Marc: Smoke Sheet: Great brisket, burnt ends, spare ribs, turkey, creamed corn, mac n cheese, fries, and okra.
Kaila Mazzy: Absolutely everything is great here, be sure to get burnt ends and check out their daily special. Dont miss the $2 beer tub!

Dawn C: All these years in Denver, I finally found amazing BBQ!!! Must try the greens!!
Max Latrans: Flat out, best BBQ in Denver. Don't miss out on the Sweat Tea!
Denver Westword: The dry rub on the smoked brisket, pulled pork, hot links, chicken and ribs combined with the tangy and peppery barbecue sauce are sure to make your mouth water.
Derrick Disnute: I had pork, pork ribs, lean beef brisket, cowboy beans, collard greens and cornbread muffin. Everything was great, a definite repeat for BBQ.
Claire Shea: Hands down one of the best BBQ spots in Denver. I highly recommend the fatty side of the brisket and the poblano Mac and cheese.
Cody W: As a Texan... this is legit bbq.

RACHELISTA: Everybody should try the goat. And short rib. And Brussel sprouts. And chickpea croquette. And everything.
Dylan Eldridge: $4 wait drink, while you wait for your table. The brisket was some of the best I have ever had.
Mike Le: The Braised Greens, Brussel Sprouts with winter squash, and the brisket were wonderful. The lamb was just alright, not the most flavorful, and the crawfish with grits was very, very garlicky.
