The much-anticipated grand opening took place on June 26, and the excitement was palpable. The crowds began to gather in Sevierville from midnight onwards, eager to witness the birth of this supersized wonder.

Now, let me paint you a picture of what awaits you at this gargantuan establishment. Picture this: you’re fueling up your vehicle, and right before your eyes, you spot fresh fudge, barbecue sandwiches, and even bathing suits.
Yes, this gas station has more than you can imagine! And the best part? It’s open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, ready to cater to your every craving and whim.
The iconic Buc-ee’s beaver mascot will guide you to this massive oasis just outside the Great Smoky Mountains. This legendary chain originated in the great state of Texas back in 1982, and it has since conquered the hearts of travelers across the South. And now, it’s Tennessee’s turn to bask in the glory of Buc-ee’s.
What sets Buc-ee’s apart from the rest is their unwavering commitment to quality. The new store boasts their signature slow-smoked brisket sandwiches and a myriad of other barbecue delights, all freshly prepared on-site.
Randy Pauly, the director of barbecue operations, proudly told TODAY, “We slow-smoke it, we season it, and we get it out to the store and slice it up fresh right in front.” Now that’s dedication to deliciousness!
But it’s not just the food that makes Buc-ee’s a cut above the rest. A recent survey by Payless Power revealed that customers spent an average of 20 minutes and $69.95 per visit at their favorite gas station.
And what keeps them coming back for more? Cleanliness, affordable prices, top-notch food quality, and exceptional customer service.
Buc-ee’s checks every box, clinching the number one spot for customer service in the survey and even earning the coveted Forbes’ Customer Experience All-Star title earlier this year.
Now, here’s a tidbit that will leave you buzzing with anticipation: while this Tennessee location is the current record holder, it won’t hold the crown for long.
Buc-ee’s is already hard at work constructing a massive 75,000-square-foot gas station in Luling, Texas, the land where everything is indeed bigger. So, buckle up, Tennessee, because bigger and better things are on the horizon!
Get ready to indulge in a gas station experience like no other. Whether you’re filling up your tank or looking for a delectable feast, this mammoth Buc-ee’s gas station has got you covered. So, make your way to Sevierville and let the world’s largest gas station take you on a truly unforgettable journey!
