The beans hit for Me, especially with the hot peppers from the condiment bar. There are few things I like more the garnish and condoments, and Rudy's had a great selection. 41 year old me doesn't handle the heat as well as I used to, but sweet tea helped.

So being in Colorado Springs, Rudy's was calling. Ordered half pound of moist brisket, 1/4 lb pulled pork, Cole slaw, corn on the cob, banana pudding, and peach cobbler. The order taker was very nice and polite and ordering was quick and easy. There was a bar with pickles, onions, jalapeños, etc. regular and sissy sauce at the table(you don't need it on the brisket). The Cole slaw..well it was Cole slaw. My wife loved the corn on the cob. The pulled pork was tender and flavorful. The brisket was just amazing. Juicy, tender without being mushy, and a deep Smokey flavor. And the bark...my lord....so delicious. I was very very happy. Def in a moist brisket coma afterwards. Only disappointment was the deserts. Not very good. Wife did not like the banana pudding and the cobbler crust had zero crunch..like it was soft. I probably would not order that again. But overall super happy! You guys ever want to put one in Los Angeles or OC? Other out of states chains have done well...notably Portillos (Chicago based beef sandwich chain) in Buena Park. You'd blow everyone else out of the water(though I haven't tried Heritage in South OC).

Service was spectacular, lots of smart young ladies running the show. They checked on us several times while we were at the table enjoying our food.

Pleasantly Surprised by Peak View BBQ…read more We'd read mixed reviews about Peak View BBQ, but it was definitely a win for us at lunch today. My husband had the brisket plate, and I went with the pork ribs. Both were very tender and flavorful--though we wouldn't have minded a bit more smoky flavor. The coleslaw and beans were average, but nothing off-putting like some reviews suggested. They also have a great taproom with a wide beer selection, which is a nice bonus if you're looking to relax with a drink. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the views from the windows were absolutely beautiful. Overall, a great lunch spot we'd happily visit again.

Starting with the positives, the tasting, the food, the catering staff onsite during my wedding,…read moreand Vicky (who no longer works there) were all great. We used to buffalo gals for our wedding and food was great. Just a few points of miscommunication that caused a bit of unnecessary stress on my wedding day is why the loss of a stars. We were told that the one guest who was celiac and one guest who was vegetarian were going to have a plated meal to prevent risk of cross contamination and would ensure they had their food. We were told not to stress as they would be plated and given to the guests as they were given the guests names and could work with the seating chart. I noticed that the guest who was vegetarian was only eating sides so I had asked and she said she didn't know there was a separate meal. the celiac guest who luckily got to go through the buffet first did not have issues as she did get to go first but could've caused severe outcomes for her if she did have cross contamination. After talking with catering staff onsite they said they were told that the guest has to ask for it which was complete opposite of what was originally communicated, and they were deeply sorry. So just miscommunication with one that actually could've caused permanent harm if she had ingested gluten. We also paid an additional fee for grilling to be onsite, due to fire ban that was unable to occur. We understand that is not within our control but no where in the contract does it say that it is not refundable, so they just held onto that fee even though they didn't provide the service. When asked about the refund I was told the fee was for the tri-tip to be cooked on a specific grill but nowhere does that say that in our contract and was NEVER communicated - because if it was not onsite we were told the way it was cooked was the same - we thought we really were just paying for the experience of it being onsite. So biggest tip for anyone going through them is get everything in writing with clear communication and clarification, because without that they don't care to help.

Our favorite local BBQ spot! Truly some of the best BBQ you can get in Colorado. We recently used…read morethem to cater our wedding, and the food was absolutely delicious. The owners are fantastic and were wonderful to work with when I placed & picked up our catering order. The only downside was the customer service from the staff working the counter. It took four phone calls over several days to finally connect with someone who could help me place the order, despite being told multiple times that someone would call me back. Unfortunately, the interactions I did have with the counter staff, both over the phone and when picking up our catering order, were also pretty unfriendly. If the customer service at the counter matched the quality of the food and the service from the owners, this place would truly be unstoppable. That said, we'll absolutely continue coming back, the BBQ is fantastic, and the owners' customer service more than makes up for where the rest of the team is lacking.

First off, the interior is really fun and interesting. I sat at the bar. The selection of small batch locally made beer was impressive. I ended up getting an orange blossom beer that was suggested by the bartender. So good!! I wasn't very hungry so they let me order the child's plate and I got brisket. The server suggested I try the red beans and rice. I was a little skeptical because I've spent a lot of time in New Orleans, and had some of the best. I was so impressed, I almost wished that I had just ordered a bowl of beans and rice. The brisket was really tender as well. Very friendly service and food appeared in minutes after I ordered. Really great place. .

The smell of smoked meat hit me the second I stepped inside, and I knew I was in for a good time. I grabbed a seat on the patio, where string lights twinkled and a local band was warming up. The brisket came out tender with a perfect bark, and the pulled pork melted like it had something to prove. The burnt ends were the real show-off, though--crispy, smoky little bites of joy. Even the sides had personality, especially the spicy slaw that snuck up on me. Service was friendly and easygoing, like everyone there was happy just to be surrounded by barbecue and good vibes. Parking was a little tight, and there was a short wait, but between the music and the beer list, I didn't mind a bit. It wasn't flawless, but it was flavorful, fun, and full of character--just the kind of place that makes you want to kick back, loosen your belt, and stay a while. Solid four stars and a full stomach to prove it.

However today was the first time we decided to come during the summer. It's just too busy with tourists in the summer. The seating is all outside which I didn't think would be good. We like to come during the offseason when there are less tourists. All the seats are indoors and quite cramped but cozy. So today we decided to see if there was a wait. Yes there was but only about 20 minutes. Turns out the outdoor seating is great, almost like one of those rainforest restaurants except this is all natural. The food was great as always. The staff was comprised of the normal folks who are here in the winter plus a few people that I have never seen before. They all busted their butts to make sure it was a good experience. Keep in mind this is a very small town with limited resources. I'm extremely impressed with the level of service we received. To top it all off there was a guy there with his guitar named Phil Volan. Phil added another level of ambiance that I didn't expect. If you are planning on a visit be prepared for a wait but you should have a memorable time.
