This was the absolute best brisket, ribs and candied bacon we’ve ever had! Highly recommend.

This was such a phenomenal experience! I went solo so i opted for the bbq beans, they were far more then i expected. The meat that was so well incorporated that i felt like it had been as if i was eating burnt ends, and yet in the same bite i could taste full flavor of the sweet slow cooked beans. They even had complimentary coke and water on ice. It was such a perfect evening to sit and eat while being front row for a live concert! This incredible pair of musicians (Trevor and Mary i believe) who truly put on such an intimate and inspiring performance. Just an fyi*Plato and Ohio will be black market's new location starting next Saturday. This was such a great time, I'm so grateful for the great food, great company, great music, and most of all to be able to share my thoughts and appreciation for it all. The whole process was easy, from online ordering, and being able to PAYLATER, the major delay was my getting here but I'm so glad I did and I recommend this experience for everyone. It felt like home, so peaceful chill and just enough excitement to keep me fully engaged lbvs. Thanks

I don’t write reviews, until now. Black Market BBQ catered our annual work party last week in St. Paul. Not only was the food absolutely amazing, but the service was top notch as well. They were very kind, well organized and acted as if they’d rather be nowhere else or doing anything other than serving us their incredible fare. I’ll be bringing my family out for more Black Market soon!

After stumbling upon their website I had to stop and try their 'que. I ordered beef ribs and was told they were out. Then I ordered a pound of brisket and a rack of pork ribs. Jill said that the beef ribs were gone very quick and to be sure to order ahead via the website. Robert said the rack of ribs we were getting was HUGE. It was the biggest rack of pork ribs I've seen recently. When I arrived home the wife said it smelled good and was looking forward to trying it. When I opened the packaging the smell was great. We all enjoyed the ribs and the brisket. Even my four year old liked it, and he's usually difficult. It's good enough that you don't really need sauce but try it with your favorite sauce too. If you decide to stop by and get some of the Black Market StP fare stop by early or order ahead on the website. Don't worry, you'll like it.

Amazing BBQ!! Went tonight to pickup our order, and she gave us extra brisket and beans. We will for sure be coming back to Black Market StP!!! ...

"If you’re looking for an authentic BBQ experience with a fantastic atmosphere, look no further than Black Market BBQ, owned by Jill and Robert. This isn’t just a place to eat; it’s a destination. With comfortable outdoor seating, lively music, and incredibly friendly vibes, it’s perfect for a casual hangout or a family outing. My wife, brother, sister-in-law, and I recently visited and were blown away by the quality of the food and the overall experience. We even brought our own chairs to settle in for the evening, although they do provide seating. Jill and Robert are wonderful hosts who make you feel like part of the community. The food is simply out of this world—you really have to try it to believe it! Highly recommend for anyone craving genuine, delicious BBQ and a great time."

Just experienced Black Market at a graduation party in Forest Lake! The food was incredible, the owner was engaging and pleasant to talk to. His helper was also very kind and approachable! Did I mention the food?..WOW!!!!

My husband and I are from Texas and are particular about our BBQ. This is not Texas bbq, but it is unbelievably fantastic. Great crust, perfect marbling, just fantastic. I always over order but I WAY outdid it this time because those beef ribs were so huge. The brisket was so moist. We won’t be going to any other bbq place in twin cities. Loyal to Black Market. Plus the people we SO friendly.
