Highly recommend this food truck and catering company! Great to work with, fun and #1 the food is crazy good and authentically awesome! We used them for a party of 25 today and everyone gave it rave reviews, and they arrived promptly on time as requested. We enjoyed the beef brisket, pulled pork, Mac and cheese, amazing collards and more! Also, I'm from the South, and this food is as good as it gets! read more

Rolling Smoke BBQ - Beef brisket, pulled pork and COLLARDS that'll make you slap yo momma! - Barbeque Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

We got takeout BBQ this weekend and we love rolling smoke! We got the whole smoker meal this time and it was a great way to get a sampler of all the meats and four sides. My favorite was the hot links sausage and burnt ends. They have a great spicy bbq sauce and mustard dipping sauce as well! Delicious! My favorite sides are the Mac n cheese - sooooo good! And the collard greens. It's a lot of food but my husband and I finished the leftovers the next evening and everything reheats well. The service was pretty quick too. read more

Food was very dry and overcooked. Needed a steak knife to cut the brisket. Slaw look like it was two days old and green beans were not cooked enough. Macaroni and cheese was very very dry and impossible to eat. Chicken seem like it was cooked two days ago and it's so dry you cannot eat it. Very very disappointed. Manager was very rude and try to rush the order. Literally, the worst restaurant I've eaten at in 30 years in Las Vegas. I am originally from Tennessee where they make outstanding barbecue in this place would not make it one week there. Wish I had read the reviews before I went. read more

Love Rolling Smoke! Also love hanging out at Stanley Marketplace so its a win-win. This is a counter, not a sit-down joint, but there are lots of tables right outside their counter. You can also get it to go. Really great authentic barbecue. Have had it all - brisket, burnt ends, pulled pork, sausages (Colorado made - try the hot ones!); everything was excellent. And the traditional sides are great too - collards, cole slaw, mac and cheese. Good customer service - staff is really nice. Have sometimes arrived just as they were closing up, and they have stayed late to take my order. If you like 'cue, add Rolling Smoke to your queue! read more

Located in Stanley Marketplace, Rolling Smoke is bringing traditional bbq to Denver. Their mac & cheese is made with shell pasta and is delightfully cheese, plus they serve traditional baked beans -- where there is almost more molasses than bean. The meats were smoked well and I was shocked at how good it all was on a Sunday afternoon only a few hours before closing. read more

Rolling Smoke BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

Good BBQ, especially if you are looking for take out and comfort food. I highly recommend the burnt ends and baked beans. The pulled pork was extremely dry. The potato salad and coleslaw tasted the same, neither being very enjoyable. The coleslaw tasted bitter. The potato salad was watery and lacking in potatoes. Smoked turkey and brisket were pretty good, and my boyfriend liked his mac n cheese. The barbecue sauces were delicious, and the baked beans were probably the best part! Prices are reasonable for the portions, and we had leftovers! Would try again when a BBQ craving hits. read more

I really struggled with this review, because I would've given their food a 4 out of 5 stars. However, if I can't eat the food that I order for pick-up, then there's just no use. I expect wrong orders from McDonalds or Buger King, but I had THREE items on my take-out order, and I only received two of them. How is this possible? Just to confirm, this is the Dry Creek and University location. read more

Food was under cooked. Staff refused to refund me when I gave it back. Don't go unless you want food poisoning and to be abused by the cook who had a beard. Had to cause a scene to get my money back was threatened with security and the police just because the food was undercooked. read more

What a let down!!! Can't believe this is in The Stanley Markrtplace. Super dry smoked turkey sandwich, even the bbq sauce couldn't help the dryness. I took about 2 more bites and tried to see if it got better, gave a piece to someone with me. They saud wow thats bone dry! I just walked up to the trash and chucked it. Finished my lemonade, mins later heard sorry were out of lemonade. When for the sweet tea and barely got a 1/4 cup drizzled in my cup. The burnt ends were moist and not bad. Horrible 1st impression, the main reason i came was for this BBQ place. Will not return, just got the bad news they will be serving food at Red Rocks Amphitheatre this summer during events....ummm I'll stick with Biker Jims food when we go there!!! read more

I was out here from California I've had bbq in Missouri but I can say honestly best brisket I've ever had was here at rollin smoke

Brisket was on point and very tender. The smoked mac and cheese was simply out of this world. Really great BBQ and if I find myself back in the area of Stanley Marketplace I will certainly stop by and take home some more of this delicious smoked brisket and try a few more things on the menu. read more

In this new world we are living it's nice to know there are still places that have great food from before our new normal. I has the pulled pork and burnt ends plate with coleslaw and collared greens. All were very good. Discounts for cash. read more

Best bbq of my life!! The brisket with Carolina vinegar was out of this world. I literally had to be stopped from calling them on the phone old (pre yelp days) just to say BRAVO guys. Going back..possibly for dinner tonight. Incredible! read more

Way over-priced for mediocre BBQ. Yet another eatery in Stanley Marketplace over-estimating the incomes of the average family in Stapleton. It's ridiculous and shameful. All the shops at Stanley Marketplace are so expensive that they have essentially shut out the low-income neighborhoods that directly abut the facility to east and the south. read more

When I ate at Rolling Smoke at Dry Creek and University, I loved the food and service. I decided to use them to cater my backyard wedding celebration. Katrina was very helpful in taking my catering order. I then worked closely with Kara and Maile to pick out food choices. They are very personable and friendly. They offer a wide selection and many different side dishes. The portion sizes are large and all choice are amazing. When I went into finalize my order, Kara walked me through the delivery and set up. The food arrived on time and ready to go. Everybody loved it!!! I would definitely recommend Rolling Smoke for catering or eating out. Thank you Kara and Maile for helping to make my special day great! Robyn W. read more

There's a reason why this stand ran out of forks when they released their pulled pork and beef to the world at the Oh Hey! Yelp Summer Party. Because the damn meat was soooooooo bangin'. + their mild BBQ sauce was the key to my heart. The guy there was super nice. Sucks I can't get their names. Too many names to remember. Either way, they know who represented this booth. So go ahead and give him the shout out he very much deserves. I loved this. Some of the softest, breaded pulled pork ever. The sharp, yet delicate taste was seasoned with some mild garlic and salt. The mild BBQ was zesty on top. It was the most tender meat ever. I think I got like 5 samples. It was soooo good. I'm so happy I came to try them read more

Rolling Smoke BBQ - So I wouldn't forget who they were - Barbeque Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

There is a reason this place won best BBQ in Denver! I went to their grand opening at the Stanley Marketplace and WOW. Their pulled pork is so juicy and tender. I also enjoyed the smoked mac and cheese and baked beans as the sides. I think they are priced affordable and they offer a great service. Be sure to check out their food truck if you see them around town. I will need to check out the brisket on my next trip. read more

Rolling Smoke BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

Oh.my.lanta. I am not even that much of a BBQ fan, but this stuff I could eat every day. I got the burnt ends with the smoked mac and cheese. First of all, THANK YOU for having a good mac and cheese. I don't know why, but the mac seems to suck at most places around here. Also, the burnt ends made me want to use them in a bath product. Yes, I could bathe in them. Wow, I want them again right now. So crispy on the outside, but so amazingly tender on the inside, and popping with pig flavor. Drooooool. read more

Rolling Smoke BBQ - Burnt ends with smoked mac and cheese - Barbeque Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

It's Denver. So BBQ expectations aren't a mile high. This place has Ok burnt ends, and the brisket is a little bit dry. It will give you a fix, but meh. Meh. Ahhhhhhhhh where is there bbq out here?!?! read more

I was happy to try this option out at Stanley Marketplace! We ordered the three meat plate - brisket, pulled pork, and ribs and added the smoked mac & cheese and coleslaw. It was a solid meal and all of the individual items were great. The brisket is nice and moist but the pulled pork was probably my favorite. The smoked mac and cheese has a nice smoky flavor to it but it's not overwhelming. I would recommend the coleslaw since it's very crispy and the refreshing taste cuts through the heaviness of the other foods. read more

When I think of bbq in Colorado I think of franchise chains such as Famous Dave's and Jim and Nicks, that was until I happened to stumble upon Rolling Smoke during The Big Wonderful event and thought it was absolutely delicious. Since then I have ordered here quite a few times and it hasn't disappoint one bit. Their pulled pork is my favorite along with their smoked Mac and cheese. read more

Ribs were good, brisket was good. Mac and cheese was kinda greasy and separated. Great prices and nice staff. I'd come back. read more

I was really looking forward to this, but ended up being disappointed. We ordered the 3 meat plate with burnt ends, brisket, honey bourbon sausage, collard greens and green bean side of the day, and a side order of smoked mac and cheese. The employee was nice and friendly, but the brisket was honestly kind of dry and tough to eat. The sausage was fine, and i think the burnt ends were not bad. Without the bbq sauce, i don't think i would have made it through all the meat. The collards greens were OK, but i disliked the green bean casserole sidedish. Not much taste in it at all. The mac and cheese i thought for sure would be OK, but neither my kids nor my wife enjoyed that experience much. We have had smoked mac and cheese before, but something was off in this. It might just be personal preference with this being too smoky? Not sure, but it is the first time my kids passed on mac and cheese. My family did not like this, and thought 1-star. I'm giving 2 because i thought the burnt ends were pretty good. read more

Been here a couple of times within the past few of months. The food is delicious and consistent, the staff are courteous and the location is great with lots of other shops and restaurants nearby. Would definitely recommend is you're in the mood for BBQ. read more

Was in the mood for bbq and found this place on my way home. The pulled pork was very good and the brisket was just about perfect. There were some really tempting options for sides, but I'm trying to control my carbs, so I got the smoked collard greens and baked beans. The beans were meh, but the greens were divine. Definitely looking forward to going back on indulgence day and trying the smoked Mac & cheese. read more

Best BBQ in Denver without a doubt. Everything I've tried has been great but I especially love the pulled pork sandwich and the collard greens. read more

I checked these guys out for the first time at the Stanley Marketplace in Aurora. The setup is a counter you order from but they have tables just outside of it. We took our food to Cheluna and enjoyed some great fresh beers to go with our meals. I had a 2 meal combo with Burnt Ends and Pulled Pork. The two sides I got were the mac & cheese and baked beans. I really liked the Burnt Ends; I have been to Kansas City and had the real deal there and these held up pretty nicely to what I have had in the past. Also, not a lot of BBQ places in town do Burnt Ends, so if you are a Burnt Ends fan and they aren't out of them, get them. I also liked the sides as well; the mac and cheese was smoky, and the baked beans were solid. The pulled pork disappointed me a little bit. They were kind of mushy, like they had been sitting in liquid while being held. I am all for juicy meats but this seemed more kind of like mush than juicy. My wife got the Brisket and I was fortunate to sample! Wow, it was sooo good! It was really meaty and juicy. I was impressed with how tender and juicy it was considering it was the lean side of the brisket (as they use the fatty side to do Burnt Ends I would assume). The other thing that kind of is knocking my review down is the BBQ sauce. I just didn't like it. I wasn't able to try the spicy, but the regular was way too sweet and to me kind of overpowered the flavor of the meats. I tend to like BBQ sauce that is a little more tangy than sweet and I think this was a lot more sweet than tangy. Just a preference thing. Next time I go, I am going to skip the pork and the BBQ sauce and I am sure I will like that. But that's kind of the problem too because I shouldn't have to avoid anything. read more

BBQ was very good! Got the three meat combo of pork ribs, brisket, and hot links. The ribs were fall of the bone and perfectly smokey. The brisket was the perfect balance between meat and fat. The hot links were the best part. Had a nice snap to the casing and a good hear, not too much, but noticeable. Only reason for minus one star is because of the sides. Got the smoked bacon green bean casserole and the brisket chili. Both were just okay. read more

EASILY the BEST BBQ i have had in Colorado!!! I grew up in Missouri where BBQ is religion and living in Colorado its been truly difficult to find any decent BBQ. If youre from the South or anywhere Midwest thats known for BBQ and you are currently residing in CO you need this in your life! My ONLY constructive critism is that their coleslaw leaves a lot to be desired. Has all the right veggie bits just has no flavor or spice like youre use to if youre use to good BBQ. But the meat is on point!!! XD Roling Stone you guys rock and have filled a void in my lofe, spice up your coleslaw and your really be hoppin! :D read more

On our way from the Denver airport toward downtown we did a Yelp search for BBQ and found this place- I'm so glad we did! It's a stall in a pretty cool marketplace. This is super delicious BBQ. We had pulled pork sandwiches and ribs and both were some of the most tender BBQ meats we've ever had. I loved the slaw and the mac n cheese was delicious too. Great portions for the price and friendly service. I definitely recommend checking out the other stalls in the marketplace too, especially Miette et Chocolate for gourmet pastries! read more

Yay!!! I'm so happy they're open! My boyfriend heard about this place and said we absolutely had to try it. They were so right, it's awesome! We went there on a Wednesday evening and there was one person in line ahead of us. I got pulled pork and beans and they were delicious. The mac and cheese was awesome too and so smoky! I would definitely check this place out for good BBQ. read more

We usually buy food here every time we come to the Stanley to have beer at Cheluna. If I was to write this review a year ago, it would have been a 3 or 4 star. The food is excellent, but I was out of luck, always having the cuts I wanted be out of stock. I have been lucky or things are getting more organized as now I always get everything I ask for. They seem to have more employees and service is really friendly and nice. Now, let's talk about food. The burnt ends. The burnt ends! No words to describe how delicious these are. I am also a fan of pulled pork and their collared greens. I like that all these meets taste smoked and have no sauce, so I can add what I want and how much I want or none at all. They have a "help-yourself" sauce counter and I always get all their sauces. I am very impressed by their vinegar sauce. I am glad they survived Covid and it seems like they are thriving. Keep it up. Please, please, always have meat on hand until the last minute. I promise I will come and order it! read more

Live their burnt ends!!! Wish there was a non-pork/ non cheese-smothered side to choose from... but it is located in Stanley marketplace, so it is possible to piece a meal together by stopping in at different places. Again, delish meat!! read more

The best bbq I've ever tasted and the knowledgeable courteous staff make this business an A+++++++ If you haven't tried it, go now!!! Candy bacon!!!! Terry, Wade, Jason and others are incredible!! Stanley Marketplace is awesome, the food truck is even better! Hire them for a small gathering or huge wedding, I've been to both that they've catered and both were amazing because of Rolling Smoke! News articles and videos don't lie. This will be your favorite! read more

Update -- what the heck has happened? The last two times we've been the food has been bad. Tough meat and flavorless, greasy sides. Not just not good, bad. Nine months ago I wrote this - A little problem with these ribs. When I bring them home, they don't quite make it to the table. Best ribs in town! Pulled pork pretty good but is dry at times. Sauces amazing. Sides darn good. read more

THIS BBQ IS INSANE. And for a place inside Stanley Marketplace it's basically magical. Where are they pulling this food from? We got a meal deal at tried everything plus two sides for around $30. The smoked macaroni and cheese is unlike anything I've ever had and is everything I will dream about for weeks to come. The hot links were flavorful but not overly spicy and the chicken melted in your mouth. I'm normally a pulled pork or a brisket kinda girl and those were delicious too, but being impressed by the things I don't normally go for is harder, and they did it. read more

I'm a meatatarian. I can't help it; I've come to terms with my carnivorous persuasion. To get my fix, sometimes nothing will do but GOOD BBQ, and Rolling Smoke is the best BBQ in Colorado. I first discovered these guys when they were operating out of their food truck, but apparently the wheels are now a thing of the past as they focus on their brick and mortar locations in Aurora and Centennial. The owner also told me they're catering events. They provide the BBQ staples we all love-sausage, ribs, pork, brisket, and my personal favorite, burnt ends. Those flavorful, tender, smokey chunks of meat are better than bacon in my opinion, and that's really saying something! I might mention that if you're a fan of feathered fare, the offer smoked turkey rather then chicken. The sides are good, too. My go-tos are the mac and cheese and the potato salad. I do wish that cornbread was a thing here, but let's be real- it's not like I have room in my tummy for it anyway after a plate like this! read more

food was cold and the sauce is mediocre at best. bun on the pulled pork sandwich was dry and big. that was the wimpiest $14 sandwich I've ever had. the portion of meat left me hungry when I was done. meat was dry and a bit tough. the collard greens were decent but not enough to justify this lousy $20 meal. wouldn't recommend or eat again. for $14 you think they would at least give you some meat. it was all bun smh read more

I've been in Denver 5 months and have frequented this place many a times since. This place is nestled inside of Stanley Market and they always sell out of their brisket so that should tell you something. Yeah, it's good, but this place goes beyond the food. I ordered their burnet ends one day and was lucky enough for them to not be sold out. The guy took one look at the brisket and flat out told me to order something else because he didn't want to sell me a dried out brisket. Don't think a lot of places would do that and it was much appreciated. Side note, the hot links and chicken are actually good too, but always play second fiddle to ribs and brisket. read more
