Sam Taylor's Bar-B-Q fires up downhome specialties
Sam Taylor’s Bar-B-Q has used the slogan “one bone is all it takes” for years. It fits. When Beyonce is in town, she calls for chow. Elected officials are frequent visitors. Pro athletes too. This isn’t a place with a chi-chi atmosphere…far from it. You can’t call it a dive, but the décor is spare—bare bones, so to speak. What’s the draw? It’s the food, y’all. Fall-off-the-bone tender meats, freshly prepared sides and a signature barbecue sauce so good it’s the only one on the menu.

Despite a firm “waste not, want not” mindset, don’t expect her to add Rocky Mountain oysters to the menu. It’s a personal palate thing.

No doubt about it, the Buckhorn Exchange gets its share of tourist traffic. Founded in 1893, it has authentic Old West roots and is home of Colorado’s very first liquor license. Menus feature assorted game not readily found in most restaurants--you don't nosh on ostrich, rattlesnake and 'gator every day. Locals may be past the curiosity factor, but can still appreciate weekday happy hours, live music and a friendly, Western atmosphere that is a refreshing break from urban bustle.
