Smok Barbecue

/ Mitch Clark / Leave a comment

Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 9/10. Yes it is worth the visit. Great barbecue, reasonable prices, and good cheap beer options make it so you can’t go wrong coming here. While it feels weird saying, due to Smok being located in The Source and the slightly bougie atmosphere of the area, this may be the best overall barbecue joint in all of Colorado, even if it is missing the classic bbq vibe. No matter what style of barbecue is your favorite, you’ll be able to find a solid option when you venture into Smok with your group or just by yourself

1st Visit
2nd Visit

Date Visited: 3/1/2021 and 3/18/2021

Address: 3330 Brighton Blvd #202, Denver, CO 80216

Day of the Week: Monday and Thursday

Time of Day: 11:00 AM both times. Opens at 11:00AM

Owner: William “Bill” Espiricueta

Website: https://www.denversmok.com/

Number of Years in Business: Opened in August 2018

Number of People in Line: 0 both times, but people starting coming in within the first 5 minutes

Regional Style of BBQ: Owner is originally from Kansas City, but takes his inspiration from several bbq styles

Total Cost: $42 with tip. 1/4lb brisket, 1/4lb burnt ends, 1/4lb smoked turkey, 1/2lb pork spare ribs (2 of them), & mac & cheese. Also had 1 Shiner Bock and was given 1/4lb pulled pork for free as they originally forgot to bring it out to me

Type of Wood: White American Oak

Type of Smoker: Steel Box upright smoker with off-set smoke connector

Type of Seasoning: Salt, pepper, and a custom blend of seasonings for everything that isn’t the brisket or burnt ends

Best Dish: Brisket

Best Sauce: Original (It’s the only one they make)

Best Side: Mac & Cheese

Interior Description: Inside The Source, so it has an industrial concrete feel and vibe to it. With the upscale location and feeling to Smok, it’s a welcomed surprise to see the meat and beer prices not reflect the environment

Pro Tip: Don’t sleep on the turkey, but brisket is king here.

Brisket

0/10 Ranking: 9/10

Seasoning: Salt and pepper

Description: Smoky with good pepper flavoring running through it. I choice the lean option and even still, it had a perfect fat ring enclosing almost the entire piece. With a great blend of meat and fat to each bite, this may be the top brisket in Colorado. Zero sauce needed for enjoyment, each piece had a solid smoke ring running through it

Burnt Ends

0/10 Ranking: 8.5 to 9/10

Seasoning: Salt and pepper

Description: Good smoke and pepper flavor coming through, but they were slightly overdone. That said, they were extremely tasty and might have the most complex and deep flavored burnt ends in Colorado. Would order them again no question. For my second visit ordering them, I would say they were just as good as the 1st round, but the pieces were too big overall, leading them to being a little under seasoned. While they are a top 5 burnt end in the state, they need some more consistency before they take the number 1 spot

Pork Spare Ribs 

0/10 Ranking: 8.5 to 9/10

Seasoning: Salt, pepper, and bbq rub

Description: Juicy with a good blend of fat and meat in each rib. While they were slightly overcooked and not fall off the bone tender, they had great flavor and smokiness that carried through each bite. Would put them in the top 5 for ribs in the state

Pulled Pork

0/10 Ranking: 8.5/10

Seasoning: Salt, pepper, and a bbq in-house blend

Description: Juicy with some smoke a mild taste of smoke coming through each bite. Seems to be sprinkled with some seasoning post smoke session, but could use some more to increase the taste. While the pulled pork can be enjoyed by itself, it’s best with a little bit of their bbq sauce. Was also delicious when I reheated it for lunch the following day

Cheddar Sausage 

0/10 Ranking: 9/10

Description: Good blend of meat and fat, with the most cheese running through it of any sausage I’ve had. Good backend smoke flavor as well, with a slight kick of heat. Almost had an andouille sausage type flavoring to it

Turkey

0/10 Ranking: 8.5 to 9/10

Seasoning: Salt, pepper, and in-house blend of spices

Description: Solid flavor and smoke comes through the entire piece of turkey. The skin had an extra kick of flavor to it and the meat was juicy, but just ever so slightly over done. Would recommend though as a nice change up to the more traditional bbq items, especially as most places don’t have turkey on their menu

Sauces – Original

0/10 Ranking: 8.5 to 9/10

Description: Sweet and tangy with some slight smokiness to it. Had a thicker viscosity than most sauces and one of the better ones I’ve had anywhere

Sides – Mac & Cheese

0/10 Ranking: 8.5/10

Description: White cheddar and black pepper style. Creamy texture with a spiral pasta that was cooked perfectly al dente and had a good coating of pepper. Would order again

Sides – Creamed Corn

0/10 Ranking: 8.5/10

Description: Creamy sauce with crisp corn kernels, with a nice sprinkling of seasoning on top. Very enjoyable and flavorful dish and would order again

Sides – Baked Beans

0/10 Ranking: 9/10

Description: Black and kidney bean combo with onions, peppers, and pulled pork in it. Smoky essence with a good creamy texture, would recommend

Burns Original BBQ

/ Mitch Clark / Leave a comment

Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 8.5/10. They are worth a visit, especially if you’re already in the neighborhood. Burns has some solid ribs for very reasonable prices. Besides being mentioned on several barbecue blogs and rankings as a Houston institution, I was particularly drawn to this location as Anthony Bourdain had made several visits here as well, starting back in June 2003 when he hit the BBQ Triangle of Houston, Kansas City, & North Carolina and again when we revisited with rapper Slim Thug in June 2016 on his last show Parts Unknown. Once again, Tony didn’t disappoint with his recommendations as this place is everything you would expect from an old-school historic rib joint. Admitidly, this was my last stop along my BBQ tour of Texas and I was starting to get a little burnt out after 8 visits over 3 days, so I only kept my order to the ribs, but I will be back to try the other offerings as soon as I can

Date Visited: 1/30/2021

Day of the Week: Saturday

Time of Day: 4:30 PM. Open at 10:30 AM

Owner: Cory and Carl Crawford (Grandsons of Ray Burns Sr. Ray’s sons, Gary & Steve, work the pits out back keeping the family business going strong)

Website: https://burnsoriginalbbq.com/

Number of Years in Business: Opened in 1973 (48 years)

Number of People in Line: 8 with another 10 that came up to order right after us

Regional Style of BBQ: Central Texas

Total Cost: $27

Type of Wood: Oak

Type of Smoker: Offset smoker

Type of Seasoning: Salt & pepper

Best Dish: Spare Ribs

Best Sauce: Didn’t try any, stlll needs a review

Best Side: Didn’t try any, still needs a review

Interior Description: Small interior with no seating indoors. This being Houston, all of the seating is outdoors on a deck and next door combined with their burger shack. A Laidback neighborhood vibe where you could drive right by the restaurant and miss it if you aren’t looking. You can tell they added onto the original building several times over the years to keep up with growing demand

Pro Tip: Ribs are the specialty here, so if you’re on your own BBQ tour, skip the brisket here and save yourself the stomach space. Was told by a couple of locals to try the chopped beef and pork the next time I come in as well

Pork Spare Ribs 

0/10 Ranking: 8/10

Seasoning: Salt & pepper

Description: The ribs were tasty and tender overall, but not quite fall of the bone. They had a good smoke flavor running through them as well, but nothing really beyond that to make them stand out as something special

Pork Rib Ends  

0/10 Ranking: 8/10

Description: Almost no difference between these and the pork spare ribs

Georgia Boys BBQ

/ Mitch Clark / Leave a comment

Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 8.5 to 9/10 and yes it is. For overall quality of their offerings, they are easily in the top 5 of Colorado for the all around category. While no particular meat takes the gold medal for being the best in the state, their ability to produce tasty barbecue across pretty much their entire offering is something not easily accomplished. As such, this would be one of the few places in the state I would be comfortable recommending to a large group of food enthusiasts who have a wide range of tastes to try and please, as everyone is sure to be able to find something they like here

Date Visited: 1/19/2021

Address: 250 3rd Ave Longmont, CO 80501

Day of the Week: Tuesday

Time of Day: 11:55 AM. Opens at 11:00 AM

Owner: Nick Reckinger & Matt Alexander

Website: https://www.georgiaboys.com/

Number of Years in Business: Opened in December 2010 (11 years)

Number of People in Line: 0 but 8 were already seated

Regional Style of BBQ: Described to me as Southern

Total Cost: $42 with tip

Type of Wood: Hickory and Apple

Type of Smoker: (Unsure)

Type of Seasoning: Salt, pepper, paprika, and others

Best Dish: Burnt Ends

Best Sauce: (Needs Review)

Best Side: (Needs Review)

Interior Description: Has a good indoor section with traditional BBQ vibes along with a nice outdoor patio seating area for those wanting the open air option

Pro Tip: This place just down the street from a lot of great breweries such as Bootstrap, Wibby, & 300 Suns, so make it a day trip for both. They also have a second location in Frederick for those less inclined to make the trek to Longmont

Brisket

0/10 Ranking: 8/10

Seasoning: (Unsure)

Description: After talking with staff, was told they smoke their brisket for 14 hours typically. My cuts had about 1/4 inch of red smoke ring going through it, but they were a very lean pieces with the majority of the fat being trimmed off. That said, it was juicier than it appeared, but could use a lot more bark to it, as the pieces I received had minimal to none left on them. The barbecue sauce, if used, ends up overtaking the base meat flavor to the point that the sauce is all that shines through, so if you are using it, spread/dip with a delicate hand. While the brisket was average, it did offer a good pepper and seasoning flavor when some could be found, with it also being at the minimum moisture level for it to still be declared juicy. When comparing the smoke level to other bbq places in Colorado, this one does take the gold for being the most intense with it’s hickory taste beaming strongly. If a smoky flavored brisket is your goal, you’d be hard pressed to find one somewhere else in the front range

Burnt Ends

0/10 Ranking: 9/10

Seasoning: (Unsure)

Description: Smoked for 16-17 hours, they were extremely moist and had a strong smoke flavor running through them. They were also a great blend of fat and meat having been trimmed well. Similar to the brisket though, the salt and pepper and possibly another seasoning flavors were not coming through as much as I would have liked and needs just a little something else for it to take top burnt ends in the state

St Louis Style Spare Ribs 

0/10 Ranking: 8.5 to 9/10

Description: Smoked for 5 hours, the ribs were extremely juicy and may be the juiciest in Colorado. The outer layering of seasoning had really good flavor and a dash of of maybe cinnamon in the blend, couldn’t really put my finger on it. The meat itself could have used a bit more flavor, but still a very good rib overall. Would put them in the top 5 for ribs in the state

Pulled Pork

0/10 Ranking: 8.5 to 9/10

Description: The pulled pork has the most smoke flavor of any I’ve found in Colorado. It was moist with good overall flavor that doesn’t require any sauce to enjoy, but if you do use the sauce, their sweat heat option is better than the original. May be the top pulled pork in the state going toe to toe with GQue BBQ

Piggin’ Out Smokehouse

/ Mitch Clark / Leave a comment

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

Date Visited: 4/20/2021

Address: 9987 Morrison Rd, Lakewood, CO 80227

Day of the Week: Tuesday

Time of Day: 12:32 PM. Open at 11:00 AM

Owner: Zack Anderson

Website: https://www.pigginout.com/

Number of Years in Business: At least since 2014

Number of People in Line: 1 person sitting and 1 person ahead of me in line

Regional Style of BBQ: From Ohio originally, so blends several styles together

Total Cost: $36.00 with tip. 1/2lb brisket, 1/2lb pulled pork, 1/2lb chicken, and 1 Fat Tire

Type of Wood: N/A

Type of Smoker: N/A

Type of Seasoning: N/A

Best Dish: Pulled Pork

Best Sauce: N/A

Best Side: N/A

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. Brisket was juicy, but was slightly over cooked. 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 barks 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. Chicken was slightly over cooked 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

Sauces – Needs review

Sides – None ordered, needs review

Snow’s BBQ

/ Mitch Clark / Leave a comment

Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 10/10. It is absolutely worth the visit and the early arrival time, as it’s a fun experience from start to finish. This should be a stop along any BBQ enthusiasts tour, especially while the famous Tootsie Tomanetz is still smoking up her magic while overseeing the pits. Get there well before opening, ideally at least by 5:30 or 6:00 AM, if you want a chance to try everything they have, otherwise be prepared to have your available options reduced down to simply what hasn’t already sold out. We got there at 7:39 AM after a slow start leaving out of Austin that morning, and ended up being number 281 in line, much to the disappointment of the group for our having not made the sacrifice to get there earlier. That said, we had a great time waiting for the food by talking to our line mates next to us and enjoying the free beer and Bloody Marys provided by Snow’s while you wait. When our turn in line finally came at 2:20 PM, all that remained was the sausage, but we were just happy there was anything left at all after our almost 7 hours of waiting. We grabbed our sausages to go and sit sat down in the pit yard and almost immediately we found ourselves in conversation with the staff members, who appreciated our dedication for hanging around so long, especially with the looming risk they would sell out before we got to the counter. As such, they reciprocated our risk averseness by passing out free shots for our group and hanging out with us while we ate.

While the sausage was basically perfection in tube form, the thing that blew me away the most was that when I looked over to the pits, both Tootsie and Kerry were there together spraying out the coolers and making sure the area was fully cleaned up for the day. I 100% would have expected to see a lower-tier staff member doing these things, especially after those two have been working the pits all day, as well as entertaining the customers with photos and raffles, but instead, there they were taking care of the grunt work while the rest of the staff took a break with us. The image perfectly sums up the level of passion and love they both put into their barbecue and you can easily see how it translates into this crazy cult level following they’ve created.

Slightly beating out Franklin’s in Austin, I would say this is the most devout following I’ve ever come across for a barbecue pit, especially with being located in the middle of no where Texas. After making the pilgrimage myself, I can honestly say that I would wait the 7 hours again and and plan on returning as soon as I can to taste the full Snow’s experience

Number of Years in Business: Opened March 1st, 2003 (18 years)

Number of People in Line: 280, I won a free spice blend and koozie as Kerry called my number at 281 for the raffle.

Regional Style of BBQ: Central Texas

Total Cost: $10 for a sausage

Type of Wood: Oak

Type of Smoker: Offset pit smokers, metal and brick

Type of Seasoning: Salt & pepper

Best Dish: Sausage was all I had

Best Sauce: Original

Best Side: All gone by the time we order, need review still

Interior Description: You order inside and then you head outside to covered picnic tables that are right next to all of the pits and smokers. The interior isn’t really the draw though, as the experience is all about waiting in line and the energy that is created outside with all the BBQ lovers patiently waiting for their turn

Pro Tip: As I mentioned earlier, if you want the full menu available to you, you need to get there by 5:30 AM or 6:00AM at the latest. I’d also recommend bringing some lawn chairs or yard games to play along the way to pass the time

Sausage 

0/10 Ranking: 10/10

Description: Best sausage that I had in Texas. Crispy and taut outer casing, with delicious blend of fat, meat, and seasoning awaiting inside. It also had a solid smoke flavor running through it. One of the rare times that I actually enjoyed the entire sausage from beginning to end

Sauces

0/10 Ranking: 10/10

Description: Probably the best BBQ sauce I had while in Texas. Smoky and sweet, this was the first one I’ve had that wasn’t just a pure tomato based sauce

Terry Black’s Barbecue

/ Mitch Clark / Leave a comment

Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 9/10. Cool environment and delicious BBQ that you don’t have to wait hours for, I would recommend this place to anyone coming through Austin

Day of the Week: Thursday

Time of Day: 12:50 PM. Opens at 11:00 AM

Owner: Mark Black (Great grandson of Edgar Black Sr., the son of Terry & Patty Black.) His twin brother Mike and sister Christina also own and operate, with Mark and Christina running their 2nd location in Dallas’s Deep Ellum neighborhood. Cool part of Texas History

Number of Years in Business: Opened in 2014 in Austin, then 2017 in Dallas (7 years)

Number of People in Line: 5 people, but the dinning room was full with about 45 people sitting down already

Regional Style of BBQ: Central Texas

Total Cost: $30 w tip and beer. Brisket, spare ribs, jalapeno cheddar sausage, turkey

Type of Wood: Oak

Type of Smoker: Offset Smoker

Best Dish: Brisket or Turkey

Best Sauce: Spicy

Best Side: Didn’t try any, need review

Interior Description: Cool BBQ shanty vibe with outdoor and indoor seating. Similar to other Texas joints, you can grab a beer while you wait in line for your order

Pro Tip: Second best brisket I’ve had in Texas after Franklin’s, but don’t sleep on the turkey. Since they don’t cut burnt ends, grab some lean and fatty brisket when you come

Brisket

0/10 Ranking: 9/10

Seasoning: Salt & pepper

Description: Best brisket in Austin after Franklin’s. It had the most seasoning of any other Texas spot that I tried, with a great bark texture and a good smoke ring running through it. Moist, but still having structural integrity to it, the lean and the fatty cuts were both good. With how they were trimmed, you could eat multiple pieces of either the lean or the fatty and not get overwhelmed with richness. It was a little cold by the time I had gotten there, so arrive as close to opening as you can for the best experience

Burnt Ends – Not made here, as they do lean or fatty cuts with their brisket

Pork Spare Ribs: 

0/10 Ranking: 8.5/10

Seasoning: Salt & pepper

Description: Really good salt and pepper blend for the seasoning with the pepper really shining through. Moist and tender, but not quite falling off the bone. Very tasty rub overall, but would still put some Colorado locations ahead if it

Jalapeno Cheddar Sausage 

0/10 Ranking: 8.5/10

Description: I got this at the recommendation of my line carver and it was a solid recommendation overall. Mild spice to it with the flavor and consistency reminding me of home with a similar profile as cheddar brats of northern Wisconsin. Would order again

Turkey

0/10 Ranking: 9/10

Description: Extremely juicy turkey breast with great seasoning and slight smoke flavor running through it. Would order again as it’s probably the best turkey I had in Texas

Sauces – Original & Spicy

0/10 Ranking: 6.5/10 and 8.5/10

Description: Both sauces are tomato based, but the spicy has a mustard vinegar after finish that is pretty good. Original is nothing special though

Interior Description: 2 story BBQ joint with large interior space, with counter ordering and a large beer trough right when you walk in

Pro Tip: Grab yourself a beer while you wait in line, as they are free if you’re grabbing some food, similar to several other Texas locations

Brisket

0/10 Ranking: 7 to 7.5/10

Seasoning: Salt & pepper

Description: Brisket was slightly tough with about 1/4 inch smoke inch to it. I had the lean cut pieces, but they may have been too dried out with closing time being at 3PM and me getting there at 2:38

Burnt Ends

0/10 Ranking: 8.5 to 9/10

Seasoning: Salt & pepper

Description: Extremely juicy with good blend of meat and fat, leaning on the fattier side. Might be the juiciest burnt ends I’ve ever had, but seasoning and smoke were relatively mild but very good balance overall

Pork Spare Ribs 

0/10 Ranking: 8/10

Description: Tender and juicy, but again not enough smoke or seasoning flavor coming through. Salt and pepper rub only I believe, but didn’t confirm

Pulled Pork

0/10 Ranking: 6.5 to 7/10

Description: Dry and somewhat bland with only pepper flavor coming through. Wouldn’t get it again

Wayne’s Smoke Shack

/ Mitch Clark / Leave a comment

Overall Rating and is it worth a visit: 8/10. Undecided on if it’s worth a visit again. The prices were some of the highest in Colorado for brisket which failed to impress, but would be down to give them another review at some point, as it does have the BBQ ambiance to it

Type of Seasoning: Salt & pepper

Best Dish: Brisket

Best Sauce: (Needs review)

Best Side: Not the mac & cheese

Interior Description: Seating for about 30-40 with long wooden tables and plenty of room to spread out. Even though it’s in the suburbs and by a large mall, it still creates a good environment and barbecue feeling/vibe when coming through the doors

Pro Tip: Skip the pork belly

Brisket

0/10 Ranking: 8 to 8.5/10

Seasoning: Salt & pepper

Description: Good flavoring and seasoning, but slightly over cooked and just a little too fatty, needing to be trimmed a little more. They don’t serve burnt ends here as everything is cut either fatty or lean in true Central Texas style

Burnt Ends – Not served here

St Louis Style Spare Ribs

0/10 Ranking: 7.5 to 8/10

Description: Good texture that melts in your mouth without losing it’s structure completely. Nice salt and pepper blend with some sugar or additional seasoning that gives off a sweetness to it. That said, it does need more flavor to put it over the top and a little sauce is required for maximum enjoyment

Pulled Pork

0/10 Ranking: 7/10 for original flavor

Description: A sweet pulled pork that doesn’t have much BBQ flavor in it. While it does have a unique taste that is enjoyable overall, it comes off too sweet and needs sauce to salvage it

Pork Belly

0/10 Ranking: 5/10

Description: Way too fatty, needing only 1/8 lb max for an order. While pork belly typically is a softer texture BBQ, this one was too mushy and too fat heavy to enjoy much of it. Wouldn’t order again

Sides – Mac & Cheese

0/10 Ranking: 6.5/10

Description: The noodles were cooked well, but the cheese flavor coming through was underwhelming. Wouldn’t order this side again.
