Cider House BBQ & Pub

There are several reasons why I love the Cider House BBQ & Pub in Waterbury, VT.

1.  It is Vermont and I love me some Vermont.

2. They support local farmers and producers.  Local meats, produce, cider, cheeses and other products are incorporated into their menu wherever possible.

3. The atmosphere is very relaxing.  It is not a huge place.  Friendly service.  Very Comfy.  We sat at a small table right by the fireplace.  Love it!

3. It is the home of the best burger I have ever tasted.  True Story.

The burger is called the Cider House Local Beef Burger.  And for just $10 you can get a big burger made with Vermont Highland Cattle beef mixed with their home made BBQ sauce,  choice of cheddar, swiss, bleu, or pepperjack cheese, topped with mixed greens, red onions, and chipotle mayo on a toasted bun.  My favorite thing about this burger is it tastes really fresh.  I literally want to make the 4.5 hour trip to Vermont right now just to get me one!  Unfortunately,  I visited this place before I created this blog and did not take any pictures.  But don't worry, next time I visit I will be sure to take tons!

If you are ever in the Waterbury, VT area....skiing...or perhaps just being a fat chick like me and visiting the Ben & Jerry's factory (check out that post here), make sure you stop by this place and show them some love.
