Hard to tell from the picture, but it kind of looks like volcanic obsidian.

Not a meteorite. Glass slag more likely than obsidian, based on the images provided.

If you want to learn more about meteorites and how to identify most common varieties, there are several websites dedicated to that.

Time for more coffee.
