8 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Vernon

Little Mark's Big Barbeque Barbecue • $$
346 Kelly Road, Vernon

“Went for happy hour. The food was pretty good and the atmosphere was fairly quaint. There is not a whole lot of room available for the happy hour, only the bar and 1 high top, and it seems there are a lot of regulars that take up the bar space. But overall the food and service were pretty good and would go again!“

“First off, super clean, organized truck. Friendly service taking the order, good vibe.
AMAZING brisket sandwich, possibly the best I've ever had. Toasted bun, dripping fat, light BBQ sauce, and solid smoke flavor.
The pulled pork also high quality and a house sauce that complimented the pork.
Can't wait to go to the restaurant proper!“

“Our family recently visited Hungry Pot Korean BBQ to celebrate my son’s birthday, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. For many of us, this was our first time dining at a Korean BBQ restaurant, and our server, Tian, went above and beyond to make it memorable. He warmly interacted with everyone at the table, guided us through the ordering process, and even prepared several dishes right at our table, allowing us to try a wide variety of options. The food was fresh, flavorful, and plentiful, leaving everyone fully satisfied. The environment was clean and inviting, the staff was attentive and friendly, and the overall dining experience exceeded our expectations. We left with great memories, and I would highly recommend Hungry Pot Korean BBQ to anyone seeking delicious food and excellent service in a welcoming atmosphere.

“Bear’s Smokehouse Express in South Windsor earned my loyalty right away. When I mentioned I don’t eat pork, the team went above and beyond—clean cutting board, fresh knife, no hesitation. That level of attentiveness is a game-changer. Now, let’s talk deliverables: the beef brisket was top-tier—tender, flavorful, fully aligned with expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend this location. I’ll be back on-site, no doubt, and it’s a prime option to keep on the radar.“
