Welcome to 100% Eat The Show, where we try every fast food restaurant to let you know if you need it.
You probably do
I'm your host Michael Jones alongside my coast Jordan Spears Jordan. How are you? Oh very good? Thank you
And we did feel very good and normal. Yeah, I'm normal and
Today couldn't be truer. We are trying every fast food restaurant. Yeah, finally went to Rudy's that didn't take long. Oh
No, not a cop skin get us
We know where they all are right now. We're at Rudy's. Yes, yes, yes, they
are. God damn. That, the subway guy should be working there because it probably is a
convention. That was... Is there a convention? Yeah. It sure looked like it. I will say none
of the people working at Rudy's were subway space cadets like that guy. No, certainly not.
No, and right off the rip, I was very pleased because Eric walked up first and he was just
starting to place the order and I heard a guy be like, oh, Eric, da da da da da.
He's like, oh man, I love you.
Just Eric.
And I walked up, but no, he sucks.
And the guy went, oh, oh, oh, oh, you're all here.
And then another guy came over and went,
are you guys doing an episode here?
And they were like, yeah.
And he was like, awesome.
They all worked there.
And the guy Eric was actually talking to was just like,
I don't know what's going on.
Oh, he definitely didn't know.
The guy taking your order was like, cool.
Yeah.
So what do you want?
Uh, we had-
You know he was thinking,
bunch of white guys? Yep. Got to be white guys. Yeah. Are you was thinking, but why guys? Yep.
Are you the white strip on the flag?
And then 30 cops walk.
Yeah. Yes.
Not at once.
No, they really just streamed in
and again and again.
That was fucking crazy.
They must have heard that we were
there. They said there must be
podcasts here. We got to put a stop
to it. Right. Four white guys in one
place without microphones. We've got to get stop to it. Four white guys in one place without microphones.
We got to put a stop to it.
They were like, get off our flag.
Pretty sure that's illegal, yeah.
We had the guys who recognized us,
compliments, Crackles.
Oh yeah, yeah.
Thank you.
Shouts out.
Patreon.com slash 100% eat.
Can you imagine if they weren't watching this?
This is the free one.
Yeah.
We should have told them. Outrageous.
We should have told them about the episode
that became the Michael Jordan podcast for last week's,
which if you have not watched, go check that out.
Well, I mean, they found that out on their own accord.
They must have.
I watched that last night.
So we recorded that yesterday.
Yes.
Bonkers episode we were talking about.
The second we left, I was like, give me the footage now.
I want to watch it now.
I told Nick, I was like, don't drop everything to do it,
but drop something because I need it.
And then you uploaded it.
I was checking every five minutes
and it was still processing.
Oh, no.
On like the Google Drive and I was going,
I'm going to fucking watch it.
I watched it last night.
It is more unhinged than I remember being there.
Like watching it as a video, granted, it's like extra unhinged
because it's raw. Like it camera audio the lighting looks like shit
It's just like doesn't look good, but it adds to like
What am I what is hey? Maybe we shouldn't what is this? It's so fucking weird, dude
You saying this should be the Michael Jordan podcast and us coming around to it, that was a stroke of genius.
You know what else was a stroke of genius?
Deciding to go to Rudy's today.
Yes, yes it was.
Because it's always one, it's always a great decision.
Yes, oh my God.
And two, we were, we didn't want to be on a time crunch
so we wanted to go somewhere not too slow.
And I remember we were talking about Rudy's not too long ago.
Oh, yeah. I drove by it and I was like, let's try it because Rudy's is never
slow to get you the food.
They're always even when they're packed, even when there's a lot of people,
they're quick. They know what they're really.
They're also a place when it's packed and you go to maybe not
fast food places much anymore.
But any place like the fucking grocery store where there'll be like nine registers
and it's packed as fuck and there's two people working.
Yes.
Rudy's as a person at every register.
Yeah, absolutely.
Rudy's, if it's packed, there's seven people working.
Every register's cooking, it's going, it's great.
And it's also impressive too,
because every single time you go,
it's like part of Rudy's thing,
they say like, oh, is this your first time?
And if you say, yeah, they'll immediately be like,
oh, do you wanna sample stuff?
And you think that would slow it the fuck down.
And like, granted, that's every so often,
it's not a lot, but it happens enough.
And you'd think that would be like, oh my God.
But they're just like, boom, here's a brisket,
here's a sausage, whatever,
and they come out with little cups and shit. And I go, look at that, they're having it for the first time. Or I bet people like Nick oh my God. But they're just like, boom, here's a brisket, here's a sausage, whatever, and they come out with little cups and shit.
And I go, look at that,
they're having it for the first time.
Or I bet people like Nick go in and they go,
no, I've never been here.
I'm new, I'm a new guy.
But I would like to sample the brisket.
I'd like to sample this again.
One pound.
One pound sample?
Man, so we went specifically
because we've been talking about the jumbo smoked potato.
Yeah.
I'm so glad with everything that we got though, where you were like, what else we get? Like, what? I want brisket.
What else we get?
We can't not go to Rudy's and not get brisket.
I don't think that it's right.
I think those cops, that's why those cops are there.
Yeah, to make sure. They got 30 cops in there to make sure you got the brisket also
And boy we got a pound and a half
We flew through it. We did that half really made a difference. I was worried getting a pound with this guy
Yeah
It was fair because it was a pound and a half. If there wasn't he would not have been fit
He would have eaten the same amount and been unfair
That's that's why I said that I didn't I did nothing to help but you made the right choice
By assuming I wouldn't limit myself. Uh-huh. I think I said to Jordan
I don't know who were there whatever we're talking about the pound and a half
I go I watched this guy sucked down 35 wings yesterday. Yes. Uh-huh. Okay. The pound almost broke his record.
When he got here today, the last episode, we had all the wings from KFC and Nick ate all of them.
And then when he got here today, he told us how he didn't eat anything the rest of the day
and then went and shot hoops.
And like, he's like, it's not good.
I was slow.
Dribble. shot hoops and like, he's like, it's not good. I was slow. Yeah.
Dribble.
That sounds horrible.
And dribble.
Yeah.
It's sweating out fucking Chipotle Sriracha.
Chipotle ranch.
Oh God.
I gotta get this garlic honey out of me.
Yeah, no kidding.
At least when I start sweating from this, it'll be good.
Hell yeah.
It'll be like, oh, I stink like meat. Yeah. Oh, it'll be good. Hell yeah. It'll be like I think like me. Yeah
And we all and we all washed our hands too. Oh, yeah
Yeah, I didn't realize
Like a smiling friend's care. Yeah, it's crazy. He was like he's like using his tongue sucking on fingers. It's fucking nuts
Hey, hey paper. Just put your hands in
I don't think I want to know.
It's really cool.
I think I will do it.
I'll put my hands in there.
Dr.
Monsters is I should see this is good.
It's a whole smiling friends.
I'm doing all the voices and then it's clip and he's just sucking it down.
Yeah, I didn't realize that you were a cheese guy at Rudy's.
I think you got to get the cheese right.
I said at Rudy's. Yeah, you know know I'm right. I know you're a cheese
guy. Being a cheese guy is detrimental to this podcast.
Yeah. Yeah. I don't know about detrimental. I think it gives
a lot of content. It's the reason that the podcast
started. I would argue it's detrimental to me. I agree with
that. Maybe to your time. When you get up in the middle of
the night, you make four cheesy roll-ups.
Dude, you do that, forget about it,
and go, man, what is causing it?
Was it in the middle of the night?
Yeah, and also I did take lactate.
So it actually passed through me.
Michael's got the- It would've been way worse.
Michael's got those revolutionary era sleep patterns.
Yeah.
People used to wake up in the middle of the night and like do chores
Yeah, he's doing like a reverse sleep. I needed a quick protein boost, dude
I have the like giant almost tortilla size bag of shredded cheese. Yeah, it's like that big and
I took four just regular flour tortillas dude. It was like just like a
Everyone it was probably like 30 grams of protein from cheese.
And I like rolled these fuckers up, put them in the air fryer,
sucked it down, right back out.
Yep. Hell yeah.
Speaking of big bags of stuff, I want to get to this story before we get to our,
to our Rudd Pinions.
The person, so you were, you were here before any of us.
Yes.
And somebody showed up.
I totally, I didn't, I wasn't even going to bring it up.
It's so funny.
I totally forgot about it.
Yeah.
You did?
I was here.
I had a-
He had so many good things happen to him since then that he forgot.
He was here at 9 a.m.
To check on the fridge to make sure it was still here.
And he was just looking at it.
When all of a sudden-
So I got here earlier than you guys.
I had a meeting that I had to take and I had to get some stuff done.
So I got here and then-
He was playing Lego Star Wars.
I was playing Lego Star Wars.
I had to meet Qui-Gon Jinn.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I had to get some stuff done.
It was a meeting.
I was earlier than you guys, so you know.
It's pretty bold.
But I got about 100 bricks, so I'm 2% in.
It's pretty bold of you to think that I've made it
to Star Wars Episode I in that game.
All right.
Well, it's the first one.
So I got done with my meeting
and I was waiting for you guys.
I'm sitting on the couch out here and I hear the door open
and I just go, yo, what up?
Because I figure it's Nick very early or Jordan or whatever.
Only three people who have ever come in this building.
Right.
So after I say, yo, what up?
I just hear hello and it's someone I don't recognize
and I go, uh-oh.
Stand up and I go, oh, hey, what's going on?
It's a dude.
He's dressed nice.
Like a button up shirt on and everything.
And he's like, hi, I have a misdelivered package here.
And I looked around and I went, I don't think so.
And we're in our lobby and he's walking in and he's like, yeah,
why would you say that?
You're stupid.
I can't believe you just did that.
Oh, wow. I can't believe you just did that. I can't believe you just did that
That's all I'm
Redible I'll be right back. I gotta go on the bonkers board dude. That is the first
That's a fucking crazy thing I the words are about to come out of your mouth
I still trusted you weren't going to do it. I
can't believe it. That I there's really nothing I even
need to say because you are you can't believe I'm furious.
Yeah. I honestly I think it's some it might be that seat
dude. Yeah. Doc Doc's stuff. It might be that seat. I don't
know. Oh yeah. Yeah. God damn. There's like a truth serum in that seat.
So he said, hey, you're this unit. This is where it's delivered to.
And I said, yeah, that's us. And he went, this is where it says it's delivered. And I said,
Nope. And he by this point, he's walked through our like lobby to kind of like our middle area. He's just, he's like snooping.
Yes, absolutely.
And he's like, oh, we're, I'll just say like what they are.
We're a tortilla company.
Oh, it might be that.
And he points to a three pound bag of tortilla strips that we got from Costco.
Go get the bag.
Yeah, yeah, get the bag real quick.
I mean, I'm saying because you're closer.
It is, he just points at it and he goes, yeah, get the bag real quick. I mean, I'm saying because you're closer. I'll get it.
It is, he just points at it and he goes, yeah, it might be that.
Probably that.
And I laugh because it's this?
Kirkland Signature.
Oh yeah, Kirkland Signature three pound bag.
Yeah, we're a tortilla company.
That's definitely ours.
This is, yeah.
Yeah, we buy them in bulk.
Yeah, it might be that. And I just
went, right. And he went, yeah. So and he went to go get it.
And I went, we got these from Costco. And he's like, Oh,
was it any of these? And I went, no, these are all our
packages. We don't have your thing. Get out. I'm like, I'll
I'll get, I'll get the mail sorted. If I see it chips, Mike, if I see it, I'll get the mail sorted if I see it.
He tried to mail our tortilla chips.
I'm like, if I see it, I'll bring it to you.
Sorry for the confusion, whatever.
And he's like, oh, okay.
For someone to come in and be like, that's it.
That's got to be it.
It's vaguely related.
Oh, those are my tortilla chips.
What the fuck are you talking about?
I was like, Eric, when he was telling us earlier, he's like, what are you going to wet them
and flatten them out?
Put them back together?
Remake them? These strips, they're too crunchy. on us earlier. He's like, what are you going to wet them and flatten them out?
Put them back together. We make them these strips.
I don't even. It's also like, look, I don't know what a tortilla company is.
Uh huh. No idea. Right.
But I imagine if chips are in that, you need more than a single three pound.
I think all this is our delivery. Yeah.
I said if a guy came, he's like, I work for a light bulb factory.
I think that's our light bulb.
I might be able to pull that single light bulb out of your ceiling and leave
Don't be on my way. I brought a ladder. Yeah, I'll be on my way. And it was like oh man they come dirty. Yeah
It was so
Bizarre and then I let you guys know right in a very odd way. Yeah, the way you phrased it
I was like wait. I was like? I wasn't sure what you were saying, which is why I asked.
I'm also, I was like, I was like on my way.
So I was like, I'm going to get this from him in person.
Just had our first dude walk in looking to a misdelivered package.
He said he works at a tortilla company.
He tried to take our tortilla chips and Michael just said wait what and then I said I saved them don't worry
I didn't know one asked me on that
He's being he's being cryptic
I
Can't believe I said the fucking unit number. I'm so
You know who thinks it's hilarious
I can't believe that we are now 15 minutes in
Oh, and it was about 17 or so minutes in when I mentioned last time this is totally different
This is a regular episode totally on track good. Yeah, we're about to get back to Rudy's
We talked about a little bit talked about that you doxxed us for some reason going back to Rudy's
He's wiggle waggle in this fucking sauce packet. I know we'll get to it
Right now right now right so
The compliments crackle at Rudy's who's working there said hey
You know you influenced us Nick and let me and I'm not to mention by the way
This is at like after we got the food right this is like is like to the side, the utensils and the condiments.
And because they got a bunch of onions and pickles.
And you know, already he's pulled it out.
He pulled it out.
He's showing me as I walk by. Literally going, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look there like he walked up to Nick he's like yeah we didn't used to have these before uh-huh and then you happened on the podcast and I said we gotta get
these for the restaurant and now we have Texas Pete at Rudy's because of Nick
that's awesome that's so fucking crazy that's very because that's not the name
of this song he just goes because he Pete, it's Texas Pete, all of that bullshit being so insane,
and a guy who works at a restaurant said, we gotta get it.
He just went, and he went, and you know what?
Look, and they made a tray for it.
It wasn't like a shitty thing on the side, it's with all the other condiments, it looks
like a real thing that Nick had nothing to do with.
So I don't know if it's at all the Rudy's. I'm sure it's not.
But if you go to the one on North Lamar.
But know that Nick did this.
That's crazy. You can get Nick's.
It goes Pete, Texas Pete hot sauce.
The genuine article. That that so insane. Well,
the stupid and you're welcome.
You're welcome.
It's so pleased.
Whoa.
This is a hot sauce that is so
made for a barbecue
country store spot.
Yeah.
Everything about it is just, hey,
this is runny as fuck.
It's there's nothing on it. Everything about it is just, hey this is runny as fuck. It's more liquid than anything.
There's nothing on it, only black printing in the shittiest little package.
And people go, I'll get a handful of these.
He threw one on me, he has like five in his pocket.
Oh yeah, well he's taking them home.
Well yeah, and those he can have, I'm not gonna ask that he leaves them here.
I can't believe, I can't believe that this show
influenced anything ever for anyone. Yeah. Who says we're not heroes? It's him. No one says that.
Of everything that's happened, it's him over my shoulder. You had a wiener schnitzel. I got beer.
The craziest shit.
I'm so glad that we got to keep making this show.
I know, right?
Isn't it crazy?
It's better.
It is.
It really is.
We get to do it more often.
It feels like we're sharper.
It feels like we're having more fun with it.
And now somebody said, we got to get the shit fucking hot sauce from my restaurant.
And we don't have to eat limited time food!
No, now we get to do-
Because he made us do that!
And I always had a fucking chip on my shoulder for it.
And now we don't have to and I feel better about it.
And now you ate that chip.
Yeah, now I ate that chip.
Now Jordan hates you for the fans.
I think Eric hates me for the fans.
I think Eric hates himself for the hot sauce.
That's going to drive him crazy for the rest of the day.
The rest of the day I'm going to think about it. I think Eric gets me for the van Eric hates himself
Everything else and like again it was relentless in that episode anytime something would upset him I would lean into it and just hammer him this one do not touch
Don't have to because he is gonna be so mad unreal unreal unreal alright, so what are our red pinions?
Yeah, Rudy's awesome fucking incredible restaurant. I love it.
We were talking about- Paul Rudd, good actor.
Paul Rudd for him.
He's clueless. He's in so many things.
Aging gracefully. There you go.
The thing about Rudy's, we were talking about there,
is we all live here and we have,
we're spoiled for choice when it comes to
so many different barbecue places.
There are amazing barbecue places everywhere.
And there are, there's Franklin's, which is arguably one of the best in the country.
Absolutely.
Down the street, there's Michael weight, which I think is better than Frank.
I agree with you.
I totally agree with you.
Which is amazing.
And the thing about all those places is they're really great when you have a big group or
you have friends in from out of town or you're doing something an occasion?
Yes, when you live here and it is Thursday night and you want dinner or whatever you cannot dude nothing beats Rudy's
Yes, Rudy's so fucking unstoppable. There are people listening to this or watching it going like I can't fucking believe they're saying that
Their barbecue is never bad I enjoy it every time the line moves fast I get exactly
what I want there's a fuck ton of space it's under every movies has a fucking
parking lot yeah sometimes a gas station yep just convenient and it's not like
go to Franklin this where the fuck are you parking exactly figure it out this
Rudy's in particular used to be like
two separate restaurants.
Yes.
That they bought both of them
and combine it into like one big space
with like this little defacto kind of patio
like indoor outdoor space.
And then there's like,
what used to be a whole restaurant on its own, right?
Is now just like private event space for Rudy's.
Yep.
Which is why I think all the cops were doing.
Yeah, probably. Well, and even if they weren't gonna use it, they were gonna draw down in it and just like use it space for Rudy's. Yep. Which is why I think all the cops were doing. Yeah, probably.
Well, even if they weren't going to use it,
they were going to draw down in it
and just like use it whether they wanted them to or not.
Just get in there and fucking like, let us in.
And then-
Imminent domain.
Yeah, absolutely.
This is ours now.
Imminent domain at the private dining space at the Rudy's.
It's fucking awesome. Cops saying stuff. Too many cops. In the domain of the private
Same stuff too many cops too many different kinds of cops that was a little and too many cops dressed in different things
Like suit detective Walker Texas Rangers. Yep
And don't worry they all had guns! All of them!
And you just have to be fast.
That's all you have to be.
Michael's fast.
Michael's fast.
Yeah, I'm just standing there at the register and Eric leans over and he's like, you're
fast?
And I go, what?
He's like, you're fast.
You can get it.
I'm like, what are you?
Oh.
He looks over and goes. Down at it. I'm like, what are you? Oh, he looks over down at me.
I went, oh, there's seven registers at Rudy's.
We're at the furthest one.
There's an officer at the one furthest from us.
No one in between.
And Michael just turned around, saw it and went, OK.
Very, very eye roll dismissive.
All right.
Of course, absolutely. That's all I'm saying. That's all I'm saying. Very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, yeah, yeah. So I can sign. And then I was going to write him a note and be like, thank you. Yeah, yes.
I was going to sign autographs for that compliment, Scraggle.
If anything, it's his fault.
Right.
Make a speech.
Another thing, we've been doing this show for a long time now.
Half a decade.
Yeah.
And- Ooh, that, well-
Crazy.
Almost, right?
Yeah, just about.
Yeah, I think we're just about there.
I think 2019?
November? Right at the end of 2019. Yeah, but I think we recorded our first- Perfect're just I think 2019 Yeah, but I think we're
Great we'll do about four together and then
Don't worry about it a bunch in parks, uh, I think we recorded the first one in late August
Yeah
Anyway, but um We've only been recognized by people working at restaurants, I think a handful of times.
I think you can count on one hand.
It's pretty rare.
Yeah.
And it's never the places like the Burger King, the Wendy's, the Taco Bell, but there's something that makes me proud that we got recognized at Rudy's.
By like a few people.
An Austin institution, and in my mind a high quality restaurant also it was we got we got recognized well Eric
got recognized I I'll be honest if he knows Eric
he's gonna know so I immediately shit on Eric like you're hiding behind like wait
for this yeah yeah that is exactly and like I went I'm gonna blow this guy's mind
he was like oh and it's mine and then so you and Nick was like oh you're all here and then the other
guy came over also recognized and then I, it was like, oh, you're all here. And then the other guy came over, also recognized.
And then I was really proud.
And he goes, oh, you're recording an episode here?
And we're like, yeah, we are.
Because we never are.
No.
No one ever says, are you doing this restaurant?
And I say, no.
Yeah.
I'm just eating.
This is my family.
But I was like, I was so excited to be like, yes, we are.
And that guy's watching this right now. Absolutely. Thank you. That made my day. But I was like, I was so excited to be like, yes we are!
And that guy's watching this right now.
Absolutely, thank you.
That made my day.
Yeah, that was awesome.
They've given us a discount though.
With tip, $97.
Think about that.
You tipped him.
Yeah.
Did you see what we just did for that?
It wasn't the guy at the register.
Yeah, yeah, not specifically that guy.
You're welcome.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's Pico's P! I know. Here's your tip. Yeah.
Little thing. Make him dance around. Oh my God. There's like a Rudy Sherolder
meeting. Yeah. North Lamar. Yeah. Rudy. Something's going on over there.
Providence skyrocketed and we don't know whatever Whatever they're doing, you need to do it.
It must have something to do with this goddamn hot sauce.
Oh, man. But we should learn about Rudy's especially.
Okay. Let's do it.
Originally, started as a gas station slash garage slash grocery store in Leon Springs, Texas in 1889.
Rudy's became Rudy's Country Store and Barbecue in 1989,
just a mere 100 years later,
when it began selling barbecue.
Isn't that crazy?
Backed over.
Wait, it didn't sell barbecue for a hundred years?
Yes, it was a gas station, just like a spot.
Whose idea was it?
Oh, we will, let me see, hang on.
We will get to that.
Oh.
He did it in a really dickhead way.
Yeah.
You could have just said...
Now, I will say, I did that specifically
because I couldn't remember if I included the fact
about this guy or not.
Okay, okay.
I was like, I think so?
I was like, we're getting some attitude
from Dr. Doxer over here.
Yeah.
You have no leg to stand on. That from dr. Doxer over here
Alright Rudy's has expanded to 51 locations across six states and was dubbed quote the best of the best by Arnold Schwarzenegger
across six states and was dubbed quote the best of the best by Arnold Schwarzenegger on a trip to Austin the governor
Governor came through Austin ate barbecue and said Austin LaVista baby to the whole town um
He'll be back Terminator emoji yeah
Terminator exoskeleton yes to be clear not of Arnie himself. So you could say it's in black and white
Because it's not silver. I guess yeah, but it's close enough. Yeah doesn't stand out enough, right?
How did you is that just an image you I went? What can I use?
I'm like, what can I use for the Terminator emoji and then I googled Terminator emojis
There are so many fake Terminator emojis. There are so many fake Terminator emojis.
There are so many.
A lot of them.
You should have included all of them.
A lot of them are.
Yeah, that could have been two sentences.
A lot of them are like half of the face
of Arnold Schwarzenegger, half of like the skeleton.
Yeah.
How's that fake?
Because they're not actual like emojis from like your phone.
Right, they're not official.
Yeah, these are like weird like little edited ones yeah yeah yeah but
I call them little picks there's so many Terminator little picks with an X yeah
yeah yeah trademark it is now this one's for Jordan in 2009 Rudy sponsored
NASCAR driver Brad Coleman on team Joe Gibbs racing for three Xfinity series
Then nationwide uh-huh races under the name Rudy's comm why none of that makes sense to us
But we bet Jordan's going crazy for it
And he's coming up with ideas on how 100% he can sponsor a car
We'll only sponsor a car if it's willing to crash into other cars Dale Dale Earnhardt style, and you know exactly what we mean by that.
Intimidator monkey.
I know what that means, because Junior's a lot.
Yeah, that's true.
That's what got Dale Earnhardt.
He just decided to go crazy.
Intimidator monkey style.
He said, I'm the intimidator.
Watch this.
I do think that we should try to get art of a shirt
that looks like an old NASCAR shirt that is Dale Earnhardt.
Like it's the monkey.
But it's the monkey.
Yeah, it's an Intimidator monkey.
Yeah, yeah, and he's like leaning out of the car.
You know what I mean?
Like the big glasses.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dude, that would be sick.
What's the number?
Cause Dale Earnhardt's three.
One.
Damn. For the monkey? Yeah. I mean, he's Earnhardt's three. One. Damn.
For the monkey?
Yeah.
I mean, he's got to be number 100.
Yeah.
Oh!
That was good.
That's really good.
Cause I don't think we would have got there.
Thank you.
No.
I said one.
It's also not a number that would be used in NASCAR.
No, no.
This is really good.
If you're an artist, please reach out.
I would love to do a NASCAR style shirt of the monkey.
That sounds crazy.
That would be so cool.
That would be really cool.
Intimidator monkey.
He's like on the fucking black top,
leaning out of the car.
Oh, it's so cool.
He should be leaning out of the car as it's driving,
but he's about to smash into a wall.
Doesn't realize it.
He's driving like Ace Ventura.
He's just looking at you guys, looking like this,
and the wall's right there.
He's like the Joker.
Oh no, and then on the back, it's black and white RIP.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Gone but not forgotten.
Dude, on my way here, I was behind a car
that had a Dale Earnhardt Memorial sticker on it.
Dude, it's still.
It was the three with angel wings on it.
Yo, that's a good one.
But like the Dale Earnhardt thing is still everywhere. Yeah. The three, the intimid a good one. But like the Dill Earnhardt thing is still
Everywhere. Yeah, the three the intimidator everything. It's affected
Millions it's affected. Everyone's like the zeitgeist. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, and that's why we got to get intimidator monkey
Okay, that fuck yeah, and and and Austin Dillon really living up to that number. That's a that's a comment for true fans
This is like the slipknot bit. Yeah, no, it is. Yeah.
It's just for you.
Why were they Rudy's dot com?
That doesn't make any sense.
I think it was just I mean, 2009.
I think they were going like, dude, go to Rudy's dot com.
OK, we have a website.
Yeah. Also, we should definitely sponsor a car because I bet it could be really cheap.
For like a lower for a lower series.
I mean, we can do it.
We there's no way we could do Xfinity series. I mean, that's yeah, that was you think we could just give someone Ray's magnet
Put this on your little fucking dirt car I don't give a shit he like it's another car it goes on their car
We were over 14, but 26 star guy go that guy
Like venom
Like Gryffball
That's great
It's a good idea
Damn
Rudy's is a privately owned company led by Phil Romano, the man who brought to fruition
Romano's Macaroni Grill and Fuddruckers.
What?
Thanks, Phil.
We appreciate you created a restaurant we can easily call Buttfuckers without even so
much of a second thought and now they're pretty much all gone.
We have no feelings about a macaroni grill.
We don't know what that is.
If you named it Big Johnson's Hog City Bang Hut or something,
we'd probably be more into it.
Food for thought.
So that's the guy who sent you barbecue.
Wow!
Yeah.
Thanks, Phil.
I mean, I... Look.
It works.
Yeah.
Yeah. I...
Part of me thinks he didn't have a lot to do with getting them to this point.
Oh, yeah. He sold... He sold it back in like, I think like 2000 or like right around there.
It just feels like Rudy's is too good.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
To be like his brainchild.
And the other thing is, are they not also, do they not also own all the Mighty Fine?
And that's who he sold to.
I see.
Is the Austin owner specific.
So it's owned by management.
He's whispering. I'm by management. He's whispering.
I'm ignoring him.
We just ate.
I'm ignoring him.
But loudly.
Yeah, so loud.
And into the microphone.
And they're going, we should go there.
We should go there.
The management group in Austin
that owns all of the Rudy's in Austin also opened Mighty Fine.
So they are the same, he whispered, yeah.
So they're the same group.
It's the same kind of line format.
Yes, everything about it is pretty similar.
They have the hand washing machine.
I bet they have stickers.
They fucking better.
And if you go, apparently there's like an employee,
like if you go to the far side of the restaurant,
like where you order from,
and then like the far side of the restaurant,
there's see-through, there's like one way glass.
Do you know about this?. Do you know about this?
Where, you know about this?
So.
Yeah, I was like, keep talking.
There's a one-way glass from like the employees only area
that looks into the dining room.
And if you're in the dining room looking through,
like to it, it's like stickers and like, yeah.
Fucking weird.
That is weird.
It's very weird.
Somebody posted a picture and I just went, yeah. Fucking weird. That is weird. It's very weird.
Somebody posted a picture and I just went,
this is not okay.
It reminds me of when I went to Wrigley Field
just a couple of weeks ago.
Oh yeah, that's right.
And in the left field area,
if you're walking along like the concourse,
there's a big window that is the inside of the dugout
for the cubs.
Yeah. And it's just a bunch of the like the pictures hanging out.
It's just a relief area.
You just go in, you could walk right up to it and look at them
and they can look at you.
Yep.
And it's very awkward.
It's very awkward that you can look at them.
Yes.
Because if it was like one way they could look at you,
they don't care about you.
Right.
They're not.
Right.
It's just you can't see for them.
If I could only see them, I'd be like,
okay, that's kind of interesting.
But looking at them
and knowing they can look at me looking at them
and being like, wow, baseball players!
And then being like,
you make a lot of money!
As a normal person,
I want to walk up to the window and go,
I'm so sorry that we can see you.
It's like a zoo.
So unnecessary.
You posted that picture.
I think it was in one of our other group texts.
And you're like, hey, this is where the relief pictures are at Wrigley.
And it was just a bunch of guys sitting around like, like, when you look at the gorillas
at the zoo, where it's just glass, they could go.
There was a sign that said said don't tap on the glass
Feed the people scare them oh
Man I started throwing started throwing peanuts at the long relief guy
He got pissed you know I'm beating the shit out of the clothes not feed the pitchers
steroids oh
Yeah, they're at a very they're in a well-balanced
No you want some if you put a quarter in the machine you get a needle and you can're in a very, they're in a well-balanced dice machine. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, No, I think the Rays have it too. Well, that ballpark also sucks ass.
Absolutely.
Bottom two.
I think, maybe, now that we know we have several ins
at that Rudy's button, we do our own sticker roll.
Put that up next to the hand wash machine.
I have 100% eat hands.
I'm just saying, exactly.
I 100% ate.
Look, if the guy made the Pico Speed Station happen.
Right, yeah.
We can make this. We can do anything.
As long as it's vague enough, I think maybe we print the stickers.
The sticker says,
I let the little gremlin lick my hands.
I think they'd go, wow, that's, okay, sure.
I'm just saying an idea.
Alright, final fact.
Hunter Biden sued Rudy Giuliani
and another attorney Tuesday,
saying the two wrongly accessed and shared his personal data
after obtaining it from the owner of a Delaware computer repair shop.
This isn't about Rudy's the barbecue place,
but it's the first time I thought about how it has the same name as Rudy Giuliani.
That's fucked up.
Or it's good if you're like nicking into that guy.
He loves the way Rudy sweats his hair color off, thinks it's cool.
Now that's meat sweats. like nicking into that guy. He loves the way Rudy sweats his hair color off, thinks it's cool.
Now that's meat sweats. Dude, yeah.
Sweats his hair color off.
He's like a chameleon.
It's also insanely,
not even like the thing at the top of the list.
Right.
Oh yeah.
It's not like, you know that one thing
he's super well known for?
Yeah.
And it's not sweat and goo. That's like number three or four. I know oh when the black sludge
Yeah, yeah like it was like fucking Gary Oldman from Fifth Element
But it didn't look that it looked weirder than that Gary Oldman's wasn't that weird
Yeah, it was like Rudy was getting a call from mr.
I think he's disbarred now right in like I think in certain areas
Yeah, I think your or whatever I did like his I don't know
You didn't catch me. Oh, yeah didn't inspire my birthday, fuck you.
And then he left and they're like, got you.
Yeah, here you go.
And he was like, herbs?
Just because he was live streaming?
Yeah, he was live streaming where his birthday was.
And then somebody came, they were saying happy birthday.
Happy birthday to you.
And everyone, yay.
He went, here you go.
And he like, slipped out of the Untouchables.
Like, served him papers.
Everything that happens to that guy
seems like something that's from a movie,
but it's worse because it's real.
Yeah, yeah.
Remember when he was the mayor of New York?
Why are we doing this to America's mayor?
Yeah. A lot changes in 20 years. That's all I'm saying.
Yeah.
I remember after 9-11 where it's like, man, this is going to be a thing that people don't joke
about. And it's like, I don't know about that. And then 20 years is really not that long.
When a bunch of people are born after the event and have no sort of-
People don't even remember. Delonhart died like eight months before that yep crazy that's crazy tough year
it was a tough year and McMillian's got you guys are talking about these like
whatever events yeah the big one yeah yeah tough we're done that's it we
should probably get to the food I guess so we yeah, we're like 31. Oh, I think here. No it is but like I don't I think we're making good time
You know is that who are doing running the podcast is definitely not a speed. No. It's not a speed
It's an efficient. We've done this before
Playthrough yeah, yeah speed run of the podcast like a note that we got on what oh?
Yeah, yeah It was a good note. I think we lost What? Oh, I know what you're talking about. Yeah, yeah. It was a good note.
I think we lost it.
Yeah.
It fell in a trash or something.
What if you did this?
That's an idea.
Yeah.
Yeah, I guess.
Thanks.
Yeah, hey, you know what?
What if.
Yeah.
Hey, maybe, I don't know,
listen to an episode before you come up with ideas.
No, no, no.
I have some notes.
Rudy Giuliani's Jbo smoked. Oh, this is dripping black. No, what you should have done is put pretty Juliana
jumbo smoked potato and then the picture of him on the bed.
This is higher than the good. Yeah, that's like one or two. That's pretty good. Four seasons is also up there. That's what he was whippin' out. That's higher than the goo. That's like one or two.
That's pretty good.
Four Seasons is also up there.
To me, that's number one when I think of him is the Four Seasons thing.
Is that when he gooed at Four Seasons?
No, he gooed later.
But it gooed like right afterwards.
And then he also gooed.
Dude, he was trying to goo.
Because I think what happened was he went to the four seasons put some sour cream on it
Yeah
He went to the four seasons of my phone
Soon after he had to give more press conferences and that's when he began to goo. Yeah, and then none of it was good
Well, he wanted to look good on TV. Yeah. Yeah, and he didn't understand what that meant. Yeah, so he started going sweating hair
Black sludge
Really it really is like the fifth element. It really doesn't even look just like colored
Explain that in the movie
Why did a lot of
We just we just listed a bunch of stuff that in that movie? It's still a good movie.
We just listed a bunch of stuff that Rudy Giuliani is known for, and there are people
that are going, who's Rudy Giuliani?
I was going to say, oh, that's my guy.
Hell yeah.
And it's like, I, what?
Why are you listening to this fucking ass?
He's dripping black sludge?
That's your guy?
Yeah, he tells it like it is.
Him and Mike Lindell, those are my guys.
Good pillow.
Good news.
I love pillows.
I love pillows of black sludge.
I love pillows of black sludge. I love pillows of black sludge. I love pillows of black sludge. I love pillows of black sludge. I love pillows of black sludge. Yeah, he tells it like it is. Him and Mike Lindell, those are my guys.
Good pillow, good news. I love pillows, I love black sludge,
and I love the deep state
and getting to the bottom of it. Drain the swamp?
Fucking crazy! Drain the swamp, black sludge.
It's draining out of my vase!
Anyway, Rudy's Jumbo Smoked Potato.
It's a full pound potato seasoned with Rudy's
rub, smoked and served with your choice of two meats, whipped butter, sour cream and
cheese. That reminds me, I say another thing too. Every place, every barbecue place has
their own sauce and Rudy's is a lot more manufactured in that like you can buy it in stores. You
can buy it at Rudy's.com. Forgot to buy a bottle for the,
I know you said for the office.
Okay.
I'm just wait, yesterday.
I got an answer for everything.
But also yesterday he used the one going,
we gotta get it.
And now he's like, fuck, fuck.
No big deal.
They're whatever, like, you know,
everybody has their own shit.
Rudy sauce, fucking good.
I like it.
I love their barbecue sauce.
And I love the consistency.
I hate sauce that's too thin. It can be too thin. And it's like watery. It love their barbecue sauce and I love the consistency. I hate sauce. That's too thin. It can be watery
It's the perfect viscosity. Yeah, it's thick but not too thick. It's perfectly balanced. Yeah
Yeah, it's not spicy, but it's spiced. That's the rub made me think of it. So there's two of them
There's the regular one and then there's the sissy sauce, which apparently is just like doesn't have pepper
I it's that's all it is. It's the regular one. Just essentially don't taste the difference.
It's like both.
It's like Taco Bell sauces.
Yeah, I think we're like, right.
I feel like fire sauce, psychosomatic fire sauce is the real sauce.
Yeah. And they're all the same.
And they just like water it down each level or like they want to water it to my.
I don't know.
They need a sissy.
There's probably sissies.
I don't know.
I mean, my wife doesn't like she had the regular sauce we went here like a week or two ago
And she had like the regular sauce you went it's kind of spike
Oh whoops, and then grab the one that was sissy sauce. I went okay. It is very
Minimal and she has I'm a big-time spice rat. I go nuts for it. I want the spice
I was eating jalapenos like going for it. They have hot carrots now that too. It's like eating like a- It was, I'll be honest, he had a Nick Level comment
where I was getting the-
Get the carrots.
Condiments?
No, well, okay, not that.
Okay, so I'm not Nick Level.
Well, not Eric Level.
Where he just said-
He walked by and was like,
"'Fuck yeah, they got spicy carrots."
I was like, that, he never yelled it like that.
It's not a thing they have here.
It's a, don't, I'm not like you.
Yes you are.
Back home. He is just like us.
Back home at taco shops.
Gracie now, screaming out private information.
You wanna wear the mask for the rest of the episode?
I'm invisible.
I wanna play a verbal game.
Back home at taco shops, they have the carrots,
they're like soaked in vinegar and it's with the peppers
and with the onions and everything.
I saw they just started adding that to Rudy's.
I go nuts for it.
I just wanna eat a million of those carrots.
The consistency is so perfect.
I love that shit.
But like, man, I'm so into this jumbo smoked potato.
I've had it like four fucking times really
Oh really?
This is the first time I've ever eaten it in my life
I love it
I love baked potatoes
I grew up eating baked potatoes
That was like my father like you know mother cooking dinner
Right
As my dad comes over where I go it's always like
It's a staple
Same thing with mashed potatoes
We weren't on mashed potatoes
We were having baked potatoes
Yeah
Cut that fucker open
Butter, sour cream
Not a fan of the bacon. It's too much. Yeah, well because also a lot of times. It's like the shitty
Baco bits yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, and it's like the bacon flavoring. I like bacon. I just don't want bacon pieces. Whatever
But the reason I've never gotten a Rudy's is that shit. I'm a brisket. I'm gonna go I'm gonna get brisket
I got limited space in you right to. Okay, right and it's like look I love baked potato, but it's fucking huge
Yeah, I didn't think it's enormous and it's why I've never gotten it now granted. There's a brisket in it
It's got like butter sour cream cheese brisket. It looks awesome. But if you get it, that's your meal
Yes, yes. Yes, and I've never committed to that.
I've never gone where three other people went,
I'll try the big potato.
So in the entirety of my life, I've never had it.
So I was actually looking forward to getting it.
And then you cut it in half
and then you ate it like a sandwich.
I didn't eat it like a sandwich.
I got some really good pictures.
It's so God damn big at work.
It really wasn't that messy.
I have eaten on this show and out far messier actual sandwiches.
Yes, that didn't hold together as well as a fucking giant baked potato cut in half.
Is a baked potato a sandwich?
It was today.
Damn.
I love this thing.
I think it's really good.
Also a pound.
Great for, hey, we're just going to split this thing in half and then eat a little bit of like this thing. I think it's really good. Also a pound, great for,
hey, we're just gonna split this thing in half
and then eat a little bit of like another thing.
Yeah. Love it.
I would say even like one,
even for one person, half of that potato is-
Oh, it's a lot. It's a lot.
Half of a, half of that potato is so like-
You could easily split that between three or four people
and get a good portion.
Like if you actually wanted it as a side,
you're looking at a third or a quarter of it.
Because then you get some turkey and a sausage
and some brisk, everyone's kind of having on that
and then everyone has like a quarter of this potato,
fucking perfect.
It's so good.
I want to read this press release.
Okay.
Because four words in, I'm quite confused.
What do you mean?
Quote, the camo Cup campaign is something
we take great pride in, said VP of operations Pete Bassett.
These organizations are making a significant impact
for some well-deserving veterans
and service men and women, huh?
Maybe that's why the cops were there.
What's the Camo Cup?
Yeah, tell me more.
I don't know.
There was no press release.
There was no press release for the baked potato. So don't put one in. Why, that's There was no press release. There was no press release for the baked potato.
So don't put one in. Why? That's the most recent press release. That's it. The Camel Cup campaign is something they take pride in.
I feel like when we relaunching the podcast, we were talking about segments that we want to get rid of and add and change.
Yeah. We said facts are staying in. Yeah. That was, yeah, dude, this is great. Now I don't have to do facts. Uh-huh. Yeah, we said, facts are staying in. Shut the fuck up. Yeah, that was, yeah, dude, this is great.
Now I don't have to do facts.
No.
OK.
Oh, maybe they just have to wear the mask anymore.
No.
No.
But it was like, if we go to a restaurant
and it's not a limited time thing and there's no press release,
we don't have to include it.
Yeah, but Camo Cup campaign is something
they take great pride in.
And maybe that's why the cops were there.
Where's the Camo Cup?
I won't want it.
Oh, I don't know.
I didn't see it there either. I wanted I wanted us to get cups for the office
We ended up getting styrofoam cups. We got the small ones. We gotta go to McDonald's. We gotta get Snoopy cups
We gotta get Snoopy cups. We're gonna get Snoopy cups. I'm gonna get Snoopy cups. I'm getting Snoopy cups
You're not gonna get anything because by the time you go there, it's gonna be over. Snoopy cups. Somehow
There's gonna be a one like one-of-a-kind
Normal cup and you're gonna get that one. How many are there spike it on the ground eight? I think sure that's there's like a grimace
There's the cat Hello Kitty. There's a baby. I want Hello Kitty. There's six. There's a other six
Are there I don't know I don't know what they are just why did you say know what they all are. Then why did you say eight? Because I think there's eight.
Because he thinks they are.
Yeah, I think there's eight.
You planked a plate.
I know you did.
We're six.
Sorry, Ned.
We're gonna get to our review, but first we need to know what you think in a segment we call...
About what you think the number of cups are at McDonald's.
In a segment we call You Review!
I'm just gonna say right now, fuck these people.
That's what I was gonna say.
I wanted to put a giant flavor.
It's either gonna be like some dumb thing happened
that has nothing to do with the food,
or it's gonna be like, this barbecue isn't even good.
I'm in Texas, you're a fucking idiot.
Fuck you, you're an idiot, I don't care about your grammar.
I'm from Kansas City and it sucks.
I know real barbecue, I know shut the fuck up. How about that? I just want to preface that before we read it. Well who wants to read the first one? I'll go first, but I'll say this, usually I'm all about like you, like just these people, yeah don't go in the restaurant, it's gonna be funny. I will defend this restaurant and Rudy's as a whole. Yeah. And also specifically this one. Yeah, I've been to this one a ton.
And there's two I go to the most.
The other one is next to Carrabba's.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And Rudy's used to have to be like a special occasion kind of
place because it was never close.
They always hit.
Specifically, these restaurants always hit.
These you review reviews are from the one we went to today
and from the other one up on 183 because, because the one,
the one stars were so thin.
Like if you look, the one stars are like, it's like five.
One, and it was like, okay,
I might have to spread this a little bit.
But here's the first one.
This one is from Bonsai B.
Like the plant.

Hey, probably a big Rudy fan
Cool. Hey, probably a big Rudy fan.
That's one of Rudy's guys.
One of the restaurants that used to be there-
Bonsai and Rudy G are dripping black sludge together.
One of the restaurants that used to be there was called Bonsai Sushi.
It was a good restaurant.
And now this person is named Bonsai.
Oh, wow.
I'm just saying conspiracy.
You're fired.
Are you going to go to the next one? I'll read the next two.
Okay, go for it.
Yeah, yeah, go for it.
It's just as nonsensical.
It's compact.
I looked down and read the whole thing.
This is from A.N.
Mid at best, they used to be better.
No, no, no.
Try again, try again.
Oh, wait, hang on.
Oh, sorry.
I got too focused on they didn't write write used on used but also missed a word

Yeah, this is the last one.
We've established two fucking idiots.
Uh huh.
Okay.
Are you ready to establish a third?
And now, here's...
Well, remember what you said at the beginning.
I know, and then here's the third one.
Hey, at least there's a disclaimer right at the beginning.
Yup!
James G says,
This review has nothing to do with the food.
This is more of a safety and public service announcement.
My car was broken into at this location on Wednesday at 2.40 PM, June 8, 2022.
That's broad daylight at a busy place.
I parked in the back directly across from the back door in front of the old K&M corporate office.
I only went in to use the restroom and estimate I was inside for about a minute and a half.
Didn't wash your hands.
Came back out to a broken rear window and all my stuff stolen.
I immediately went inside to see if they had cameras and talk to a manager.
They were less than helpful.
Dot, dot, dot.
Wouldn't let me see the video for quote, liability reasons and even hesitated to tell me the
type and color of the vehicle.
They did advise me to file a police report.
Thanks for that.
I own a convenience store with 36 cameras and provide video playback and recording to anyone
that asks. I'm not worried about liability. You were not inside for 90 seconds. No, you weren't.
And also, file a police report and let the cops look at the video. Yeah, that's helpful. There's
like 30 cops there. Go inside and talk to the police force. They're not the video. File a... That's helpful. There's like 30 cops there.
Go inside and talk to the police force.
Not the manager.
They're all there.
There's every type of cop you can want.
Detective, state trooper, meter maid.
You get the entire force and you can find them for parking over the limit.
Which...
Do you know which Rudy's that was?
I think the 183.
Because I mean, either one is just like, it's a fine area. there's nothing like to put like a public like watch out. Yeah, it's just it's I mean, it's a parking lot. Yes like
Cars get broken into it happens. Yeah, it's certainly not like a don't go there, right?
Don't go there because if it does happen they won't help you. Yeah, they won't let you see their video
go there because if it does happen they won't help you. Yeah they won't let you see their videos.
They won't show me a civilian and let me solve my case. Yeah but he has a convenience store with 36 cameras. And I let anyone do anything. Yeah you come in I'll be damned. People ask for
people ask for the bathroom footage all the time and I leave them alone with tissues and they can
lock the door. Now I say I say I would never show you that and then turn the monitor around and walk away.
These reviews suck.
Yeah, I'm really happy about this.
Yeah, I'm happy too.
It's like nobody complained about this.
There was not an area same person to be found here going like, hey like hey look I'm a pretty normal person. This wasn't good. I don't know. I don't know a and was pretty
Pretty normal. Yeah, I done
Bass they used to better. I'm sure they I done
What did your kid write this I
Love that before we did the review.
They typed that up and went,
sick.
I mean, get that up there and do something about it.
Got him.
Rudy, trip black sludge about this.
I love that before we started the review,
you just, you laid out, here's what this is going to be,
and then beat for beat.
Yeah.
Exactly what it was.
It's too good.
The restaurant's too good.
Right, you can't say it. It's too good. You gotta find things. It's too good. Yep. So we went to Rudy's. We got the jumbo smoked potato. We got a pound and a half of brisket. We got a half of the jalapeno and cheddar sausage. We all got drinks in styrofoam cups. Very weird. Um, but fine. I got a banana pudding. Got a banana pudding. Saved it. He's gonna bring it home. It's in the fridge. It's in the fridge.
It's staying nice and cool.
Yup.
I'm fucked up.
You got some cheese.
I did get some cheese.
We got Pico's Pete.
What?
I like cheese.
I like cheese with my brisket.
I get it.
Yeah.
I get it.
And when you make the sandwich,
you gotta have some cheese on it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It is interesting because this was a thing I'd never experienced
because until I came here and with Rudy's
is because it's like a wedge of cheddar cheese it's not a slice you just you grab it
from like the cold section it's like it's like saran wrap yeah like pressed
yeah so the way the way you eat it because it's weird to just put a block
of cheese that's too small is you bite the sandwich and then you bite the cheese
that's and I go I've learned the same thing.
That's how I learned it?
What's crazy to me is, and you were like, oh, I didn't like cheese, and left it at that,
and that's fair.
Uh-huh.
The number of people, that are from here or live here, go, you get cheese?
I'm like, it's not that crazy.
They sell it!
It's also...
They sell the fucking giant...
I didn't go, you know, I'm Nick, let me reach into my cheese bag right like the fact that it blows like blows my mind
Right it's not like they put it there to be like oh this guy's buying the cheese
They have this was a test and you failed right there's out and coleslaw and pudding and onions and pickles are like
cheese
That's so weird. We talked about it. Hey, I don't hate them, but I hate salt like doesn't have cheese
Yeah, we walk you we talked about it with uh,'t hate them, but I hate Salt Lake doesn't have cheese.
Fuck you!
We talked about it with Dicky's.
Dicky's BBQ.
They have a big block of cheese that you cut into.
Cheese is integral to the Texas BBQ experience.
The Rudy Cheese is convenient.
I will say though,
The annoying part is, before I even make my sandwich,
I put down, first thing I do is open the cheese,
pull it out, eat the first sandwich.
If I usually get at least two pieces of cheese,
I make the second sandwich, I'm fucked.
Cause my hands are so, you're so slipping and sliding.
You gotta open it.
You gotta open both.
I was sitting there, I was cutting it with a knife.
To get the second package of cheese.
I did not see that, you were slick.
I'm too greasy.
I guarantee, my parents are coming into town and I guarantee I go to see that. To get the second package of cheese. I did not see that, you were slick. I'm too greasy. I guarantee, my parents are coming into town
and I guarantee I go to Rudy's.
Yeah.
Because they've been here a bunch of times
and we've been to a bunch of different barbecue places
and when it's like, hey, let's get barbecue,
my parents will specifically go, oh, let's go to Rudy's.
There's, I want barbecue and it's an event
and it's what you do.
Yeah, and there's like, oh, it's the first time here
and I gotta see.
Even if it's not, you're just like,
oh, let's do something, we can do it.
And then there's, I want to eat barbecue.
I don't wanna fuck around.
I don't wanna wait.
I don't wanna drive far.
You go to Rudy's and you leave.
It's a fun way to walk through the line
and grab the beer and it's great.
It's a great intro to Texas barbecue as a concept
because they do everything.
Well, it's like, I didn't know.
The eating experience and the bread,
they'll just throw the bread on there.
And also as an intro of a lot of places,
they do have sandwiches,
but everyone orders by the pound and shit.
And if you don't know, you're like,
how much do you want?
And you go, I don't know.
I don't generally eat my food by pound.
Like you're walking into Donald's,
and granted it's like quarter pounder,
but it's like, two and a half pound sandwich.
Yes, yeah.
So you can grossly under or over order.
And again, they're more than happy and they're dude, like every employee
there is always like on top of their shit where they're like, oh, this is how we do
this. Or if they're like, I have heard next to me in line so many times, people go,
well, how much is like like one person?
And they're like, ah, usually about like depending on how hungry you are, like
quarter pound, like half a pound, you know, depending like how big you,
you can either make two quarter pound sandwiches
or one big one or whatever.
That's why I was like, in a way we're getting a pound
with this guy.
Yeah.
We were a pound and a half.
That guy's a pound and a half.
It's a great intro place for sure.
I didn't know about like moist brisket and all that stuff.
Like it's just not a thing that I ever had.
I had never had brisket in my life.
Yeah, right. Like, yeah. And then you, and then you have this this and you go like oh, I know what I like. It's the best.
Yeah, it's fucking great. It's what it's what they do here. Yeah, so now there's there's regular
Which they used to call cutters choice. Yes, it's just called right. It's just brisket. It is. Yeah boys
And then there's lean right if you're like I don't want super greasy and then you get regular wasn't there extra moist at one point
Do they get rid of extra money? I think it's just moist. Okay. Yes, it did say that
Yeah to me the most there was three there was like regular moist or extra moist. Yeah and lean
I get not getting extra moist because it's real greasy. Yes, right if you get lean get something else
Why are you coming here? Why are you coming here?
It's Nick's dad. Yep. I'm just saying it's just like that's crazy Get something else. Why are you coming here? Why are you coming here?
It's Nick's dad. Yep.
I'm just saying.
It's just like,
That's crazy.
Crazy.
That's like, coming!
Like the juice and the flavor.
And we were talking about it.
We don't really like, I don't like fat on steaks.
You don't like fat on steaks.
We don't.
We kind of all land on that.
But like, that's not what the brisket fatty is.
The extra moist fatty brisket is not like fat.
It's fucking awesome.
Mm-hmm.
There you go.
So good.
So, review for Rudy's.
What do you think, Jordan?
Rudy's is a Texas staple.
Pride and joy of Austin.
It's a Texas staple and it's stretching out.
And I'm like, every time someone's like,
oh Rudy's is opening whatever,
I'm like, you're fucking in for it.
Yeah, like I'm so happy for the other states
that are getting ready.
Right?
Because they're shit like Whataburger or whatever,
and it's like, it's fine.
It's a burger.
Well, I think- Rudy's is right.
Hold your fucking head for it.
It's gonna be great.
I think it's because it's privately owned still.
And I think that has a lot to do with it.
A lot of these places get sold to equity firms
and then they just get fucked.
And then they start franchising
and it's hard to maintain the standards. This lot of these places get sold to equity firms and then they just get fucked. And they start franchising and like it's hard to like maintain the standards.
This is slow and they are expanding. I mean there's like a bunch of locations. Good for
them. Awesome. I hope they keep doing it and I hope they can continue to be successful
without dipping quality because their quality is good.
And Rudy's, it doesn't miss. I don't, it's been a long time since I had been to one and
it was good to go back. And I need to put it back in my rotation of absolutely. Yeah
But like again never disappointed with it
The baked potato I'd say you don't need this thing unless you want to try something fun
Yeah, and split it with some people like the barbecues tried and true the baked potatoes good. It was very good
It's a it's a monster. It's it's it's like pound and that's an underestimate. It's like a comical food item
Yes, but but not in a flavor way. You know, they go hand-in-hand. Yeah, this thing's stupid and it tastes like shit
Yeah, it's like like genetically engineered
But it's fucking good, it's so big it's so. Rudy's is a 95% restaurant.
Wow, 95.
It's, I'm thinking the same thing.
And it's like, I know Franklin, you know, is better or,
or, you know, it can be, right?
Cause some place, even the best barbecue ever is like,
oh, the brisket's the best ever.
And their sausage is okay.
That still happens.
Like no one has everything the last.
And so like, I hesitate to give it a super high score because I know that shit exists, but also I don't care.
Mhm.
And it's almost, it has nothing to do with the food, but it almost detracts points because it's a nightmare.
Yeah.
Franklin can be a hundred. Cool, I'll never go there. I'll never eat it. I'll never wait in line.
If somebody else gets it and I'm near them, and I get some, yeah.
And I go, wow, this is good.
But even then, it's like, it got packed and transported.
It produces like, got my food, ate my food, nice and hot,
whatever, 97%.
97, all right.
It's an average score of 96.
You say this is the highest rated thing
I've ever seen on this show.
Really diving into it.
And it's so fucking deserved.
There's no bias.

Yep. Okay, we're back. Nick had to fix our audio. He's about to die.
