I've never been to a Buc-ee's, but my family and friends have ranted and raved about the jumbo beaver-inspired travel centers for several years. With that being said, I immediately made a strong correlation between Buc-ee's and The Texan. After a long swim in the hotel pool, my daughters and I reviewed the dinner offerings in the sleepy town. I suggested we just go check out The Texan and at least restock on fluids and snacks for our upcoming beach trip. As soon as we walked in, we all gravitated to the grab-n-go section. Cold items included salads, sandwiches, fruit and veggie cups, boiled eggs, pies, and other desserts. Then we drifted towards the hot items: pizza, tacos, burgers, and other plates, but I was curious about the BBQ sliced brisket sandwich ($9.99). It was so good! Not soggy. Loads of brisket! They also had donuts, kolaches, and muffins in another display. Here's the rest of our supper menu: + sweet tea drinks (medium) = $1.69 + sweet tea (large) = $1.79 + Nutty Bavarian dessert in a cup = $4.49 + 3-piece cake balls cup = $6.99 + grilled chicken sandwich = $8.99 + 5-pc jalapeno poppers = $5.99 + a large meat lover's pizza slice = $3.99 + pecans Great service. Restrooms, a beer cave, wine selections, souvenirs, indoor dining area, and gas/diesel pumps also available. Big rigs have their own area. The only bummer was they sold out of these really cool dog stickers with the Texas flag.

The food options were plentiful but the chopped beef sandwich and fries that I got were a bit disappointing; the fries were once crispy some hours ago but became a soggy lump of sadness once trapped in its plastic container in a hot box. The buns in the sandwich were also smushed/soggy beyond repair with moisture and residual pickle juice; the disadvantages of lower food turnover definitely affects the freshness of the product a bit. They still have a good selection of chips, drinks, and merch so it's a step above the usual run of the mill stop.

Or not but whoever she is, she's wonderful. We got ice cream, fudge, and truffles! All so good my pregnant heart was content. She was so gracious with samples and understood that sometimes when you're pregnant you think you want something and then it's awful. She even wanted to ensure that I sampled some of the fudged before committing. So kind! And not to mention she read the ingredients of the fudges and truffles to me so I could ensure I wouldn't get any I was allergic to. Extra mile points. The ice cream is Bluebell and the variety of flavors they have are GREAT! You can simply check the Bluebell site for which ones are gluten free which I did. We're heading back over from Port A, yes that's how great the service is in comparison to places on the island, to come here again.

This cannot be beat. Get the American cheddar (and extra if you love cheese). Get extra red sauce (jalapeno salsa or something). I like my cheesesteak with mushrooms and jalapeños. This is definitely big enough to share unless you have a beast for a husband. Get 2 and put 1/2 in fridge for tomorrow. It gets a tad soggy, but it's almost even better the next day. The bread here is amazing. The staff is super rad. The location and vibe is spot on. Do not miss this secret spot.

Once the food arrived, I understood why. The entire sandwich was MAYBE 3 inches long and they only filled it w enough chicken salad to fit the bread. And these were nearly $10 sandwiches! I wish I'd gotten a picture but was so shocked they would present this to us as an acceptable portion I immediately went back and requested additional side of chicken salad that equated to the normal portion. I could never have consciously served someone that size food for what they paid. On the other hand, the food was good and the creamy jalapeño soup was TO DIE FOR! Just hope they can figure out a solution to the portions. Especially if you're going to charge extra for GF bread.
