Staff were great, and the intimate atmosphere inside gave a fun local feel for the culture. Glad to also see some NA beers on the menu. In terms of food, I highly recommend the pulled pork, and would go back just for this. The brisket and turkey were surprisingly dry and a little tough. The Mac and cheese was okay, but a little bland. Maybe I expected more flavor from the cheese being in Vermont. The sausage links tasted great, but I got a few hard pieces inside which ruined it for me. read more

Great barbecue and great drinks. This place was conveniently located close to our Airbnb. I look forward to visiting again and trying some other items off the menu the next time that we are in the area. Looks like it's in an old general store. read more

Black Diamond Barbeque - Amazing bar with great staff serving AMAZING drinks!! You should be here!! - Barbeque Near Me - Morristown, Vermont

We ordered a mix of barbecue options from Black diamond for our belated Christmas gathering this year. We ordered enough food for 30 people. We had brisket, chicken, mac & cheese, veggie platter, salmon, tossed salad for the main course and also did a meat and cheese platter and shrimp cocktail as apps. We had more than enough food for 30 people. It was unbelievably flavorful and satisfying. We picked it up and needed to reheat the entrees slightly only because it was very cold where we were. The food endured the reheat - no drying out or loss of flavor. the food was phenomenal. I would highly recommend them. read more

Food and service is always great and the drink variety is awesome. Our go to menu items are the dry rub wings and the turkey.

We really wanted to like this place as it was so close to our air B&B. We arrived just before 6. It was very busy but were seated immediately. The staff was extremely friendly. It seems they do a great deal of takeout on a Saturday night and that slowed the food service down for visiting patrons. They did have a great tap list so it wasn't that big of a deal. We ordered the poutine as an appetizer which took at least 30 minutes to come out. As far as the poutine it was mediocre. I ordered the brisket which was dry in some spots and way too salty. Once again it was just mediocre for a barbecue joint. My wife ordered the chicken sandwich which was nothing special. All in all it was not a memorable meal. For an area that has so many food options I would pass this one by. read more

The best authentic bbq in Vermont. All the menu items including the cocktails are prepared to the highest standard. Excellent quality all around. The rack of ribs which are truly just as good as anything in Tennessee are a must try. The setting is cozy yet, tasteful. I highly recommend this to anybody in the Stowe/Morristown area. And as far as Morrisville goes it's the best restaurant in town by far. read more

This is s gawd awful place. The food is OK I guess. Northern Vermont isn't Austin. But the staff is absolutely terrible. Their bartender focuses on cleaning glasses rather than guests. He shared that he hates his job and the manager admitted that he's stinks. Just rude. Don't expect your food order to be put in. But me personally, I had my coat stolen there. Just a straight up steal of a 10 year old NorthFace coat. Not one apology or offer of help. Once agathe food is mid. If you want to have a terrible time waiting for mediocre food, this is your spot. read more

The waitress we had was fantastic she was great and the prime roast beef melted in your mouth it was awesome too. Good job Jason and crew Sheldon read more

Cool bbq spot with a nice outdoor picnic table seating amongst the tiger lilies, with the smokers wafting the aroma of the meats of your selection. Love the sides. Love the variety of smoked meats and sides. A fun spring, summer or fall spot. Great friendly service. Highly recommend it. read more

Black Diamond Barbeque - Barbeque Near Me - Morristown, Vermont

Great place to eat with excellent service and great food! The inside is small but I think they might have an upstairs. We have gone twice. Once on our own and again week later with friends. It was great! read more

Got a brisket sandwich and a tea, the tea was so full of ice I barely had and actual tea, the sandwich was super dry, like no sauce. And the meat was tough . Do not recommend for the price, wasn't worth my 30 something bucks. read more

This is a really cool looking place. The waitstaff was wonderful. We called for a table and even though it is small and busy, they held a table for six while we arrived. Prices are also very reasonable. that said, the food was just ok. maybe we came in on an off night. read more

I was in the "downtown" area looking for a place to eat, and somehow Black Diamond Barbeque showed up. Did not disappoint. I know ingredients, especially meat, are crazy expensive right now, so the higher-than-I-expected price was perhaps justified. Great food (ribs for me), great beer selection (you can't swing a dead cat in Vermont without hitting a local brewery), and the ribs were delicious. They don't inform you on the menu, but meats are available "deli" (I have no idea what this means). Meaning, you can buy by the pound to take out. That's how I had my full rack of ribs. Would have been a better choice to take the full rack dinner, which is almost the same price but comes with a bunch of sides. If you're in the area, definitely worth the trip! read more

Stopped by during a swing through the area, based on the recommendation of a local friend. The BBQ was tasty but the servings were surprisingly small - my smoked turkey "platter" was a sandwich with a side of cole slaw, and neither very large. The staff, for whatever reason, also seemed to be in a generally bad mood - maybe we just caught them on a bad night but it's noticeable when nobody is smiling. The service was fine - reasonably efficient but not particularly friendly. read more

First time at the restaurant, I've had it at stowe farmers market. I had the pork egg rolls they where delicious, I order the brisket, wish to known to ask for sauce on the side. It was good but not as good as prohibition pig in waterbury. The place was very comfortable and smells where incredible. The staff and service was a 5 star. Going back to try the ribs next time. It was weird you have two great breweries in town and none on menu. But I guess theres a reason. read more

A small, out-of-the-way, BBQ-focused, high-end place with good quality food. Negatives: Beer list useless. ENTIRELY pale ales on draft. Bottles & cans almost 100% bitter as well, with just the token Allagash White providing relief from the hops! We had margaritas. Caveats: Portions small for a BBQ place, but there's not necessarily anything wrong with that, just be prepared. Prices high, but there's not necessarily anything wrong with that when the quality is there, which it is. Positives: Brisket so tender I couldn't even transport a piece from one plate to another without it breaking. Cornbread mushy but there's not necessarily anything wrong with that - still a tasty complement to the brisket. Intense pickles. read more

I absolutely love snowboarding and my girlfriend got interested in skiing recently, the fire I decided it would be great for us to take a Valentine's Day weekend trip to VT. We ended up staying at a house not too far from Stowe mountain and all the locals recommended Black Diamond BBQ. We got so many recommendations we couldn't pass up the opportunity. After arriving at the house and having some drinks we decided to walk over to the restaurant and it was pretty busy. Looked like almost all the tables were full but we ended up getting one. The venue isn't the largest since it takes place in an older home but it has a great vibe to it. I ended up ordering the pulled pork sandwich with some extra vegetables on it and I absolutely loved it. I loved it so much it didn't even last five minutes. My girlfriend got the vegan sandwich and I really enjoyed the bite I took out of it as well. Since both things we ordered off the menu was really good, I don't see why everything else wouldn't be. We are also big craft beer drinkers and their IPA's and other brews were excellent. I have to say, if you're anywhere in the area even if this spot is out of the way, it's worth the trip. read more

Passing through we discovered Black Diamond and decided we had to try it. We love BBQ but being from NC we weren't sure how we would like New England bbq. The atmosphere is small town pub and very loud!! All tables were full and our food took awhile to arrive. I ordered the smoked turkey. It was several thick slices with their sauce poured over top. The turkey had a good crust and noticeable smoke flavor. The sauce was tangy and I liked it but I prefer turkey without sauce. My husbands pulled pork sandwich was good and the same sauce was even better on the pork. My daughter had the smoked wings with no sauce or rub. They are smoked and then deep fried so very crunchy. I think they would have been much better with the dry rub or sauce on them. This place is worth trying and we would definitely return on another trip to the area. read more

We discovered Black Diamond last year on our trip to Vermont. So despite the Covid-19 restrictions, we wanted to return. The food was great. My son's girlfriend, who went to school in Texas & claims to be a barbeque expert, loved the pulled pork and the mac and cheese. The brisket was also a hit, as we're the cocktails. My ribs were kind of sloppy -- overcooked to the point of being mushy and swimming in sauce. The curbside service was excellent. We pulled up, and while still digging for a phone to call, a server came to the car to get our name and brought the order right out. My big whine about the experience was the ordering process. Concerned that they might run out of ribs, I ordered them first thing in the morning, expecting to figure out what everyone else wanted that afternoon. Shortly after placing the rib order, I received a notification from my credit card company of a potentially fraudulent charge from an unidentified company in Rhode Island. I wasn't in Rhode Island, so I confirmed that it was an unauthorized charge, cancelled the card and jumped through the hoops necessary to get them to send me a replacement at a vacation rental address. That afternoon, when we placed the rest of the order, it happened again. This time, recognizing that it must be an order processing fee, I approved the charge. I've held off writing about this, despite being very angry about how disruptive this will be having to change pre-authorization with so many vendors that automatically charge my credit card for monthly subscriptions, because I thought it might be me. Until I received an order confirmation email from another restaurant that included not only the amount of the processing fee, but also the name under which it would be charged to my card. Y'see Black Diamond, it's not that hard. read more

BBQ isn't bad . Sides suck and it's way over priced. Also you can't get FF without gravy on them.

Tried this numerous times and its consistent at least. I will NEVER order take out or anything there, but while it lasts, the brisket sandwich on brioche at the Farmers market is good!! Can not take the douchey attitude of the guy cooking it, but I believe he is the owner who is laughing all the way to the bank from his over priced ....food and we support it. read more

I had a special event coming up and had previously tasted the BBQ from Black diamond BBQ at another catered event and thought that it might be a good fit for what I had in mind so my wife and I went to the restaurant to 'taste test' the food.  we both got enough variety of plates to taste most of what we were interested in and the food 'in-house' did not disappoint! so fast forward a couple weeks to this last weekend, the 'event'....I got in touch with Jason by email and he made it very easy to plan what items we needed and how much.  I opted to pick it up myself, but I know from past experience, they will deliver, set up, bring EVERYTHING needed and clear down as if they weren't even there and leave all left-overs in easy to take home containers. Now, on to the quality of food... I opted to get Ribs, Brisket and smoked turkey....(they also provided dinner rolls in case someone wanted to make sandwiches, they were like Kings Hawaiian rolls, only better, they also provided a vat of BBQ sauce made in-house and a vat of horseradish cream sauce to go along with the meats) The ribs were tender, still had a little 'chew' to them which I like, not quite fall-off-the-bone but very close.  Flavorful and still moist, perfect!  They had a bit of sauce in the pan, but not swimming in it, which is what I prefer. The brisket was very tender and full of flavor, had a nice smoke to it.  Everyone at the party commented on how they liked the brisket. Lastly but not least...the smoked Turkey...man, it was juicy, had nice smoke on it, and oh so tasty!  I've done a LOT of BBQ and smoked meats over the years, but I would have to say that this was my favorite and I'm really a brisket kind of guy.  You know when you cook turkey at home, it's hard to get it right, not dry it out...well the folks at Black Diamond BBQ have it figured out!   Brad at the restaurant met me on a Sunday morning for pick up and was happy to load up my vehicle and give me a few 'tips and pointers' ...all in all, it was a hit and I would certainly recommend this to ANYONE looking to either eat out at their restaurant or have a catered event, they make it happen. Thanks to Jason, Brad and all the staff, you made our special event a hit! read more

You open the door to a wall of noise, but it's cheerful and happy noise. Brisket was quite good, in a style new to us. Pickles and coleslaw were the sides, and asking for more of the house BBQ sauce caused no issues at all. The desserts look sinfully good, but we didn't partake. Darn! read more

Black Diamond Barbeque - Happy crowd at the bar... - Barbeque Near Me - Morristown, Vermont

Food here is excellent. The menu has many options for those that do not want barbeque. Great beer list and plenty of tasty cocktails. Very large portions great for sharing. The tables are pretty small for how large the platters are. Which can make it a messy experience with a larger party. The waiter didn't seem to notice that empty glasses kept piling up on the table either and didn't remove them to help clear space. When we went the bar was very slow. Our appetizers came out before the cocktails we ordered at the same time. Overall a good meal but the staff could be a little more attentive. read more

We really enjoyed Black Diamond BBQ. The atmosphere was casual and welcoming. Very hip with the times but all age appropriate. My fiancé and I split the three meat combo platter!! It was great, a taste of everything and plenty of it. The platter came with a side of homemade mac and cheese and pickled veggies. Everything was amazing. Full of flavor, not dried out and not to smoke flavored(which is what I like from BBQ) On top of good food they had a great list of local craft beers and an awesome whiskey selection. Truly a little gem to be found, I would highly recommend for anyone driving by, it is so worth the stop! read more

Black Diamond Barbeque - the menu and prices - Barbeque Near Me - Morristown, Vermont

I like the Black Diamond Barbecue it really good but way over priced and no sides it's extra. Not good Plus the drink are ok and again over priced read more

I went once on a day off from Backpacking the Long Trail and adored everything about it. Ribs were perfect cooked, coming easily off the bone (not falling off the bone), with maybe a little too much sauce to my taste, but scrumptious none the less. As a fan of Vermont craft beer, I loved the beer list with very local beers on tap, but a variety of brews from Hill Farmstead as well. The sides were flavorful and imaginative. I came back a year later, curious to see the food really was that good, or if a backpacker's ravenous appetite lead me to over-rate the food. The food and the beer list were equally impressive and the 3 others who came with me were enraptured as well. The beer list remains excellent and made me happy I could let someone else drive. To top it off a Moose wandered about nearby before running for cover. I learned a bear had shown up earlier in the month. Morrisville is a short drive up from Stowe and well worth a visit if you are anywhere nearby. Lost Nation brewery and Rock Art are both nearby. read more

Whenever we vacation we look for the good BBQ. I really would give this place 3.5 stars but it doesn't allow so I up'd it to 4. So... let me start by saying it's a little pricey but the food we got was very good. I had the maple habanero wings while my wife had a combo of dry rub/bbq wings. They were smoked first so they tasted great. They weren't the largest wings (there's a wing spot in North Jersey that are downright huge!) but they are good sized. My real issue would be with the service. Though it's apparent it was just the one we had. She did the job but I had to seek her out twice. The hostess came by once and refilled my wife's water on her own. My biggest pet peeve is that I should never have to ask for a refill. Servers should be watching and checking. I was looking around for my server again but I guess the bartender was watching because she just came over with a new drink for me. So, mostly, the service here is on point. Overall, good food, good service. I recommend. read more

Food is great, ironically best veggie burger I've ever had. Cornbread is phenomenal. Meat is obviously great. Nice sitting outside.

Have come to Stowe area for five years vacationing with the family. This place is new to us. Have to say- Unreal food. Wings (dry rub) were delicious. The ribs were so tasty and fell right off the bone. Great beer selection too. The service was excellent. Highly recommend! Will definitely be back. read more

Black Diamond Barbeque - Barbeque Near Me - Morristown, Vermont

After visiting the Alchemist we had a huge craving for BBQ. Enter BBQ restaurants in Waze and we came up with Black Diamond BBQ. 29 reviews only and so we took the chance. It is located in a ver remote area. The restaurant is super clean and the smell of Smokey BBQ was just over inviting. Service was awesome and the food. The food is to die for! I will drive 3 hours just for this. Thank you to the Black Diamond Staff for an amazing delicious experience read more

We extended our stay in Morrisville by a day to comeback here. The food is that good and the cocktails are even better. Brian the bartender has come up with some thoughtful and tasty drinks with a Vermont twist. They use Barton Hill gin in their gin cocktails. As a big gin lover this stuff is incredible. We started with smoked wings with rub and a side of buffalo sauce. They are done to perfection. Another was the smashed pork egg roles. They came with a chili sauce but I liked them better with just the peanut sauce inside. My hubby loved the sauce. I got the 3 meat platter. An over generous portion of meet, house made giardinera and pickles. The Mac and cheese was incredible. The hubby got the salmon special. He noted that it was done perfectly. When first there when it was slower the service was incredible and Brian talked to us about the place and his inspirations for the cocktail menu. As business picked up service was a little slower. Overall this place is incredible and worth the extra nights stay at Muddy Moose in order to go. read more

BEWARE OF THIS PLACE. Brishet sandwich was great, however the beans were hard as a rock... did anyone even fully cook these? The corn bread tasted mushy and undercooked... did anyone even fully cook this? And the vegetables were hard as a rock... you guessed it... did anyone even fully cook these? The meal was outrageously priced as well. In Texas you get a full meal and all the sides for like $16. It was almost $30. This is Vermont!! I'd get the brisket sandwich again but all the sides were embarrassing . Wasted $10 on all the junky sides. Lesson learned read more

This was our last option for food on our way back to the Airbnb from stowe and I'm so glad we stopped here! Great spot with great food and an inviting and warm staff read more

Fantastic place. Was good the first time, but has gotten better with every visit. Food is fantastic and the drinks are even better. Good vibe in the place and the servers are great. Keep doing what you're doing but please open your doors a couple more times during the week. read more

Me and my girlfriend go by this place quite often on our way home today we decided to stop in and try it out. I had the smoke barbecued chicken wings. My girlfriend had the pulled pork sandwich. We are both maze by the high quality of food. The barbecue wings were perfectly smoked and the barbecue flavor on the wings complimented them perfectly. The pulled pork sandwich was moist throughout on the brioche bread was very fresh. The restaurant was very clean the atmosphere was very friendly a lot of good local drafts beers on tap will definitely visit again and bring friends. read more

Delicious food and drinks. We did show up once on a Saturday night when they were closed without any notice, which was frustrating after a half hour drive there. But the 2 other times we went we all loved what we got. read more

This is a pretty solid BBQ spot. Located kinda in the middle of nowhere, but it is a good find. The brisket was really good as were the chicken wings. They made some excellent drinks!! It's a nice spot just outside of Stowe. Highly recommend. read more

First time coming and had high expectations based on prices. 50/50 in our group of 4. 2 thought it was good and 2 of us thought it wasn't. Portions small for price when you've been to other BBQ places nationally, but this is a tourist area. Having lived down south, BBQ should not need sauce but be offered sauce if requested. The meat flavor should stand in its own. But not the case here. Mac and cheese wasn't that good. They serve fries with cheeseburger and I asked for an order to come with BBQ, the response was we don't do sides of fries. WTH... not a complex request. Proper service would be "let me get you an order and there is an up charge." All 4 of us thought the turkey was very good. If you're drinking, plenty of selection. If you don't drink alcohol, you're paying $3 for a can of coke. Overall, we wouldn't go back. Wasn't the worst but also wasn't worth the cost. There are plenty of other restaurants nearby in town. read more

This may be some of the best hidden food in the area. Pretzel bites with dip Steak and cheese sandwich Chicken fingers Ribs All yummy, yummy. I unfortunately was not able to fully enjoy my meal at the time because my son was having issues with noise of the trucks on the street. However, I did enjoy it later at home. We'll be back for take out on the next visit or we'll bring noise canceling headphones. read more
