Buc-ee's just opened its first Va. location. It is truly a behemoth.
MOUNT CRAWFORD, VIRGINIA — Want to microdose Texas this summer? Start in the roasting asphalt parking lot at Buc-ee's. Wipe the sweat from your brow as you shovel down a bun stuffed with 13-hour-smoked and barbecued brisket, and sip the Styrofoam cup of cream soda on the hood of your car. Lock eyes with the red-capped, bucktoothed beaver, whose cartoon face appears on gas pump awnings, towering highway signs and just about everywhere else at the 74,000-square-foot country store.
