People in Alabama have a serious jones for Buc-ee’s, the Texas-based chain known for its giant, colorful, chock-full-of-goodies travel centers. Four Buc-ee’s locations can be found throughout the state, from Athens to Robertsdale, and we wouldn’t be at all surprised if more were to follow.

A visit to Buc-ee’s is a super-sized experience, and a huge part of that pertains to food. We’re talking about breakfast food, lunch food, dinner food, snack food, junk food, late-night-I’ve-got-the-munchies food and more. Every Buc-ee’s location offers an abundance of things to eat, from the ultra-sweet to the absolutely savory.
