If you're a foodie, chances are you love Jackson. Sure, it may be pricier and more crowded than most of our small towns, but it's hard to deny the quality of the restaurants that the tourism industry brings. Chili is one of Wyoming's signature dishes, and Cowboy Coffee Co. makes some of the best chili in Wyoming. It's bison chili, of course, and you'll want to lick the bowl clean.
Cowboy Coffee Co. is located in Jackson's Gaslight Alley, and it's a gem of a café that any foodie or coffee aficionado should plan to visit.
When you step inside, you'll find cozy, rustic digs that make you feel welcome and comfortable as you choose your seat and peek at the menu.
Like any good coffee shop, Cowboy Coffee Co. features an array of breakfast sandwiches and wraps that pair perfectly with your cup of joe and help kick off the day.
Lots of people, particularly foodies, head here for lunch, too. They're quick to make you a sandwich piled high with your favorite fresh ingredients, or whip up a salad that's refreshing and light.
Their most famous dish, though, is a Wyoming classic - bison chili.
This made-from-scratch recipe packs a ton of flavor, and you'll fall in love at first bite (first slurp?). It's topped with shredded cheese and served with corn chips, of course, and a slice of bread for dipping.
Pair it with a sandwich for a tasty Cowboy State meal that's sure to leave you smiling and satisfied, even in the middle of a freezing cold Wyoming day.
Take a look at the full menu on their website, and plan your visit. Jackson might have a strange reputation with Wyomingites, but it's hard to deny that's it's truly a foodie heaven. What's your favorite restaurant in our most touristy town?
