Falling off the bone ribs & Baked Sweet Potato = TRH

Good Cream Corn & smoked turkey = Rudys

I like the brisket at Old Smokehouse off of Fredericksburg/410. The creamed corn at Rudy's is good too!

Best ribs? My backyard! (Now I'm getting hungry too!)
None of the above.

Texas Pride
Tx pride is sub par just a great atmosphere and awesome peach cobbler!

Blacks BBQ in Lockhart hands down better than anything San Antonio can offer!

I've heard about Blacks BBQ, but never had time to stop and taste
Always wanted to try Louis Mueller BBQ in Taylor but I have never been through there may have to make a special trip one of these days they are supposed to be one of the best.

As for San Antonio my favorites are Snoga's BBQ over on Goliad rd they have some of the best brisket and country sausage in town IMO. The also do a Turkey and dressing dinner on Sundays that is the best (aside from my mom's that is).

I also like texas pride as well I have never really cared for Rudy's and if I want just a quick brisket fix Bill Miller's BBQ always fits the bill. Also love their fried chicken but since this is a bbq thread we won't get into that.

I can't remember the name. But on the east side was a BBQ joint and the sauce was poured out of a coffee pot. Anyone remember?

If it was between the two, TRH or Rudy's, I have to go with Rudy's every time. Personally, I am a big Salt Lick fan.

I've been to TRH one time, ten years or so ago.

I only go to Rudy's when out of towners visit and they just have to have creamed corn.

Whenever possible, I do my best to break that habit by taking them to the Smokehouse at Roland and Rigsby or the Rusty Bucket off of 90 and McMullen, I think.

Far superior BBQ to either Rudy's or TRH in San Antonio.

As I have only tried Stubbs in Austin (to this day I use their spinach, cheese and egg dish), I can't logically comment on their other BBQ joints.

I have been to Kruez in Lockhart twice in the past twenty yr tour of S.A. and that is damn good BBQ.

For the others that were mentioned in SA, try Rusty Bucket and Smokehouse at Roland and Rigsby. You may reassess your viewpoint on good BBQ.
