| - OK, so hear it goes. Rudy's is new in the West Valley (I-10 & Litchfield Rd.) I have had friends tell me about it so I wanted to try it. The place was pretty packed, it was a short wait in a good sized line to get to the food counter. Once there they will ask you if you have been there before. If not, they will offer you tastings of the meats and explain the serving to you. There may be several new comers so you will have to deal will people who want to try everything because they don't know what they want. That is irritating but expected. As it was our first time at Rudy's we wanted to try several items. We ordered Cutter's Brisket, Turkey, regular Sausage, Rudy's pinto beans, green chili, potato salad, coleslaw & a micro brew bottle beer. They have plenty of beer and beverage choices. Everything was good but the stand out for me was the Turkey. Get the Turkey! it had excellent flavor and smokiness while remaining moist and tender. The brisket was dry and not as flavorful. The beans were good but not great. I like great beans. the Coleslaw was very good. The potato salad was my least favorite. The sausage was huge and it had great flavor. They offer their brand of BBQ sauce in Sissy or Original (a bit more spicy). I compare this place to Texas BBQ House, where the brisket is much more flavorful and moist. They do not offer Turkey however. I also like the flavor and consistency of Texas BBQ House's BBQ sauce much better. Rudy's was good, not a negative experience, I just had higher hopes for a full flavor of brisket I get elsewhere. I prefer Texas BBQ House over Rudy's. Give Rudy's a try and see what you think.
