It’s a slow news day. Other than crime, lay-offs and budget, there isn’t much to report. Rather than write another post covering those topics, I thought I’d walk toward mommy blogism and discuss food … well, QuikTrip food.
While there is, and will probably always be, an OKC/Tulsa rivalry, there is one area where Tulsa wins. We have QT.
Since I have nothing better to discuss today, here are some of the best QuikTrip food that you don’t have access to:
10. Brownie
An brownie so rich, you have to eat it in two settings.
9. Pepper Jack Cheese Taquito
Hot and spicy.
8. Grilled Chicken Salad
Hunks of mesquite grilled chicken, cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, cheddar cheese, swiss cheese and shredded carrots.
7. Chicken Salad Wrap
Chicken salad, chopped celery, large juicy slices of tomato and fresh romaine lettuce wrapped inside a tasty flatbread.
6. Peanut Butter Filled Bismark
A doughnut, dipped in chocolate, covered with peanuts, wrapped around a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup flavored filling.
5. Chicken, Bacon & Cheese Biscuit
A chicken, bacon and cheese biscuit that easily beats that odd-pickle-flavored sandwich that McDonald’s carries.
4. Turkey Club
Packed with with Turkey, Ham, Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato and Mayo on a soft Whole Wheat Berry Bread.
3. Cheese-Filled Polish Sausage
Melted cheese inside a hot dog. Mustard, onion and relish are not needed.
2. Chocolate Chip Cookie
Freshly baked. Delivered Daily. Soft. Chewy. Chocolatey.
1. Cool Refreshing Beverages
Each fountain drink is set at 34 degrees. The ice doesn’t melt as quickly and this cuts down on the fizzing. With 24 different fountain drinks and your choice of cubed or crushed ice, there are thousands of beverage possibilities. Can 7 Eleven compare? Never.

Surely The Lost Ogle can get me a QuickTrip in OKC… PLEEEAAASSEEE… (not above begging).
While I would love to always root for OKC in this rivalry, I agree that this is the one area that will always go to Tulsa. I love QuikTrips! In fact, anytime I am even near the Tulsa area a stop must be made. Couldn’t agree more with your number one choice. Not to mention the amazing Smoothie and Freezoni products, mixing the White Cherry Freezoni with the Black Cherry Smoothie is a personal favorite.
so true. I go to Tulsa frequently and they do have some good food to snack on. I guess our answer down here are the OnCue express stations you see all over. Someone could argue its the 7-11s however I have been in most of them in the metro area and can’t compare to OnCue
Please admit the ONLY reason you wrote this article was to justify buying (then eating, I mean, why not?) all that disgusting-looking gas station food.
The Apple Fritters ROCK!!!!!!
Chicken Taquito with that hot sauce they have at the counter. Dad’s Root Beer at the fountain. OKC has the Thunder. Tulsa has Quik Trip. Love the Thunder but…
Seriously, all Tulsa has on OKC is QT. But that’s significant. They’re clean, spacious and clerks who don’t look or act like convenience store clerks.
Screw the gentleman’s agreement between QT and 7-11 not to encroach on each other’s markets. Come to OKC. Please. Rescue us.
No wonder QT is consistently listed as one of the best places to work in the U.S. If you get an employee discount on all this artery clogging stuff, who wouldn’t want to work there?
Actually there is a story behind no QT’s in OKC. My brother in law who shall remain nameless has worked for QT since he was 17, he started in his small hometown in Missouri and transferred here when he and my sister were married. He’s been there almost 15 years now and loves the company. Anyway the story is that Chester the owner or CEO or whatever of QT made some kind of deal back in the early days with someone who’s in the same line of business in OKC that he would not invade that market. Now whether or not this is true this is the story I have always heard. Will you ever see QT in OKC I doubt it. However there are certain things to be said about not being saturated with QT’s here in Tulsa where we are saturated it’s hard to find a nice conv store that offers quality items since QT pretty much rules the market. However in OKC the fact that there is no “Monopoly” if you will means the stores have a little better selection and Slushies and ICEE’s which you can no longer find easily here in Tulsa. Anyway there is my two cents.
Wait. How is this place different from On Cue?
I don’t want to say this in the wrong way but, I’ll take OKC over a gas station with crap food any day. Are you trying to say that T-town has better quality crap food than OKC. I know people have to look for the bright spot’s where they can…….. that isn’t even a 5 Watt bulb (dim).
I grew up in Tulsa and moved to OKC in 2001 … while I do like OKC, the QT’s in the Tulsa area are a beacon of tranquility in a sea of oddball convenience stores. I do miss them. They are in Des Moines, Dallas, and points beyond. But, we are stuck in OKC with lesser posers. Pity. We do deserve the upgrade and their entrance into the OKC market would be welcome … and would mark the closing of many a store with dirty floors, jacked up prices, broken gas pumps, and the doobie toking clerk that is there for the munchies.
Sucky thing about QT is no paraphnalia. In T-town for the Eric Clapton concert, wanted to twist one up for the show and discover my Zig Zag package empty. went to the local QT and the nice young lady sadly informed me not allowed to carry such products. Sold me a blunt and gave the how to hood insrtructions. Nice girl, didn’t work so well though. Most fell out in my pocket. Guess no one lights up in BOK anyway. Got another thing coming if they don’t think Widespread Panic fans are going to toke up. The Brady show a big blow out, like the old days.
Why are all 7-11s grimy? Clerks always very friendly, but jeez, hire someone to swab the deck occasioally. Actually 7-11s don’t sell paraphnalia either come to think. Must be another evil pact.
QT is awesome. Anytime I’m up that way I have to stop there. But I have one question about On Cue……why are they all in “questionable” parts of town? I like On Cue, but there aren’t any I know of in the suburban areas.
You have to eat the brownie in two settings? Like what, “on a picnic” and “at the movie theater?”
15 comments before someone pointed out ‘settings’?
OKC, we’ll trade you a QT store for a Dunkin’ Donuts.
Consider it a done deal.
