Amazing bbq took me back to my time in Texas recommend turkey and brisket, baked beans were delicious and bread was nice and soft

The service was good, but the food was not memorable. The owner is supposedly from Texas, but this did not represent Texas well. The Texan I was with agreed. We both had the brisket sandwich with a side of beans. The beans were hot, but had little flavor. The brisket was tender, but also had no real flavor. The sauce (on the side) was fine, but absolutely necessary as there was no flavor to the brisket itself. read more

Really enjoyed our lunch. Baby back ribs were meatier than most and the spicy bbq sauce had a great kick. Husband's brisket sandwich was very lean, just the way he asked and there was plenty of meat on the nachos. Great lunch stop. read more

wow, some great bbq here! Unfortunately they were out of the brisket by the time we got here around 5:30pm (they are open from 11am onwards). The ribs were fantastic.... smoky, juicy and tender. We ordered the 2 meat plate and it came with 3 ribs and a heaping of pulled pork (second choice as the brisket was sold out). The pulled pork was solid, though wished it was moister. It was great with the bbq sauce, though I always like to taste a pulled pork by itself. Got a side of beans and those were darn good! I love pinto beans and they still had their shape/texture and good bite. Something addicting about good baked beans with ribs. This is a great place! Next time I'd come for lunch before items are sold out. read more

Fat Racks BBQ - 2 meat o - Barbeque Near Me - Cody, Wyoming

We had a pretty good meal at Fat Racks BBQ, although the people who came in right after us had limited pickings because when this restaurant runs out of food, they run out of food and close. When we arrived, there was no more brisket and apparently we had the last order of ribs. We had the family meal, which was big enough to feed the four of us with leftovers. We had the pulled pork and ribs. The pork was very good and the ribs were OK. While they were meaty, the meat did not fall off the bone as we are used to having it. They have two sauces - regular barbecue or spicy barbecue and both were good on the meat. We had coleslaw and potato salad as sides and both were very tasty. Our recommendation is that if you come earlier, you are likely to have a better choice of what you want to eat. read more

I came here for lunch. You order at the counter and they call out when your order is ready. They have outdoor picnic tables and a couple indoor seats (it's smaller inside). I ordered a 3 meat (brisket, pulled pork, & ribs) plate with a side of potato salad. The plates can come with 1, 2 or 3 meats which is a great way to try a variety of what they have. All the meats were tender and had great flavor- the pulled pork was my favorite. It is a filling meal and could definitely be shared as well. read more

The pulled pork sandwich with spicy bbq sauce was phenomenal! Very classic welcoming family bbq joint with really friendly staff and quick service! read more

Called just before closing. They were out of most things but were happy to do a pick up order anyways. The pork was good and juicy. The smoked turkey is sublime! We enjoyed it diced with cheese and crackers for many days after our order. Didn't have a chance to try anything else. read more

Omg was Fat Racks BBQ delicious we loved it. We feasted on the ribs and pulled pork. Both were full of flavor, sizable and amazing. The sides, potato salad, coleslaw and beans were top notch. This is a definite stop. Which they were in my backyard. AZ is a little too far of a drive. Don't miss out! read more

Best BBQ in town! Ribs are as good as any place in the country! Service is fast and friendly.

We definitely love our bbq and decided to give Fat Racks a try as we were passing through. We ordered a brisket sandwich, senior pulled pork sandwich and a side of beans. Being that one sandwich was a senior, both looked the same size. The brisket was tender but lacked any spice. You could taste the smoke flavoring but even adding the provided sauce it wasn't 5 stars in our book. The pulled pork was also tender and had very little flavoring as well. It too needed sauce. Speaking of sauce, the provided sauce really tasted like a common store bought one. The beans were traditional brown and bland. The restaurant was clean and the gal taking orders was cordial. It may be a good idea to spice up the sauce and allow customers to choose the hotness they desire. Or better yet, add the sauce to the meat upon placing on bread. read more

I stopped by with a few friends on my way to the airport going home from Yellowstone. I ordered the brisket with a side of potato salad. The meat was amazing! It was not dry at all and had so much flavor. The service was really good too. There's only a few tables inside, but there are tables outside as well. I definitely recommend coming here if you are ever in town. read more

Driving through Wyoming on our way to Yellowstone, we passed through Cody right after lunchtime. Looking for something tasty, we passed Fat Racks BBQ and quick made a U-Turn to give it a shot. We ordered a couple of Brisket Sandwiches and an order of the Pulled Pork Nachos. Slap me and call me slow roasted, was this food good! The brisket was possibly the most tender I've ever had, served on a tasty bun with sauce on the side. I was wishing for some sliced pickles for acidity, but a girl can't have everything, can she? The pulled pork nachos had a great balance of pork, beans, and jalapeños. The cheese was definitely snack shack queso and I'm not sad about that. All in all, a tasty road trip lunch! We were STUFFED! read more

Really good BBQ!! I got their baby back ribs and it was the best ones I've ever had! And loved that the bbq sauce is gluten free. Seriously sooooooo good! It had lots of meat on it and not a lot of fat which I prefer. Their potato salad was so good too! I will miss this place when we leave Cody. We called ahead for a pick up order and it was ready in like 15 mins! Amazing food and service! read more

Slim pickings - Came a bit after 6 and many of the items were already sold out. What we ended up getting was the brisket and pulled pork, along with potato salad. Brisket was alright, a bit dry for me but the pulled pork was delicious. The BBQ sauce is what makes it just right. Indoor and outdoor seating available. read more

I had the ribs and brisket. The food was great! The service was also great! I definitely hope to be back in Cody one day to eat here again.

Outstanding, the best BBQ we've ever had (and we've had a lot). Turkey, brisket and pulled pork were all excellent. Moist and flavorful but not at all fatty. We got 2 dinners here on a 5-night stay. read more

Food is great !! Turkey and the pulled pork are excellent choices Quick service !! Mike the owner is the best great selections you can sit outside down town Cody near all the shops. The restaurant is super clean and the smell of the food is amazing. read more

They were really nice there and the food came out fast and the meat was tasty. The reason for my lower star review is that it's extremely expensive. My nachos cost $18 and there was a lack of vegetables and meat on them with cheap chips,. Also, later in the day, I experienced some gastric distress. read more

I'm a Georgia girl born and raised, and this is some of the best barbecue west of the Texas!!

My brother and I stopped by for a quick snack, and ordered a brisket sandwich and pulled pork sandwich to split. Both were prepared quick and tasted really good outside while we were waiting for the outdoor show at the Irma. The brisket was very tender and came from the 'moist' part of the brisket. My one issue was that they didn't remove a large chunk of the fat...we know it's supposed to be fatty, but it's not a good texture to bite into a 'fat' sandwich. Some pickles on the side would have helped as well. The pulled pork sandwich was excellent...all meat, smoky and tender with a decent amount of pull. The BBQ sauce that we could add on the side was good. The cashier was very friendly and we learnt that the owner is originally from Texas. Next time, we will sit down and have a full meal with sides and will definitely reorder the brisket again. read more

Amazing brisket nachos! Best Nachos Ive ever had. Wished I lived closer, Id come here weekly, if not more.

The ribs are some of the best I've ever had! They were moist, tender and tasted great! read more

Get the ribs!!! They were fall-off-the-bone! The brisket and pulled pork were good but nothing special. The beans are brown beans - not baked, so be aware. Loved the potato salad! read more

Really enjoyed the ribs and brisket. The brisket was lean but juicy. The ribs were excellent. I usually like sauce with my ribs but there was no need, rub showcased the meat nicely. Staff was friendly and the owner/pit master checked in to make sure everything was good. If you want a cold beer to go with the bbq, a craft brewery is right next door. Cody, WY is a charming town and places like Fat Racks BBQ are representing the community well. read more

Superb ribs. Best we have ever had. Be sure to try them. You'll be surprised and happy read more

Fat Racks BBQ - Ribs - Barbeque Near Me - Cody, Wyoming

This was pretty good BBQ. Arrived on a Saturday and the smell was outstanding. There's minimal inside seating with plenty of seating outside. We chose outside. Ordered a 3-meat plate however they were out of potatoes and beans. The ribs were good, but not amazing, average. The brisket was good, tender and Smokey with a good stretch and the pulled pork was a little dry and not as flavorful as I expected. Overall it was good - just not outstanding. The service was good! Oh and we also ordered their German sausage. That was Smokey and flavorful. I'd do that again as it was my favorite. read more

Came here on the suggestion of the hotel staff. First let me say the food was good, nothing outstanding but good. I had the pulled pork nachos. The pulled pork was juicy and tender with a lot of it along with melted cheese, some beans, and jalapeños. There really wasn't enough beans but overall it had a good flavor. The biggest issue was it was just after 5 when we got there and they were out of almost everything. No brisket, no ribs (although they did bring some out just not done enough) the people behind us got the last of the pulled pork. So right at the start of dinner they are basically out of everything. One of our party got the turkey which he said was really good. The ribs 2 of our group got were not cooked long enough so the meat was tough with a lot of pull. Maybe if you came earlier you might have a different experience but for our group it was just ok. read more

Maybe I went at an off day/time because this was nowhere near what the reviews are saying. Brisket was tender but very dry and flavorless. Ribs were nothing special at all. They need to add more sides to the menu. Greens, Mac and cheese, baked beans and corn bread would be a very good addition. Also, some beers on tap and desserts. Not sure why this place is scoring so high for a BBQ joint. read more

After a full day of sight seeing, we decided to try out this new restaurant and we were very impressed. We got a total of the 3 meat combo, loaded nachos and pulled pork sandwich. After Reading the reviews of this place, I can definitely see why they are rated so highly. The food was amazing. The food was a bit on the costly side but it made up for how good it was. The only down side was that they were out of potatoes and I would have gotten potato salad. Otherwise, the food was very good and great bbq all around. read more

I just love it when food is good and the service is fantastic. Michael took our order at the register, he was very Texas friendly. They have indoor seating and outdoor picnic tables, weather was nice so we sat outside. Our order was delivered a few minutes later, the box looked great and tasted good. Michael, the owner, came out and talked to us for 15-20 minutes. His welcome attitude made this a great choice. read more

Moist, excellent brisket. I lived for 40 years in Texas and Louisiana. This is the best brisket I have found in Wyoming. Pork very good too. Small place with not much sitting room but the bbq is too good for me to care. Service is friendly and fast. Too bad it is closed in Winter months. It closed at end September. Owner says it will reopen in Spring. Can't wait. read more

Awesome food experience!!!!!!! Staff is friendly, the atmosphere is clean and unique. Love the Bbq read more

We order brisket , beans and potato salad to take out . The brisket and bbq sauce was amazing, the beans were ok ,the beans were all over the brisket , they forgot to put a lid on the bean container and the potato salad was missing . We were to far away to come back in say something. So check your order before you leave the place. read more

I was skeptical of all the five star reviews. Nope, it is a 5 star place both from the food quality and the value. I plan to only eat here when I am in Cody. read more

Offering Texas-style bbq in the rodeo capitol of the world, Fat Racks competes in a market with several other bbq spots. The location on the corner of the two main streets that run through Cody, Fat Racks grabs the attention of passerby with large signage and outdoor seating. Often bustling at meal times, parking in the immediate area may be difficult to find. Fortunately, there is ample parking in the larger area, and you may want to walk a bit after you eat anyway... We arrived just before 630pm on a Monday and were slightly dismayed to learn that they were sold out of most of their meats as well as their potatoes. The remaining meats, brisket and ribs, were the first choices for most of our group, so we went ahead and ordered. The brisket sandwich was very good. The brisket was tasty if just a bit on the dry side. This may have been because we arrived relatively close to the 7pm closing time. The bbq sauce was good, with a distinctive molasses flavor. The side of potato salad was excellent, with a mustard tang and a great proportion of pureed and cubed potatoes. The serving size was modest, but with meats ordered by weight, I was still very satisfied by the end of the meal. I would recommend visiting Fat Racks if you are in town and can get past the crowd read more

Visiting from Oklahoma and wanted to try this place based on the reviews. Hands down the best food we have had during our stay in Cody and we have had prime rib and steak here. We ordered the family pack with ribs, brisket, potato salad, and beans. Wished he served fried okra, lol. The BBQ is outstanding. A must visit if you are looking for good BBQ. read more

We stopped here for dinner while visiting. The food was great and workers were very pleasant.
