Buddy’s Smokehouse and Bar-B-Q Joint, Matlock

In 2022 a fantastic new restaurant opened on Dale Road in Matlock, Derbyshire.

The restaurant was opened by Sheffield born 2020 Masterchef semi-finalist, Luke Rhodes.

Be warned, if you’re a vegetarian this restaurant probably isn’t for you as the restaurant claims to sell meat (beef, chicken and pork) with no apologies.

Being a smoke house the menu consists of dishes that might be found more commonly as street food in America or on an American BBQ.  You will find sections on the menu such as “Pit Trays”, “Pit Cobs”, “Dirty Dogs” as well as burgers and fried chicken, with prices ranging from around £15 – £30/dish.

Expect large portions, a good selection of beer and wine, a well thought out decor and a great atmosphere.
