Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 7.5 to 8/10 and Maybe. Cool spot in the burbs, but nothing good enough to warrant a special trip, besides maybe the pulled pork. Can’t say I need to come back, but worth a stop if you’re in the area, as that part of town has limited BBQ options available. Would recommend coming during a nice weather day to take advantage of the outdoor seating and views of the mountains

Interior Description: Small interior with only 4 indoor eating spots. Has a bunch of outdoor seating, though, with picnic tables wrapping around the entire building. Had good music and blues playing. Very much gives off low-key and old-school BBQ vibes

Pro Tip: Stick with the pulled pork

Brisket

0/10 Ranking: 7.5 to 8/10

Seasoning: Unsure, but minimal

Description: They keep the point and flat together, then soak it in an au jus sauce and chop it. The brisket was juicy, but was also slightly overcooked. With the soaking, it leaves the bark without any crunch, but the seasoning is reasonably good, but nothing special at all. Little smoke flavor coming through, and reminds me more of beef shoulder than of solid brisket. Some good pepper flavor on one of the few bark pieces that weren’t soft

Pulled Pork

0/10 Ranking: 8.5 to 9/10

Seasoning: Unsure

Description: Good combination of crunchy and juicy meat pieces. Had a smoky and tasty exterior skin that ran through the pork. Didn’t need any sauce for it. Easily a Top 10, but probably a Top 5 pulled pork in Colorado. If a saucier pulled pork is desired, the mild BBQ sauce is the way to go, but the sauce is very sweet, and too much can overtake the meat. Would get again

Pulled Chicken

0/10 Ranking: 7.5 to 8/10

Seasoning: Unsure

Description: Really good smoke flavor coming through the chicken, but that’s where the positives end. The chicken was slightly overcooked with minimal exterior seasoning. That said, one of the more flavorful chicken pieces in Colorado, but still nothing over the top. Smoke tasted like hickory
