Hi All,

I'm going to be spending a week in Denver/Westminster area next month.

I would appreciate any suggestions for cue joints or great restaurants in
general.

Thanks in advance.

F^&* the BBQ. Drive over to Boulder and drop into Tom's Tavern at the west
end of the Boulder mall for a hamburger. You've never had a hamburger until
you've been to Tom's Taveryn. He sets the standard for hamburgers. Don't
expect either mediocre or cheap. Was $8.00 in '89. Meal on a plate. That's
what you're to expect.

There is a place in Broomfield called "Kaddy Shack", baby backs, sausage
and beef were pretty good.

Unfortunately, pickings are mighty slim for good Q in this area. I usually
have to go to Texas to get a decent slice of brisket.

There are one or two little places that aren't bad in Westminster, but
their names escape me at the moment. I'll check it out tomorrow and post
their names. Steer clear of Brothers BBQ, it's a small chain in Denver, and
they use a rub that is way too salty/spicy for my taste, it completely
overpowers the smoke, IMNSHO, although there are people who rave about
them. There's Bennett's, a chain that has a location right off I-70 and
Wadsworth that'll do in a pinch.

As for great restaurants in general, well, this is Denver, and although
they've come a long way in recent years, your basic choices are Mexican,
Mexican, or Mexican. There are some decent places downtown, The Chop House
is one, pricy but good.

Ya know, really, your best bet is to pick up a copy of Westword, it's a
free weekly that has complete restaurant and entertainment listings for the
entire metro area. You can find it at any 7-11.
HTH.

Tom's was good the last time I was there, a few years ago. The Dark Horse
also has excellent burgers. They used to have Burger Madness on Tuesdays,
$4.99, don't know if they still do that.

There is a Brother's BBQ in Broomfield, KT's in Boulder,
and couple up in Longmont.
Last time I was at Toms' (a couple of months ago) I was not impressed.
