Who are we?
Cowboy's Dash Barbecue is a family business owned by Kirk & Bren Saewert.

Some History:
We developed a real passion for authentic smoked meats starting in 2014 and helped a friend in the Denver area with his similar business on occasion which we thoroughly enjoyed. In 2016 we took a cross-country trip and stopped at many famous BBQ restaurants along the way, including ones in Kansas City, St. Louis, Memphis, and Tuscaloosa. This really fueled the fire and we officially went into BBQ business for ourselves. We started off with a borrowed food trailer, got our first inspection, and received our first "License to operate a Retail Food Business" in June of 2016. At that time, we were using a homemade reverse-flow pit/smoker Kirk welded together from a 250# propane tank and a Shrader fireplace. That original pit/smoker is mounted on its own trailer and we pulled it separately from the food trailer. In May of 2017 we invested in a brand new 27ft food trailer, complete with a new larger pit/smoker built in on the open back porch of the trailer. After eight years of running the BBQ trailer, our children have all moved onto the next exciting chapters of their lives so we decided to give up that aspect of the business and instead focus on the seasonings and sauces we developed over the years.

What's in a name?
Have you heard the old adage about "The beginning and ending years on your tombstone are not the important part... it's what you do with the 'dash' in the middle"? We really felt like there are a lot of characteristics of a Cowboy which make for a great "dash".

Things like the "Code of the West" from the Cowboy Ethics book by James P. Owen (cowboyethics.org):
  1. Live each day with courage.
  2. Take pride in your work.
  3. Always finish what you start.
  4. Do what has to be done.
  5. Be tough, but fair.
  6. When you make a promise, keep it.
  7. Ride for the brand.
  8. Talk less and say more.
  9. Remember that some things aren't for sale.
  10. Know where to draw the line.

And, here are some other Cowboy Quotes we like:
  • When you lose, don't lose the lesson.
  • Talk slowly, think quickly.
  • Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you'll enjoy it a second time.
  • If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin'.
  • Generally, you ain't learnin' nothing when your mouth's a-jawin'.
  • When you give a personal lesson in meanness to a critter or to a person, don't be surprised if they learn their lesson.
  • Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin' it back.
  • You can't tell how good a man or a watermelon is 'til they get thumped.(Character shows up best when tested.)
  • Never miss a good chance to shut up.
  • "Courage is being scared to death - and saddling up anyway." John Wayne
