In the 1800's, Max Aue developed the small community of Leon Springs, in the Texas Hill Country outside of San Antonio. In 1929, Max's son, Rudolph, opened a gas station, garage and grocery store. In 1989, Bar-B-Q was added to the Country Store and Rudy's "Country Store" and Bar-B-Q, was founded. Today, Rudy's "Country Store" and Bar-B-Q, has expanded throughout the southwest with the same original recipes that made Rudy's Leon Springs famous
