It May be “Touristy”, but a Chuckwagon Dinner in Colorado Should Not be Missed!

Wild_West_ShowEver since the early 1800’s, cattle drives in Colorado were followed by a hearty meal and an evening of lively music and tall tales at the chuckwagon.  For visitors to Breckenridge and other parts of Summit County, that tradition continues.  After all, what is a trip to Colorado without an authentic “Old West” experience? 

The chuckwagon dinner is a time-honored Colorado tradition, and there are a few very good ones right here in the Breckenridge area.

Time Below Zero in nearby Frisco offers a Chuckwagon Dinner and Wild West Show.  Starting out with an old-fashioned wagon ride, you and your family will take in spectacular views of the Rocky Mountains.  Upon arrival, there is time to enjoy a Wild West game corral before dinner, complete with cowboy golf, roping, horseshoes and more, while enjoying delicious biscuits and honey.  Once the dinner bell rings, guests sit down to a barbecue cookout and a family-friendly western show featuring the Jackman Brothers.  Dinner includes smoked BBQ beef brisket, grilled chicken, beans, corn on the cob, cornbread and apple pie with whipped cream.

The Happy Trails Chuckwagon Dinner and Show is located just minutes from Breckenridge, where a “rib-stickin” Western meal is served with genuine Western hospitality.  A truly unique experience is guaranteed for all, with an unforgettable evening of family entertainment.  In this historic Victorian town, guests enjoy the sounds of Duke Davis and the Buckshot Band, one of the best known Western singing groups in the Rocky Mountains.  The show includes cowboy music, good humor and stories from the Old West.

A night of good old fashioned barbecue cooking and Western entertainment is a “must” for any visitor to Colorado.  After a sun-drenched day enjoying the outdoor activities in Summit County, a chuckwagon dinner and Western show is an ideal way to wind down and just be a tourist!  Both of these attractions are just a short ride from our cozy cabin near Breckenridge – an excellent place to stay for your next family Colorado vacation or mountain getaway!

Thanks for the use of your mountain home. It was very comfortable and well furnished. Enjoyed the view and the strolls around the neighborhood. We will remember this weekend here as our daughter told us we were going to be grandparents!
