Become a Champion

G-Que BBQ was founded in 2015 by Jason Ganahl, after whom the “G” in G-Que BBQ is named. Being Colorado’s only BBQ brand with roots in winning championship BBQ competitions adds a layer of authenticity to what we offer. This heritage not only validates our commitment to excellence in BBQ but also sets us apart as a brand with a genuine passion for the craft and for our people. Throughout G-Que’s nine years, our brand has developed into one that paves the way for modern fast casual concepts. Our team aspires to constantly innovate and create unique ways of reaching customers, increasing sales, growing the brand, and developing leaders. At G-Que, we commit to technological innovation, culinary diversity, a competitive spirit and dedication to high-quality food, while providing their guests with the best twenty minutes of their day.

My first job when I moved to Colorado in 2019 was with G-QUE BBQ. Started as an ice cream scooper and kept expressing interest in learning new positions. I had opportunities to work my way through the restaurant learning and perfecting all of the positions FOH and BOH and finally Assistant General Manager. Grateful for Nick my GM who is now our newly appointed president for allowing me and others the opportunities to learn and grow with the company.

AJ | Carver

One of the best parts of working at G-Que is seeing the smiles on our guests' faces when they take that first bite of our barbecue. I love being part of a team that’s passionate about serving the best barbecue in Colorado and creating an unforgettable experience for everyone who walks through our doors. Knowing that our food brings people together and leaves a lasting impression makes every day rewarding.

Tyler | BOH

What I love most about working at G-Que is being out at events, where I get to share our barbecue with so many people. I get the opportunity to see a crowds gather around, excited to try the food we’ve worked so hard to perfect. G-Que is a great team and I love being a part of it.
