Getting out of our vehicle we could smell the BBQ Smokey goodness!
We ordered the brisket, tri tip, chicken, mac & cheese, custard filled cornbread and banana pudding.
All three meat choices were mouth watering delicious. The sauces available were are good but the meat was fantastic by itself.
The Mac and cheese was really good. We were impressed. It is hard to find a good Mac & cheese.
The custard filled cornbread a new thing for us to try. I am not a fan of cornbread but the middle part was good to me :) We were there for the meat anyway.
The staff was friendly and patient.
The restaurant was clean.
There is also a mostly covered outdoor patio.
We were craving BBQ and this definitely made us happy!
It's a gem. Great BBQ Pastrami and Chicken this visit. Tried the pulled pork and burnt ends too which were pretty dang good. The Mac and cheese (truffle, but not too much) and banana pudding were perfect.
Good balanced BBQ, the things supposed to be heavy were heavy and the things that should be light were light.
Plan for early lunches or you'll find they start running out of things. Now all I gotta do is figure out how to get here more often.
Came here because of the Michelin 2023 rating. 🏆 We had the brisket, pastrami, burnt ends, and pork spare ribs. All of the meat had perfect bark and were smoked to perfection. The truffle Mac and cheese is creamy and the custard filled cornbread was good. It's not sweet, just rich. I liked the Carolina Gold and smoked jalapeno BBQ sauces best. The citrus chipotle sauce would go well on poultry.
Seating in the dining room is limited, but there's a large covered patio out back. We snagged a parking spot right out front, but you will need to find street parking when they're busy.
I'll be back to try the other menu items!
The best Texas Style BBQ I've had in town. We had the ribs and pulled chicken cooked just right. The beans were a little "eh" for me. But, overall a great experience. We will definitely be back.
I went in after the lunch rush and had to place almost to myself. Incredibly friendly guy working the counter. Got a bunch of different meats and of course the famous pastrami which was the best of all of them. Try tip was juicy and very tender. My least favorite was the brisket that I felt was on the dry side. Sauces were all good but not mine blowing and the real star of the show was the pastrami, followed by the banana pudding. Coleslaw was also different with a mayo-based but the tang of a good vinegar sauce. Definitely recommend coming here for pastrami, burnt ends, banana pudding and coleslaw. Thank you so much to the staff for such a great hospitality. Sat on the outside patio which is really nice and large. Can’t wait to go back.
The brisket was incredible. Sadly a lot of the meats were served somewhat lukewarm, however. The staff was friendly and after the military discount, the food was very affordable considering the quality of which (especially compared to most other barbecue establishments).
The ambiance was austere, however. No music and the isolated yelling of individual patrons punctuated the otherwise silent atmosphere.
In my opinion, the brisket stood out in terms of flavor and tenderness. The ribs and smoked sausage were pretty good. The truffle mac is creamy and packed full of truffle flavor. 7.9/10 overall.
I’m embarrassed to say it took me until AJ’s got awarded Bib Gourmand by Michelin (essentially awesome spots on a budget) to come here. My friends and husband have been raving about it for years. It was everything I wanted and more!
Really cute spot, both inside and outside. Really friendly staff, clearly working hard to get you the best meats. And oh man, the meats! Best brisket in Colorado, hands down. Ask for the fattiest cut. Unsurprisingly, the pastrami is equally delicious — as are the burnt ends and beef ribs — since they’re all coming from that delicious smoked beef.
We also loved the cheesy sausage, pulled pork, and tri-tip — but nothing beats the brisket and pastrami here. Must-tries! I’ve been back for it several times now.
The smoked turkey was flavored well. The beef rib was very tasty too many burnt pieces, could not eat but it was priced well. The cornbread was tasty and moist but not anything I would need to have again. The baked beans were good and on the sweet side.
Amazing BBQ. The brisket was delicious. Make sure to try the Carolina Gold sauce. Potato salad is great. The pudding corn bread was interesting but a little odd.
There is a bunch of seating both indoors and out. Waitstaff is very friendly. Decent beer selection. Everything smells amazing in there. Even just the restaurant itself. Very filling meal. Highly recommend.
