The sides that comes in the Salt lick plates are really good, the coleslaw, the potato and beans. We ordered the Bison rib & Brisket plate combo and the pulled pork. I thought brisket and the bison rib were more on the drier side. The pulled pork was more moist. We also ordered a side of sweet potato and that basket was big. Overall I would go back but I do wish the brisket was more moist. The inside is huge and very Texan.

WONDERFUL STOP!! We…read morewere HUUUUNGRY... with BBQ on the brain! We were headed to Dallas, saw the sign on I-35, and thought... that's it... Lunch is a calling! The parking lot was FULL, but we took a chance anyway. We walked in; the place was buzzing with conversation & laughter, creating a wonderful atmosphere! The line was NOT long, and with 6+ employees at the registers, there was minimal to no wait... maybe 3 min! We quickly ordered our food; the prices were very fair; we were pleasantly surprised! The staff is very kind and knowledgeable, and happy to answer your questions! After getting our food (which was super fast), we stopped by the condiment bar, grabbed what we wanted (pickles, onions, jalapeños, etc.), and found a little spot at one of their long (picnic-type) table seats. We sat down and immediately said WOW, this is so fresh, tasty, and HOT! There was plenty of food; we could've shared (but we didn't)... we just ate till we were stuffed; it was SOOOOO delicious! So, go getcha some... take your time... and bring a little home for later! Don't forget the Banana Pudding... you deserve this sweet treat! ENJOY!! We sure did!

With a craving, I ordered some fatty brisket via delivery for myself and the wife…read more.. What actually arrived ... The meat (fatty cut of brisket) was completely grizzled with charred fat like the center or end piece or something that had sat in the back end of a smoke pit for 2 or 3 days... a synthetic smoke flavor that resembled what a medicated band-aid smells like... Diabolical. I have been a Rudy's customer for many years at the Round Rock location and kept coming back randomly because of the basic consistency... pretty good typically on any given day overall, especially the turkey... historically had been a solid choice in a pinch. brisket was typically decent and the sides and plenty of bread... you typically couldn't go wrong. Those days may have ended... Bottom line... On the night of Sept. 30, something was really, really really wrong. 1. Brisket tasted old and leathery.. what I could ingest, I'm still burping up 2 days later. 2. No bbq sauce packets or containers at all. That might have helped mask the disasterous product. 3. Side of beans tasted like fake synthetic smoke infusion also. 4. Cobbler was probably refrigerated for over a month, as per my suspicion. questionable at best. 48 bucks for disappointment and disastrous, violent indigestion. Rudy's was once fairly solid here. Something is really wrong over there, at least on that fateful evening. Bad luck for me or cooks that didn't care!? I'll never know. No. Just no. I'll never do ANY bbq again for awhile as I'm a little traumatized. Just salad and Rolaids (xtra strengh) for the rest of the year. Do better, Rudy's.

I try to give places a chance before deciding they are not for me…read more When I first moved to Hutto, I was intrigued by Southside Market and their history. I had known about the historic location in Elgin that claims to be the oldest barbecue spot in Texas. They have updated their processes to keep up with the times and in the last 15 years have begun opening new locations throughout Central Texas, with one in the Co-Op District of Hutto. I have had plenty of barbecue in my time, from chains to Texas Monthly recognized and Michelin star winning locations. I understand that not all barbecue is the same, but I also understand that barbecue served all day like at Southside Market can still be good. I do not think that is truly the case, though. My first experience was when Southside Market catered a holiday party for my work. I thought it was alright, but I gave them the benefit of the doubt, saying that it was catered. You do not judge a meal based on it being kept warm in a pan that was probably cooked at 8 am that morning or the night prior. It is not the same game. I went back a few months later for a birthday lunch and got their combo plate with sausage and sliced brisket. My first thought: This tasted like it was catered. The Jalapeño Cheddar sausage was decent but tasted a little too smoky, and the brisket really did nothing for me. The side of potato salad was good, but you cannot mess up potato salad that badly. Their mac and cheese was good, I think. I do not remember it whatsoever. I went back recently after almost nine months with a desire to get a baked potato with chopped brisket for lunch. I got it without sour cream but kept the rest of the toppings of cheddar cheese, chives, and butter. I took it to go, which I rarely do, but it was a busy day. I cannot describe how disappointing the potato was. First, the potato was smaller than I had expected. The saucy chopped brisket tasted like a smoked Sloppy Joe thrown on a spud. It was really too smoky for me to even enjoy it. I felt like I was eating a chimney. It did nothing to raise my spirits and like that, I was forever out on Southside Market. I am probably one in a million because they have steady foot traffic inside on a frequent basis, but I wonder if the name is doing all the work. The staff was great and the space is well done and spacious, but the food actually has to be good to make that a plus factor. I have no idea if the food is any better at their original Elgin location, but I would rather go to Smokey Mo's across the tracks in Hutto because the potato is a good size and the brisket had a good flavor to it. Here, I just was not impressed. I will not ever return unless I am invited with co-workers or something, and even if I am, I will debate the idea of saying yes.

This of this as pork belly, bbq'ed until slightly charred and crispy on the outside. The other bonus? Their pickles are sliced thick, not thin, so they keep a good crunch. Great spot to grab above average, quick BBQ... and try their spicy sauce. Decent kick without a lot of burn - not the sugary syrups other places serve.

We chatted for about an hour and a half and did not see the place completely full, but enough to be busy. They provided a sample of crisps with an egg salad type of dip. It was tasty and a light surprise. The chicken and biscuits were amazing. The creamy sauce had a bit of jalapeño, giving it a distinct and light heat and flavor. The potatoes were like hashbrowns with great seasoning. The chicken was moist and delicious. Would absolutely come back for the food and service. Price-wise, $20-30 is about what it is per person.

They have great proportions of egg, cheese, bacon, chorizo, potatoes, and all that jazz. I think they have some of the best breakfast tacos I have had in town. I have had them a few times now. Yesterday, I went to Smokey Mo's for dinner because I wanted a baked potato desperately. I walked inside with only a few other people eating and no line. I ordered a chopped brisket baked potato with all the fixings, with an individual sized side of their pinto beans and a regular drink. They have plenty of drink options from bottled beverages, alcoholic beverages, and their Pepsi fountain drinks. They also have a section to serve yourself with pickles, onions, lemons, and peppers. It was only a few minutes before I got my meal, and the baked potato was excellent. I ate it as quickly as I could for recently having my wisdom teeth removed. It is a pretty large potato, and it was able to fill a hungry guy like myself up pretty well. The chopped brisket was plentiful and was quite savory. I missed brisket. As I finished my meal, I went to get a refill of my tea, and they had already removed the teas from their fountain drink area. There were still other customers inside besides me, and they were still open for another 40 minutes, so that was a little disappointing, but it did not really make or break the visit. I have not had their main barbecue, but it looks decent for being a seven days a week chain. That baked potato was delightful though. RIYL: A spuddo in Hutto.
