Gourmet food, wonderful wine, full bar and food that’s just for kids too at our Colorado All-Inclusive Ranch!
We love food and fine dining is our specialty! One of our highest considerations at the 4UR Ranch is the quality and creativity of the food prepared for our guests and our staff. We want it to be delicious and beautiful, as well as home grown or locally sourced whenever possible. And we want it prepared by someone like Chef Liz Wolfgang whose love of cooking and laid back style is the perfect ingredient for cuisine at our Colorado All-Inclusive ranch. A few years ago Chef Liz came to us to fill the position of Sous Chef and we quickly came to appreciate her skills and perfected talents.
Meet Chef Liz
Chef Liz’s love for Colorado, her culinary history with fine dining, and her previous experience at a luxury ranch resort, made her the perfect addition to the 4UR team. As Executive Chef, Liz puts her amazing culinary skills to work in magical ways to make sure your fine dining experience is exceptional in every way.
Variety is key in our fine dining experience at the 4UR Ranch. Our menu is dynamic and very much alive, especially during dinner service. While two dishes will remain on the menu every evening, the rest is rotated to provide a more in depth and satisfying fine dining experience. Further, the menu changes throughout the summer and fall to feature dishes that compliment the change in season.
We welcome you to enjoy this Colorado all-inclusive fine dining experience with us in the beautiful San Juan mountains.
A Word from Our Chef:
I am Elizabeth Wolfgang, a graduate of Johnson & Wales University. After joining the 4UR team in 2007 season, I continued to travel and my culinary journey took me all over the country. I have cooked in a wide range of environments from cooking at a children’s summer camp in Alaska to being the Chef de Cuisine in a James Beard Finalist Fine Dining Restaurant back in my home state of Florida.
I have also been lucky enough to have accomplished a lot of independent work over my culinary career: personal chef, meal planning for families, teaching culinary skills to children, catering anything from weddings to intimate dinner parties, and at one point I owned and operated a food truck.
My wife Jamie and I have two dogs who we love exploring the mountains with. In the off season Jamie and I try to go on at least one food adventure. These food adventures are where I get a lot of inspiration for new dishes to bring to the ranch.
My Mom and my Great Grandma were the sparks that ignited my love of cooking. It was during every holiday celebration they allowed me to help with the meal preparations. They were my first teachers in the basics of preparing a delicious and comforting meal. During the holidays I continue this tradition by preparing a multi-course meal for my family and passing along the tradition to my nieces and nephews.
At every restaurant and culinary experience I have worked, I would do my best to soak up as much as I could and apply it to the next. I enjoy taking what I have learned along my journey and applying it here at the 4UR to provide a unique and memorable experience.
– Liz.
