BC Backcountry Wings at the Cowboy Bar

Best wings hands down! Our family goes to this awesome place every time we are in the mountains. So good!

Do you want wings? Are you looking for the best wings you will ever have in your life? Then you'll have to stop here. Tucked into a rustic warm, cabin like spot on Main Street, you will have the pleasure to enjoy the biggest, juciest, perfectly crispy skinned and sauced wings EVER. so many choices but the staff will walk you through them all. You will not be disappointed.

The best buffalo wings in the world. Even better than Duffs or Anchor Bar in Buffalo, NY. This place is awesome.

The chilli!! As keen chilli aficionados, we were keen to try all 4 levels of chilli to test our own benchmarks.
We tried 1. Beginner bourbon honey mustard, 2. Intermediate Cajun, 3. Expert BBQ, 4. Double diamond extreme buffalo garlic 🌶🌶🌶🌶
The double diamond is off the charts for us 😂
It was 500,000 Scoville Heat Units (hottest chili is Ghost pepper - rated 1,000,000 SHU). We had tears running down our eyes and runny noses.
Kind server saved us with glasses of milk. But seriously if you think you eat hot, you really have to try the double diamond 🔥🔥

This place has reopened as the Crazy Chicken. We were in the area for a week and went back twice. The wings were outstanding.

If your in town this is the spot to hit for wings. They've got the best recipes and the best head if your daring. The atmosphere feels very authentic and welcoming as well. My personal favorite wings are lemon pepper and Thai sweet chili.

Shut the back(country) door. The wings are AMAZING and we are wing connoisseurs. Fun place, super staff. Will be back!

This place is LEGIT. Best wings I’ve ever had. My only gripe is that we bought 25 wings and were only allowed to pick 2 flavors. Other than that, this is my new go-to when visiting Vail. Fries awesome. Wings spot on. Perfect amount of breading. Not too much. Not too little. Just right. Had the Buffalo expert which tasted phenomenal but it’s 2 hours later and I still feel my lips burning. The Buffalo Garlic at Intermediate were perfect. The perfect wing. Cannot be beat

This is a good food and nice atmosphere bar. The staff is pleasant and the wings were delicious, and good quality. We got ours plain with the sauces on the side. The sauces were awesome, and it's great you can pick the heat level!!! The garlic parmesan and the mango sriracha were our favorites. Will definitely be returning again. Best wings I've had in the area in a while.

We are locals and our first trip here was perfect. Wings are honestly the best I’ve ever had. Reasonable prices and the bartender included a free glass of wine for my wife. Our kids loved it too. We will be back often

Fantastic wings, good cold beer. First time visit upon advice from a local. I had boneless and my friends had traditional, and we were all impressed and consider these some of the best we've ever had. The traditional wings were very meaty. The boneless wings were large - 5 were plenty to fill me up. Plenty of flavor /hotness options. We'll be back!

Have been here twice, both times on a Sunday. Both times relaxed but fun atmosphere. Very much the "local place" which I love. The staff are always super friendly and great at making you feel a part of the town. Food is consistantly great, my husband loves the wings which are really big compared to other places. 👍 You can't go wrong by going here.

Best spot ever! Kyle, Sierra, and Pat are a dream team out front and Daniel makes the best wings on the planet! Great Colorado bar and even better atmosphere. A must if you’re in the area!

BC Wings are the best in the valley Sierra and Kyle are super friendly, food is great 👍

Yo, this place is a hidden gem. Had just finished a 8+ hour hike and needed food desperately. Laid back vibe of a local sports bar. Bartender was super helpful with recommending what to order/best bang for your buck. The wings are huge and were top 3 best I've had in Colorado.

Wow, this place has very good tasting food, the wings are an absolute must get! The fries are I believe the best fries I have ever had! Menu doesn't have a lot of options but they make up for it with the food they do offer. Highly recommend stopping in.

Best wings I’ve ever had. We love this place. Are you ever going to open again? - Ben and Lauren

Honestly some of the best wings I’ve ever had. The service is also greatly improved from the last time we were here. The blonde waitress (sorry we didn’t get her name), was delightful.

This place has the best wings ever!!!!
I am a native local and my friends and family have always talked about how a quality wing place would just kill it here and BOOM! Wish granted! The wings were super meaty and very high quality. I’m a particularly picky wing eater because I can’t do anything real spicy like at all so having the option to do “beginner” spicy is so awesome and the sauces are out of this world! I didn’t even really NEED ranch to dip in they were so good lol.
We walked in and it was fairly quiet with 3 separate groups at the bar so my mom and I sat in a corner table and the bartender Nino didn’t waste a second in coming to bring us menus and welcome us and tell us about the menu/wing options. For being a bartender and server I was very happy and impressed with his multitasking skills as my experience with people bartending and serving at the same time I usually feel like an inconvenience to them; but not here. Nino greeted us with a smile and checked on us several times we never had to flag him down. We never felt less important that the people sitting in front of him at the bar. Very happy with our experience here and I plan to tell anyone that will listen to me about this place. Cannot wait to return :-)

Admittedly the service is not awesome. They are almost always understaffed. But I don't care. I come for the amazing wings and they simply can't be beat. Especially when they have a special running (usually during football games). If they had more staff the price would probably just go up. I'll wait with a smile if I have to. The wings are AAA; I don't know anyone who possesses an ounce of patience who doesn't think these are the best wings in the Vail Valley.
