edpaffjr.comThe first meal my family and I had while on vacation in Estes Park was at Smokin’ Dave’s BBQ & Taphouse. My dad recommended it after reading some reviews before our trip. The first thing that really surprised me was the beer selection, which was really great for a small BBQ restaurant. I decided to go with a Smoked Porter from Alaskan Brewing to compliment the smoky food. I seem to recall other fine beers on tap including Breckenridge Vanilla Porter as well as solid choices from both Odell and Avery.
For meals, we all decided to choose from the smokin’ platters and while everyone else went with the single pulled pork, I decided to try the roasted half chicken. Each platter comes with two sides and with so many options we had very few repeats at the table. I chose the cole slaw along with red beans and rice. Â Both of my sides were good and the half chicken was plenty filling. There were four sauces on the table to sample and I think the original and tangy were the best. I also sampled the pulled pork, which was really good, as well as their sweet potato fries, BBQÂ baked beans, and spiced apples. All of the food was very good and I would easily put it at the top of my list in Estes Park.
