A fried favorite done right

At 200 E Pecan St, Suite 1, Pflugerville, Rec’s Hushpuppie Heaven delivers exactly what the name promises. Guests rave about the catfish that stays crisp on the outside and tender inside, along with hushpuppies that come stuffed with fun, flavorful fillings like shrimp, jalapeño, and bacon. Every plate feels comforting but never boring, and the portions hit that just right sweet spot.

A chef with heart and history

Behind the menu is Chef Kenneth Rector Jr., whose love for cooking started at home and grew through culinary school and years in restaurants and catering. He opened Rec’s Catering in 2005 and later expanded the concept into Hushpuppie Heaven in 2013. His goal was simple: take familiar favorites and give them a fresh twist. That idea shows up in every bite, especially those signature stuffed hushpuppies that locals can’t stop talking about.

Friendly, clean, and easy to love

The space is clean and welcoming, and the team makes you feel at home from the moment you walk in. It’s the kind of local spot where kindness is part of the experience and regulars are greeted like friends. Whether you are stopping by for lunch or picking up dinner to go, Rec’s keeps people coming back with flavor and warmth.
