When Home Team BBQ first came to Aspen, I was a little skeptic of whether someone could do good BBQ in Colorado let alone Aspen. When I first walked in the door, I was excited to find out that they're based out of Charleston SC. So I expected that they could know what they are doing with BBQ.

So I did my first check I do at any BBQ place, check to see if they have brewed sweat tea. To my surprise, they did have brewed sweat tea, and it tasted just like it does in the south (but it has gone down hill sense they opened). When going to any BBQ place, I always get pulled pork and hopefully mac and cheese, and they had both. To my surprise there pulled pork platter also comes with one additional side (2 sides with meat platters), so I got there Brunswick stew (it also comes with pickles, onions, and Hawaiian roll).

While I was waiting on my food I started tasting the five different sauces they offer (Carolina Mustard, Red, Sweet Red, Hot Red and Pepper Vinegar), Sweet Red is/was my favorite.

Then my food was brought to my table, and right away I was so impressed with pulled porks red tent (smoke line). Once I bit into it, I knew right there this wasn't your average Colorado BBQ place, it was a BBQ skill that is only learned in either the South or Texas. The Mac and Cheese was homemade along with the Brunswick stew (which both I would recommend because out of the sides these are the best (I've had them all)).

So over all, I would recommend going to Home Team if you are looking for BBQ in CO at a low price (especially in Aspen.) If I had to critique it, I would have to say that the burnt ends are sub-par (would not recommend getting them) and I like cornbread instead of a Hawaiian roll.
