What’s up with the name??

Goosetown is named for a historic bar in Golden, Colorado. A German immigrant, Julius Shultz, originally built the Goosetown Tavern in 1873. Upon demolition of the original bar in 1998 John Hickenlooper, founder of the Wynkoop Brewing Company, former Denver Mayor, Colorado Governor, and Colorado Senator, salvaged the bars and booths and restored them in the Goosetown Tavern.

Fast Forward to today at the Goosetown Tavern BBQ, where we cook our meats slow and low using a post oak powered smoker. We offer juicy brisket, yummy pulled pork, smoked meat tacos and vegan BBQ tofu sandwiches. We have much more to offer in addition to BBQ including Nashville Hot Dry Rub Wings, Chicken Sandwiches, Creamy White Cheddar Mac-n-Cheese, Fried Okra, and our super tasty Smashburger. See our menu here.
