Slow Groovin BBQ from Marble, CO delivering some of the best BBQ and food in the area is at the rodeo with their mobile kitchen and food truck. Slow Groovin offers up traditional BBQ with some twists thrown in, creating and paving the way to some of the best Colorado Q around!
In addition to the BBQ this year, the SG team will be teaming up with its sister restaurant Propaganda Pie who will be providing their soon to be famous Detroit style pizza by the slice.
Most of the menu items are made from scratch and sourced locally to support our farmers and ranchers. We hope to see you all soon!
