Don’t walk, but run to the best BBQ in Colorado Springs: The Chuckwagon hiding on the east side at 6453 Omaha Blvd. Seriously, run before they sell out. You don’t want to miss your chance at the brisket and ribs, or specialties such as the arm-sized beef dino bone and Texas Twinkie, a bacon-wrapped jalapeno stuffed with chopped brisket and cream cheese. Open from noon until it’s gone (before 4 p.m.) Thursday-Sunday . — Seth Boster, The Gazette
