It is not possible to find better BBQ than Rustlers. This is the hill I'm willing to die upon…read more Had a platter of pretty much every smoked meat there was in the place, plus two sides. Brisket Pulled Pork Smoked Turkey Pork Ribs Hot Links and finally... Smoked Baloney. Potato Salad, White Mac and Cheese, Texas Toast, Pickle and Onion. Everything was smoked perfectly - even the baloney, which surprised both of us eating there - and absolutely tender. The meats aren't dripping in sauce which is often used to moisten a bad cook or to disguise poor flavors. Nope. If you want a saucy meal, it's a "self-inflicted wound" in my books, because you're missing out on some great well cooked meat. We didn't go there for side options, so reviewing them isn't the point. I did not see either a Corn Bread or a Biscuit choice which I would have chosen, but took the usual's just to see how they're done at Rustlers. I'm not a banana for dessert fan, that is, until my dinner guest forced me to have some of Rustlers Banana Pudding. I am now a rabid fan of banana's for dessert. Yes, it's that good. Don't keep whistling down the highway at 80+MPH trying to get somewhere faster than you should. Slow down, stop in, and get some well made BBQ. Sure, you're going to have the "meat sweats" once you've had your fill, but it's all well worth it in the end.

So, it is NOT WISE to alienate customers that have frequented your restaurant for the last 5 years! Literally, from the day you opened! :( Welp ... here we are again ordering (to go) from what was my favorite BBQ place in my hometown and I'm sad to say ...I'm so disappointed I won't be going back absent of an apology!! :( I ordered 1/2 lb. of moist brisket & a baked potato. I ate the brisket and enjoyed it ... and then I cut into the potato to find a sweet potato. (I don't eat them because I just don't like 'em). So, I called the restaurant to let them know that I ordered a baked potato and was given a sweet potato. She looked up the order and said, "You ordered a baked sweet potato" ... to which I responded, "I don't know why I would order a sweet potato because I don't eat them". That was the point she said, "If you will bring back the sweet potato back to us... we will exchange it for a baked potato". LOL! So, I giggled and asked ... you want your potato back? To which she replied, "Yes!" So, while I was asking my husband if he felt like taking the sweet potato back to the restaurant ... this lady hung up the phone on me! FOR WHAT?? She didn't even wait to find out if we were going to make the exchange. Now, I can concede that I may have made a mistake ordering ... I don't think I did... but, it certainly is possible. However, I've been going to this restaurant for 5 YEARS ... literally since the day they opened!! So, I didn't think asking to have a baked potato because I don't eat sweet potatoes was THAT BIG of an ask! (The price of which is about $4.00: $3.39+tx). Even if I ordered it by mistake, I DON'T EAT THEM ... I just wanted a whole meal for the $25.00 I paid. So, I sent my husband back to the restaurant to make the exchange. When he returned, he described the most egregious interaction I've ever heard which included the cashier telling him: This was His Wife's fault and this would only be a 1 time exchange. They aren't happy about making this exchange because they're losing money. So, we should'n't ever expect that again in the future! Now, I don't know what EXACTLY was said because I wasn't there, but I don't have to be there to understand that if anything remotely close to this happened, then I would classify that is the POOREST SERVICE EVER!! Especially considering they are a high-end smokehouse. THIS was certainly NOT HIGH END SERVICE. AGAIN! I would suggest this place consider that when you're the high price leader in your category, not everyone can afford your food. So, it is NOT WISE to alienate customers that have frequented your restaurant for the last 5 years! Especially those that live in a country club community because I will tell all my friends and neighbors about this experience and how we were treated after being a long-term customer. While I haven't had complaints about their service in the past ... the, last time I ordered, the food was disappointing. This time, the food was okay, but the service really was lacking. I didn't appreciate them hanging up the phone and I feel that if you are going to sell High Priced food ($25.00, inc. tx {for single plate of 2 items} is pricey) then you should also have a HIGHER STANDARD OF SERVICE! It was overall ... THE WORST!!
