I stop by Lil' Smokey's at Rainbow Plaza at least once a week for lunch. The Smokewagon combo is my go-to - perfect portion and great variety. Everything is consistently delicious, and the staff is always friendly. Best BBQ in central Colorado by far!

The catering package from Lil' Smokey's made our company retreat unforgettable! The White Cadillac package fed our entire team of 60 people with plenty to spare. The brisket was perfectly smoked, and the pork belly bites were the surprise hit of the event. Jeff and his team handled everything professionally from setup to cleanup. Worth every penny!

We hired Lil' Smokey's to cater our daughter's wedding last month, and our guests are still raving about the food! The full-service catering was impeccable - professional staff, beautiful presentation, and most importantly, delicious BBQ. The smoked turkey was incredibly moist, and the veggie options impressed even our meat-loving guests. Highly recommend for any special event!
