This is a rather unassuming place. Its menu is very simple: chicken, briskets, turkey, wings and ribs. On our first visit, we had their ribs. The smokers outside gave us faith in their authenticity that they're smoked with real wood and not liquid smoke. The ordering process is fairly simple. You walk up, you look at the menu, and order at the counter. Your order is prepared right there with disposable plates. Long story short, the food is fabulous. I had a small rib plate with slaw and beans. My friend had thr half chicken with slaw and beans also. My ribs were tender and meaty. My friend enjoyed the chicken to the point that he was sucking on the bones. The meals came with sides of their sauce. It was delicious. I'm a Carolina girl so I love vinegar based sauces ans this sauce while not really Carolina has enough of a bite that I didnt feel lost. The cole slaw is great and provided a good balance with the meat. The beans were saucy and not too sweet. I hate it when beans are made to taste like candy. These are awesome. I'm a driver and the an asset is the truck parking. We just stooped for the food this visit but if I need a place to take a break I know I can be well fed here. In conclusion this place has my seal of approval. read more

I truly enjoyed my unexpected visit to Ole Rudys BBQ. My sister and I were on a road trip down to Florida from Nashville. The BBQ pork was well smoked (a little dry but once I added my sauce was great). The fries were made to order! Red velvet cake was moist and decadent. Wings could have gone a little longer for me. read more

Excellent beef barbecue and wonderful HOMEMADE sides. Great sauce and free trucker parking

We saw the reviews for 'Ole Rudy's BBQ' on yelp as we were driving down the freeway at dinner time. Went in to make a fast stop & had great brisket sandwiches! Really good & his BBQ Sauce is a tiny spicy & tiny sweet--just RIGHT!!!! Yes, you get your food at the trailer-it's BBQ folks!!! However, there's a covered space to eat outdoors & another air conditioned enclosed area with a TV to be indoors. Another plus was the bathrooms were clean! Rudy was outside & was a nice talkative guy. Stop by & say Savannah says hi! read more

Too expensive for the tiny sandwich you can get here. Pork is not near fresh. I tried this place twice wanting to like it since I live down the road but it is a rip off. Only thing this place has going for it is parking for big trucks. read more

This place is awesome! Just right off of I-75 at exit 201 next to the Speedco and Flying J truck stop with lots of truck parking. The BBQ ribs and turkey ribs are my favorite. I also like the Brisket but the Brunswick Stew is the real deal. I bought some BBQ sauce to take home and a couple of t-shirts for the kids. I will definitely be going back. Really nice place! ***Update*** just went again today 07/27/15 this place is amazing read more

Very good bbq chicken!! We stopped here on our way to Florida. The chicken was very delicious and moist. I will definitely come back. Please stop here you won't be disappointed. read more

The food at this place is over priced and mediocre at best. They cater to truck drivers because they can park for free on their lot-if they spend 10.00. The only good thing is they stay open very late. For the quality of the food, there is absolutely no value for your money, read more

The food was some of the best BBQ i've had in the south. I got the wings and ribs, and though I'll agree that the price was a bit high ($22.95 for ribs, wings, and two 8oz sides), the taste was well worth it. The coleslaw was a bit bland but the baked beans were cooked really well. The wings and ribs were prepared masterfully and I'd definitely make this place a repeat visit if it were a chain. My one complaint was the lack of southern hospitality by the workers who seemed almost pestered by me wanting to order food. Other than that, great place! read more

Had beef brisket 80% fat, very greasy, sm rib plate was 2 tiny ribs. Not worth the $. pork sandwich was better value. Will not be going back. read more

This place is ok .. the food isn't top quality but it's not as bad as some other places . The price is a little bit on the high side but it's manged . It's has a big parking spot for trucks but you have to buy 15.00 worth of food or 10.00 donation to park for the night .I give this place 4 stars because thuere staff are sweet hearts .. read more

Yum! Delicious BBQ pork! Fries and cole slaw were good and the barbecue sauce is outstanding! Looking forward to another stop here!

Service was good, but BBQ was very disappointing!!!! I'm almost certain it made my Trucker Boyfriend very sick, we visited after a CB Announcement and was hoping to get good food, brisket was thin and undercooked, chicken was dry and it wasn't cheap by any means.....PASS THIS PLACE UP!!! read more

Food is awesome, service lacks a bit. I find them to be a bit on the high side but the food makes up for it. Love love love the brisket. Usually do the 4 meat tray and share with my kids, plenty to go around and a steak for the price and quality of the good served. read more

This is great bbq! It's in a trailer and it might seem like an odd location but it is so worth it. The prices are a little high but it is worth the money. The pork sandwich is good but not worth the money. Instead get the rib sandwich or a rib plate. The ribs are amazing alone but the sauce makes it so much better. Highly recommend read more

Saw this place on the at to make an application call at Jordan Forest in Barnesville. I figured I'd stop by afterwards since I hadn't eaten lunch yet. After ordering a pulled pork sandwich with fries and sweet tea, I waited several minutes for my order as there we a few guys ahead of me. I paid $12 and tipped a $1 to the Mexican lady in the window. I got my bag of Food and sweet tea and drove off only to find out I did not have pulled pork, I had brisket and it was fatty. I also did not have fries, I had potato salad and baked beans, neither of which I ordered. Not a great experience and will not be back. Check you orders folks, I think a language barrier at the ordering window was the culprit. read more

Loved it! This was a perfect place for us while traveling from Atlanta to south GA. We always travel with our very large Doberman and when the weather turns warm it gets hard to find a non-fast food place to eat. We found Ole Rudy's through Yelp and it was just what we were looking for! Outdoor seating in a pleasantly shaded area so our dog was able to be with us. The food was AMAZING! We tried BBQ pork and the Turkey Ribs. Both were great! We will definitely be stopping here again! read more

Great authentic BBQ, everything I've ever ordered was great, from the chicken to the Rib Tips. The service is also a 5 star.

Saw the good reviews and stopped. First of all, the barbecue is ok....but it's super expensive for what you get. On top of that, it's a food truck and inside there are flies flying around everywhere. I like turkey ribs so got the turkey rib sandwich. BE AWARE.... it may look like a sandwich, but you will break a tooth if you dive right in. They leave the large bones in the sandwich!!!! You have to open the sandwich and debone it yourself. It's ridiculous. If you want to spend more for no ambiance and food you can get at other BBQ places up the road at any one of the places and you don't mind devoting your own sandwich then eat here...otherwise don't bother stopping. read more

Food was good big portions, didn't finish it all the next day I went to eat it the rib tips had a funny white and green line through the meat so I threw it away. read more

Every time I travel through GA, I manage to stop in for the ribs. There is outdoor seating and also enclosed seating if you would like to eat here, but I usaully pick it up and go. Last time I was there, Rudy came out shook my hand and thanked me for coming back, he's a nice guy and is real passionate about putting out good bbq. I ordered a whole rack of ribs and Rudy did not let me down. These Ribs were tender and full of flavour, just falling off the bone. I cant stand when you go to some of these so called BBQ places and you're fighting to get the meat off the bone. I usaully eat my ribs dry, but I tried his homemade bbq sauce and I must say, excellent! I used all of it and was actually looking for more when it was done, so that says alot. This is my Goto BBQ spot whenever I'm in GA........ Yelp on read more

This was hands down the best bbq I have ever had. What makes it even better is we got it sry take out and didn't eat for a bit after getting our food. I can only wish to go back and actually sit at the restaurant and eat. read more

Looked this up on yelp on a family trip to Florida from Michigan--missed it on the way down, but made sure to try it on the way back. As soon as we pulled in I could tell this was a go-to place as there many tractor-trailer trucks in the massive parking lot and other autos. The others waiting for their food were very positive about Ole Rudy's. I only had the ribs and bought a bottle of Rudy's BBQ sauce sight untasted. My wife fed me the ribs and slaw on the road as I drove. The ribs were smoked nicely, not overly flavorful with any spices. Here the ribs come dry with the BBQ sauce on side (as opposed to be covered in BBQ sauce as in other regions). I think they just smoke the ribs with no rub on it (perhaps that is the style in GA). It was tasty, though it was a bit greasy. I like the BBQ sauce, which has a vinegar taste and not too sweet like BBQ sauces I have had more north. Though I am partial to more sweet BBQ sauces. The coleslaw was excellent. They serve their meal with a couple of pieces of white bread, a nice regional touch. Overall, I rate what I had at 3.5 stars. The service was great. I really like the big cup of sweet tea I had with my meal. I will stop here again to try some brisket and the other BBQ offerings if we pass by. read more

The server had an awful cold, no gloves, and the bar b q was full of slimy fat and gristle. The through it in the trash. Yuck

Terrific smoked brisket and chicken and beans.... excellent roadside stop right off route 75.... Very nice staff ....outdoor eating...

Beef brisket was melt in your mouth, potato salad was so on point, baked beans and BBQ sauce was absolutely delicious! I def give this place a 5 star and a MUST STOP for truck driver. Wide open parking lot with over night parking. This place is def up there on too notch BBQ! Ask for Rudy he's the man! read more

This place is fantastic. The food is always 1st rate, the customer service is outstanding and the atmosphere is friendly and down home. We tell people about Rudy's BBQ from Florida / Georgia to Washington State. Love this place !!!!!! read more

We really enjoyed our dinner tonight! I had the bbq sandwich withy sweet potato fries!! Great bbq and very friendly!

This place is right off I-75 and the BBQ is delicious!! The staff is friendly and it hits the spot if you're looking to eat while you're on the go.. Enjoy! read more

The food was good and it filled me up. They had both inside and outside seating. And if your a truck driver they have truck parking.

Fantastic! If you're in the mood for BBQ then this is the spot to go! Stopped on the way to Macon Georgia and had some incredible pulled pork with all the fixings (slaw and baked beans!) try the sauce, it's truly to die for so I left with a bottle of that too! tried the Brunswick stew which was also delicious. Only wish I had more room in my stomach-come hungry!! Will definitely duo in again my next visit!!! read more

Great place to eat! Friendly service, clean place and the food was fantastic! We will be back next time we pass through. Thank you!

One of the best bbq I have ever tried, definitely worth paying a visit if you're crazing some good bbq.

Clean place and clean bathrooms. The food was delicious and just the way I like my bbq. The service was friendly. Will definitely stop again when in the area!! Yum! Yum! read more

Great Bar B Q!!! If you are traveling down 75 South or ever in the high falls area. Give Rudys a try!

Really good BBQ and homestyle Brunswick stew. Everything is cooked just like a Southern hunting camp. Spices and seasonings are just right - strong enough to be Southern, yet never overpowering the meat. Sides and desserts are available. Dining is al Fresno in a protected pavilon. Tons of parking. The line of parked semis who come from all over the country to sample the meals speaks volumes and it all comes down to....this is really good stuff!! This is a family restaurant with the family all helping out. Very clean and nice. read more

Food was not good at all. Potato salad tasted like eggs . Baked beans tasted like bushs beans straight out the can . The cashier seemed tired and ready to go. read more

I spent $23 on a meal didn't cost 15 in Texas. The sign said double portions but apparently They think that means to meats. 2 ribs, and some weak thin brisket for 23$ I don't recommend you eat here ever. read more

We stopped at the flying j truck in Jackson, GA and we passed right by this place on our way to get gas but on our way out we stopped and just fell in love with Ole Rudy's BBQ. We had ribs and when I tell you they were tender they were falling off the bone. This is one of those places that you would think was good but boy was we wrong. It was excellent and we will be coming back again. read more

I have always gone to Buckners and passed right by Ole Rudy's, but this time I stopped for lunch. I was not disappointed the wings were good. They had great smoky taste, pulled pork had good taste and their sauce was a sweet original that complemented their meats well. The stew was ok, but I am a hard one to satisfy. I added a little more pork and some sauce and it was ready for my consumption. read more
