Sugarfire Smokehouse — Westminster
The Atlas Review
The BBQ Atlas
Sugarfire Smokehouse cooks low and slow in the St. Louis style, and the Travel Channel agrees it's the best barbecue around.
Sugarfire's Colorado outpost, in Westminster north of Denver, carries the St. Louis original's chef-driven barbecue west: slow-smoked ribs, pulled pork and brisket, plus the rotating specials Mike Johnson built the brand on. Carolyn Downs's pastry background is why the dessert case is worth a second look. A St. Louis smokehouse a long way from St. Louis — cooking like it means to close the distance.
