I went here for lunch this week. They were all out of hot links so I plan to go back and reevaluate. The pulled pork was fantastic. The brisket was disappointing. The sides were good. Very friendly and I might have caught them on a bag day. Will try again.

Nothing like paying 30 bucks for beef jerky. Don’t forget the sauce, only way you’re going to get any juice out of that meat

Best brisket sandwich in the US. (Sorry North Carolina--you don't even come close). First time in years that I've been back and so glad I did.

Gonna have to give it 3 stars until I actually try it. I wanted a pound of brisket but their menu doesn't show prices for pounds meaning they likely DO NOT do BBQ by poundage. A slight let down. I didn't ask though, they might do pounds and just not post it due to the ridiculous cost of beef brisket these days.

Don't let this place fool you. It's a great app for BBQ!! We had a private event there and they were so accommodating. The meat was tender and their salad dressing had a surprising kick to it, amazing. Great owner and a place to support if you're in the area. Oh, I didn't mention the mac-n- cheese, WOW!!

Excellent BBQ. We were passing through Golden and found you accidentally. Very lucky find. Pulled pork was delicious and moist, brisket was tender and juicy, Slaw was great (just enough sweet and perfect tang), and I loved the spicy BBQ sauce.Thank you

Well to start as soon as I walked in the man behind the counter seemed irritated he had to stop looking at his phone to help me, if I tried to ask about something he just pointed to the wall where the menu was. He doesnt seem to like what he does which definitely hurts the business. Next the food was mediocre at best. Both meats I had were pretty much cold, but the sides were boiling which tells me they were microwaved before he brought them out. Sad I wasted 25 bucks and a half hour of my time to feel like an inconvenience. If there was a 0 star that's what I'd give... DO NOT RECOMMEND

The food is only ok. Without the bbq sauce the chicken, brisket and pulled pork I got on my 3 meat plate were nearly identical except the color. Not flavorful in the sense that Bbq should be. Everything chopped, except the pulled pork, which looked identical to the chopped chicken. Unfortunately on my end I ordered hush puppies and sweet potater tots, the tots I thought would look like tots, so when I confused them for the hush puppies I called to say I didn't receive the tots, the guy who answered immediately copped an attitude and said I was looking at them. Lol, I was, totally. But a good attitude and simply saying, the 3 smaller looking hush puppies are actually the tots woulda made it enjoyable, and set me on the right path.Food is ok, edible not gross, but coupled with a bad attitude doesn't make for a great meal. Two stars because I regularly run into not getting maybe the best food but they usually have such a great attitude and service, I may find myself going back....not the case here. Cheers!

All sides are delicious. The #1 item by our party vote is the key lime pie "the best ever" a few agreed. Kind service and quality food,

Only giving 4 out of 5 cause the portion sizes are tiny, especially for trying to feed 2 people. Got the 2 meat plate w/2 sides & the sides VERY small. The Mac & cheese is to DIE for though and the rest of the food is SO well cooked, will be coming back again for the mac & cheese. But the price is high for the sizes you get, disappointed with that.

The wonderful aroma when you walk in the front are simply the starting point: the taste backs all those mouth watering smells up! From the homemade pickles to the spicy bbq sauce, the perfect combination of flavors. Can't wait to come back and try more menu items!

Not worth it, not good bbq. Much better options around. Owner is also a deceitful operator. Disgusting to have this type of business in Golden. Looking forward to it going out of business and something decent moving in.

The food is good but the man working (I’m assuming the owner) is always rude. We’ve been a few times and his attitude is just a turn off. Even though we like the food we have decided to take our business to other bbq spots in the area.

I telephoned this afternoon to place an order for takeout in about 15 minutes. The Green Chile with Mac and Cheese, half pound of beef brisket, and half pound of pulled pork, with one of each barbecue sauce. Absolutely delicious and I’ll return often! Thank you! =)

Place is filthy. Poor value. Paid almost $16 for three sides that were all in tiny containers.
