Salt Lick BBQ

I've been here many times and it's special every time.  I've yet to find a reason to do anything but the all you can eat option.  I mean...why would you limit yourself like that?

The all you can eat (or as I call it, the "Bring it"), offers you brisket, ribs, sausage, German potato salad, cole slaw, beans, bread, pickles and onions.

The complete meal is quite filling and well balanced and a good offering of the typical south Texas barbecue experience.

 

But when you get to just the meat, it's quite amazing and unequaled by most attempts. 

It is well smoked, well cooked, well dressed and well served.  Also...don't miss the deserts.  The cobblers are amazing.

Enjoy!

Rudy's BBQ

While in San Antonio recently, I took it upon myself to try a different Rudy's locations.  The one in Selma. 

While Rudy's is very good about being consistent with all of it's locations, timing is everything.  I've always found it to be difficult to serve high quality barbecue all throughout the day.  This may be one reason why the traditional time is lunch.

I had my usual selection here of ribs, brisket and sausage with a side of beans.

While it was definitely Rudy's...and good...I've had better. I'll bet it had more to do with the fact that it was after 8pm and they were closing soon.   So I don't really fault them for that.

So stop by there anytime, but if you want the true blue Rudy's experience, get a plate load of cue at lunch.  You'll be glad you did.
