Around the Mountain by LJ James - Blackthorne Resort 13th Annual Opening Day Game Dinner

Written By The Mountain Eagle on 11/21/25 | 11/21/25


DURHAM — Most of us have that one place, that place that is our home away from home. The place we go to where we can just relax, that place "where everyone knows our name" I have so many places I love to go to, but the one place I always feel like I just walked into my living room, is the Blackthorne Resort 348 Sunside Rd in East Durham.

On Saturday Night, November 15th, I went to the Blackthorne Resort Bar, for their 13th annual "Opening Day Game Dinner." The cost for the dinner was only $25. 

Now I have had venison before, and my reaction has always been, "OK Yeah not bad" but this night was a complete game changer for me, my reaction to the venison this time was a big "OH YEAH!". 

The Dinner had main dishes like, venison stew, venison chili, venison stroganoff, cornish game hens and a bunch of really impressive side dishes, but for me the "Venison Parmigiana" alone, was worth the price of admission ! I cannot do justice in words describing how impressively delicious it really was. (I went back for 2nds and 3rds)

Now the dinner alone would  have been an amazing Saturday Night out, but the Blackthorne Resort always goes above and beyond. They also had a 50/50 , Raffles and Live Music by "In The Dust". I have said it before, I am not a big County Music fan, but for some reason I myself don't even understand, I love the band "In The Dust" ! They some how make County Music "Rock".

With the cold weather here, there are few places as good as the Blackthorne Resort to enjoy yourself in the Winter time! 

So stop on down, there is a good chance I will see you there, if not , This is LJ James and I will see you "Around the Mountain"
