Pitchfork Fondue Western Cookout offers a fun and unique outdoor dining experience with a relaxed atmosphere and stunning views of the Wind River Range. The restaurant features a family-run setup where guests sit at picnic tables under large tents, enjoying the fresh air and scenic surroundings. The setting is casual, and visitors are encouraged to bring their own drinks and stay as long as they like, playing corn hole or simply relaxing.
The menu is centered around hot oil cooking, where almost everything—except salads, melon, and dinner rolls—is cooked on pitchforks dipped in hot oil over a fire, giving it the feel of a giant fondue. Guests start with all-you-can-eat, fresh-made potato chips cooked in the vats, along with dinner rolls and kettle-cooked bison brats, which serve as appetizers. They can then make a simple salad with various dressings and select from an assortment of fresh melon chunks.
For the main course, diners choose between Sirloin Steak, Chicken, or Trout, all cooked in the hot oil vats. The meal includes a potato and fried onions if desired. Kids can opt for hot dogs cooked in the vats with or without a bun. A variety of sauces are available to add flavor to any dish. For dessert, guests can choose between a brownie, which is similar to a chocolate Texas Sheet Cake with powdered sugar, or a Lemon Bar, which is described as good and OK.
The staff is friendly, attentive, and engaging, making the experience feel like a backyard cookout with good food and great company. Prices are fixed, with the meal costing around $38+tax per adult, and the menu is simple but very satisfying. The place is perfect for families, groups of friends, or anyone looking for a fun, casual dinner with beautiful scenery. The outdoor setup, cornhole stations, and space for kids and pups add to the relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere. Overall, it is a highly recommended spot for a memorable western cookout experience.
