Pick of the Week - Rudy's BBQ & Country Store

Cactus_Rudys

Just off the service road north of Sunrise Mall in Brownsville (off Nolana & 281 in Pharr) you will find one of the best BBQ establishments in the Rio Grande Valley. I grew up in the south and have had my share of BBQ and can say you will not be disappointed with the food there. The Brisket is my favorite and the sandwich is great if you want a meal on a bun. Sides can be any number of items that are offered. Unlike some places you can mix and match meat or sides. Have a 1/4 pound of pork or beef or whatever you like. Even order by a slice! I had the baby back ribs and they are fall off the bone tender and you can add to that the regular BBQ sauce (you can have the sissy BBQ stuff if you are the timid type). The corn is great, cream style or on the cob and top it off with a bottled Coke. Enough to make any country folk smile cheek to cheek.

Cactus Willie's pick for Rudy's
1. Baby Back Ribs or Brisket Sandwich (a toss up there) 2. Creamed Corn 3.
Bottle of Coke
