Have you heard the news? Colorado Springs (or more specifically, Old Colorado City) is getting a real barbecue straight out of the heart of Texas – according to the Colorado Springs Business Journal, Rudy’s Bar-B-Q is coming to town!
When we first saw a Rudy’s Bar-B-Q location in Texas, it seemed a bit odd. The combination of gas stations + restaurants doesn’t usually make for spectacular food, but in this case, the combination works. It’s hugely popular in central Texas, and in recent years has expanded to have locations in New Mexico and Oklahoma.
The Rudy’s in Old Colorado City will be joining two other popular barbecue spots in that part of town: Front Range Barbecue and Firehouse Barbecue. Rudy’s is slated to open in late spring or early summer of 2010.
Do you have a favorite barbecue joint in Colorado Springs? We’d love to hear in the comments!

Rudy’s is real barbecue. Can’t wait.
I love Rudy’s and can’t wait for them to get here. Used to eat there a lot when I lived in Austin. Have missed their bbq since moving to the springs.
What’s the status of Rudy’s opening in the Springs? I don’t think I can hold out much longer! Used to eat the one in Leon Springs, TX, ALL the time when I lived in San Antonio.
I just ate there for the first time today…I have to say,” It sure was some tasty BBQ!” Not the best in town though. Try Phat Hatties. I am a BBQ fanatic. Hatties has the best in town by far!
