Buc-ee’s Breaks Ground in Murfreesboro: The Beaver Expands Its Tennessee Territory!

Big news, Buc-ee’s fans! The mighty beaver is expanding again — this time deeper into the heart of Tennessee. On Tuesday, October 14, Buc-ee’s officially broke ground on its newest travel center in Murfreesboro, marking the fourth Buc-ee’s location in the Volunteer State.

A Big Day for Murfreesboro

The groundbreaking ceremony, held at I-24 and Joe B. Jackson Parkway, brought together local and state leaders, including Tennessee Governor Bill Lee, Rutherford County Mayor Joe Carr, and members of the Murfreesboro City Council.

Governor Lee shared his excitement, saying, “We’re proud to welcome another Buc-ee's location to Tennessee! This great American company is bringing jobs, economic growth & world-famous hospitality to Murfreesboro.”

And he’s right — this new Buc-ee’s will be a major addition to the area. Spanning a whopping 74,000 square feet and featuring 120 fueling positions, the Murfreesboro Buc-ee’s will bring the brand’s legendary mix of clean restrooms, fresh food, and Texas-sized friendliness to even more travelers across the Southeast.

A Beaver-Sized Impact
When it opens — projected for November 2026 — the Murfreesboro store will be one of the largest Buc-ee’s in Tennessee. Inside, guests will find all the Buc-ee’s favorites we know and love:

• Texas barbeque fresh from the pit
• Homemade fudge and fresh pastries from the bakery
• Beaver Nuggets, kolaches, and jerky galore
• And of course, the friendliest beaver in the business greeting you at the door

Stan Beard, Buc-ee’s Director of Real Estate and Development, said it best: “Murfreesboro has been a great partner to work with since we first visited. This community will be a welcome pitstop for folks traveling to and from Nashville, Atlanta, and the Gulf Coast.”

Tennessee’s Growing Buc-ee’s Family
With Murfreesboro joining the lineup, Tennessee will now boast four Buc-ee’s locations. Karla and I have already made our way to the Crossville and Sevierville stores, and each one has delivered that signature Buc-ee’s experience we’ve come to love — spotless, welcoming, and packed with flavor.

We’re already counting down the days until we can add Murfreesboro to our Buc-ee’s List. It’s another exciting stop in Buc-ee’s journey across America, bringing that warm Texas spirit to even more travelers on the road.

Final Thoughts from the Trail
From brisket sandwiches to Beaver Nuggets, Buc-ee’s continues to prove that it’s not just a pit stop — it’s a destination. And for Tennessee, this expansion means more than just a store. It’s another chance to experience what we Texans call “the travelers’ oasis.”

Keep snackin’. Keep smilin’. Keep travelin’. And always keep Buc-ee’s on your horizon.

A Sweet Morning at Buc-ee’s Leeds: Muffins, Statues, and a Super Sausage Taco to Remember

Howdy, Buc-ee’s lovers! The Snackin’ Buckaroo and my lovely wife, Karla, saddled up once again and made our way to one of our favorite travel stops — the Buc-ee’s in Leeds, Alabama — on October 18. And let me tell y’all, this visit was packed with a few delicious surprises and one mighty fine collectible!

A Muffin Morning to Remember

Karla, who has a knack for finding the sweetest treasures at Buc-ee’s, made a beeline for the bakery counter — and struck gold. She came away with an assortment of fresh muffins that were as good as they looked.

Her top pick? The Orange Cranberry Walnut muffin — bursting with citrusy brightness, nutty crunch, and just the right touch of sweetness. But she didn’t stop there. She also snagged a Blueberry muffin (an all-time favorite), a cozy Cinnamon Chip, and a decadent Double Chocolate muffin. Every one of them was soft, flavorful, and baked to Buc-ee’s perfection.

Let’s just say the bakery team at Leeds deserves a big ol’ Snackin’ Buckaroo salute for these sweet delights!

The Super Sausage Taco Delivers Big Flavor

While Karla was exploring the sweeter side of Buc-ee’s, I was wrangling up some breakfast of my own — the Super Sausage Taco. Packed with sausage, potato, egg, and beans, and finished with a touch of that signature green sauce, this breakfast taco was nothing short of spectacular.

Pair it with a steaming cup of Buc-ee’s House Blend Coffee, and you’ve got yourself the kind of breakfast that keeps you fueled for the long haul — or at least until your next Buc-ee’s stop!

A Mini Statue with a Mighty Spirit

Before we rode off, I spotted something new that I just couldn’t resist — the Buc-ee’s Mini Statue. It’s a smaller version of the big, smiling beaver statue that greets you outside every Buc-ee’s. Now I’ve got my own Buc-ee’s mascot to keep me company at home — a perfect reminder of the joy and adventure this brand brings every time we visit.

Final Thoughts from the Road
Every Buc-ee’s trip has its own charm, but this Leeds visit had a special mix of sweet discoveries, hearty breakfast, and collectible magic. Whether it’s the muffins that make your morning or the statues that make you smile, Buc-ee’s always finds a way to turn a pit stop into a full-on experience.

Keep snackin’. Keep smilin’. Keep travelin’. And always keep Buc-ee’s on your horizon.

Buc-ee’s Coming to Wyandotte County by Fall 2027

Big news for Kansas City, Kansas! Wyandotte County can officially expect a Buc-ee’s on its turf by fall 2027 at the latest, according to the county’s economic development director.

The Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City, Kansas’ board of commissioners recently approved a revision to the project’s development agreement. The update shifts the construction start date to October 1, 2025, and gives Buc-ee’s 24 months to complete the build. That timeline places the opening no later than October 2027.

The billion-dollar, Texas-based travel center and gas station chain is bringing its beloved brand of brisket, Beaver Nuggets, and spotless restrooms to Village West Parkway in KCK. The new Buc-ee’s will be a 74,000-square-foot travel center featuring 120 gas pumps and 12 electric vehicle charging stations.

The project comes with a hefty $95 million price tag, financed through a mix of private equity, debt, and public sales tax dollars via a community improvement district approved earlier this summer.

While construction was originally set to begin earlier this year, a combination of factors—including securing tax incentive agreements, adjusting legal descriptions, and some weather-related delays—pushed the start date back.

Even with the delay, Buc-ee’s loyal fans in Kansas and Missouri have plenty to celebrate. Once complete, this mega travel center will serve as a destination for road trippers, commuters, and anyone looking to fuel up with Buc-ee’s legendary snacks and hospitality.

Keep snackin'. Keep smilin'. Keep travelin'.

A Sweet Discovery at Buc-ee’s Leeds: Cinnamon Pullaparts

On our latest stop at the Buc-ee’s in Leeds, Alabama, we stumbled upon a brand-new treat that quickly won us over — Cinnamon Pullaparts.

Thanks to a recommendation from Matthew, the general manager, we decided to give them a try. One bite in, and we knew this was something special. Soft, sweet, and bursting with cinnamon goodness, these pullaparts are the perfect companion to a cup of Buc-ee’s fresh-brewed coffee or a Texas Squeeze orange juice.

We’ve always said Buc-ee’s is more than a pit stop — it’s a Traveler’s Oasis. And discoveries like this prove it. Each visit brings something new, from the classic brisket sandwiches to surprise offerings like these Cinnamon Pullaparts. They remind us why we keep returning, not just for the snacks we love, but for the excitement of what’s waiting around the corner.

If you’re heading to the Leeds Buc-ee’s, make sure to check the bakery case for these pullaparts. Trust us — they’re worth the stop!

Until next time, happy travels and happy snacking. 🐿️✨

Buc-ee’s Leeds, Alabama — Our Home Away from Home

On Saturday, July 19, 2025, just days after the grand opening of the Brunswick, GA store, Karla and I found ourselves back at one of our favorite Buc-ee’s stops — Leeds, Alabama. While we may visit Leeds every month, each trip feels like coming home to family. This store holds a special place in our hearts, and this visit was no different.

Sharing Stories and Smiles
We were eager to share our Brunswick adventure, complete with photos, with Windy and Matthew, the general manager at Leeds. Their smiles and excitement made us feel like we were reliving that grand opening all over again. Matthew and his team run a store they can truly be proud of — spotless, friendly, and filled with the kind of hospitality that makes Buc-ee’s famous.

A Breakfast Tradition
No visit to Leeds is complete without my traditional Buc-ee’s

breakfast, and this one hit all the right notes:

• Brisket taco — smoky, savory, and generously packed
• Beaver tots — perfectly fried, perfectly salted
• Buc-ee’s House Blend coffee — rich, hot, and deeply satisfying
• Texas Squeeze orange juice — my favorite way to toast the morning

It’s the kind of breakfast that doesn’t just fill you up — it fuels your day.

Taking a Taste of Buc-ee’s Home
Before heading out, we made sure dinner was taken care of Buc-ee’s style:

• Sliced brisket — tender, juicy, and packed with flavor
• Loaded potato salad — creamy, hearty, and full of bite
• Coconut cream pudding — the sweet finish every BBQ meal deserves
• Half-pound of dried peppered beef from the jerky bar — my go-to road trip snack

That’s the beauty of Buc-ee’s: you can have a legendary meal right there or take it with you and make the magic last a little longer.

The Warmest Hugs in the Buc-ee’s Family

We’ve met incredible people at every Buc-ee’s we’ve visited, but Leeds holds the crown for the biggest and best hugs. It’s more than customer service — it’s genuine friendship. Walking into Leeds feels less like stepping into a convenience store and more like dropping by to visit old friends.

Buc-ee’s Leeds will always be a touchstone for us. It’s where road trips begin, where stories are shared, and where Texas hospitality is alive and well in the heart of Alabama.

Keep snackin’. Keep smilin’. Keep travelin’.

Brunswick, Georgia Buc-ee’s Grand Opening — A Taste of Texas on the Georgia Coast

July 1, 2025 marked a milestone for Buc-ee’s fans across the Southeast — the grand opening of the brand-new Brunswick, Georgia Buc-ee’s! Karla and I made the trip to be part of the celebration, and what a day it turned out to be.

The air was filled with excitement (and the mouthwatering aroma of BBQ) as guests poured in to explore the massive new store. From the moment we stepped through the doors, we were greeted by that unmistakable Buc-ee’s blend of energy, friendliness, and Texas pride.

Meeting Buc-ee’s Legends

One of the biggest highlights of the day was meeting Arch Aplin III, the founder of Buc-ee’s. We had been looking forward to this for years, and the moment didn’t disappoint. Arch graciously signed my treasured March 2019 issue of Texas Monthly and posed for a photo with us — courtesy of our new friend Randy Pauly, Director of BBQ, who, by the way, takes a fantastic selfie. Arch’s daughter, Katherine, also signed our copy of Buc-ee Goes to School, instantly turning it into a family heirloom.

We also had the pleasure of meeting Randy Pauly himself — the legend of BBQ — and Jim Mills, Director of Culinary Services. Randy’s warm personality and quick humor matched his reputation, and Jim and I had a wonderful conversation about Buc-ee’s food philosophy, the bakery, and the art of the perfect jerky recommendation.

The People Who Make Buc-ee’s Special
Buc-ee’s is famous for its spotless stores, delicious food, and endless merchandise, but it’s the people who truly make the experience. On opening day in Brunswick, we met:

• Alicia & Serena — friendly and efficient at the registers
• Haley, Becky, & Karen — merchandising pros who keep the shelves stocked and inviting
• Michael & Jess G — jerky bar experts who know their flavors inside and out
• Rhonda, Tara, & Maria — baking up fresh, irresistible treats
• Charlotte — serving up fudge that could melt anyone’s resolve
• Kelly — keeping the coffee flowing for early-morning and road-weary guests

Every single one of them radiated the kind of hospitality that turns a simple store visit into a memory.

Food Highlights — and a Bakery Favorite
If you know us, you know we never leave Buc-ee’s without sampling something delicious. Brunswick delivered in spades — from smoky, tender BBQ to the addictive treats at the bakery. Karla fell head over heels for the blueberry scones — soft, buttery, and bursting with fruit. Add in fresh fudge, a perfectly brewed cup of coffee, and a jerky bar that could convert even the pickiest eater, and you’ve got a recipe for pure happiness.

Buc-ee’s: More Than a Pit Stop
As we told Arch that day, Buc-ee’s is more than just a road trip stop for us. It’s a taste of Texas — a reminder of home that we carry with us wherever we go. Every location we visit feels like a small reunion with the Lone Star State, and Brunswick was no exception.

We left that day with our arms full of goodies, our hearts full of joy, and our travel plans already pointing toward the next Buc-ee’s adventure — Mississippi, Virginia, and Amarillo are all on our radar.

Until then, Brunswick will hold a special place in our Buc-ee’s story — the day we met legends, made friends, and experienced Texas hospitality deep in the heart of Georgia.

Keep snackin'. Keep smilin'. Keep travelin'.

Snackin’ Through Leeds: Our Flavor-Filled Visit to Buc-ee’s in Alabama

Every Buc-ee’s visit is an experience, but our latest stop at the Leeds, Alabama location turned into a full-blown snack adventure. While Buc-ee’s is always known for its wide selection of travel treats and Texas-sized hospitality, this visit introduced us to a crunchy lineup we couldn’t resist—Buc-ee’s Potato Sticks in four bold flavors!

We snagged:

• Original – Classic, salty, and satisfyingly crispy. The baseline snack that delivers every time.
• Jalapeño – A spicy kick with just the right amount of heat. A must for fans of bold flavors.
• Cajun Boil – Packed with Southern spices, this one’s a flavor-packed journey to the bayou.
• Cheddar Sour Cream – Tangy, cheesy goodness that’s dangerously addictive.

These new snack sticks are the bomb—perfect for road trips, movie nights, or just munching while you reminisce about your last Buc-ee’s run.

Sadly, the Dill Pickle flavor was out of stock during our visit—clearly a popular choice—but we’ll be on the lookout next time. My wife especially loved the Cheddar Sour Cream flavor and gave a big thumbs up to the Wavy Chips in Cheddar Sour Cream as well. Looks like we’ll need a snack drawer just for Buc-ee’s treats soon!

While we came for the snacks, we stayed for the smiles. As always, the Leeds team was welcoming, the store was spotless, and the atmosphere was buzzing with travelers and Buc-ee’s fans from near and far. There’s something about this location—maybe it’s the Alabama charm or just the unmistakable Buc-ee’s magic—that makes every visit memorable.

We’ll definitely be back. And hopefully next time, that Dill Pickle flavor will be waiting for us.

Until next time—stay crunchy, my fellow buckaroos!

Buc-ee’s Bluegrass Run – Kentucky Adventure

Date of Visit: May 24–25, 2025 | Locations: Buc-ee’s – Calhoun, GA • Richmond, KY • Smiths Grove, KY

Our Memorial Day weekend road trip took us on an exciting Buc-ee’s run through Georgia and Kentucky, and let’s just say — the beaver did not disappoint!

We kicked things off with a familiar stop at the Calhoun, GA location for breakfast. It was great seeing some of our Buc-ee’s family again:

• Tracy greeted us with her signature warm smile,
• Becca from the bakery was just as friendly as ever, and
• Leah, our cashier, checked us out with a cheerful attitude.

We even ran into Windy, who remembered us from a previous visit — what a great way to start our trip! Breakfast was classic: a brisket taco, Texas Squeeze orange juice, and our must-have House Blend coffee.

Next stop: Richmond, KY. This was our first time at this location, and we were thrilled. The store is clean, well-organized, and full of energy. A big shoutout to Zach, our cashier, who made checkout a breeze. The staff here really embody the Buc-ee’s hospitality we’ve come to love.

Finally, we made it to Smiths Grove, KY — another gem in the Buc-ee’s crown.

• Pam, who was working merchandise and chips, was incredibly friendly and helpful.
• Colton, our cashier, rounded out the visit with great service.

Each stop reminded us just how consistent Buc-ee’s is in its commitment to clean restrooms, amazing food, and the friendliest people on the road. We left Kentucky full, happy, and already planning our return.

Up next: a return to Leeds in June, and the grand opening of the Brunswick, GA store on July 1, 2025. We’re especially looking forward to that one — we hope to meet Arch Aplin and Randy Pauly in person and have them sign our beloved copy of Texas Monthly. 

This journey has become more than just visits — it’s a celebration of the culture, care, and community that Buc-ee’s brings to every traveler’s day.

Until next time — keep on snackin’, buckaroos!

Rain or Shine, Leeds Always Delivers

Date of Visit: May 17, 2025 | Location: Buc-ee’s – Leeds, AL

Our sixth visit to the Buc-ee’s in Leeds, Alabama, might have come with a downpour, but nothing could dampen our Buc-ee’s spirit. Even in the middle of a spring storm, this location continues to be one of our favorite stops.

We started our morning with a brisket taco topped with salsa verde, a generous helping of Beaver tots, a Texas Squeeze orange juice, and, of course, the always-reliable House Blend Buc-ee’s coffee. Breakfast in Buc-ee’s is a ritual for us — and it's never boring.

Later in the day, we shared some fresh-cut watermelon — a simple but refreshing lunch that really hit the spot. The fruit selection at Leeds never disappoints! For dinner, we split a hearty 3 Meat BBQ sandwich, and rounded it out with a loaded baked potato salad and banana pudding. Karla opted for one of her personal favorites: the chicken salad croissant sandwich, light, creamy, and perfectly satisfying.

We also had a chance to try some new items and were blown away. The Cheddar Sour Cream Wavy Chips are dangerously good, and the Spicy Pickled Brussels Sprouts have a kick we didn’t expect but absolutely loved. For dessert, the Cookie Bites were crunchy, sweet perfection.

As always, the heart of the visit was the people.

• Monica, our breakfast cashier, greeted us warmly as soon as we walked in.
• Windy recognized us from previous visits and lit up with joy when she saw us — it truly made our day.
• Darren was working hard to keep the floors safe from the rain, never missing a beat.
• And Michele, one of the kindest people you’ll meet, gave us a big hug when she saw us again. That kind of warmth is what makes Buc-ee’s more than just a stop — it’s a home on the road.

We're already planning our next Leeds visit in June, and we can’t wait to see familiar faces and try more Buc-ee’s favorites. Rain or shine, this location always leaves us smiling.

A Buc-ee’s Kind of Day in Leeds, Alabama

On April 12th, Karla and I made our way back to one of our favorite places on the map — the Buc-ee’s in Leeds, Alabama — and let me tell you, it was another visit packed with friendly faces, delicious eats, and that unbeatable Buc-ee’s energy.

From the moment we stepped through those automatic doors, the Buc-ee’s team made us feel right at home. We had the absolute pleasure of catching up with Michele in Bookkeeping, who remembered us and welcomed us with the kind of enthusiasm that just warms your heart. We’re already looking forward to seeing her again on May 17th, our next planned visit! Sarah, also from Bookkeeping, chatted with us about the adorable Easter Buc-ee plushie, which we finally got our hands on this time around (and yes, we added the Dancin’ Buc-ee, a color-changing tumbler, and the 2025 Tour T-shirt to our haul — how could we not?).

Catherine, our cashier, was super friendly and efficient, and Misty, working over in salads and sandwiches, made sure everything was fresh and ready. A big thanks as well to Phil in Merchandising for being so helpful. And a special shoutout to Matthew, who shared some updates on the upcoming Brunswick, Georgia location. We are beyond excited for that opening — it’ll be our first grand opening visit, and we’re hoping to meet Arch "Beaver" Aplin III and Randy Pauly there. (If y’all are reading this, we’ll have our Texas Monthly issue in hand, ready for signatures!)

Of course, no visit to Buc-ee’s is complete without food. For breakfast, I went big with the Beast Burrito, washed it down with Texas Squeeze orange juice, and followed it up with a hot cup of House Blend Buc-ee’s coffee — strong, smooth, and full of flavor. I’d love to see a decaf version of the Buc-ee’s K-Cups in the future. It’d be perfect for winding down after a long drive. (You know I’d be first in line!)

Later, when I couldn’t decide on a BBQ meat... I didn’t. I went for the 3-Meat BBQ Sandwich and paired it with a bag of Buc-ee’s Kettle Cooked Jalapeño Chips — spicy, crunchy, and absolutely addictive. Karla opted for the fresh Cobb salad, which hit the spot and kept her coming back for more.

Now, I’d be lying if I said we didn’t leave with a tiny bit of regret. We completely forgot to grab my new favorite — the Loaded Potato Salad — and a large Banana Pudding Cup. You better believe we’ll be scooping those up on May 17th.

Every time we visit a Buc-ee’s, we’re reminded that it’s not just about gas or snacks — it’s about the people, the pride, and the spirit of the open road. Leeds, Alabama, showed us all of that and more.

So, if you see us in the store next time — bolo tie, cowboy hat, and Buc-ee’s gear in full force — don’t be shy! Come say howdy. And if you’re planning to be in Brunswick, GA for the grand opening, let’s make it a party.

Until then — keep snackin’, keep smilin’, and as always…
Stay mighty, Buc-a-roos.
— Jesse (SnackinBuckaroo)

A Warm Welcome at Buc-ee’s Leeds: Our Fourth Visit & Another Memorable Experience

Our Buc-ee’s adventures took us back to familiar territory this past weekend—the Buc-ee’s in Leeds, Alabama! On Sunday, March 16, 2025, Karla and I made our fourth visit to this location, and as always, Buc-ee’s delivered a fantastic experience. From the welcoming staff to the incredible food, Leeds once again proved why every stop at Buc-ee’s is more than just a visit—it’s an event!

A Buc-ee’s Breakfast Fit for a Buckaroo
We kicked off our morning with some Buc-ee’s breakfast favorites.

Karla went for something light and refreshing—fresh cantaloupe, the perfect start to the day. I, on the other hand, took a heartier approach with the Super Sausage Taco. It was packed with flavor, a great balance of eggs, sausage, cheese, and, of course, that signature Buc-ee’s quality.

Lunch with Buc-ee’s Signature Staples
By lunchtime, we were ready for another round of Buc-ee’s goodness. Karla went with one of her favorites, the Chicken Salad Sandwich, which never disappoints with its creamy texture and delicious flavor. I, of course, had to indulge in my go-to classic—the Sliced Brisket Sandwich. The smoky, tender brisket was exactly what I expected: absolute perfection. Paired with a side of Baked Potato Salad, it made for a lunch that hit all the right notes.

Standout Buc-ee’s Team Members
One of the things that makes Buc-ee’s special isn’t just the food or the size of the store—it’s the people. The Leeds team truly made us feel at home, and we want to give a special shoutout to a few standout employees:

• Chris (Bakery) – Incredibly friendly and helpful, making sure we had a top-notch experience in the bakery section.
• Catherine (Cashier) – So wonderful and welcoming that we went through her line three times that day!
• Darren – His dedication to keeping the store spotless was evident, ensuring that Leeds upheld the high Buc-ee’s standard we all know and love.

The Buc-ee’s Easter Plush: The One That Got Away
One of the main reasons we made the trip was to pick up the Buc-ee’s Easter Plush. Unfortunately, when we got there, they were completely sold out. Matthew, the general manager, went above and beyond to check the warehouse for us, but there were none left. While we were a little heartbroken to miss out, we truly appreciated the extra effort from Matthew and the team in trying to track one down.

Looking Ahead: The Grand Opening of Buc-ee’s Brunswick, GA

We’re already counting down the days to our next big Buc-ee’s event—the grand opening of Buc-ee’s Brunswick, GA later this year! From everything we’ve heard, the big day is set for August 2025, and we can’t wait to be there. We’re especially looking forward to the chance to meet Arch "Beaver" Aplin III and Randy Pauly in person to celebrate another incredible Buc-ee’s milestone.

Until Next Time, Buc-ee’s Leeds!
Our visit to Leeds was another reminder of why Buc-ee’s is the ultimate Traveler’s Oasis. From the incredible food to the outstanding customer service, it’s always worth the stop. If you find yourself near Leeds, be sure to drop by and say hello to the amazing team—and maybe grab a brisket sandwich while you’re at it!

Until our next Buc-ee’s adventure… happy travels and happy snacking!
