As most of ya know, I try to find the mom and pop places to eat and stay away from chain restaurants. Friendly home town places are great and the people are fantastic. I try and stay away from tourist places like downtown Durango. But the Mexican Family restaurant on the north side of town was great. Also the Texas BBQ on the north side of hwy 160 was not too bad.

Always visit Guadalajara Mexican Restaurant in Spearfish. Woody's in Golden. Beau Jo's anywhere you can find one. The one in Rapid City closed. Bird Dog BBQ in Springs and also Rudy's (technically a chain but the only one in Colorado). Also Que Pasa Cantina and Firehouse Brewery in Rapid. Usually in Grand Junction I'm hitting a fast food place, but the Ale House has never treated me wrong. Jimmy'z is a unique little burger joint in GJ. Really liked Steamworks Brewing in Durango. Raider Ridge in Durango for breakfast burritos. Can't remember my place in Alamosa... it's been a while. Pueblo I'm usually hitting a chain since there are so many near campus. Palisades in Gunnison is basically the only place I ever go.

Sommerset is 36 miles east down I-90 from Spearfish. There you will find JRs Rhodehouse BBQ Pit. It's worth the trip.

Someone mentioned Beau Jos Pizza on an earlier post. If you travel to Golden/School of Mines, there's a Beau Jos about 30 minutes away in Idaho Springs. The original, I believe. On the main drag and easy to find. Old building with tons of Old West character. Used to drive from Denver just for the atmosphere and ambience. Definitely worth the drive for a Mountain Pie.

Some of the places my traveling buddy and I have hit include:
Charlie's in Las Vegas, NM. My favorite
I can't remember the name of the casino, but there is a buffet in Deadwood with amazing prime rib and snow crab. Great stop when in SD for BHSU or SD Mines
Mario's Pizza in Gunnison
Calvillo's Mexican in Alamosa
Runza any trip to Nebraska
Fat Boy BBQ in Canyon, TX. (If we ever play down there again we'll have to hit Coyote Bluff Grill in Amarillo. I have heard multiple rave reviews.)
