The food is best explained as "to the point," as you can easily forget the side dishes. You pay for the meat by the pound and receive complimentary bread and BBQ sauce. There is no need to bother with plates either. Just as surely as you receive suspicious looks in China when you ask for a fork and knife, such is the case at Rudy's when you ask for a plate. Your order is placed on a sheet of paper, stacked in a bread basket and given to you after you pay (no tips needed). Off you go, with your bread basket of food and a cup for drinks.
There are no hostesses to seat you, so find a seat. The tables seat about 75 each, so in busy times, be prepared to make friends with your neighbor. Each table has a few bottles of Rudy's BBQ Sauce and is a must have! Do not leave without trying it! Enjoy your food and the atmosphere.
If for some reason you are not full, ask the counter for more bread.
Astrid's favourite: 1/8 lb turkey, 1/8 lb lean brisket, corn on the cob, Rudy's Original BBQ Sauce mixed with Sissy Sauce, a few slices of bread and a Shiner Bock
