Worth the wait! But don’t wait any longer to try this place. Followed them on Instagram when they still just had a food truck. Now they have the storefront off of Colfax. We had the Nashville hot chicken and the buttermilk chicken with pimento cheese biscuit. Grubbed them down with some bomb IPA’s at a nearby taproom making everyone else with just IPA’s wish they had our sandos. Perfect. The biscuits are light, not overly salty, not crumbly or dry, amazing. The chicken is juicy, crisp, and super flavorful. Toppings add depth but don’t interfere with the two main captains of the ship. Exactly what you wish all chicken biscuit sandos were, when most fall short on one aspect or another. More than highly recommend. Cheers-

Don’t let the stupid Colfax construction stop you from coming here! I came on a whim today for lunch and it was one of the better meals I have had in a long time. Quality was stellar, the staff was so friendly and helpful when I ordered. I will be back time and time again. I got the fried green tomato sandwich it was so much food and so tasty. I tried all the sauces the Carolina vinegar being my favorite maybe because I have never seen it before. The collard greens were also so yummy they had like a touch of sweetness and maybe a little heat idk but great.
Let’s get these guys through the colfax mess because denver wouldn’t want to lose a gem like this one!

Yummy bbq on East Colfax! Great portion sizes and fast service. They also have a food truck that goes around town. I love the Colfax location and definitely want to support while Colfax is under destruction!

Incredible BBQ! Super happy this place went into Steve’s old spot on Colfax! Jodi and Ben are making some of the best BBQ I’ve ever had. The portion sizes are massive and everything is spectacular! Biscuits, chicken sandwich, pimento Mac and cheese and pulled pork were some highlights. All the sauces are excellent, too. Great vibes and they even serve beer. A new Colfax staple!

The food is incredible. I am not sure what style they are representing but it is like if a traditional southern restaurant did BBQ. Biscuits are big and flaky. They have every type of sauce from Kansas City, Alabama White, Carolina Gold etc… The best and most unique sauce was the Apple BBQ. Ribs and Pulled pork both super tender and flavor. Fried Green Tomatoes with Chow Chow were a unique side for a BBQ joint. Also pimento mac and cheese was a delicious southern twist. I did not love the homemade pickles but everything else was dynamite. They do a banana pudding hand pie that is lights out. Probably the best desert I have ever had. Will definitely be back. Unfortunately they don’t do brisket but I did not miss that given all the other delicious things going on.

Ah-mazing BBQ! Easily the best in Denver.
The biscuit were so flaky, Mac n cheese extra cheesy, and the hush puppies had the perfect crunch on the outside while remaining soft and moist on the inside.
They had Cheerwine, which was a special treat, and great local beer taps.
Been following the food truck around for a while now and it’s so great to see them have their own storefront. Highly recommend if you love high quality southern food made with love.

What a great find! We loved their fried chicken in a biscuit. The meat was tender and the biscuit had the perfect texture. Their fried banana pie dessert is a must try! We will be back

So good! The fried chicken sandwich here is one f the best in the biz. Crispy, juicy, perfectly flavored, on a scrumptious biscuit. The sides are excellent, too. I’m excited for another visit and to eat my way through the rest of the menu!

Denver is home to lots of bad barbecue. I think it’s a matter of refusing to adapt sea level techniques for our mile-high, arid environment. Fortunately, “Mama Jo” knows what she’s doing. The owners honed their skills with a food truck and have brought a top-quality product to this new location–conveniently just down the street from my house.
It’s fortunate that I live nearby. My bag of takeout smelled so good that I would have been forced to pull over to sample the goodies if I hadn’t made it home just in time to satisfy my craving. The great smells did not disappoint. I enjoyed every item.
Very conveniently for a store on Colfax Avenue there’s a nice parking lot. The dining room is a square structure tacked onto the front of the building with a continuous bank of windows running on all sides. There’s also a long counter with bar stools in the rear of the building, across from the kitchen.
I was greeted by a friendly staffer who quickly rang up my order. She pointed out the sauce counter and suggested I check those out while they were preparing my order. There’s a selection of six sauces covering a wide range of styles, although the food is inspired by Carolina barbecue.
I ordered Mama’s House which gave me a nice combination of pork, ribs, and sausage plus sides. The sausage was spicy and delicious. The pulled pork was juicy and tender, and the ribs fell off the bone. Everything was well-prepared and very flavorful.
The sides more than held their own. Any place with “Biscuits” in their name better turn out a decent biscuit and these were great: huge, fluffy, and yummy. I’ll definitely need to try one of the biscuit sandwiches. The pictures on the menu are very appealing.
The fried green tomatoes with house chow chow were great. I enjoyed the very cheesey pimento mac’n’cheese and the refreshing cole slaw. There was also a generous serving of house pickles.
Just an all-around great meal. These guys really know what they’re doing. Terrific job!
