Lulu's BBQ

This was some really great BBQ! I've eaten so much bad BBQ I usually just make my own these days but I was visiting my brother who lives in Louisville and he vouched for this place. As it turned out, they served me the best smoked turkey I've ever had, and that includes the stuff I've had at famous places in TX/ I also really loved the rib tips. Their take on that was super tasty. The service was great and the only gripe I have is that I wish there'd been a bit more on my platter for the price.

My review was 6 years old so I figured it was time for a new one. Lulu`s BBQ is some of the best in the state and luckily for me I live 2 miles away. The ribs are great, they are meaty and very flavorful. Their sausage is out of this world and they make it in house. Another thing they do super well is their turkey, some of my favorite turkey around. they also have brisket nachos which are some of the best nachos in town. Most of their meat is so good and tender that no extra sauce is needed. Service is friendly and quick with everyone taking care of you. 5 stars after all these years!

A very solid BBq joint! Really loved the pulled pork and half chicken. Those were perfect. The brisket, turkey and rib tips are really good as well. They have the usual yummy sides and have a rotating option for veggies of the day. Three sauce options - liked all three but found the hot one my top selection.

This has got to be some of the best BBQ meats my family has had in a long time - and we are a family of particular people, so it’s saying a lot that NOT one of us had a complaint - delicious! And their BBQ sauces are such a great surprise, just makes this a great meal!

Classic Texas style BBQ in Colorado. Family meal, means FAMILY meal. Portions are generous on sides. Pulled pork, brisket, and turkey are the top proteins. Server was very kind and attentive!

The food is great. The ribs and brisket, while smoked are lightly smoked so there is no bitterness that comes from over smoking. This was the second time I’ve had takeout from there and each time one small item was missing, this time it was cornbread which was a shame as their cornbread is fantastic. When doing takeout be sure to have 2 people go. One to drive and the other to pick up as parking is tight.

The pulled pork sandwich is pretty good but watch out for large pieces of bone and cartilage! I definitely wasn’t expecting that in a sandwich. Maybe put a warning on the menu or something if this can sometimes happen.

Texas boy here giving a proper shout out to this establishment. This place hits get the sampler take some home briskets banging, ribs are deli table sausage if it isn’t made in house is from a local purveyor and is on point. Grab a beer a beer with your meal and prepare walk this meal off around beautiful downtown

Cool little spot. Food came out quick. Bathrooms clean. Great customer service. Kid friendly. I'm here for a softball tournament and I would bring the whole team here next time.

We really wanted to love this place--but after two tries, we're done. We ordered the family platter for six (twice now, years apart), and both times the experience was unfortunately the same: great sides, but the meat was nearly inedible. The first time, we were given a credit (which we didn't end up using because so much time had passed), and in between we've actually had good meals dining in. That made us hopeful things had improved. But this past Saturday, the brisket and pulled pork were so dry and tough that we ended up throwing them out. Even the sausage, which was the most edible of the meats, was chewy and dense. We were really excited for a great BBQ meal, but my family only ended up eating the sides--and they were pretty grumpy about it. To be honest, it's hard to understand how food that dry and overcooked made it out of the kitchen. We're not looking for anything in return, but I do think the owners would want to know. Great BBQ should be tender, flavorful, and make you want to come back--not make you feel like you wasted your money. We won't be ordering again.

Food was absolutely amazing! We ordered the smoked wings and fatty brisket never disappoints! Great service indoor and outdoor. Owners are friendly as well as the staff! You gotta get here!

The Mac and cheese is 10/10!!! Definitely a must! The cornbread with the sweet butter is also good. The salad was hugeeeee. The trio sliders was great, they let you pick 3 different meats for each if you like! I did turkey, brisket and chicken! The sauces are also so good. Plenty of seating indoors and out!

I love bbq!!! This place is sooo good! We drive an hour sometimes just to go here. Love the atmosphere - when it's warm / open air. Waitresses will close the tent flaps on the patio if you ask though. Food typically comes out quickly and service is always friendly. Our family loves it- got the 4 person family platter so we could have leftovers. Brisket is what we came for but also had ribs - both soooo tasty! The cornbread with cinnamon sugar butter- heck ya! Fried okra with homemade ranch and comes with coleslaw too. Kids liked the Mac and cheese. Kids loved the slushie strawberry lemonade. I loved my sangria slushee .

WOW! I cannot believe I've been in Colorado for nearly five years now and have not known about Lulu's! I'm from Texas, and haven't found anything close to TX BBQ, until now! I have been telling anyone and everyone and now I'm telling you, go to Lulu's today. I had brisket from the point (fatty cut), ribs, rib tips, mac & cheese, sweet potato fries and fried oakra. I absolutely cannot wait until I go back, our waitress, Ashley M. & the host were both super friendly and welcoming! Spacious seating too! Keep up reminding me of home please!! Thank you for the experience!

This trip not worth the time to type this review. The brisket was tough, chewy, sausage below average and the fried okra overcooked. If it was for the Mac and cheese and the chicken it would be a total flop. The server was one of the other saving graces to the evening. He asked and I was honest and he asked if we would like him to take care of the meal and we said no. It's the thought that counts. But this trip was not the same experience as twice before.

So happy we took a recommendation for this place! The food was great (special mentions for the smoked sausage and fried pickles), the drinks were so refreshing, and the restaurant itself has such a friendly and casual atmosphere. Service was also really great even on the weekend! Can't wait for warm weather and frozen drinks on the patio!

Wow... how far they have fallen. Yeah. Had the sampler platter. Brisket was well done - yes, dry and brown The turkey wasn't much better The sausage was ok... None of it was like I remembered from the multiple times being here. Everyone has their bad days but I wouldn't have served that brisket to anyone.

Great appetizer choices, great choices in general. Don't know if it was because I was later in the day or just because the brisket is not that good, mine was really dry, Mac n cheese was crazy good. Chili w queso was good, cornbread was awesome, just missing that brisket for a 5 star , loved the inside of the restaurant too, personal bias for bbq places too.

Definitely been wanting to try this place but I'm never up north. Went to a farm nearby and this was a 20 min drive not too far away so planned lunch here. We got the 1/2 and 1/2 meat platter for 2 of us and upcharged brisket and ribs for $5 more. I asked for Point brisket and when we got the plate I could tell it was Flat it seemed like it had been cut and out for awhile. The ribs were fantastic fall of bone juicy tender ton of flavor. When I told waitress about flat she apologized and brought out FRESH point right away and it was totally different experience. Tasty, juicy and delish. Overall solid place if I'm around again I would try. Suggestions is to up their bread game with maybe Texas toast or a Jalapeño cheese bread, even some big rolls or cornbread rolls. The cornbread slice we got was meh was too crumbly. Also some homemade seasonal pies with fresh crust would be great, I saw on menu online but at store they had only a key lime made in house with a frozen crust that was meh... I would have loved a peach pie or apple ala mode to finish meal,

Best BBQ in Denver area. Use real post oak, nice pink ring; brisket, spare ribs, chicken... ALL smoked and seasoned to BBQ perfection. Definitely will return.

Nice bbq and ambiance. Friendly staff and service, i would definitely recommend this place

Solid barbecue chicken and brisket. Brisket nachos straight fire. Spicy chicken sandwich very good. House salad with pulled chicken very good. All three barbecue sauces solid. Food served extremely fast. Sit down and be served format type BBQ restaurant.

What a fantastic meal, we ordered a platter for six to come so much food. We ordered the brisket, turkey, okra, broccoli we had sweet potato fries, delicious coleslaw, and unbelievable cornbread. Absolutely delicious. Our waiter was wonderful and our check-in gal, Lily was lovely. We had a couple of children with us and the weight staff was very patient. Highly recommend this fun fun place in a very lively little area.

The BBQ mix, kalua pig and rice, and katsu chicken are my favorites, very tasty, and they're portions are generous!

Staff couldn't be bothered and food was ok. They were out of a lot of items for it to be 5-6 pm. Probably won't go back but it's nicely decorated

Well, my last visit was far from great. Why do they stay open until 9 if they runout of food by 8? The previous time, my friend could not get to eat there by 7, they were told the kitchen had nothing left. I wish they'd told us they were out of most items before we ordered drinks, we'd have picked another place for dinner. So, that Saturday around 8, after getting drinks, things went downhill fast. When ordering, we were told they'd run out of sausage, bad luck, my pick for dinner. A friend, my husband and I then opted for sliders. Another one got the tofu which she says is great and looked tasty. I should have followed her advice. A little later the waiter came back saying they'd runout of a couple of the meats on top of the sausages. So we get what's left. He come back again saying they were out of buns. At this point it's so ridiculous, it's almost funny. My husband decides to switch to the green chili. Now the meat, I guess they make it fresh each day, but the buns??? Our poor waiter comes back again to announce that they only had a tiny bit left of the green chili, lucky my husband told him he wasn't that hungry. I thought green chili tasted better with time, they make just enough for the day? Fortunately, by then I was pretty happy with my very strong margarita, who cares about eating anymore... In the end, somehow I got buns, don't know where they found them but my friend had no such luck, her meat was piled under one bun and she was charged for a sandwich which is more expensive than sliders and not even what she wanted. So they runout and automatically upgrade the order and the price without asking? Who knows... And to top it all, they runout of some of the beers. My husband was not too impressed with his reduced selection of beer and smaller size of green chili (although to be fair he was given a discount after asking for it, would they have charged for the full otherwise?) As for the food by itself, the meat was good but nothing great. The BBQ sauce (3 kinds) tasty. It seems like what is available on the menu drinks and food is quite random, and the prices you are charged might also depend on the weather. The question is: is it worth the trouble?

Very mediocre BBQ. Honestly could have went to Lucille's and gotten the same level of satisfaction. It's not bad and the atmosphere/decor is pretty cool since it's in this little main street/downtown area. Got the combo with ribs, brisket, and sausage. Ribs and brisket were ok but kind of dry. The sausage was solid...that's why I always get the sausage when ordering a combo at a BBQ place... even if the other items aren't good it's pretty hard to mess up a sausage

I like that it has a full bar bc sometimes I wanna drink. Overall the food was middle of the road. It was dry. I'd come back for the pulled pork nachos w/ green chile and the drinks

Fun atmosphere, great food & service! We had dinner here early on a Friday night. I'm glad we went early because by the time we left, there looked like there was a line out the door. The bar is a horseshoe and connects the patio to the inside seating area, which is pretty cool! They have a great selection of drinks and bbq food! It is not the greatest bbq I've ever had but, it was definitely good and I would return. (My husband and I are a little picky with bbq because we have a smoker at home.)

Food was just ok. We started with the fried pickles which were very tasty. The spicy ranch that came with it was yummy. For the main course we ordered the brisket and chicken platter with Mac & cheese as the side. The brisket was very dry and tough which we were really disappointed about. However, the spicy bbq sauce added a lot of flavor to the meats.

This is a place I have to visit once every time I visit Denver. The servers here are some of the nicest people ever and are always ready to service you. The food is the best bbq I've ever had. Particular the ribs, they are just amazing. Pro tip: if you order brisket, ask for fatty brisket (better than lean IMO). Mac and cheese and chips were a good complement, all 3 of the sauces paired very well with the meats.

Yummy ribs. Cole slaw and garlic mashed potatoes were awesome. Drinks were good too. No skimpy pours. Great service as well.

Now that we have a baby we are trying to find more family friendly date night/ day activities so we can get the babe and ourselves used to taking him out in public. I remember selling Lulu's BBQ bus light bottles like 6 years ago when I was in the beer industry and I remember thinking I wanted to try them out, though at the time we lived very far south so it never came to fruition. Now however living less than 20 min when my partner asked what we should do this past weekend I knew BBQ would be not only tasty but a casual environment to take the babe out and not be nervous or anxious about it. The staff was super friendly and offered him a booster seat immediately which again I very much appreciated even though he's still a tad too young. Unless you have a baby it would be hard to tell so I really appreciate the prompt offer so if you do have a child that can fit in one you won't have to go searching/struggle to find seating for your kid. Vibe was cute, and BBQesque as I remember. The server recommended a Texas slush as in true ADHD fashion I could not make up my mind on what to drink and that was a winner for sure. Not something I would have gravitated too but so good- 6oz of house lager topped with frozen margarita. I recommend giving it a try. They have a good tap list for local beers and some nice cocktails. Now on to the food. We both got a 2 item plate so we could try all the items we were interested in - ribs, brisket, pulled pork, and smoked sausage. I have to say Not a single meat disappointed however those ribs man... they were so succulent. Fall off the bone and tender. I honestly didn't even put sauce on them because they were so good they didn't even need it!! And I have to say we had a decent amount of leftovers and that smoked sausage in some eggs the next day was *chefs kiss* beyond that their sides are pretty damn good too! The potato salad has fresh dill which I love, and the ranch style beans were smoking and meaty and delicious. Honestly this spot is going to be a regular in our rotation because it's such a great vibe, great food, and an all around enjoyable time especially if you have kids

I wish I could eat their brisket and mac and cheese for every meal, every day. Consistently excellent. One of my go-tos to impress visitors. Great, friendly service every time I go.

The food is delicious. The prices also aren't expensive, and Happy hour has even better deals. The food also came out quickly, and there was no wait.

Have been here twice and the barbecue is a little drier than I was expecting but tender and tasted great. Had ribs both times. Always seems to be busy with a short wait for a table, so you know the food is good to be this popular. Service from the bar while we waited was great. Service at the table was lacking and that may because it is always quite busy.

We were visiting Louisville, Colorado to see our grandson perform a concert. Louisville, Colorado is a small town which is located Southeast of Boulder, Colorado. It started as a mining town, and has a very small but cool downtown area with restaurants and bars. We stopped into Lulu's, we weren't hungry, but wanted a drink prior to the concert which was being held at the Steinbaugh Pavilion. We were directed to the outdoor patio. The staff were all nice and friendly and the space was very cool. I want to return and have some BBQ, as it looked yummy, and being a Southern girl, I love BBQ.

The food was good but the menu is confusing the entree came with either chips or slaw and $1.00 up charge for a different side. I was confused and thought it came with chips and slaw so I went with the slaw and okra and I thought it was a $1.00 up charge but no it was $4.50 more. I'm not sure if the confusion is on purpose or not but it needs to be changed on the menu

Great food, service, and really laid back vibe. The fried pickles and green chili queso apps were spot on.

The best bbq ever! We got the three meat sampler platter with brisket, chicken, and turkey! The brisket was awesome and so tender! The chicken was also amazing! The turkey was the best turkey I've ever had! It was so so flavorful and juicy and amazing! We had sides of garlic mashed potatoes and fried okra. Both were also amazing! I love the three different bbq sauces they have and I especially loved the spicy one! For dessert we had the key lime pie and cornbread sundae. Both were amazing but I loved the key lime pie a bit more. It was perfectly silky and not overly sweet! Highly recommend this awesome bbq place!

One of our first ever Colorado bbq joints. Was good. Very busy. Not sure how extraordinary it was compared to bbq we have had in the past; however, was still good and fresh. To be honest: Based on wait I thought it would be better, but still hit the spot after the wait. Bonus the town is very cute

First time visitor ... Bbq ribs melted in my mouth! The Cole slaw was okay and the sweet potato fries were delicious. Service and ambiance were good also.

Great BBQ with a great location and relaxed decor. Get there before they run out. Tasty, fast, and excellent outdoor seating options both in front and out back.

Their food is so good and if you're in Louisville, the location couldn't be better. Very walkable (which is good because of how much food you'll eat). I always get the Mac and cheese and some plain chicken and couldn't be happier! Would definitely recommend.

We have been coming to Lulu's barbecue for absolutely years... It's right on the corner of Main Street in Pine right at the center of Louisville... On summer days we have the best time sitting and watching the cars... Because it's a central point of Louisville. Service is always extremely good and very quick... The food is always delicious I have never had a bad meal at Lulu's over the course of the many years we have been coming here... I really enjoyed the deep Eddy iced tea... Especially on a hot summer day... The beer is always cold... The food is always delicious... Coming off that smoker it's super tender and your choice of barbecue sauces is perfect for every taste

Heck yeah!! Absolutely love this gem! Drinks are delicious! Servers are fantastic!! I get the meat sweats and my mouth waters every time I even think about Lulu's!! The fried okra is my favorite side! I cannot find fried okra on many menu anywhere so this is a big + for me!!

Easily some of the best tofu I've ever had. They deep fried it and it was crispy and flavorful. The Mac and cheese was seasoned so well. Their bbq sauces complemented the meal perfectly. Service was wonderful with a kind and attentive waitress. I'll be back for the tofu and to try more of the sides!

The service is good, however...My boyfriend and his sister and I went last night for dinner. We all order the same things, brisket sandwiches with chips, my boyfriend got sweet potato fries instead of chips though. The brisket was very dry. Seasoning on the chips was not distributed very well. We also noticed there were lots of flies around. We all ended up having a rough night, with all of us not feeling well, in the middle of the night. My boyfriend getting the worst of it. I don't think the sickness could have been anything else as only my boyfriend and I live together and we haven't seen his sister in 3 months. This was the only thing we all did together and all ended up feeling terrible after. Won't be coming back unfortunately.

I LOVE my BBQ but sadly was not a fan of Lulus. Pricy and loud for lunch. Tried the 3 meat plate $17 with 3 sm ribs +$5, 4 slices of lean brisket +$3 and 3 slivers of turkey with slaw. Extra sides of potato salid and sweet potato fries. $40 for two for lunch with water! Extra plate provided without asking. Pepsi products. Meats were just average. Street parking difficult, small free city lot in back. Too many better spots to eat for me.

This place hit the spot! My fiancé had the half rack of ribs and licked them clean. I had the brisket which was awesome. Mac and cheese was good and the cornbread is perfect. Staff was friendly and service was great!

Best BBQ in Louisville. I love this spot with all my heart (and stomach). The service is all ways fantastic and the trip of BBQ sauces allows for insane flavor combos.

Food was great, fall off the bone ribs. Large bones and mild sauce. Easy location to find, and friendly staff. Beans are on the spicy side. Atmosphere is very southern with their music.

Lulu's is a really good BBQ place. Not the best I've ever had (but hard to compare to great places in Austin, Chicago etc.) but still really good. I got the sampler plate so that I could try everything and the beef brisket and smoked sausage were awesome and the pulled pork was pretty good too. The max and cheese (which I got for my son but tried) was very bland and nothing to write-home about. Their beer selection was pretty good too, so if you're in the mood for some good BBQ and beer check out Lulu's BBQ!

Visiting my son's family in Louisville and returned to Lulu's last night. Lulu's is always a must. We had a delicious meal. The fried pickles appetizer is fantastic. A few pounds of pulled pork and brisket with sides of Mac and cheese and those delicious smoky baked beans really hit the spot. Staff are terrific as well.

Pretty delicious, the meat platter was tasty and tender. Good space for parties, felt clean. The shredded pork and ribs were a bit too salty and the coleslaw could have used more flavor. Front range seems lack on good BBQ but this place is Definitely worth a try

Best BBQ. The service and the food are amazing. We get the Smoked chicken and ribs when we go. My son also loves the sweet potato fries. Give them a try and they won't disappoint.

YEAHHHHHHH come here it's so yum i want to bring it home to family all the way in california. i would serve this meal to my newborn child. just get it
