Hi I'm Jocelyn and I'm here at Devil's Tower in Wyoming and these are the eats of Wyoming
0:06
First, my favorite thing to eat in Wyoming is chili. I absolutely love the chili here
0:12
They make it usually with either beef or bison. I really prefer the bison
0:16
And while we're talking about bison, that's another big meat that you'll eat here
0:20
They have it in hamburger, meatballs, just as a steak. Personally, I really like it in meatballs
0:26
I like ground bison more than I do bison steaks. just personal preference but you'll also find a lot of beef steaks and if you've driven through
0:33
Wyoming you'll understand why because there are tons and tons of grass-fed cattle all over the
0:41
place Roman wild anyway so that's another big one here you'll also find elk um kind of less so than
0:49
you'll find beef bison but elk is definitely on some menus too while we're talking about meat
0:54
Let's talk about jerky. Jerky here is absolutely incredible. I don't know what they do, but it's
1:01
certainly not that jerky that my kid gets from the gas station and stinks up my car with. It's like
1:06
really good, flavorful jerky, and you'll find all sorts of like boutique-y jerkies, if you will
1:14
They're sort of, they're like handcrafted in small batches, and they've got a ton of flavor
1:19
and they're really great. Another note on the meats while we're talking about cattle
1:24
Yes they Rocky Mountain oysters here They not bad I had them They not quite my jam but you can get them They usually served as an appetizer but if you never had them it probably worth trying
1:36
As far as fish goes, you'll usually find halibut, salmon, and trout, sort of in that order
1:42
There's a lot more of the first two than there are of the trout. Most of the trout caught here is catch and release, but you will occasionally find it on menus
1:51
So huckleberries and chokecherries are a big thing throughout this area, and personally I really like them as a syrup poured over chocolate ice cream
2:00
That would be my favorite. But you get them in ice cream and you'll get them as jam
2:05
and sometimes you'll get them on top of cakes. I mean it's just all sorts of stuff
2:10
So definitely try those out and maybe purchase yourself a little bottle to take home
2:15
Lamb is another something that you'll see on a lot of menus and you'll also see wandering around on the side of the highway
2:22
So you'll definitely get some good fresh lamb when you're in Wyoming too
2:26
One of my favorite things to eat when I'm in Wyoming is fry bread. I grew up on Native American fry bread in Southern Arizona
2:33
And the fry bread I've had here has been just as good as my childhood memories
2:38
So that means it's really excellent. Anyway, you should definitely try that out while you're visiting Devil's Tower
2:46
which is a wonderful, amazing place, but it's also very sacred to all of the Native people in this area
2:52
So those are my eats of Wyoming. I hope you all get out here. Enjoy this place, this beautiful land, and some really great food
