Editorial Review for Rudy's Country Store & Bar-B-Q – by Susan Kirr

In Short
This looks and feels like a rural barbecue joint, from the rustic siding and red cinderblock walls to the exposed ducts. A long tin chest holds bottles of beer and soft drinks immersed in sparkling ice. Order at the counter, then retreat to picnic tables either indoors or outside. Large groups can really spread out. Meat's the thing here, and everything--brisket, turkey, pork ribs and jalapeño sausage--has a genuine smoky flavor all by itself.

The Extras

The country store, really a convenience store, opens at 6:30am and stays open until the restaurant closes. The place to get your candy, drinks, snacks and cigarettes.

When to Go

Rudy's also sells breakfast tacos until noon, complete with a fresh salsa bar.

2 Star Rating: Below Average

Assembly line approach, and the order takers and meat prep staff need supervision. They don't appear to have any quality goals at all. Average BBQ, a elementary school cafeteria dining experience.

Pros: If you Need Gas just Happen to Get Hungry at the Same Time. . .

Cons: No service and elementary school cafateria experience

Love this place... especially the meats. The sides are good, too. The creamed corn is naughty but so good. Busters has better slaw in my opinion. Love the rookie show they put on, love the beer in the tubs, etc.

Pros: BBQ

Cons: none
