Loaded pork/ Chicken Tater
Cindy C.

Normally their loaded baked potatoes are full of meat and much larger. This one had only two bites of meat on the potato. Today I ordered two loaded baked potatoes and two medium bruinswick stews, paid over 32 dollars. The food was good, just the portion was heavily cut back giving you a third but charging you the same price. The stew is mostly liquid. I always looked forward to going here when I visited family. I doubt I will be back anytime soon.

Southwestern Saints Burger - grilled onions, peppers, pepper jack cheese, bacon, Cujo sauce, 9oz. Fresh made patty, kaiser roll

This is our favorite Bbq in the area. They are a small shop at the corner of Odenville but do a great job on Good Food!

Good barbecue and decent sides. I would prefer if they had more vegetable sides that are not fried as options.

I sat at a booth in the bigger seating area. They also have table & outdoor seating available. This is definitely a casual environment. Rusty's has many menu items to pick from but the ribs are my favorite! I love their spicy bbq sauce so much. I highly recommend paying them a visit if you get the chance. Highlights - Easy parking drive thru is available Easy to find in Leeds, Al

We are constantly searching for a rather out-of-the-way barbecue joints that are local, small,…read moreindependent...and star-worthy...Of those aspects, Rusty's is definitely independent, small, and local. Unfortunately, food falls far short of the stars I had hoped to find here. While service was friendly and quick, the food that was delivered simply did not score well. Chicken and Brisket were our choices and they both lacked depth of flavor. Most importantly - both were quite dry. (Chicken skin was moist and crisp, but meat was not. We all know chicken dries out pretty quickly.) I was especially disappointed by the brisket. (Good brisket is one of my frequent nation-wide food quests.) The brisket shown in my photos should be moist and tender, with a slight glisten on the surface and a bit more color on the edges. But, you can see how dry my serving was - (FYI no altering of the photo on my part.) : -( Sides received mixed reviews from us. Star of the whole show were the collards - savory and served piping hot. Okra had a nice light coating and not greasy at all - but they were not very warm (temperature). Potato salad was pretty plain. Marinated coleslaw got one thumbs up and one down from us. It reminded me very much of old-fashioned vinegar chowchow minus the other veggies; biggest downside to it was the size and inconsistency of the shreds...just too clunky. Spicy jalapeño mini muffins....excellent. Plain white bread? (no butter or spread?) Wish I had ordered the baked beans (2 kinds). And a last note - sauces were thin and simply not memorable, lacking true character. Locals....please keep coming here...I'm sure there are combos we did not try that are pleasing. But as for us, we need to keep travelin' on.

It's located in a small strip mall so parking can be tricky but it's worth it! Lol! The dining room gives that small town feel, and I'm here for it!! You can sit, for the most part, where you want, in their small dining area or in a booth in an attached area. The service has never been bad. We've rated here a number of times with my in-loves, who live in the area, and frequently eat here. All of their food is fresh and cooked to order. I've eat several things but let's talk about the double cheeseburger and homemade fries! The burger is so big that you can't get it in your mouth! It's so juicy, too! And the fries... my gracious! So! Good! It's all responsibly priced for home cooked food. So go and give them a try!! You won't be disappointed! Oh!! They also do large orders for pick up. We've had thanksgiving, Christmas and birthday meals from here. Again, you won't be disappointed! Peace out

The ribs are exceptionally good, and I've always been happy with the sides (although I'm admittedly not that adventurous and usually get the mac-and-chese and turnip greens).
