Steamboat Smokehouse - Steamboat Springs, CO

I've only had sliced brisket and pulled pork from Steamboat Smokehouse, but I was surprised at how good it was. I went in expecting typical tourist town/tourist trap bbq, but it was far from that. The brisket was delicious, thick-sliced, and tender though unnaturally moist. Plenty of smoke on it which is how I like bbq. Pulled pork was good, too, but that's easy to get right.

What sort of sauces do they do with the pork? In my part of the world it's next to find anything but the tomato/molasses variety, which can be good, but will never be my favorite.

Sorry to say I don't recall what the sauces were like. My wife had a pulled pork sandwich, and I only had a bit of the meat. I was so surprised to run into brisket outside of central Texas that didn't need sauce that either the sauce has slipped my mind completely or I just didn't use it. I think they had two or three sauces available. Should have paid more attention. When I go there again(which will probably be quite awhile from now) I'm planning to try the ribs, and I'm sure I'll be using the sauces then.
