I found Lee's by accident - it's off the beaten trail! It's one of those authentic places that must've been the place to go, in it's day! You can tell from the sign & it's accross the street from my Liquor store, too.

We read the reviews before going. We had to ask ourselves if we had the right place when we drove up. It is in a rundown, clapped out motel. Trying not to judge a book by its cover, we went in. The inside is just as run down. The girl behind the counter was pleasant enough but the the girl in the kitchen was more into her facebook page. We didn't smell any fresh BBQ cooking which leads us to believe that everything is reheated. The food came out and was edible. I am not sure where the other reviewers went but it couldnt possible be the same place. .Sorry about your experience with us. I can assure you everything here is fresh smoked everyday. All our sides are homemade as well. And the girl in the back was reviving a order through text from me the owner for another local business I apologize for that. Your the first person to not rave about the food and I do ask if you give us another shot to say for me Nick the owner I would love to change your mind about us and YES it's on me. As far as the building I'm over a hundred thousand dollars in and still improving everyday it just don't happen overnight but will see a big improvement over the next couple months. Sincerely my apologies Nick.
3. Trinidad Smokehouse
Small town feel with great BBQ, friendly service and equipped with a full bar and patio. Great for kids, back yard horse shoe pits, a stage for live music.

We are two senior couples traveling in Colorado to see fall foliage. When looking for a restaurant in Trinidad, it seemed all of our original choices were closed (Tuesday). We settled on the Trinidad Smokehouse because it was open. Lucky for us because the food was great. The service matched the food. Three of us decided on the cod. Though the cod was cooked in oil, there was not a hint of oil in the finished product. The sweet potato fries were also very good. All in all, very good food at a reasonable price.
