Firehole Bar-B-Que Co.

One of the highest-rated BBQ joints in West Yellowstone, specializing in Central Texas-style smoked beef brisket, open until sold out.

Located on Firehole Ave in West Yellowstone, this spot tops the local Tripadvisor rankings and has been featured on the Food Network show Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. The signature dish is Central Texas-style smoked beef brisket, alongside pulled pork, turkey, and ribs. Sides include mac and cheese, pinto beans, corn salad, and coleslaw. Meats are sold by the pound, and the official website states that the meat is never frozen and arrives fresh daily. No reservations are accepted; seating is first-come, first-served on outdoor picnic tables. Lines are common, and the brisket can sell out by early evening, so arriving early is highly recommended. It is within walking distance or a short drive from the park's West Entrance.

Opening hours
