Fueling up at gas stations now has more than one meaning. Before Buc-ee's went viral, we've all passed judgment on people braving roller-grill hot dogs and so-called "nachos."
Buc-ee's has become a household name well beyond the South, where its sprawling locations have turned roadside pit stops into destinations unto themselves. The Midwest has its own gas station foodie favorite — and there are so many locations that you don't even have to be on a road trip to find one.
Casey's General Store (more commonly known simply as Casey's) has even earned celebrity backing for its beloved pizza, a fan-favorite alternative to Domino's and other major chains.
The Midwest staple is expanding with 400 new stores over the next 3 years after CEO Darren Rebelez revealed the company is coming off its "best three-year cycle."

Unlike if Shell suddenly started dishing out pizzas, Casey's already has a legitimate following, including some familiar names who rave about having to grab a slice when they go back home.
Celebrity chef Andrew Zimmernonce declared, "I love gas station food and have tasted three lifetimes' worth throughout my travels, and Casey's pizza rises to the top." He's not alone, either. Queer Eye star Jonathan Van Ness has called Casey's pizza "the best gas station pizza" and shamelessly admitted they "can't stop thinking about Casey's pizza" after returning to Iowa.
Casey's even reached the White House. Former Vice President Mike Pence was spotted grabbing a slice at Casey's while on the campaign trail, underscoring just how ingrained the chain has become in Midwestern culture, and not just for lunch or dinner. In fact, actress Mila Kunis once raved on Reddit, "they do a delicious breakfast pizza!"

No matter if you're in little-known Potosi, Missouri or major cities like Des Moines, Casey's is expanding far and wide, including new markets. Better yet, they're branching out beyond pizza. Hundreds of stores now serve boneless and bone-in wings and fries.
"We're famous for our pizza, we still have a long runway for growth there with innovation and new items that we've introduced more recently," Rebelez said. "But now we have the wings platform."
