Rudy’s “Country Store” and Bar-B-Q was placed in operation in 1989. It was a store first them, became a food place. Barbecue lovers this is the place for you to enjoy one of the best BBQ places in Tyler. Inside it’s very country looking and inviting. Menu is amazing, all kinds of brisket, turkey breast, pork loin, chopped beef. Pork spare ribs and everybody loves some Baby back ribs, half chicken, regular chicken, jalapeno sausages and this is just the meat, so far. Hungry yet….OK I will keep going…potato salad, pinto beans, green bean salad, cream corn, new potatoes, corn on the cob, green chili stew and jumbo smokes potato.

Never leave out the desserts….banana pudding, pecan pie, chocolate pudding, butter milk pie, ice cream, peach cobbler and rice crispy treats. This is making me hungry all over again. I had a loaded baked potato with cheese, sour cream and pulled pork on top of it. Yes, it was delicious. Outside the store they also have gas station available just in case you are running low or want to fill up while you are there. They sell soft drinks and beer to go with your meal, depending on what you prefer.

After your meal, they have some stuff you can purchase in their store. The store is located on 1410 SSW Loop 323, Tyler, Texas. Some of the other locations are in Waco, Frisco and Houston, Texas just to name a few. They have many other locations which you could easily find on their website. They carry gift cards in their store. It is a great place to go and eat a good lunch and it’s very close to our Hollywood theater. Once you are done eating you could drop in and watch the movie you were looking for.

Rudy’s place burned a few years ago and it took them quite a while to build the kitchen area back to be even better than it was in the beginning. They made a bigger dining area and redid the kitchen to accommodate an even bigger crowd. More people go there than before the fire, it is worth the visit.
