Pit Fiend Barbecue – Round 2
Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 9/10 and Yes. Ended up being a lunch stop for my 36th birthday this year, and it didn’t disappoint. A top 3 BBQ spot in Colorado, that is 100% worth the visit and has delivered every time I’ve gone. As Mike, Juan, & Esteban learned the Texas…
Jabo’s Bar-Be-Q
Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 7/10 and No. Located down in Greenwood Village, Jabo’s was one that was recommended to me heavily on a Reddit thread a few months ago, so I wanted to make a point of trying them out. Sitting in a small strip mall, there’s not a ton of…
Smokin’ Yards BBQ – Round 2
Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 8.25 to 8.5/10 and Yes. This is the original location, with a second located in Denver. Situated right off the exit for Idaho Springs, Smokin’ Yards is a nice little pit stop either going to or coming back from the mountains. Situated along Clear Creek and the…
Switchback Smokehouse – Round 2
Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 8.75/10 and Yes. This was the second time we came here, following a nice morning hike with the dogs.

Busey Brews Smokehouse & Brewery
Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 8 to 8.25/10 and Yes. Situated right in the heart of downtown Nederland, this is a unique spot that was a brewery first and has added a smokehouse option to it. While the beers may have been the original focus, the barbecue also delivers and making it…
Boudreauxs BBQ

Wayne’s Smoke Shack – Round 2
Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 8.25 to 8.5/10 and Yes. Worth a stop, but not the best in Colorado in anything outside of maybe their garlic mashed potatoes. Wayne’s is located out in a nice suburban strip mall, nestled between Boulder and Denver in the town of Superior, and is open only…
Saucy’s Southern BBQ & Cuisine
Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 8 to 8.25/10 and Yes. Sitting right in the heart of Denver University, you walk in and are immediately greeted by a friendly staff. You order at the counter, with 3 options for combo plates, or you can grab individual meats and sides. As a heads up,…
The Joint
Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 8.75/10 and Yes. Located over in the Bywater neighborhood, you are off the typical beaten Bourbon Street/French Quarter path, but are also surrounded by several great restaurants and bars in the area. Walking up to the building, you come across the smell of oak in the air…
Sugarfire Smoke House
Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 7.75 to 8/10. Maybe. Rolling in, I had my hesitations about the place, based on its location in a suburban planned strip mall development, but also with it being a chain from out of state, as this is 1 of 12. That said, when I walked in…
