After hearing a lot chatter regarding this bar b q / gas station combo, it was time to try the closest Rudy's to town.
Bypassing the gas station, I stepped right into a surprisingly spotless bar b q joint and read my options off the giant wall menu. Are you for real with these prices?
I ended up with a half order of sausage and another half order of jalapeno sausage, potato salad, peach cobbler and a beer all for about $10. WOWZA.
It may be their attempt at being green or perhaps they hate doing dishes, but my entire meal was handed to me at the counter slopped on to wax paper and I liked it. Its bar b q, baby, and Rudy's wants to get dirty!
After I stopped by the "fix ins counter" complete with sliced pickles, I sat down at the wood benches to taste my order. This was no Goode Co, but I was pleased with my meal.
I have to say the regular sausage surprisingly beat out the jalapeno sausage - somehow it was just much juicer. Potato salad was par for course but was a great accompaniment to the entree. I will say that the cobbler was a disappointment (just boring and slightly bitter) as I quickly passed it off to my less picky friends.
Rudy's also offers two signature sauces at every table (a spicy and non spicy version). I enjoyed the sauce, but generally prefer a less tangy flavor.
Would I ever put Rudy's on my "on the regular" list? No.
BUT - it's a great road trip stop through. Quick, cheap, easy and tasty.
A solid 3 / 5.
