“ Very friendly. Good bbq. We got the pulled pork sandwich with fried pickle and slaw. It was nicely pulled but I had a bone shard in my sandwich. The pork wasn't particularly smoky flavored but the bbq sauce was pleasanr We got the beans side and Mac n cheese. Beans were good but I didn't like the black beans in them. The smoked wings are amazing! ”

“ Best BBQ in the foothills! Really unique options that aren't what you typically find in BBQ restaurants. The chicken sandwich is my #1 favorite. The asparagus is great too. I'm not a big fan of the mac and cheese but about everything else has been great. Love the ambiance of sitting next to the creek as well. ”

“ Wowza! This place was good! Me and The Hubs (both retired) like to take scenic drives through Kittredge and Evergreen periodically but we usually do it mid-week and on days when this place isn't open (not intentionally, of course). Well, that's going to change! When we arrived a little after 1 PM we noted while we were walking up to the front of the restaurant that there was a very large outdoor patio with plenty of shaded seating available. A very personable restaurant staff member was outside the door taking orders as we walked up. After perusing the menu of what was available (note: some items were already sold out at 1:15-ish, like the smoked duck breast - sigh, maybe next time), we ordered the following to share: 1/4 pound each pulled pork and brisket, 1/2 rack of ribs, one slice of bacon, 8 oz each baked beans, cucumber salad, and the seasonal vegetable which was grilled asparagus, and two pieces of Texas toast. And yes, we were stuffed by the time we left. Everything was fabulous, but if I had to choose one standout, it would be the ribs. They were very nicely smoked and super tender. The meat came off the bone very easily but it wasn't like some ribs that have been cooked so long that they border on mushy. These were perfect! The baked beans were good, as well - not the overly sweet variety (just slightly sweet and made with two kinds of beans). Again, everything was fresh and delicious. After you order your food, they give you a number and then bring out your food. While waiting, find table and then go to the condiment station and get paper plates, utensils, napkins, water, pickles, peppers, and sliced onions for your meal. They have four flavors of sauce on the tables. We didn't use any on our food (nothing needs any sauce), but we did taste them and all were very good. The patio was super relaxing under the trees and right next to a creek. We went just recently so the patio was a relaxed post-summer atmosphere. Most important of all, I can't think of anything to complain about. They even had clean, well-stocked restrooms! ”

“ Ordered the Devil's Elbow sandwich and Sliced Smoked Duck to go. Service was friendly and efficient. The Devil's Elbow was good. Lots of moist pork and fried pickles. Without sauce, I went with the Catamount Gold, it was pretty bland. It's a personal preference, but I like to taste some dry rub in my pulled pork. The Sliced Smoked Duck was INSANELY DELICIOUS! It is not just the best smoked duck I have ever had, which it definitely was, but possibly the best duck I have ever had. I am no newbie when it comes to duck. I usually order it if it's on the menu and make it myself, including on my Traeger. I made dinner around the smoked duck the next day, with asparagus, maitake mushrooms, sweet onions and hatch chiles. So good! Due note the limited hours, but if you are nearby when they are open, definitely give them a try. The creek setting is a very nice bonus. ”

“ Sitting next to the river drinking a craft beer while eating good bbq. Every bit as good as it sounds ”

“ I recently moved to this general area and passed by this gem several times. The aromas coming from the smokers is totally inviting. Today I was able to eat there for the first time and it totally lived up to the other rave reviews on Yelp. I was a party of one and it was difficult to decide what to get. I chose the half rack of St Louis Ribs, 8oz cowboy beans and an ice tea. The woman who took my order was very nice and gave me instructions on where I could sit and also find napkins and utensils. They have plenty of outdoor seating along a flowing creek and many trees. Just beautiful. My order was delivered to my table in less than 10 minutes. The ribs were smoked and seasoned perfectly!! 7 bones of lean, tender, juicy but not overly fatty ribs. On the table were large bottles of their 4 types of sauces. All excellent and really complement the meat. The beans were a mixture of pinto and black beans. They were very good. The tea was clearly fresh brewed. I'm looking forward to returning and trying some of their other menu items. ”

“ Delicious! I always get the duck and sweet potato fries. Best BBQ around. Side note: go next door for the ice cream. ”

“ This company caterered our company party yesterday. The four and service was amazing! Loved the smoked Salmon! ”

“ Visiting friends while in CO and after our hike i was told about this place! The menu offered a great variety of options, including brisket, pulled pork, ribs, and smoked chicken. I opted for the brisket and was blown away by the tenderness and flavor of the meat. The sides were also fantastic, with standout dishes like the mac and cheese and the collard greens. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home. The atmosphere of the restaurant was also great, with a cozy and casual vibe that was perfect for a weekend meal with friends. ”
