They tried to open a second place in Colorado but the city shut it down, good riddance, don't see the appeal especially with all the extra traffic👎

The appeal is the homemade BBQ, beef jerky and the fresh roasted nuts available in a family friendly environment made by employees that are being paid more than similar businesses.

All this! Had not been to one in years until just a few weeks ago stopped at one in Kentucky. I love them, bbq, home made fudge in 30-40 varieties, unbelievable selection of fresh Jerky. 200 gas pumps. What’s not to love.

Drove by the one in CO off I-25 weeks after it opened, just to see what all the fuss was about. That huge place was packed, not one parking space open, cars lined up out into the street. Never did step foot into the joint.

Reminded me of that huge Terribles Chevron off I-15 outside of Vegas in Jean, NV. I guess it’s kind of like when a new In-N-Out opens. Could see how the neighbors wouldn’t exactly be thrilled.

Overrated!

Their food is NASTY! So they have 80 packages of the same popcorn or pringles, who cares, you just need one.

I agree with OP about Maverick's. Give me a standard Maverick's over the Buc-ee ANYDAY!

I like Mavericks they are the best here in Utah, but not even close to a Buc-ee’s. It’s funny because Mavericks 35 years ago were the absolute last place you wanted to fill up at and the stores were filthy.

I like that new one off of Acoma and Sweetwater.

We went to Good Guys car show at West World in Scottsdale yesterday and we stopped at a gas station just next to it called “the thumb” and they sell Sunoco racing fuel!
