Wyoming is a state dripping with authentic cowboy culture. Unlike a lot of our neighbors, we never stepped away from our roots. We still really value the culture that was established by those who came here before us. We’re still independent, we still have a strong respect for nature, and we love a great down home meal.
If you’re on the hunt for a traditional Wyoming meal, check out the seven restaurants below.
Named after the legend of Steamboat, a horse which was infamous for being almost impossible to ride, Steamboat's Steak and Smokehouse is an authentic western eatery located on Del Range Avenue.
The most interesting item on the menu is the Crab Stuffed Mushrooms, stuffed with spinach, artichoke, crab, and cheese.
Located on Happy Jack Road, this bar and grill is the hangout of choice for anyone looking for a great steak and a cool beer. Steaks are made to order; if you go, ask your waitress and she’ll hook you up!
