BBQ....http://www.thesmokinq.com/ all the way! Tiny place up in Divide, low and slow dry smoked. When they first opened last year I used to feed my family of 5 for $25. Prices did go up a bit, more up to par.

Ok, I don't get the love over Hickory House.
I mean, it's ok
but right down Parker Rd is Big Jim's BBQ in that van that smells so damn good that is 20 times better.

Big Jim's BBQ is the best BBQ in Denver metro IMHO.

This is that little place right on the corner of 24 and 67; right? I ate there a little over a month ago (another payment for helping my buddy move). Yes, I was quite impressed with their brisket. I decided that it's not a bad place to stop and get a bite on my way back from fishing.

Hmm. I've never heard of the place. I guess I'll have to check this place out too. Can't get enough BBQ!

The Rib House in Longmont has some wonderful BBQ, now I'm all hungry.

Smokin' Dave's BBQ is pretty good if you're in the mood for BBQ in Estes Park.

Eh, purely your opinion. The love for Hickory House is quite simple, it's much better than "ok", there wouldn't be flocks of people waiting out front in the cold for a table, if it weren't good. But that is purely my opinion.

as a BBQ connoisseur of all types
The rib house is ok, not bad, but definitely not great.

but it's SERIOUSLY overpriced.
I mean WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY OVER PRICED.

ok, BBQ is all individual tastes and that's fine.

But people wait in line at Olive Garden all the time, does that mean it's great Italian food?

american's taste in most anything worries me.

Ate at Texas de Brazil on 13 Dec. OUTSTANDING!

I've eaten at Fogo de Chao in Houston, Roditzio in Albuquerque, and Pampas in Las Vegas. Texas de Brazil was at least as good as Fogo de Chao, which I consider the best of the lot. Ate so much meat I started getting the "meat sweats"!

Great place to go for a special occasion or as th eoccasional treat, but GO HUNGRY.

I was thinking about that the other day, and that a majority of people don't know what a truly great meal tastes like. It's like being in Times Square and you see people at the Chilis...
