Lived in Boulder when I was a kid and we loved KT's. Glad to see the food is just as good a decade later!

Just ok bbq but the price is reasonable for what you get. I had a pulled pork sandwich and slaw both were just average and maybe yesterdays offering because it didn't seem fresh. Ok for a quick stop but I won't be going out of my way for a repeat visit. The people working there don't appear to enjoy their jobs because tbere was no smiles and only mumbled communication.

It's surprisingly hard to find good BBQ in Boulder. I enjoy how it is never overly crowded and the food is consistent. This place cures my cravings and is appropriate for it's price. There BBQ salad is a great deal and lets me believe I am eating something healthy. But I have not had anything I didn't enjoy yet. The only thing that sticks out for me is there overall cleanliness. I guess it's easier to forgive due to their style of food for some reason.

Great food at a great price! Family meal was more than enough for our family of four. Pork was moist and brownies were huge. The three sauces were well flavored. The mild was definitely mild, medium was a step up and the liquid fire had awesome flavor with a good amount of heat! Cole slaw was homemade and wonderful. Baked beans were a bit spicy for not being labeled as such. Staff was fast and friendly. Environment was rustic, just what you would expect from a bbq joint!

Stopped because we were in the area. It was ok barbecue, but no Carolina style sauce was a bummer for me. The smell was fantastic as we walked up. We enjoyed the small place vibe, but not worth driving out of our way for a return trip. At least they are a coke place. My favorite part? Key lime pie in a cup. Awesome!

If I can't get to Rudy's near San Antonio, then this is my national next-best answer to a hankerin' for the real deal in BBQ. Both brisket and pork are fresh and smoky. They cook in the dry style without all sorts of sweet snot charred on as is the case with so many posers. Do they have other meats like ribs? Likely, but who cares? It's the pork, people from the pork people! I've been eating at Kirk & Trisha's cluster of BBQ outlets in the boulder area since they started and they're still true to their word. The sauces are great and most are vinegar based instead of sugar based. I especially like my pork sandwich in their "Elvis Special" incarnation, with slaw on top of the meat. Yum.

Came by tonight at 635 and waited for over 10 minutes while 2 employees sat idle and 1 packed a large order. I was completely ignored not even greeted.or asked to wait so I eventually left. Last week I came and got a big.order for.my business and 2 sandwiches were missing. I have been coming for over 10 years when they were in the old house. Their food and service used to be good.

I have had many good experiences there, but also had one bad one. That one was addressed by the owner. I had one experience where I used on of their sauces, the spout was dried and clogged, and the lid was barely on, squeezing it, caused sauce to go everywhere. The workers that were there did nothing. After writing to the owner, he apologized, paid for shirt cleaning and paid for a couple future lunches. All reasonable I felt, On a whole, I like the food, and will be back.

2012 Review # 60: I don't think there's anything wrong with KT's. I'm just not sure how it really stacks up in BBQ-land. Prices are on the high side for lunch, with a meal landing you somewhere around $10. I tend to get the sandwich with half the amount of meat, which has some sort of cute name but is basically a kid's size. In reality it's like a normal size. I think it comes with a side, of which I've tried the beans and coleslaw. They're both fine. Beans are on the underseasoned side. For meats I've tried the chicken and pork. The chicken is mostly dark meat, chopped with the skin on, which to me is a little weird. It was on the greasy side, even with the sauce. The pork was, to me, tough. I know it's pulled and all, but it just didn't have the tenderness that I equate with pulled pork BBQ. The flavor is mainly in the sauce. I tend to get the spicy sauce and it is also fine, but not spicy enough for me. The buns for the sandwiches don't seem to be made in-house. Basically, everything here is fine. Nothing wrong with it, but for close to $10 I'd probably go elsewhere unless I really want BBQ flavors.

Love the sauces, pork ribs, coleslaw (and I usually don't like slaw) and family take-out combo. Beef is just eh. Pork is pretty good but needs sauce because otherwise would be too dry.
(4)Nastassia D.
I'm definitely a fan of this place. Every time I eat here I leave satisfied. My favorite combo is the pig pile with coleslaw and chopped pickles. This is not the type of food I eat everyday, but this place always tames my cravings for BBQ.
(4)Jamie G.
Good BBQ joint the links and brisket are the best the pulled pork is ok. Been here several times and never unsatisfied.
(3)Vicky P.
A great place to get some quick BBQ! Their variety of sauces are all fantastic and the meat (beef, pork, ribs, etc.) just falls apart. The key lime pie in a cup is incredible as well!
(5)Brad M.
I'm a fan of their pork, bbq beans and sauces. I love their June Bowls, which is a pafait-styled bowl with meat on the bottom, sauce, your choice of sides, topped with more meat, sauce and your choice of sides. Top it Elvis-style and you'll be a happy camper!

Well, this is for all intents and purposes the original KT's, although some years ago it moved from ~64th & Arapahoe to its current location. We had only been to the 13th St. Boulder location all this time, but yesterday my son treated me to dinner at this location. Since I seldom eat meat, I am not the best person to review BBQs, period. KT's is a Memphis-style BBQ. The owners obviously created KT's with much love and care and grew it slowly into what it is today. There's really nothing wrong with KT's. Good sauce, good BBQ, good side dishes. Great for catering, which we experienced when my daughter graduated from high school, and at a Longmont friend's wedding reception. As far as true soulfulness and the authentic BBQ feel goes, though, Daddy Bruce's (run by his son!) further west on 20th and Arapahoe really takes the cake.

I was pretty stoked to grab lunch here- after reading the prior reviews. Unfortunately, things didn't go so well... I called in a pick up order and the lady on the phone was nice. Good start. When I arrived, I waited in line for over 5 minutes, which was disappointing because I had previously ordered. Got the food at around $9- a pulled pork sandwich, chips, beans, and a Sprite. Brought it back to the office, opened it up, and thought "this is all?" The sandwich was small, the side of beans equal to 5 spoon fulls, and a tremendous lack in flavor. To top it all off, after finishing my meal, I dumped the ice from the Sprite into the sink and found a dead ant stuck to an ice cube. I love BBQ, but I will not be going back.

The only reason I give two stars is because the staff was friendly. The indoor seating isn't set up very well - when a line formed, people's butts were on our table. I'm from NC, so I know a thing or two about bbq. I was excited to try KT's because we'd been told to go there several times, and Colorado has some of the best meat I've tasted so far. Well, sadly, I feel that KT's must do everything they can to zap the flavor from that meat. Since we hadn't been there before, we ordered almost everything: brisket, ribs, chopped pork, and hot links. The hot links weren't bad, but everything else was tasteless, and the sauces left a bit to be desired. It's as if they boiled the meat, rather than smoked it, as there was no smoke taste. If you know bbq, you won't want to go here.

Had lunch from here today. I am a BBQ connoisseur so was curious to try this place out after various reports I have heard. Got to try a sampling of meats plus side's. The pulled pork and beef brisket was top notch. Had them both with the Texas sauce and was hard to pick a favorite. The beans were tasty, not too spicy and just right for me. The potato salad was also made up to perfection. Overall I would rate this place above average compared to other places I have had BBQ. Both meats had just the right smoke to them giving them flavor but not over doing it and drying it out. Will be back again in the future no doubt.

I like this place - the family pack "to go" is a staple of our dinner repertoire. Stopped in the other night with the kids to "eat in" for the first time. I was pleasantly surprised to learn they had milk as one of the drink options (I'm not a huge fan of my kids - or me - drinking soda). The chicken is usually dry and needs a lot of sauce. This time I got the pork, which was nice and tender. Very friendly staff. I wish they had more vegetable side options (I don't think red-skinned potatoes really counts).
(4)Kevin M.
I went there yesterday, which was a Tuesday. They had a special going where you order 2 sides and get Pork spare rips for a buck a bone. I got a half a rack for under $10. The ribs were tender and falling off the bone. I don't think you can get this good of BBQ at these prices anywhere else. Plus they have the perfect size Key Lime pie to cleanse your palette after such a heavy meal. No need to go to TEXAS when you have KTs!
(5)Cori C.
Super friendly counter service. Great tasting meats and sauces. The two sides I had were kirk's killer beans and mashed red potatoes, and both were delicious! My spareribs could have been a tiny more juicy, but overall a great dining experience!

I've been going to KTs since they were at 64th & Arapahoe, and Kirk and Tricia worked the counter and the kitchen. I now go to this east Arapahoe location a couple times a month at least, for a take-home dinner. The family pack is a good deal, and if you visit regularly, get a card. I regularly get free Mike's baskets, or most recently, a free Family Pack. The counter staff is of varying quality - sometimes the music is a little off my preference and a little too loud. But the barbeque is my favorite - chicken and pork, plus mashed, slaw and hot-link sides. I used to be a big fan of the Killer Beans, less so now. Brownies are almost always very good. Our family's "Sweet Tea" fans were glad to see this added to the offerings recently. They rate it as high as Chick Fil'a's Sweet Tea. Good food, reasonable prices. Atmosphere so-so.

Great quick BBQ! For those gluten free folk there meat is gluten free! Ask about the sauces as only a few are gluten free. These people know whats in there food. If they didn't use Sysco Worcester and just the original Lea and Perrins Worcester they'd be all allright. Mikes basket with a huge brownie for a side, can't go wrong.
(5)Rebecca J.
I had the "Mike's Basket" with pork. The meat was extremely dry, and for the claim of being smoked for 12 hours, it was next to tasteless. We ordered 5 take-out meals, and each one was incorrect. Will not be going back.
