Food was fine. But $36 for this setup is a bit much. The meal was $20, and I suppose the beer and cream soda was the other $16. I was OK paying the posted price for the food - although I think a little more meat would've been better - but there's no way the drinks should've cost that much. Prices aren't posted for those, so it was a surprise. This is a tourist stop, and I'm assuming they're not counting on anybody coming back so they charge as much as they do. Goal achieved; I won't be back.
This is a very popular restaurant. It can get very crowded, but the service goes fast. The owner has won many awards for his bbq. You can see his awards around his restaurant. The bbq is very delicious. It is a casual restaurant with good food. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Great spot in Silverton--it's been featured on the Food Network so it's quite popular, be prepared to wait in line. Pulled pork was juicy and delicious and the fries were great!
This comes from a Texas boy. This was good BBQ. Damn good BBQ. After a 3 hour ride on the train from Durango to Silverton, the wife announced she had a surprise from me. She had apparently seen an episode of DDD where Guy visited this humble establishment. I wish I had been there when he was there. We only had about 20 minutes due to the train being late. We dashed in, ordered the brisket, pulled pork, and sausage platter. Sides? Coleslaw and mashed taters. As I said, really good BBQ. The coleslaw was a little dry. The mashers were a hit with the wife considering I got NONE. OK. just a little taste. All in all, DO THE TRAIN RIDE...then eat here. You will not be disappointed. Rock solid 4 stars.
I had the pull pork sandwich with onion rings . You order at counter and deliver to table great sever needed knife to cut in half side I picked was coleslaw and also got Dr Pepper. The place had aprons hanging of the competitions they enter and plaque that they won with ceramic pigs everywhere . The pull pork was very good and so was the onion rings with ranch dressing
Don't believe the bad reviews... We just had a great experience here during a busy...busy lunch time rush. Ribs were moist, bbq sauce was great...just right. I had the Pork Sundae...unusual, but great. I ended up dumping it on my plate and attacking it! Service was awesome!! Guy at counter was positive and calm, even though it was a packed house. It was standing room only, with the line out the door. Well done, especially during a difficult time.
After a full day of activity, we were starving! Stopped by this local eatery for dinner. The gentleman at the counter greeted us with a howdy. I ordered one full dinner for hubs & I to share. He said what I ordered was enough for 1. Let me tell you, it was just right for 2! Food came out quickly (very quickly.) My only complaint was that it was lukewarm. Not overly hot. But, it was enjoyable. BBQ was good. Enough of a bite, not too sweet. Overall, yummy food stop.
I see a constant theme in the reviews, "Good value". I can agree with that. It is a good value. Good BBQ? Umm....It's ok. I ordered the light meal which included beef brisket, side of mashed potatoes/gravy and piece of corn bread. Brisket already came covered in BBQ sauce. I got the light meal because I just are breakfast an hour earlier, but decided to try this place that's DDD (Guy Fietti) approved. Overall experience.....eh.
I'm from Texas but I understand that other places have brisket too. I have to add my personal preferences, but the brisket and the meal was great and a a great value, more especially for the area. I've worked on my brisket smoking skills for many years. I would be happy with any cook that came out like the brisket here. The meat was standalone good and I mean it needed no sauce to be good without. The hot sauce I later tried was perfect, as it hit with some heat, then quickly retreated for a smoother finish. There was no smoke ring and I like a little hickory flavor in my brisket. The rub was indiscernible to the point I am not sure they used a rub. I only use salt and pepper like I picked up from Aaron Franklin, so I don't use anything heavy. The rub need not be the primary flavor in brisket. I don't care for sweet cornbread, but this only had a little hint of sweet and that went away. It was awesome! I like cole slaw a little creamier, but this was on point! I'd eat it any day with any BBQ. The potato salad didn't blow my hair back, but it wasn't bad. The fella that delivered our order was neither friendly nor unfriendly, but professional. The food arrived shortly after we were seated. The only negative review I saw was a gimme. "I should have known not to order vegetarian food at a bbq joint..." Right! Next time exercise better judgment. I read the first line about ordering vegetarian bbq and I knew that was a poor decision. I don't go into my garden looking for a steak, but then I listen to that little voice that keeps me from making similar mistakes. I guess my only criticism is they have vegetarian food items on the menu. Then again, that is more a business decision issue than a food item issue. Finally, with this covid-19 scare, there is limited seating. I saw a party of 2 in front of us taking up a table for 8. There were smaller tables open and there were a few couples at large tables as well. Good manners aren't common, but you should try to practice them anyway. Your egocentric behavior is abhorrent.
Came in a Thursday lunch at 1130. 6 of us walked right up to the counter to order. Place is fun to look at for kids. Hundreds of pigs and pics of pigs. Food was just mediocre. If they served it hot I Might have considered 4 stars.
It's good to make friends on a road trip. Someone insisted that I should go to Silverton and eat at Thee Pits Again. I love BBQ. What can I say. So while I was road-tripping in Ouray, I headed to Silverton and looked for a pink structure in town. Yup, just like the dude told me. You can't miss the place. It was late in the afternoon. They sold out of the brisket. I settled for the ribs. I can't believe how much food they gave me for a little bite. And the food disappeared quickly. The ribs were falling off the bone. It's juicy and tender. Their BBQ sauce was a hit. It was so worth the trip.
Mary and I stopped in for lunch. They were very busy, but the line moved quickly. We had a brisket sandwich and pulled pork sandwich; coleslaw and beans as sides. Both the meats were perfectly cooked, tender and juicy, fresh bun, mild sauce. Delicious read more
I have walked by the cute pink building for years and always wanted to try the bbq here. I'm so glad I finally came in! The pork and bbq sauce were absolutely delicious and I loved the quirky decor inside. The light eater meal was plenty of food and I was glad I got to try the cornbread and potato salad, both good! read more

The food tasted good but our bill was $51 for a very small portion ( 3 meat platter), baked potato and two soft drinks. The 3 meat platter is pictured. Everything else was fine...literally quarter cup portions. read more

We stopped by on a "Diner's Drive-ins, and Dives" recommendation. We were starving after backpacking in Chicago Basin. Food was great and the barbecue sauce was fantastic! Don't skip the whipped honey butter on the cornbread. read more

Silverton is a tiny town between two ski towns. It's a place people go to explore the outdoors or to ride their OHV's. Or to ride one of the only remaining steam locomotives in the USA. The town is only alive maybe 4-6 months of the year. The original was on that Diners Drive In's and Dives Show. We wanted bbq and it's the only option in the small town. It is very small and very crowded. There's a host/food runner. He talks for everyone to hear him and tells about the food, the show, and how to order. He runs the food and busses the tables too. We got our food pretty quickly. The ribs were good. They fell off the bone which was very good. The brisket was ok but dry. It was no 'Franklin's BBQ'. The potato salad and cole slaw were fresh and homemade and amazing. The baked potato was egh and came with a tiny teaspoon of sour cream. The baked beans were nothing special either. The cornbread seemed like it had potential but was dry and not warm. We ordered a deep fried Twinkie. It's got a funnel cake batter and is served with a scoop of ice cream and whipped cream. It was amazing! I'd give this place a 3.5 to be more specific. read more

If you are a foodie and/or a Diners Drive-ins and Dives fan, then this is a must try! Even if you don't happen to find yourself in the small, adorable, Western-like town of Silverton, you should probably still make the trip up the mountain if you are in the vicinity. Before signing up for the Durango Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad trip, some locals informed us about this BBQ joint. I was like heck yes! We were lucky enough to have 20 minutes to run in and get food to go before we had to jump back on the shuttle back to Durango. Here are my thoughts: It was good!!! We ordered a 3 meat meal with 2 sides. We got the beef brisket, pulled pork and sausage with potato salad and coleslaw. And guess what? I know why Guy Fieri made a special trip here. It was darn good, and that's coming from 2 Texans. The only thing that lacked was the coleslaw in my opinion. But the delicious potato salad more than made up for it. I can easily say that was the best darn potato salad I have had in my life. Follow me on my way to Foodietown! http://britneygfoodie.yelp.com read more
If you take the train ride from Silverton to here, you'll quickly realize that there really isn't much to do 9,200 feet above sea level. That being said, you'll probably be hungry and this is the best place to eat lunch at. I had the pulled pork and slaw sandwich and it was very tasty. The vibes inside are warm, rustic, and cozy with a lot of neat colorful things to look at (mostly pig themed art and puns). Restroom is clean and easily accessible . Service is quick fast and reliable. The quality is definitely there and you'll leave with a warm well fed belly. read more

In the one horse town of Silverton, CO, you only have so many options when it comes to choosing the perfect dinner eatery. Despite it's small size, it packs a punch, with businesses like Three Pitt's Again bbq that have been featured on Food Network's Diners, Drive Ins and Dives. Our appetites were small but we couldn't resist the bright pink fascade of the building paired up with a pink delivery van shouting "featured on Food Network!" Unlike many other bbq joints, Three Pitt's Again offers smaller servings for those who are not in the mood to bust a gut. I opted for the light meal option which comes with one meat (I HIGHLY suggest the pulled pork - as originally recommended to me by the employee at the counter - some of the best I've ever had), along with one side (standard fixins available like bbq beans, coleslaw, mashed potatoes and gravy, etc.) and a slice of cornbread with butter (the only thing I was missing was a drizzle of honey!). My partner-in-crime opted for the chili which she said leaned on the heavier side but was equally tasty. Meals range from $10-$15. Overall, this is a great establishment for family's seeking a hearty, casual dinner served in a charming environment. read more
