D.B.A. Barbecue Competitors

Founded in 1992 in Tulsa, Oklahoma, RibCrib’s modest beginnings began with a smoker, a retrofitted old house, and founder Bret Chandler’s desire to cook the best hickory-smoked meats and home-style sides. Since that modest start, RibCrib remains deeply rooted in the local culture where we operate our restaurants. We’re 21st century ‘cue that pays homage to barbecue’s roots, but we’re also not afraid to embrace new definitions, new dishes and new personalities that have emerged. Our authentic, smoked kissed barbecue is the real deal and our restaurants are built upon a family of franchise operators who share the same passion for generously serving food and their communities. We’re interpreters of classical styles and makers of new ones. We’re complex and simple at the same time. Today, RibCrib has spread to eight states and more than 60 full service and fast casual locations. Backed by a strong culture and a management team determined to knit together a new story that depends less on old stereotypes and antiquated business models and more on a new golden era of barbecue that showcases restaurant profitability and efficient operations – RibCrib is looking for future restaurant owners that can emulate those same values. Reach out today for more information.

Just north of San Antonio, at the edge of the Texas Hill Country, sits the small community of Leon Springs. Founded in the 1800s by Max Aue, Leon Spring's cityscape changed when Max's son, Rudolph, opened a one-stop gas station, garage, and grocery store. Bar-B-Q was added to the operation in 1989, and Rudy's "Country Store" and Bar-B-Q has been serving up tasty food ever since. The same original recipes that built Rudy's Leon Springs' reputation are now available throughout the Southwest. Our pits are 100% wood fired with oak, a slower burning wood than the mesquite used by others. Along with time and oak, we cook with a dry spice that ensures each plate of Rudy's Bar-B-Q is perfectly ready for you. Apply some of our famous " Sause" and dinner is served.
