With the locals’ recommendation ringing through my ears, we headed to the edges of Morgantown. Opening the car doors, delicious smells wafting through the air beckoned us inside.
Following my nose, we sat down and browsed the menu. At Bernie’s Barbecue, there are yummy and delicious homemade items on the menu! It caught my attention with a handmade breaded pork tenderloin sandwich and Bernie’s original Beef Manhattan sandwich. Homemade sides like Rajean’s Cole Slaw, Mac ‘n Cheese, and Macaroni Salad were a couple of options.
Our boys were easy: Kid #1 wanted a hamburger and Kid #2 got the Chicken Fingers. They shared a side of French fries.
Hubs ordered Bernie’s BBQ Pork Sandwich with a side of homemade potato salad. I was faster this time and quickly claimed dibs on Bernie’s Pork Brisket Sandwich, what was recommended highly by a local, and ordered a side of sweet potato fries.

Served with a generous cup of apple butter, those sweet potato fries felt more like dessert! Even so, that doesn’t mean I didn’t later enjoy a bit of dessert at Bernie’s Barbecue. But you’ll have to stay tuned to learn about that one!
Our meal was excellent and, I have to say it, that barbecued brisket was definitely the one to get! It is so tender and juicy. You’ll love the flavor!
My sweet potato fries were a hit as well, not only with me, but to my fry-stealing husband, too. He would not stay out of them.
