usually have fresh squeezed OJ from the oranges they couldn't sell.
Somehow HEB is better at food recycling than most fancier grocery stores. They really are the best grocery store.
As a former Houstonian of 19 years you are 1000% correct. Can't tell you how much we miss HEB and Buc-cee's
As a former Houstonian (63 years), I sorely miss HEB. We have a Buc-cee's about 30 mins away, but the closest HEB is well over an hours drive (depending on traffic) from us.
It's easy to spend $100 there, everything is overpriced. #bucceessux
It’s neat seeing Buccees grow at the astronomical rate it is . I remember going to the original Buccees in Clute looooooong ago , now they are as big as a Walmart and better stuff than Walmart
I didn't know the OG Buccees was in Clute! I'll have to make a pilgrimage there this week and pay respects.
I moved to H Town in 2013 and Buccees is in my Top 5 favorite things about TX.
@miwakat - "as big as walmart?" nowhwere close...
@@z-z-z-z He isn't saying the company is as big as Wal-Mart...he said it was as big as A Walmart, as in the square footage of that specific building compared to a Wal-Mart. They are actually bigger if you look at the parking lot.
@@tstanley01 - my bad; i stand corrected. i did not see the "A."
What sucks about the growth is that they get special tax breaks (like sales tax refunds) that existing small businesses don't get. That helps Buckees put the local small operators out of business. I hate corporate welfare. Here locally, they gave Costco $15 million to build the new Costco. GMAFB
I worked at Bucees deli. They brought in a chemical engineer who designed the brisket. He brought in 40 different tasting briskets and said our vote is the one that makes it. It was a great day. They smoke them somewhere else and freeze them and send to the store. Store pops them in an oven for like 8 hours. It's honestly the top 3 brisket ive ever had. Nobody EVER believes me when i say its legit great brisket.
If it's top 3 for ya, you haven't made the rounds. 8)
@@jdog1297 Have you ate there?
@@Shicklebob-b3l I live in the South, yes, many times. Their jerky is my fav 🤷🏻♂️
@@jdog1297 to each their own.
Lol I guarantee each brisket was the exact same 😂 bucbees is dogshit
Man! You and Joe DEFINITELY nailed the Buc-cee's experience! For example, the food (including the brisket, chips and Kolaches). Way better going there than going to any fast food place or just in general if you don't have time to stop for a restaurant meal. Whenever we are on the road in Texas, Buc-cee's is definitely one of our stops. I agree that their brisket, though not the best, is better than some places that supposedly specialize in BBQ and are overpriced. You mentioned the gazillion gas pumps as well. I was watching the whole video and seeing that it was getting close to the end and thinking to myself "I can't believe they didn't mention the restrooms." Well, sure enough, right at the end, you did." I wish I would have known where you were (which Buc-cee's) you guys were at. Would have loved to meet you all. All the best to you guys. Happy trails.
At 8:42 he mentioned going in the cleanest bathroom known to man😂
Gotta be bastrop if they were at comedy mothership the night before right? Parking lot looks like it
The warm candied pecans are where it's at at Buc-cee's!
A little background on my first WHATABURGER in the early 70's Port Arthur,southeast,Texas. Only Whataburger in the area. They took a meatball out of a metal bowl that was sitting in ice. Toss it on the griddle right in front of me and flatten somewhat. Grease fat flying popping
everywhere. S and P on the patty. Threw the long crinkle cut fries in fryer again in front of me. Toasted the buns on the griddle in the fat with butter. Pulled fries out and salted. Mayo and mustard dressed out burger. You had to do the lean over to eat the burger. Juicy juicy and it didn't fall apart. That was the absolute best burger. Nobody has come close to that burger. Now today cooking is hidden. If you want a hot fresh burger go early in the morning. They have to cook patty fresh. Burger is no where juicy as before but good. No more crinkle cut fries. That is a loss in my book. Today's what whataburger is a disappointment to when I was a teenager.
“I think we manage the go in there, and get all this stuff, and still not get a water… “ 😂 That’s definitely the Buc-cee’s experience!
100% LOLOL
Can't get better than this. Both guys are outstanding BBQers. I love watching both of their RUclips channels
Texan here and I love Buc-ee’s! It’s always an expensive trip though. Surprised you didn’t show the rubs and sauces. There’s some good ones in there
I spent 100 on JUST the rubs my self hahahahahaha
I was pleased with the brisket I had from buc-ees personally for coming from a hot and ready gas station. Thanks for whatbyou do for us. Be safe and be blessed!
You didn't mention the awesomely clean mega bathrooms. My wife says there to die for 😂. But, the overall experience is freaking Cool 😎. $100 stop over all day long not including the gas ⛽. But, a cool experience just the same.
I've gone into buccees to buy some water, and ended up spending $100
That’s why I’m afraid of getting one here in Tallahassee Florida!
Oh yeah... it'll suck you in with all the food and stuff. I think they pump something into the AC system.
The Buccee’s Brisket was up there on my last BBQ tour of Texas last year.
I love Buc’ees. We have one in central Kentucky (Richmond). The sliced brisket sandwich is better than the chopped in my opinion.
I love stopping at the Richmond bucees
very true
I got a brisket sandwich there with zero expectations last week and was shocked it was actually decent brisket!
I live in Florida and grab a brisket sandwich and a bag of jerky everytime I bring the family to Georgia. We love buc-ee's
It’s not for democrats which is why I love it
I went to the buccee's outside of Austin last year. The beef jerky selection is amazing and the food overall is outstanding. I was surprised at the amount of bagged ice coolers surrounding the building. Had to be 30 or more. Definitely a must visit anytime you're near a Buccee's
Have you tried the brisket at The Texan in Schulenberg, Texas? It's much like Buc-ee's... a large truck stop, with a bazillion fuel pumps, large clean bathrooms, all the trucker paraphernalia you could ever want & lotsa MEAT!!! I recommend the Brisket Mac platter. I had never heard of such a combo before. It's about a pound of macaroni and cheese topped with a generous layer of shredded smoked brisket, BBQ sauce & jalapeños optional... You can buy a variety of pastries too, kolaches included. I died & went to heaven!!! Then, as you go to check out, you're confronted with bulk bins of jerky! Heaven!!!
you have to ask for Pickles and Onions. They come in a bag on the side. but you need to ask for them.
I just came yesterday from Texas. First time visiting. When I mentioned to my wife to go Buc-ees she refused and on the last day going to airport she felt bad and we stopped. That was her favorite stop. She got so much stuff. I tried sliced brisket sandwich. It was good and I’ve had Franklin’s BBQ. I spent $250 and forgot to get pulled pork. I think I bought too much and I was eating it for 4 days and still brought home half. My advice try many places and get half a pound unless you have 3-4 guys who love meats.
Why did she refuse in the first place?
Sausage on a stick wrapped in a tortilla is excellent too. They used to have some spicy saltine crackers that were awesome but the past couple of times I've been, I haven't seen them.
Went there for the first time in February. Beaver nuggets are fantastic. Brisket was very good, gestation brisket. And the bathrooms cleaned almost between uses.
It's not a gas station. It's Buckies. 🤣
Best thing at Buccees: bathrooms. Single stall bathrooms with walls and privacy and so clean
You “get” a collectible mug IF you purchase the collectible mug, which IS the only way you can enter the smoker giveaway….. Unless I’m missing something?
Seems that way. $57 collectable mug… WTF
@@alex83h Just didn’t seem overly transparent on the presentation of it. Otherwise I like this channel and understand it’s got to make $$. Just seemed a little douchey.
I'm heading to Pigeon Forge from Pittsburgh in July. The exact exit we take in Tennessee just built a brand new Buc'cees that is set to open in early June. I've never been to a Buc'cees, but I've heard of it. I heard it's half of the day's experience.
My grandma who was pure Czech used to make kolaches when I was a kid and they were amazing. I dont know what the hell they gave you though, sure wasn’t correct, that was like a pig in a blanket. A kolache was always like a dessert that was a round baked bread with a fruit type filling on the top of it.
This is more of a klobasnek, but everyone around here calls these things kolaches, I don't get it. Go to West, stop by Gerik's or Slovaceks or Czech Stop (I prefer in that order) and get an actual kolache
Blessed to come from an area of Texas that has some Czech roots because I've always known kolaches as the pastry that you're talking about! I refuse to call anything else a kolaches..I call em pig in the blankets
All of my grandparents are of Czech heritage. A kolache is a fruit filled pastry, most commonly with a prune filling. The sausage in a bun thing is a Klobasnek. Calling those Kolaches would be like calling a taco an enchilada. It's just a little annoying to anyone with a dear ol' grandma, like me, who used to make real kolaches.
P. S. I live about a mile from a Bucees. I only go there for the jerky. Bucees is for everyone passing through town.
Bro big fan man… I use to work with your brother Yoder here in colorado man he’s the one that put me on also his brisket is awesome!!
Bucc-ees is an amazing place, I go there every day. Their brisket is hit and miss. Your review was spot on. It needs more smoke and is not too robust. Sometimes it’s very good, not the greatest, but sometimes it’s really disappointing. I don’t buy their brisket anymore. But I love that place ♥️ And as for Whataburger, you need to ask for the burger well done, and go with mayo instead of mustard. Then you’ll appreciate it. Go well-done on their patty melt and that thing is spectacular too.
We go to Texas once a year for the Hotter 'n Hell 100 in Wichita Falls. We fly into DFW and there's a Buc-ee's on the way out. We get a brisket sandwich, pulled pork sandwich, a pound or two of jerky, homemade potato chips, nuts...the list goes on. Never seem to get out under $200
Yup, definitely have taken the 45min drive to get to my nearest Buc-ees. Worth it each time. You gotta try the jambalaya stuffed chicken (frozen section)!
I just got one and I hope to smoke it this week
I went to a gas station outside of Kansas City on accident that had the best KC bbq I've ever had in my life.
That's a low bar but good bbq in KC has to exist somewhere
@@robhimself79 in KS @ my house
Joe's KC BBQ!
Doesn't say much for KC bbq
What was it called?
We love Buccees! We were visiting our daughter in Ft Worth! I had that same XL Brisket Sandwich! I want to move to Texas...from Seattle!
Buc-ee's is awesome! We stopped at the one in Calhoun, GA on our way back from Disney, earlier this year. 😎
Where was this? If you were in New Braunfels, you were about 2 miles from the TX BBQ Crossroads. Rudy's, Blacks & Cooper's within a quarter mile of each other on Loop 337 near Gruene.
Native Californian, and I LOVE bucees. It's my family's favorite thing in TX!!
We have a Buc-ee's like 30 minutes (St. Augustine FL) from the house. It's a great place to get a cheap brisket sandwich and some of those cinnamon glazed pecans. We have another location 1.5 hours south in Daytona also. We can spend the day at Daytona Beach and grab a sandwich on the way home.
$49 dollars plus $7 shipping. You seriously are asking for $56 for a coffee mug? I might pay $56 for a coffee maker, but never that much for the vessel to drink the beverage.
He has to pay for that thing somehow.
I've been wanting to go since they opened in SC, just to check it out. I think it's time.
Loved this candid episode!! We're from Canada & went to our first buc-ees while on March break this year & was blown away also!
(PS: I wish I had an American address so I could win that smoker... it sure would make living in a country with permafrost that much nicer 😅)
I was thinking the same lol, I am from EU.
I'm in MN USA and the drive to pick that smoker up would be a two to three day trip each way. But, I am in my 60's and that machine could be my retirement. Pull that thing out on the ice covered lake in late January and sell brisket and sausages all day. Heavenly!
Not from Texas here but love watching
It's been awhile since I've been to Buccees. The road munchies selection there are second to none! Glad you guys hit it! And... while you are in the Austin area.. please visit my Costco in Pflugerville! I would love to meet y'all!!
I had one of their XL sandwiches in Ft. Worth while on a road trip. For what it was, I was impressed
I'm from Texas and work for the railroad. San antonio to Houston run. We stop at buckeys all the time while deadheading and absolutely hate their brisket. Love everything else though.❤
I’ve gone to bucees to buy a gas jug before. I live in Fort Worth and I don’t like their barbecue but some of their other food is good. Definitely a lot of unique items in bucees!
"i do not regret my decisions" put it on the shirt. awesome review
Love that you found this Valhalla
Tell Guga to do a Bucee's video while he is doing his book tour in Austin!
This is great! Welcome to Buc-cee's! The club melt is awesome!
This is probably the 2nd or third video ive watched of you and i definitely subbed 💪🏽
bucees is a must on every road trip leaving houston. im glad you liked it
I love bucees!! My favorite stop for smoked meats(even more then bucees) is Prasek's in Hillje Texas. It's a few miles south of a Houston. I don't know if you'll ever go that way, but I definitely recommend. It's my happy place.
We stopped in last year. I can't beleive you didn't review the bag of beaver pellets on the wheel well, or what ever they are called. We loved those. The venison sausage at the meat market counter brought me back to the hard tac my friends dad made back home as a kid.
Best pulled pork sandwich i ever had was a gas station fuel stop on rt 52 in North Carolina
When filming outside with lots of sunlight, use a ND filter on your lens. It'll fix your overexposure
Love me some Buc-ee’s. Their brisket scrambled eggs breakfast tacos are amazing
They just opened a Bu-cee’s where I live over two weeks ago. I’ve been there every day lol
Great video! I have people pick up Buc-ee's hot sauce and bring it to me. By far my favorite.
BUC-EES IS AWESOME!! 😀👍
I love stopping at Buc-cee's on my way to Florida.
I’ve visited friend up North and let me tell you. That Barbecue is a hell of a lot better than anything I’ve tasted when I’ve visit them.
I like to check out their rubs and sauces. Bought a rub called Uncle Steves Gator shake. It was really good.
I’m not sure where you call home these days, but there is a Buc-ee’s off I-75 in Richmond, KY should you need to get a fix!
Their brisket and pulled pork is made in Richmond Utah by Lower Foods.
they used to get their jerky and some other stuff from new braunfels smokehouse
We stopped at one in northern Alabama passing through, it seemed like I giant public bathroom that also sold food. It seemed like you could smell the Covid
Buc-ees has great BBQ for a gas station. I miss it but they have pne in Colorado now opening soon. Lobby for a Buc-ees! I asked if they have a bridal registry but they didn't respond.
I have eaten brisket at about 20 different places and some of the best I had was at a community college with a culinary program.
I think they just built the largest one near me in Tennessee (until the next one). Got to check it out
Love coming for the BBQ. The fudge is good, too.
A dozen kolaches from Shipley's donuts is always on the list when we visit Houston.
If we drive, Buccees is always one of our stops! Love the video
Forgive my Shipleys bashing, that’s what you get to appease the whiny kids in the back, they actually do suck and if that’s your goto, then you need to get out more. I’m not alone when I say “The Original Kolache Shoppe” on telephone road is the best kolache I’ve ever eaten and I’ve been in Texas all of my 54 years. They gotz these ham and cheese “croissants”….. a tad salty, but sweet baby Jesus, they’re so good!!!
@@htownpony8449 pinned your place thank you, but from Humble/Kingwood, your place is quite a trek.
You are not wrong, the ham and cheese from Shipley's is not as good as it once was. The sausage and cheese gives me the fix I need. AND Shipley's is on every corner.
Taste is subjective, one man's trash is onther man's treasure.
@@jeffreychristensen4614 on that we agree, brother….taste is subjective. Obviously there’s no way for you to know this, but I worked with some rather “large” men and these dudes were always bringing different stuff to taste and after 7 different kolache places “The Original Kolache Shoppe” became our immediate go to place for breakfast. Second being breakfast tacos from Jaliscos taqueria……man, I miss those days.
For a grab n go sandwich they're really good. I also love their Texas cheese steak burritos.
I saw the beaver nuggets bag! You should've tried them on the video. So good! 🤣
I like the triple meat sandwich! Smoked Turkey, brisket,and sausage! It’s the bomb! 💣 Although I’ve only found it at Buc-cees Katy outside Houston! I stop the every time!
Hi Mate, hope you are well. My daughter & I have been trying to sign up for the 1000 Gallon comp, but doesn't look like it is available for outside the USA. More than happy to pay the freight & then some if we win. Is this an option?
Thanks
Jamie & Chloe
Y’all described this EXACTLY how I felt about the brisket from there.
Every time I pass through Alabama, I have to get the brisket sandwich from buc ees. And the beaver nuggets go great with the brisket!
You are from texas and just now went to bucees. I’m from Pennsylvania and go 3-4 times a year lol😂
They have a great selection of bbq rubs too.
We're spending a week in texas shortly, and one of the highlights is always going to be buccees. I like the beaver nuts. Thats not what they call them, but they are candied pecans at any rate.
Had their brisket and egg burrito for breakfast. Pretty darn tasty for a road stop.
I have a comparison video I would like to see you do.
There is a local company from my home Town of Longmont CO called fatworks. They sell beef tallow. I have no affiliation I just love their products. They have an A5 waygu beef tallow that is phenomenal. I've used the south Chicago packing tallow and love that as well. The difference is this A5 waygu stays in almost a melted state all the time. I injected a brisket a couple weekends ago and the tallow didn't even need heated up. I thought it was better but i may be biased. I would love to see a comparison video done.
Buccees is big about their clean restrooms. If I was going to stop somewhere I'd be comfortable with buccees.
For kolache. Which you can get at donut shops. I like the hot dog and cheese ones with some mustard.
I am so excited about my new Pit. 😀 Great video as always. Sorry about your knife. 🤐
The bathrooms are incredible
Heard about this place on the Bee series about Californians moving to Texas 😂
I ❤ Beaver! Love Buc-ee's. One of my favorite places to go. I've hit all beavers from San Antonio to Florida. Whattaburger is far superior to In and Out burger. hands down.
Great video, you need to compare it to Rudy’s bbq, which is another gas station place that sells brisket.
Is that the Waller Buc-ees? They used to make dark chocolate -pecan fudge for me.
First time I went to buccees after moving to a new state I was too poor to afford that 15$ monster of a brisket sandwich but about a month later after working, I had to road-trip and drove by a buccees, I’m proud to say I’m no longer a virgin and my life is permanently changed
Welcome to Texas boss. Lol when you live down the st from a buckeys you literally have to stop yourself from going. Everything is good. Breakfast tocos are amazing
"Its not a gas station..Its a Buc-ee's!" 🤣😂
Bucees is actually solid better than most BBQ restaurants. I love it! Fast and simple
My favorite thing at buc-cees is them little chophouse roast beef cold cut sandwiches
I'm from TX and stay close to a B's.... not really a big fan, but their fountain drinks is nice
I’m blessed by our lord to work about 10 minuets from a Buccee’s, best lunch spot in town!
Lol. We go every chance we get. Love Buckys
Love Buc-ee's, they have a condiment bar too where you can get pickles, jalapeños, etc to be able to kick your sandwich up.
