After seeing an ad about an anniversary for this spot in the Denver North Star, I was reminded how much our family enjoyed take out from there when we first moved into the Berkeley Regis neighborhood. As such, when we were able to "do it again", we found the same flavorful, moist chicken and ribs. And be sure to try the beans and cole slaw, along with the free fixin's on the counter. The orange colored sauce combines tangy and spicy! read more

Really good BBQ!!!! Great take-out for covid19 stay at home order! So tired of my own cooking and so awesome to have a delicious meal delivered! And, as usual, I always order enough for leftovers... lunch today was AMAZING!!!! Thank you! Thank you! We will be ordering again soon!! read more

Excellent BBQ! Mix the sweet and hot sauce for yummiest sauce ever. Ribs and Smoked Pork are delicious, brisket and burnt ends are on point. Collards and potato salad are amazing. Mac and Cheese could use a bit mor flavor, but I still order every time. Customer service is beyond hospitable, and I was in the business for over 24 years...only place I go for BBQ in town! read more

Unarguably the best BBQ restaurant in Denver. The staff is great and the food is even better. I was walking home after a long day at school with some of my friends and we were practically dying of hunger and we decided to stop in this restaurant. We got the burnt ends and we noticed it was too expensive but the lady running the register took $6 off the total. This place doesn't look like much, But it is. If you live in the Berkely, Denver area, give it a try. read more

BBQ is very good in a very small place located on SW side of 43rd and Lowell in older strip center. Pepsi products. Family owned. Some items run out by 6pm. 5 homemade sauses to try. The Hogpile is the number one seller,one meat - 2 sides $11. Lots of carry out at this location. read more

This place was amazing! Service was fast and friendly, and the food was absolutely delicious. Great selection of sauces. Feels like being in your family's house. Can't recommend enough! read more

Being from Texas I'm not saying I know what authentic BBQ taste like, but I am. This place is Tremendous! Just alone I'd be willing to pay more than what I did. Great food at low prices, it doesn't get much better than that. But what would a place be without customer service? This place has Stellar customer service! Colleen has the most beautiful smile and is soo friendly! So if you're in the mood for some delicious BBQ come here !!!! read more

The Ragin' Hog is delicious, traditional, and completely unpretentious. If you're looking for a down-home southern meal, this is the spot. The pulled pork sandwich is as delicious as it is classic. This is a great place to order from or to swing by for lunch. read more

This is hands down the best BBQ I've tried in Colorado. They never disappoint with quality and quantity. My regular is the 3 meat combo with brisket, burnt end, and ribs with mac and cheese and collard greens. read more

I am from KCMO and I kinda judge BBQ a little hard because I come from the BBQ capital of the USA! But this place is really good. The burnt ends are amazing and the potato salad is OMG GOOD! I don't recommend the sauce but I usually use Gates BBQ sauce from Kansas City. Again, I love my BBQ. read more

Not really a review but I'm wondering if your pork has antibiotics? I have a severe allergy to penicillin and most bbq joints use standard hogs it would be nice to know if your meat is antibiotic free, natural or organic? read more

Excellent BBQ and really enjoyed their sauces. I though the buffalo short ribs were a little dry. Though never having had them before, this might be normal. The brisket was great and pork ribs were perfect. Coleslaw and Mac n cheese were perfect balance for sides. Get here early as tables filled up quickly as the time approached noon... Also, they smoke limited amount of meats for service each day, so once it's gone, it's gone. read more

Ragin' Hog BBQ - Full rack combo - Barbeque Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Best BBQ restaurant I have found in the Denver area in the 20yrs I have been here. I'm from Texas and like a good think sweet sauce which they have, but it's nice to have other options as well and they are all good. Everything we have eaten from here has been delicious from the desserts to the sides to the meat. Cant go wrong!! read more

Mom took us there befOre the rodeo. We had the best meal. They had several a sauces to Choose from. I liiked the Georgia style sauce. Great pick Ma! read more

Had to search for a lunch place while in the area for a baseball tournament at Regis University. Couldn't find much online but came across Ragin and we decided to try this small BBQ place. Was really surprised at how good the BBQ was and how nice the people are. Best part is they let you put your own sauce on it and have 5 to choose from (Georgia, Memphis, Carolina, Hot and Sweet) sitting table side. Very down home BBQ and I heard 2 other people say it was the best food they had in a long time. Had a lemon cookie with the combo meal and that was great too. Probably well known to locals but check it out if you are searching for food like we were. read more

Excellent pulled pork, brisket, sides, and custard pie dessert. Ribs good but not great, as they had no rub or glaze. In general, very good. read more

The hotlinks were delicious and the sauces were great. The owners are super friendly along with generous. I will definitely be back since I have been looking for a smaller BBQ place that's not a chain. Besides it isn't far at all from my work or home, so it was a win win! read more

Amazing food and customer service! When our order arrived we were missing the two BBQ sauces. We called the restaurant and they delivered it themselves! read more

I've been enjoying Colleen's food for years. The ribs, pulled pork, butter milk pie are always A #1. And their sweet tea tastes like my Mamas ! The portion sizes are always enough for multiple meals, which I appreciate now more than ever. The quick witted conversation with Colleen is priceless. Keep doing what you're doing. read more

Post Oak and AJs impressed me with their brisket but the prices are absolutely outrageous. AJs has terrible service as well. Ragin Hog is the honest Barbecue joint that deserves all the attention. Amazing service, family oriented and the food is amazing for the price. Awesome sauces and properly cooked brisket prove that we don't need hipsters in the barbecue world. These folks are doing it right. read more

I about died and went to heaven. That was the best food I've had in ages. I would recommend anyone to eat here. If you're reading this go eat here. The lady who took my order was so polite and helpful it made my day. Thank you for the great experience read more

Came in from Florida and wanted BBQ. This place is small but delicious! Great size portions and price is good, especially if you get their combo which comes with 2 sides a drink and a dessert- we recommend the buttermilk pie- yummy! The server was very personable, great service read more

Best bbq I've ever had.... Seriously. Great staff and amazing food. Everyone in denver needs to come here.

This place is awesome! I got the burnt ends and potato salad. The brunt ends were delicious and the potato salad was some of the best I've ever had. I ordered it delivery through Grubhub. My only 2 issues: I wish they would give the option to add the burnt ends and brisket to the combos like they do on other food delivery services. And I wish you could swap out barbecue sauces instead of having to pay extra to get a different verity like Carolina bbq sauce. But the food is wonderful. I will definitely be ordered for Ragin' Hog again very soon!!! I need to try the Buttermilk Pie next time! read more

This place was some of the best BBQ I've had in Denver. Being from the South as well, and pretty hardened by the Colorado idea of "southern cuisine" I was skeptical to say the least. In between the true southern charm of the women behind the counter and the delicious array of house-made sauces, I gotta say this place won me over. I can't wait for more ribs! read more

Ragin' Hog BBQ - look at all this tasty bbq - Barbeque Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I used to eat here twice a month. Less frequent now because I stopped going to the gym across the parking lot. Running on the treadmill the damn place was staring me down like "15 more minutes and you can pop over here and indulge". Here's what I figured. about 15 miles on the bike allows you the mac and cheese. If you just did weights, do the brisket or chicken. Gotta fuel the rebuilding. The best BBQ in Denver. The storefront is a little seedy but the food and staff are great. Sometimes they run out of things later in the evening. If you are worried about it, pick it up earlier and heat it up when you are ready. Great for party carry out if you are headed somewhere and we're planning on stopping at Safeway for a party tray and want to step things up. Reasonably priced. Expect about $10pp. Nice tables to eat in or carry out. read more

Tasty BBQ joint tucked inside a shopping complex. Don't expect any decorative frills, just good comfort food, huge portions, and warm service. I was impressed they had five different kinds of sauces, three of which pay culinary homage to specific BBQ regions (Carolina, Georgia, and Memphis). You generally don't see more than three sauces at other BBQ establishments. The elbow macaroni and gooey cheese was better than most, and the baked beans were even a notch above that. The beans held a sweet aftertaste that suitably balanced the mild acidity of the pulled pork. Worth pulling over if you're in Denver! read more

Ragin' Hog BBQ - Two meat platter - Barbeque Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I have been going here for five years and brought home my fiancé a slice of buttermilk pie. Being a southerner he said the best compliment possible, that pie takes me back home. It is still the absolute best barbecue in Colorado and probably one of the best in the country please don't stop cooking read more

We used Ragin' Hog for a wedding rehearsal dinner of 30 people. Pricing is online for catering which I appreciated and the most affordable I found in the Denver area. Many people complemented the food and I personally enjoyed all of it. Two of my favorites were the collared greens and pulled pork with their spicy bbq sauce. The staff was very courteous and friendly as well. read more

There is seating here but I have never seen anyone eat here. So basically a take out joint. Good decent bbq. Great slaw with a tangy kick. Delicious potatoe salad. I also had corn bread and some pie I would return for itself. Menu on chalkboard. Chicken was sold out so I had pulled pork and brisket. Choices of bbq sauce to take from hot to sweet memphis. Pickles, jalapeños, and raw onion too. Big lot to park in. Sandwich buns available. read more

See all

Had Brisket and Pork. Both were very dry, especially the brisket, was completely dry. Buttermilk pie was excellent. But very disappointed in brisket.. My first and last time I would eat here. After reading other reviews I thought it would be good, but was so very dry. read more

Absolutely love this place. Great BBQ. Love supporting local restaurants. Here on a business trip and found this amazing little restaurant. Will definitely make this a regular stop during our future business trips. Food came out fast, service was great, casual atmosphere. Everything was fresh and delicious. Had the Ribs and Brisket with a side of Mac and Cheese and the Brunswick Stew. Will be recommending to my coworkers. read more

Really Good BBQ. Their turnip greens may have been the best I've ever had. The beef brisket was the last of the night...they said we have one serving left i said ill take it. I kinda expected it to be dry. Nope perfectly cook pulled pork. Good portions. If you look at all my reviews you can see I'm a barbecue junkie and this was really good barbecue read more

Ragin' Hoq BBQ is without a doubt a dive. We almost went to the eatery right across the street just because it looked so much nicer from the outside; however, that would have been a huge mistake. Upon walking in we were greeted by the most heavenly smokey aroma one could imagine. The smell brings a smile to your face, life to your taste buds, and the satisfaction of knowing you are about to experience some true smoked BBQ. Upon ordering, I went with a two meat plate choosing their chopped pork and their special of the day, burnt ends. The combo also came with the choice of two sides, a dessert and a drink all for $16.00. It was an incredible deal. For my sides I went with mac-n-cheese and corn bread. For my dessert I chose their buttermilk pie. The food in just about every way met or exceeded the high expectations that came along with the smell we had experienced walking in. The chopped pork was cooked to perfection, juicily and down right tasty. They offer 5 different home made BBQ sauces and their Carolina sauce complemented the chopped pork like a horse complements a cowboy. It was a pairing made in heaven. The burnt ends where very, very good; however, I did feel they were over shadowed by the chopped pork. Furthermore, I was able to give their baked beans a try in additional to the two sides I had chosen and they were sweat and cooked to perfection. As was the mac-n-cheese. The cornbread was a little dry for my liking, but that didn't matter ... the rest of the food was so good I barely even noticed the cornbread was even there. For me the baked bean and mac-n-cheese as the two sides I will choose if I ever get the honor of eating at Ragin' Hog BBQ again. I ended my meal with their buttermilk pie. I have never heard of buttermilk pie so I wanted to give it a try. Man, what a way to end a meal. It was absolutely delicious! The BBQ at Ragin' Hog was some of the best I have had. The service and southern hospitality was amazing. The price point and value took them to a whole other level. It is probably goes without saying, but they are a five star eaatery hands down! read more

Ragin' Hog BBQ - Chopped pork and burnt ends with a side of corn bread and mac-n-cheese, so good! - Barbeque Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I'm no expert in BBQ but I genuinely believe that this place was actually pretty awesome from the start. The service was quick and the people were really nice and didn't seem to mind that I made it obvious I was a first-timer. I stocked up on all their sauces to give them all a shot and some of them were quite exciting. Again, not an expert so I really don't know the difference between city styles. Now the reason I love this place so much. The sandwich was pretty good and it went really well with the sauces I liked. The potato salad was AWESOME. Mac n cheese was good. But what is buttermilk pie and why is it so good? That was a very pleasant surprise. My colleague loved the coleslaw, said it was the best she ever had and she also enjoyed the buttermilk pie immensely. I think the combo was definitely worth it and something I'd definitely recommend. read more

I've eaten here before and it was good so I went to go back and it looked like they were closed at 11 and I didn't see any hours or people inside so went elsewhere read more

If you want to experience true BBQ like we do it in Arkansas, then you have to try Ragin' Hog BBQ! Excellent meat, perfect sauce selection, and my new favorite BBQ spot in Denver. My family loved the smoked pork, cornbread, mac n cheese, and the slaw was exactly the way my granny makes it back home. In fact, that's the best slaw I've had at any restaurant in 40+ years! WPS...I'll be back!! read more

Ragin' Hog BBQ - The Razorback theme just makes this Arkansas native like it more! - Barbeque Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Stopped in after a day of looking for housing. All my life has been spent under the influence of Texas BBQ, and the last 16 years I've lived in Austin, which now boasts some of the best BBQ in the world. Ragin' Hog was right up there. They didn't have brisket (they mentioned having it on Saturdays, so I'll be back to try some) but the pork ribs and pulled pork are some of the very best I've ever had. Anywhere. I'm not a sauce user, so I can't tell you how their sauces compare, but the three I tried were very good. I got cole slaw for a side, and it reminds me of my grandmother's. Could use a tiny bit of black pepper, but that's just me. You can tell they slow smoke their meat. They do it the hard way, and it shows. The sausage was good. I'm used to the coarse grind that central Texas sausages have, and the links here are a fine grind, but perfectly spiced. They pack a great punch. All in all, I'll be back very often. It's really wonderful to have found good BBQ. Not good BBQ. Great BBQ. Really, you should try them today. read more

This place is bad ass. Unassuming, and the entrance faces away from Lowell blvd. It's in the building in the Safeway shopping center that is closest to Lowell and runs parallel to it. The lady that runs this place is really cool and makes some amazing BBQ. She told me that she gets up at 4am every day to start smoking meat. I'm really glad that people decide to do this kind of thing so that I can benefit from it. Her food is delicious - across the board. I had the pulled pork, links, slaw, potato salad and all 5 types of her homemade bbq sauce: Memphis, Carolina, Georgia, Sweet and Hot. I felt like I was traveling around the country to different BBQ havens just by changing my sauce every few bites. She encouraged me to try them all with my to-go order and stuffed large containers of each in my bag. Customer service is 5 stars too. I didn't have cash on me at the moment and she told me I could just pay her later. It was my first time in. She doesn't know me. That's pretty darn cool. I jogged over to safeway and pulled out cash, but I really appreciated the gesture. They don't take credit cards, which I totally respect for this type of mom and pop business. If you like BBQ the way that it's supposed to be made, you gotta stop in. She said she's expanding hours and the menu soon as well which is great news. Just don't buy her out of something before I get there, as she says she closes when she's out of food on most days. Thanks to Ragin' Hog for coming to the Highlands. I see a long relationship in our future. read more
