January 11, 2015 - Rudy's Country Store & Bar-B-Que - New Braunfels, Texas

Jo Martin has been holding out on us.  I drove to New Braunfels today with Bonnie and Darryl Patrick.  We stopped for a quick bite at Rudy's.

Bonnie ordered the Chopped eef Sandwich.  Darryl ordered theTurkey Sandwich.    I ordered the Baby Back Ribs and used the Original BBQA Sause.

Rudy’s  describe their sauce as “the perfect blend of heat and  sweet with a hint of the secret ingredient that turns ordinary barbecue sauce into Rudy’s unforgettable and world famous ‘Sause.’

We also choose the cole slaw and creamed corn to accompany the great tasting Texas BBQ…pecan pralines for dessert.  The cream corn was like no other I have ever tasted.  I have included the recipe belowfor your use.

I have included a picture of my Baby Back Ribs.  Please notice the brown paper about the size of a placemat…that’s our plate.



I loved the inside of the restaurant…looked like an old time Texas Honky Honk complete with all the old beer signs…memorabilia…my favorite:  “George Strait Tickets Tonight $3.00”  Plus an added bonus:  the Green Bay Packer vs. Dallas Cowboy football game on all of the big screen TVs hanging  on the walls.  Anybody want to Two Step?



Rudy's Country Store and Bar-B-Q Creamed Corn
1 pint heavy cream
4 ounces cream cheese
16 ounces frozen corn kernels
2 to 3 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
fresh cracked black pepper if desired

In a medium pot over medium heat combine heavy cream and 4 ounces of cream cheese. Stir until well blended, and and the sauce is smooth and creamy. Add corn kernels, and stir them in. Heat until the corn is warmed through. Add salt and sugar. Serve with some fresh cracked black pepper if desired.
 History:  In the thick of the Texas Hill Country, Rudolph (Rudy) Aue opened his first country store, a convenient palce for locals to buy gas and groceries and to swap stories.  The store added Texas BBQ to its good and services in 1989 and Rudy’s Country Store and Bar-B-Q was born.
Why is Jo holding out on us?  Because her nephew and niece, Brad and Kim live in New Braunfels. You just know that she has eaten a lot of Texas BBQ at Rudy's over the years.  I am calling her right now.
