Former cooks revive crowd-favorite BBQ shop after pandemic closure (via thknwco)
Back in January, the last day of business for Owlbear Barbecue never came to pass.
Because they weren’t at the restaurant to smoke the last of the weekend’s meat, Owlbear closed after that Saturday’s service, with no plans to reopen. Graunke and his coworkers-turned-business-partners, Juan Pablo Llano and Esteban Gallardo, have taken the tragic last day of their friend’s life and turned it into a hopeful future in his honor. On Friday, May 20, they’re reopening a new barbecue shop, Pit Fiend, in the space where Owlbear four months ago closed so suddenly.The owners of Pit Fiend BBQ, from left: Esteban Gallardo, Michael Graunke and Juan Pablo Llano. Pit Fiend opens on Friday, May 20, at 2826 Larimer St. in Denver.
At the core of the new restaurant will be the two custom-built, Texas-style smokers that Owlbear owner Karl Fallenius passed on to his former employees. Without those smokers in place, Pit Fiend could have been waiting for two years or more to get up and running.
