4.75, but very close to a true "5." HUGE portions. I know this reference won't relate to the people that are looking to try HQ and the people that have had Pickles & Bones probably won't find themselves in Casper, WY, but I would still, without fail, put Pickles & Bones as #1, but this place was great. Pete Rose poster on the wall and Phish playing when I walked in--I knew I would like this place. Brisket was a 4, all of the sides were 5s. We placed a call ahead order and it was ready within the timeframe they said. The guy that took my order and delivered out To Go order was really nice and helpful. read more

There were five of us today, most of us having brisket and I had the half chicken. My chicken with sauce on the side was excellent, my broccoli was good, potato salad was OK. They bring your cornbread up front with butter for all of us which was nice, kept our drinks full, friendly service, and everyone that was with me and enjoyed their meals and actually had to take some home. I myself am not a fan of chopped brisket, the gentleman with me all said it was excellent. read more

Excellent BBQ, always nice to find good food In unusual places, a ghost town. Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx read more

Read about this place on Yelp and tried it based on those and we were glad we did. It's an old gas station, not very big, but the food is so good and very reasonable. That pulled pork plate was $11.00. Other reviews said the service was slow, but we did not experience that. Our food was delivered very quickly. Definitely give it a try. read more

In need of an overhaul, food is still the same from years ago but the flys when eating , just cant get past that.

Hot sausage and brisket chili on a bun can't be beat but it's worth coming here just for the cornbread

Great service, good food. I would definitely go back. Brisket was delicious. My only criticism is that the Epic mac & cheese is really just noodles and Velveeta(with a little cheese, sprinkled on top ) I would still order it again though! read more

Wow passing through Wyoming from North Idaho. Found an amazing bbq joint! Had the Mac n cheese chili, best I've ever had! My guy had the brisket plate and said it was some of the best bbq he's ever had. If you have the chance to stop and eat here, you will not be disappointed! read more

Best in Casper! Big portions, well smoked, great service. I'll go back again. The prime rib is best I've had. And 1/2 the price I normally pay. read more

BEST pulled pork I've had in forever! Husband had the slab of ribs and they were tender and meaty and the sauce was excellent. Sweet potatoes fried were perfectly done. Real "southern" sweet tea was the perfect touch. We will be back for sure. read more

Stopped here on our road trip 2022 - so glad we did! So good! Had a sampler platter with ribs and pulled pork. Delicious! Cornbread and Mac and Cheese rocked too! read more

Incredible restaurant. The pricing was very reasonable. The quality of the food was astonishing. To start the meal they bring out homemade cornbread which is buttery rich. Then I ordered the pork BBQ and you have to order HQ style with the coleslaw and onion rings. The onion rings were crispy and added a crunch to the sandwich. The bbq sauce I chose was the habanero bbq and it was something I would absolutely get again. It had the right amount of spice with a perfect tangy zing to it to complement. The service was awesome from the time we walked in to the time we left. This place is a must stop when you are in the Casper area. I would rate this up against any Tennessee, Texas or Kansas Coity BBQ. read more

WOW! This is THE PLACE! Traveling through with our family of 4 (kids 7&10) and the whole family is so happy! We got the ribs platter, sweet potato fries, baked beans and Mac and cheese - everything was delicious! Who knew you could get such great Memphis BBQ is Wyoming don't hesitate, make this your dinner plans! read more

Stayed in Casper for one night on vacation and decided to try this BBQ spot. Wow, glad we did! Happened to go Thursday night and the special was smoked prime rib. When ordering, the waiter asked if I wanted the 12oz or 16oz... went for the 16, but what came out on my plate was more like 22-24oz! Huge portions and the prime rib was one of the best I've ever had! Also, I was delighted that the sides were amazing as well - creamed corn, Mac & cheese, bomb potato salad! Most BBQ places focus on just the meat, and the sides are just afterthoughts. Not here! I could not stop eating the mound of potato salad and other sides! If you're in Casper and looking for a great dinner, hit up HQ BBQ! Highly recommend!!! read more

Love their Mac and cheese, the beans are also amazing I always order the ribs but last time they were very tough normally they fall off the bone. That is my only complaint it won't stop me from eating there again and ordering g the ribs the sweet sauce is amazing! read more

In dining was great service (Jacob is wonderful) and food was outstanding. Loved the bourbon habanero bbq sauce! great local beer selection and for those bourbon whiskey drinkers a good selection. Bonus super affordable..Highly recommend read more

Best BBQ in town! Love the atmosphere and delicious food! The staff is wonderful, too! I really enjoy this restaurant!

So good! We were traveling through and had a craving for some BBQ so we decided to check this little place out. We got Mac n cheese, pulled pork and chili to go. The waitress was so nice, brought the food out to us and was very personable. We opened it all up when we got to our campsite and were happy with all of it! Creamy savory Mac and cheese... super flavorful chili with hearty chunks of tomato and the pulled pork with BBQ sauce were tender/ shredded and cooked perfectly. If we lived here this would be our new BBQ spot! read more

HQ BBQ is a remodeled gas station that has become a BBQ hot spot. The wait on Sun at 6pm was 30 min, so I opted to sit at the bar. Per Yelp recommendations, I ordered the "Top 2," which is 4 ribs, brisket and two sides. The bartender recommended having the ribs done dry rub with spicy BBQ sauce on the side, which was absolutely delicious. The dry rub allows the edges of the ribs to crisp up while keeping the inside chewy and tender. The "spicy" sauce is quite mild but robustly flavored and perfect for the ribs and the delightful zucchini fries. I thought the brisket was on the dry side, though they are pretty flavorful with some BBQ sauce and are still quite good reheated. I had the mac n cheese and the zucchini fries as sides. Oh my goodness, the zucchini fries are so good!! So hot and tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. The mac n cheese I was disappointed with after all the rave reviews on here as well as from the lady next to me who said she always orders double mac. There was not much depth of flavor to the mac; just noodle, sticky cheddar roux, and some unmelted shredded cheese as a topper. Service was very slow. The bartender was also the waitress for what seemed like half the restaurant and the kitchen was fairly slow (~25min). I would definitely recommend the ribs - dry rub with spicy sauce on the side - and a delightful order of zucchini fries. read more

HQ BBQ - Top 2: ribs, brisket, zucchini fries and Mac n cheese - Barbeque Near Me - Evansville, Wyoming

Okay, if there's one reason and one reason only to move to Casper, it's HQ BBQ. HQ is barbecue heroin. Our hotel receptionist said it was the best barbecue in the state and while I'm not a Wyoming barbecue expert, it definitely ranks with the best barbecue I've had anywhere. The night we were there they were having a special, a full slab for... wait for it.... $17.00. Seriously. It came with 2 sides, I chose TO DIE FOR Mac and Cheese and DEEElicious zucchini fries. We took the huge amount of left overs with us and the next night when we were hundreds of miles from HQ - we had delectable ribs again. Drinks were good too, don't miss them. Prices are great, portions are large, service is fast, efficient, and friendly. The place is clean and basic. It's no frills barbecue at it's best. read more

Disclaimer: this is a 4 for Casper I have family in NC and TX and have had an unhealthy amount of BBQ in both so this isn't entirely fair. However, I have to say it is decent and better than most places that do BBQ in random spots, especially in a smaller place like Casper. I have had BBQ on the west coast, Denver, the southwest and it was comparatively garbage so I think this place is doing some things right. Only real knock is meat is a bit too dry and the sauce is a little too sweet. The sides are solid though which is a big plus. I mean it is hard to compete in the big leagues with the meat so do the little things right. I will be coming back and the people working there were nice. read more

This place is amazing. If you aren't looking for it you might miss it. It looks like it is in an old gas station building maybe. It's pretty small inside, but we ordered our food to go and it was EXCELLENT! Some of the best bbq I have had on this side of the country. We ordered the Q sandwich, potato salad, 1/2 rack of ribs, epic Mac n cheese, and beans. It was sooo good and a lot of food. Delicious and great value, I would absolutely eat here again. It was a great experience! read more

Normally a bbq joint is pretty quick because all the meat is smoked and ready to go. Sides are also ready to serve for the most part. That brings to question why the service here could be so slow. It wasn't a full restaurant when we arrived early for dinner (5 pm). They do have a lot of take out orders, but those weren't moving out swiftly. It was 20 minutes from the time we arrived before they even took our order. Then ANOTHER 57 minutes to get our food. At least the food was good. Otherwise I would have given it one star. read more

Unfortunately we never got our food to know if it was any good. 45 minutes after ordering we finally flagged down the waiter (that we hadn't spoken to since 15 minutes earlier when he said it was almost ready) only to learn it would be another 15 minutes because they hadn't started cooking the burger and there was still another ticket ahead before they would. I have never waited an hour AFTER ordering. Our order was just pulled pork, burger and sides. They were obviously understaffed since two tables near us went unbussed for almost 10 minutes while a crowd waited to be seated. So I sympathize with the staff but an hour to wait for food while takeout orders were rapidly going out the door indicates a need for better kitchen management. There was a meek apology but we left because we needed to get back on the road. read more

We ended up in this town due to my stepson playing his hockey championship game. So my husband really wanted to go to a steakhouse but we stumbled upon this BBQ restaurant via Yelp. After reading reviews, how could we not try out their BBQ?! We arrived at noon on a Sunday in which they unlocked the doors as soon as we walked up to the entrance. Seated very quickly as we were the first guests to walk through the door. Our waiter/bartender came over to grab our drink order so service here is quite exceptional for a restaurant operating out of an old gas station. Loved the set-up of the restaurant. For our food selections, we read through a few yelp reviews as well as asking for suggestions. He mentioned that their ribs, brisket and pulled pork (which are all cooked in a smoker at the same time) were all popular dishes with their zucchini fries, Mac and cheese, and Cole slaw as their top sides. We decided to order their "top two" from the menu which is their ribs and brisket with zucchini fries and Mac and cheese as our sides. Since it was Sunday, they had a special for 2 for 1 bloody Mary. Our drinks and food arrived very quickly! The bloody Mary was one of the better bloody Mary's I've had in awhile! They put their dry rub on the rims of the bloody Mary and it gave that little extra. The sides were amazing, the zucchini fries were nice and crunchy and I loved dipping them in the buttermilk ranch that also had the dry rub spice in it. The mac and cheese was cheesy, I loved it! Our main course, the ribs were made with the dry rub so it wasn't my favorite but I loved the brisket because it was cooked wet meaning it was very moist. That's just my palate though and everything was amazing! So if you are ever passing through or stopping over in Casper, I'd definitely recommend this BBQ joint as it's right off of the exit of i25 and the prices are quite reasonable! read more

BBQ is actually quite good for anything outside of the south. Would give more stars but every time we have dined there it's at least 40-45 minutes for the meals to come out. Either they need more staff or better efficiency in the expediting. read more

This is my first stop in Casper, every time I visit! I always order the dry ribs, which are delicious with the perfect amount of smokey flavor. I then get the macaroni and cheese with broccoli. If you like to add heat to your meal, they have a spicy sauce that typically comes with their wings. I order this and put it into my mac and cheese. The service is always fantastic! read more

We split the Monday special of Bonedaddy with two sides. Full rack of ribs with the bourbon habanero sauce. The ribs were cooked perfectly a but the sauce could have been spicier. For our sides, we selected the zucchini fries and the baked beans and both were great. I took one star away because they had 5 beer taps but only two had beer. read more

Great place to eat. Everything we got was very tasty and the staff was super friendly. The lyrics also had a few local brews on tap too. Only drawback was the acoustics of the place made it pretty loud even when it wasn't full. That said I would absolutely eat here again. read more

Nice, friendly staff. Attentive, giving refills before you finish your drink. Good options on the menu, LARGE portions. We were not really a fan of the zucchini fries. For me, the chicken was a bit dry. I absolutely LOVED the free cornbread they give you, and I usually dislike cornbread. I could've just eaten that, it was SO good. read more

Very good be prepared to wait as they are extremely busy all the time. It's definitely worth the wait.

The zucchini fries are amazing. The addition of HQ style to a burger is great. The Epic Mac is not so epic. The creamed corn is pretty good. But again on the zucchini fries they are amazing. The pulled pork or "Q" was a little dry same with the brisket but the sauces takes care of that nicely. There are three different sauces regular,sweet, and spicy. I really liked the sweet. The sweet tea is very nice And comes in a mason jar. The andouille sausage was very spicy and tasty. If you are looking for great bbq this is the place and the place is a old gas station. Oh yeah, the rib are good too. read more
