Counter-service Southern barbecue a short walk from Coors Field

A plain barbecue counter on Broadway at 22nd doing brisket, ribs, pulled pork and hot links, with sides that lean Southern rather than Texan. Order at the register, sit at a table, eat off butcher paper. It opens at 11am and closes at 8pm every day, which makes it a lunch and early-dinner place. Portions run large enough that a two-meat plate feeds most people twice. Close to the ballpark without being a ballpark restaurant, and cheap enough that a group can eat here before paying stadium prices for beer.

Why go. Filling, unfussy barbecue within walking distance of the stadium and the Broadway bars.

It closes at 8pm, so eat before first pitch rather than trying to come back after the game.
