I've been going to Rudy's since they opened, and at first they were pretty good, really they were. And I've been a regular customer, going at least 2-3 times a month. And sure I know that you can't always expect total 100% perfection on a regular basis, but they've been pretty consistent just the same. \n\nThough lately the quality hasn't been quite as good at all, in fact it's darn noticeable. Tough, dry brisket, fatty ribs and sometimes either dry or actually under cooked turkey.\n\nAlso I'm going to have to agree with several other fellow Yelpers that I have also noticed a bit of that \"Lighter Fluid\" after taste.\n\nAnother problem that I've always had is with their sides & sauces. Just read the ingredients on the coleslaw and BBQ sauces, totally loaded with preservatives and who knows what else, icky.\n\nThey have opened another location in Goodyear, so I think that they took their 'A' team with them over there and have tried filling the gaps in Chandler with complete rookies that are not only poorly trained but downright dumb. Case in point I recently tried ordering a \"few ounces\" of different meats only to be asked if that was \"More or less than a 1/2 pound?\"... Are you kidding me? \n\nSo despite the fact that they're open 7 days, have a large menu, a great selection of bottled beers, plenty of parking and seating, I just don't think that I'll be going back, sorry Rudy's. :(
