Barbecue Week Starts Right Now

Barbecue Week starts right now at Eater Denver and throughout the rest of the Eater world. Every day this week, we'll be exploring the Mile High City barbecue scene through a series of maps and other features. You'll find staples, newcomers, and some eclectic twists.

This page is the headquarters for all the barbecue stories published this week, but follow the Eater Denver's social media accounts (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) for updates as well. And if you chow down on great smoked meats and share your photos on Instragram, be sure to add #eaterdenver, and we'll feature some of our favorites on our Instagram account.

Are you a barbecue expert and know our local scene? Share through the tipline, leave a comment below, or start a conversation in the forums.

Here's a quick video explanation of American barbecue to get you in the mood for the week.
