It's a Texas institution with a national footprint: a chain of road stop convenience stores the size of the Lone Star State, with a smiling cartoon beaver mascot and a devoted following. Correspondent Luke Burbank travels to Buc-ee's to find out why customers are so driven to visit. (Is it the award-winning bathrooms?)

I've been to numerous Buc-cees and the experience is like nothing else. The employees are incredibly friendly and welcoming, the entire store is spotless, the public rest rooms are terrific and the barbecue brisket sandwiches are to die for. Once you've been to a Buc-cees, it's close to impossible to see one and not stop there. Buc-cees is destined for world domination of the gas station industry.

Never underestimate the power of cleanliness. Especially when it comes to restrooms, customers will go out of their way for a place that is comfortable and clean. That goes double for a world coming out of a pandemic. (And, yes, if you're a CEO who wants clean restrooms, you'll need to pay your employees enough to do a good job cleaning them.)

It's really nice to see a privately owned business still spending money and investing in quality service in service and food for its customers and for its employees. We live in a nation where everything is being cut back, made cheaper, giving people less for more money. This business is built on the ethics that built this country and gave us a first world quality economy.

It really hit me when he talked about not having to answer to shareholders and investors about cutting costs. It's so true. Many once amazing brands have had their value propositions diluted by overlord bean counters, and it's almost always hurt the bottom line. From Ritz Carlton to Staples to Kraft Heinz, there are just so many examples of this -- but very few business leaders in the publicly-held sector who seem willing to learn from it.

Living here in Texas, I’ve watched this franchise grow from those early days to today. It took one stop at a store and I was hooked . Whether you need gas or just a restroom break , you can’t help but stop there just for the food and snacks for that road trip. With all that “square footage”, there’s more in that store than food and snacks !!! The owners are the “poster child” for what these highway road stops should be like. It’s a win-win for “Buc-ees”, hands down!!!!!

@@largol33t1 Houston has the little ones all over the town, but for the travel centers its about catching travel traffic. Also have the small ones I've seen around Lake Jackson and some of the smaller near by towns as well. I don't see many other "truck stops" in downtown Dallas for Ft. Worth either. Take a trip north out on 75..,East on 20.... South or north on 35 and you will see one. When I travel out East I usually stop at the one in Terrell along the way. About an hour or so from the house. Used to live right by that one. I go filled up there and headed toward San Antonio down 35 I'd see another one about the time I needed gas and a "pit stop". Worth it for a trip, but I'd not really go out of my way much. They are nice. Maybe they will open the "smaller ones" in town. They don't have the home goods, camping type stuff, or BBQ cooking stuff. Just snacks, drinks, and small kitchen as well as a regular number of pumps and clean bathrooms.

There’s no “labor shortage”, for working at a gas station, you’re paid competitive wages and not to mention full benefits like healthcare and retirement?

My only gripe concerns the customers who park at a gas pump and disappear into the store for an hour or two.

Job well done Buccee! We have family in Texas and travel there often. We MUST stop at Buc-Cee’s! When my adult children aren’t with us we literally have to pack a cooler and pick up banana pudding(s), sandwiches, rock candy (dozen), 1/2 dozen bags of nuggets, jerky, and bags of chips on our way back to Illinois! We spent $200.00 last week on goodies! We love, love Buc-cee’s! It’s a must when we travel to Texas! 🇺🇸❤️👍🏼

@@rogersmith7808 sorry for thinking that bad word. I was making $6.50 an hour in the mid-70s. Had plenty money gas was about 0.45 a gal. When yes went to 55 cents a gal. we thought it was outrageous. Surprise surprise 2022 almost $5 a gallon. Wages are the same almost. That's a disgrace. I think McDonald's employees make more than that. Some people think $20 an hour is way too much. We shouldn't even have to have a minimum wage the employer should $15 an hour at least to make tacos R burgers. But I'm sure that taco would cost 6 bucks easy. Rent was 300 for Apartments back then. Pretty soon the loaf of bread will cost $40 milk $70 all because the green deal. Which is not necessary.

@@leswalker2639 If you were making $6.40/hour in the 1970s you were making damn good money since the minimum wage then was less than half that. The current minimum wage hasn't changed since 2009 because rich people and corporations control the political system in this country and they don't want the minimum wage raised so now we're operating on a system where the wages that companies pay depend on the size of the labor force and how competitive they have to be to hire and keep employees. I personally don't mind paying 20 cents more for a Big Mac if that means McDonalds can pay their employees enough to live on.

We were on a road trip to Texas in 2019 when we discovered Buc-ee’s. What a hoot. On a Florida road trip in 2021, Buc-ee’s was a planned part of the itinerary. Our excitement exploded when Buc-ee’s announced they had acquired land to open a location near the intersection of I-40 and I-85 in Orange County NC…about 10 miles from my house. Problems arose with the county commissioners of Orange County. It’s said that communism has been debunked pretty much worldwide except for Cuba, North Korea, China, Russia and Orange County NC. The zoning that was required to allow construction to begin was not allowed. The pol’s infinite wisdom cited noise, and the fact that fossil fuels were dying as a means to power transportation. (Not kidding…they actually said that). The Buc-ee’s folks tried everything to work with the commissioners, but their efforts were to no avail. The end came, and as the Buc-ee’s people left town without a deal, they wrote an open letter to the community. The best line was they were glad Orange County already had too many $15 per hour entry level jobs that they didn’t need any more. What a bunch of pinheads…but they were answering to their constituents. Hopefully there will be a friendlier spot for a Buc-ee’s somewhere in NC in the future.
