    Ribs, brisket and sausage plate! Bbq sauce was really tasty!
    Chris C.

    Good barbecue in a small, quiet setting. The sausage was some of the best I've ever had! It's dusted w/ Cajun seasoning that gave it that extra little punch that sausage needs. Brisket was good and the ribs were just ok. Give this place a try if you crave bbq, you won't be disappointed!

    Hot links with brisket and onion rings...!!

    This place has consistently served me great food, it is really a gem here in town, service is good and overall just great! Come early though, limited seating...

    What's not to like about a BBQ joint situated in an old gas station building in the shadow of the interstate where they put a plate of hot cornbread in front f you before going and getting you a menu? Answer: Nothing. Especially when every minute of the dining experience makes you question how you managed to pull off the road in Casper Wyoming and end up somewhere between a garage BBQ IN Tennessee and a juke joint in South Louisiana. We have another winner here, and one worthy of a cross country culinary search. We ate ribs, beans, and Mac & cheese. In my opinion this is the Holy Trinity of BBQ. UNLESS you are in Texas where brisket is the mandatory meat. Any other side is a waste of human vitality when you are contemplating fine BBQ. Q in Casper has well earned its title as the community favorite restaurant. The food quality is matched by enthusiastic service. Great job all!!! Go for a sauce of your preference, traditional, sweet, spiced, it's all great. I don't remember when I was through with my plate and spooned the remaining sauces from the beans, Mac, and meat trying to figure out what made each of them so tasty. Just a point of reference, there was nearly as much meat in the beans as the legumes. These are absolutely world class until you get into Southwest Anasazi, but that's a whole different world of legume love. Overnight in Casper? Don't miss this joint. Get there early or expect a wait for seating. But the wait will be worth it!

    Looking good

    Well I had the brisket and Q with salad and drink. Every thing seemed to taste alright except the drink. I made it home and that is when everything went south. I am not sure if I will ever be able to eat BBQ again. I have never been that sick for a long time. And still lingering on today. I hope no one else had that experience yesterday.

    Super good food nice and filling cornbread was a hit! Need the recipe to it! Missing it

    Ribs and brisket with the sweet bbq sauce and Epic Mac and sweet potato fries on the side.

    I was in Casper for a conference and found this place by chance and it was fantastic. Service was great, food was great. Probably the best sweet potato fries and creamiest Mac I've ever had. Ribs and brisket were good. Just overall great food, service and atmosphere. I'm in Casper 1-2 times a year and this will be on my list of places to eat from now on when I visit.

    Cornbread
    John K E.

    We stopped in for lunch. $30.71 (+ tip) bought a double appetizer of onion rings and zucchini fries, and a 2 meat (brisket, ribs), 2 sides (steamed broccoli and mac 'n cheese) platter, with a refillable soft drink (Pepsi products). We started out with very good cornbread topped with honey butter. Yum. The zucchini fries, while a bit too salty, were nevertheless as tasty as they were unusual. The onion rings were standard commercial fare, but paired well with the mildest of the three excellent house sauces. Both meats had good smoke, but the ribs did not separate cleanly at the bite, and needed the spiciest of the three sauces provided to bring them to life. The same was even more true of the chopped brisket, which otherwise tasted like tender but unseasoned pot roast. There is limited seating here, and the service was slow. For us, therefore, there was not enough here to warrant a return visit.

    Ribs, potato salad, baked beans
    Britton M.

    Had the Monday special-- full rack of ribs and 2 sides for $20. I couldn't believe the value. Excellent dry rub and cook on the ribs, and the baked beans had substantial pieces of brisket. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Casper to stop by.

    Long day that ended in a fantastic meal! Wow! AMAZING! This does not say enough! After 10 hours driving we were looking for a place. I'm glad I found this. We had Prime Rib, an HQ burger, and the Q Plate. When we first got there, we were welcomed with fantastic warm cornbread. Each bite was more amazing. Do yourself a favor and stop and give this a try. I live 7 hrs away and just might bring a group back to have dinner.

    Brisket

    We went to this restaurant for dinner and I ordered a plate of brisket. And they gave me pork and "brisket". I wouldn't call him brisket. It was just shredded meat with bbq sauce to give it flavor. I don't like pork. They only deceive people by selling their shredded meat. They don't know how to cook a good brisket, don't be fooled. And they are not cheap

    Stopped in for a bite while traveling through. Lots of parking available as it looks like its in what was an old gas station. Somewhat small inside but good if you have a large group too. Their menu boats fresh squeezed juice every day. We asked what the juice of the day was and found out it was pineapple, strawberry, orange spritzer. It was tasty and refreshing. My husband ordered "the top two" which includes the ribs and brisket and two sides. He opted for the zucchini fries and the brisket chili. For meat that is supposed to be smoked each day, he found very little smoke flavor. He got the bourbon habanero sauce and found it to be good with a weak kick at the end. The chili had barely any meat in it - in fact he called it "salsa." The zucchini fries were delicious. Would ordered those again. Perfect crunch although some were a little saltier then others. I tried the pulled pork sandwich with mac n cheese. The pulled pork with very moist and the bun was delicious. I got the sweet sauce and really enjoyed the tang. The mac n cheese was decent. White cheddar - although it could have used some more salt.

    Brisket Plate, smoked Brisket topped with sweet BBQ sauce, French fries, and potato salad.

Hamburger Stand is in Casper, Wy. east side. I live in Casper WEST SIDE. I used the drive through. I got home and digged in. A Major Disappointment. The food was mildly warm but old and dry. It looked like it had been sitting on their grill for sometime. My mom got sick the rest of the night and only took one bite. I tried calling HB to rectify, but no answer as they just let it ring. I already knew how this was going to turn out from another like experience a year ago. The next day I didn't call and didn't leave my house. The following day out running errands I stopped in to request replacement or refund. The manager was obnoxious, rude and told me that time of night was close to closing time, that it was two days ago, i i should have come yesterday, and that "we answer our phones" further saying he was not going to do anything about it. The employees took notice of his anger and yelling and stood by speechless. I told him I am 62 years old disabled, I live on the west side of town and I wasn't going to drive there only just for complaint. I was flabbergasted this is the way this business does business. I've bull-horned my entire church and extended family to boycott Hamburger Stand, they agreed. I can't imagine this manger who's name evades me right now a tall slender man with blond hair. I'll NEVER go here again and my new purpose is to exploit this nasty man I, being a former manager of Carl Karcher Ent. California's Carl's Jr. Visalia, California. I know that Hamburger patties are grilled and set aside to enable a charbroiler/grill team to jumpstart to clean the fryers to cool down. The fries by they way were cold and old dried out as well. This manager definitely needs to understand that with intimidation and without his customers, there is no need to keep it's doors open, but perhaps better boarded up. HB used to be a great place to eat and well worth the money under other management. Now it's just getting expensive and the quality of food and its customer's satisfaction is indifferent and is a major disappointment. Sonic is a much better option Jon.ny77928@gmail.com

The Huffle Puffs were some of the best sweet potato tater tots I've ever had. The insides actually had pieces of sweet potato with a crunchy outside. The dipping sauce wasn't my favorite but went very well with the sweetness of the potatoes. The Tremor was a solid bacon cheeseburger. The patty was not too big or too thin, and cooked perfect. It also came with fries which were great. We also got the Freddy, which was good but after a few bites the seasoning was a little overwhelming and the big strips of jalapenos were burning our mouths. A decent pick if that's what you like but a little more than we bargained for. Inside, the restaurant was decked out in horror movie décor and the staff was very friendly and attentive.
