Here are 10 of the most meat-forward dishes in the Mile High City, just in time for the National Western Stock Show. If we missed your favorite, add it to the comments.
Globe Hall is the ideal place to fuel up for the Stock Show. Its location in Globeville is a quick jaunt from the Convention Center, the no-frills approach is great for cowboy-types, the barbecue fare is on point and tickets for live music events until January 23 are only $5 with a Stock Show ticket. Carnivores will surely approve of the Macho Grande burrito - a monster made with barbecued brisket, sausage and pulled pork all wrapped in a colossal tortilla.
Old Major is one of Denver's most meat-forward eateries, and the nose-to-tail platter is a beautiful showcase of that specialty. This carnivore's delight is currently being served with sausage, braised belly, honey rib, crispy ears, sage stuffing, and green bean casserole.
What could be a more carnivorous, manly way to cap off a successful day at the Stock Show than with Rebel's half roasted pig's head? The current iteration of the dish brings grilled scallions, Rebel Farms greens, corn husk vinaigrette, and flatbread.
The Andrew Jackson at this Congress Park casual spot is a meaty and masterful creation with a 1/3 pound burger patty, barbecue brisket, applewood smoked bacon, pepper jack cheese, fried avocado, grilled onion, fried egg, mushrooms and a side of parmesan fries.
As implied in its name, Uptown's Beast + Bottle curates fine, meat-forward dishes alongside a carefully selected beverage menu. Meat lovers will approve of the variations of duck dish - with duck breast, sausage, seared liver, grape must, parsnip, and seeds.
The Nickel is hosting two separate Stock Show dinners, naturally featuring meat-forward menus. The first is on Wednesday, January 13 from 5 to 10 p.m. for $65 per person. 7X Beef will be collaborating with the Nickel to serve beef tartare, beef tendons, oxtails with beef consommé and a NY steak with bone marrow emulsion. The second dinner features Western Daughters Butcher Shoppe on Wednesday, January 20 from 5 to 10 p.m.
Euclid Hall goes hog wild with meat-centric dishes. The Ricky Ricardo sandwich gives the classic Cubano a run for its money, with house-cured ham, bacon, braised pork belly, giardiniera, swiss cheese and yellow mustard and buttery pressed bread. Or opt for Euclid's butcher's cut - a varying selection of hand-cut Ron Buxman Colorado beef served a la carte.
The Chop Shop serves a mean grilled bacon-wrapped meatloaf, with house-ground beef, spplewood smoked bacon, tangy mango barbecue sauce, and beer battered onions among its other large protein-forward dishes.
The new Berkeley spot is all about meats of the cured variety. In addition to the plentiful cured meat options, the neighborhood spot serves meaty, delicious sandwiches. Order The Hoggie, a masterpiece of cured meat made with sliced coppa cotta, house ham, genoa salami cotta, garlic aioli, red wine vinaigrette, arugula and farm tomatoes on Grateful Bread hoagie roll.
Biker Jim's is a classic Denver meat institution. It's hard to go wrong with any of the tube steak selections here, but you'll go straight to meat heaven on the wings of the Bat Dog - a smoked bacon brat topped with bacon, tomato bacon powder, avocado puree, caramelized onions and tomato cream cheese.
