Buck Strickland, Owner, Founder, and Operator
Buck is the boss of Strickland Propane and is historically known for his modest start in the business and general business smarts. These attributes have been worn away by life and been replaced with many habits which often come in the way of his business decisions.

Even with all of his shortcomings, Buck Strickland is known to come around when times get hard and make things right for himself and the people around him.

In addition to Strickland Propane, Buck also owns Sugarfoot’s BBQ and many other businesses.

Hank Hill, Assistant Manager
Aside from being the main star of the hit show King of the Hill, Hank is also the husband to his wife Peggy and father to his son Bobby. He is often regarded as a well-meaning, hard-working, traditional American. The Economist briefly mentioned him as one of the wisest people on television.

Hank was born Henry Ruthford Hill in the female restroom at the Yankee Stadium in New York, NY. His parents are Cotton Hill and Matilda Mae “Tillie.” After graduating from Tom Landry Middle School, Hank earned his high school diploma from Arlen High. After being denied from the Army, Hank worked a couple of other jobs, one of them being an employee at Arlen’s Jeans West, which is where he sold a pair of Jordache to his now employer Buck Strickland.

Joe Jack, Grill Associate
Joe Jack (born June 29, 1958) is a grill associate at Strickland Propane. He often calls his co-workers “honey” regardless of their gender. He is one of Hank’s friends and co-workers. Joe Jack is an alcoholic but rarely gets drunk. He is very overweight, which may or may not be caused by his alcoholism. His voice bears a striking similarity to Orville “Hoppy” Jones of the Ink Spots, including his use of “honey,” which was a common theme in the spoken word portions of the Ink Spots songs.

Joe was also briefly a player on Hank Hill’s softball team until an unspecified incident at Taco Bueno.

Enrique, Truck Driver
When Enrique first comes to work at Strickland Propane, he is a soft-spoken truck driver who is assumed to be supporting his family back home. However, over the years, he develops into an annoying, smoking loud-mouth who bares a shockingly close personality with Hank Hill and sounds like Danny Trejo. To further this creepy conspiracy, “Enrique” is Spanish for “Henry,” which is Hank’s birth name.

Donna Ad, Accountant
This is Donna. She is almost always dressed in purple and sounds a lot like Pamela Adlon.

She has a rocky history at Strickland Propane having been promoted to Assistant Manager before being fired for causing a flash mob at the business, causing her boss Buck Strickland to be assaulted by a group of her online friends. After vowing “Death to Strickland,” she was given her accountant position back from Buck.

Maria Montalvo, Accessories Associate
Maria is overqualified for her job despite what Hank Hill may say of her. She has extensive knowledge and experience in both the propane and charcoal industries. However, Hank denied her a job at Strickland Propane because she didn’t know who the quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys was at the time. Nonetheless, Maria eventually ended up getting the job against Hank’s wishes.

Roger “Booda Sack,“ Employee
Before working at Strickland Propane, Roger was a comedian who taught defensive driving with a Chris Rock persona. His jokes are often crude, causing Hank Hill to personally not like him. One of Roger’s favorites jokes are the “Yo Mama” series. (They’re not even that good anyway.)

Melinda Grab, Employee
Melinda’s most significant contribution to Strickland Propane is her posts to Strickland Propane’s MySpace page in an attempt to make the business more popular.

Not much is known about her except that she spends most of her time maintaining her six-pack of abs.

Jason Adderly, Employee
Not much is known about this man other than he is the father of Howard Adderly, a bizarre worm-child.
