August’s Local Business Feature
The Lazy Butcher
30790 Stagecoach Blvd #101 I Evergreen, 80439
I don’t know about you, but when I think of mountain-town dining that combines real flavor, genuine heart, and a craft-driven ethos, The Lazy Butcher is right at the top of my list. Nestled at 30790 Stagecoach Blvd #101, it’s so much more than your average butcher shop—it’s a downtown destination for locals and visitors alike.
What They Offer
Scratch Kitchen & Burgers & BBQ: Indulge in smash’d burgers, smoked ribs, brisket, and house-made sides—all made using meat from their on-site butcher counter.
Cowboy Lounge: A rustic yet refined space where you can sip signature cocktails, local Evergreen beers, and fine whiskies while enjoying the same delectable menu.
Butcher Shop: Offering premium Colorado-raised beef, dry-aged cuts, housemade sausages, pork, poultry, exotic meats, and curated seafood. Each product is thoughtfully sourced, with an emphasis on ethical ranching and quality.
Why I Love It (and I’m Not Alone)
This place is special for so many reasons:
Local roots, local pride: Their beef comes from Lazy Acre Ranch in Otis, Colorado—run by locals with multi-generation ties to our state. That ranch-to-table story matters, and you taste it in every bite.
Quality that stands out: Their pasture-raised, grain-finished beef is dry-aged on site—yielding steaks tender, flavorful, and ethically raised. No hormones, no shortcuts.
Versatility under one roof: You can grab top-tier cuts to take home, enjoy a burger or BBQ lunch, or unwind in their Cowboy Lounge with a cocktail and live music feels. That’s what I call a one-stop culinary win.
Community vibes: As an Evergreen local, I love supporting spots that give back to our mountain hometown—both in flavor and in spirit. The Lazy Butcher feels like a tasty extension of who we are as a community.
Insider Tips from Yours Truly:
Planning a BBQ or gathering? Their catering service covers brisket, pulled pork, housemade sides, and more—perfect for any local event or celebration.
Want to stock some serious freezer fuel? Order a butcher box or bulk share direct from the ranch—delivered to your door or ready for pick-up.
Why It’s a Standout in Evergreen

If you’re craving real food made well—or you just want a great burger and cold local brew—this is your stop. Whether grabbing quality cuts to cook at home or lingering over dinner in the lounge, The Lazy Butcher is one of the proudest and most flavorful parts of our Evergreen food scene.
