If Father’s Day calls for no-frills, smoky, saucy, stick-to-your-ribs barbecue, Rudy’s "Country Store" and Bar-B-Q at 2400 N Interstate Hwy 35 in Round Rock is your go-to spot. Known for moist brisket, spicy chopped beef, and jalapeño cheddar sausage, Rudy’s pairs these meats with sides like their famously creamy creamed corn—a true Texas staple that never disappoints. This is classic Hill Country BBQ done right, in a relaxed, welcoming environment where Dad can savor every bite without any fuss (and absolutely no ties required).

A Texas Tradition with Heart

Founded in Leon Springs, Texas, by Max Aue and expanded by his son Rudolph, Rudy’s started as a small gas station and grocery store before adding barbecue in 1989. The same original recipes that built Rudy’s reputation in the Hill Country now fuel locations throughout the Southwest. What sets Rudy’s apart is their 100% wood-fired pits using slow-burning oak wood, which imparts deep, rich flavors that keep barbecue lovers coming back. Their signature dry spice rub and famous “Sause” finish off each plate perfectly.

Must-Try Dishes

The brisket is tender and smoky with just the right crust, while the spicy chopped beef offers a juicy, bold kick. Don’t miss the jalapeño cheddar sausage, bursting with flavor and spice. Complement your meal with classic sides like creamy creamed corn and hearty beans for a satisfying feast that’ll have Dad grinning from ear to ear.
