JACKSON, Wyo. – Located south of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort on Moose-Wilson Road, Q Roadhouse & Brewing Co. opened for business in 2006, with brewery operations starting in 2013. Their mission, according to General Manager Park Dunn-Morrison: “[To] find a balance between taste buds in locals, destination guests, and second home owners.”
The brick and wood-slat walls inside portray a comfortable atmosphere, where cowboy boot-wearing old-timers mingle with tourists and locals in ski boots. Brew taps rotate daily and feature local beers as well as creations brewed in house by the Roadhouse brewery. The menu, created by Chef de Cuisine Matty Melehes and Executive Chef Roger Freedman, contains hearty barbeque selections plus surprises that keep customers coming back.
“[Freedman] created a style unique to Jackson after touring barbeque joints in the south,” Dunn-Morrison said. “There’s an international influence, not just barbecue,” he added, saying that Melehes’ roots also stretch to Baja, Mexico.
The menu focuses on fresh ingredients sourced from 12 regional Mountain West farms and ranches, including products from three Jackson-based suppliers. Don’t miss the Tacos de Carnitas, which incorporate pork sourced from Utah with classic Baja flavors like salsa verde.
Barbeque fans won’t be disappointed with Q’s take on pulled pork smoked with pecan, apple and hickory; and other chefs will want to step up their games after tasting it as well. Order the Roadhouse BBQ Platter, which is stacked with pulled pork, St. Louis spare ribs, Andouille sausage, sliced brisket, and fried Brussels sprouts.
Seafood enthusiasts should order the Blackened Catfish served with shrimp on a bed of Anson Mills Carolina gold rice, its buttery flavor coupled with a texture similar to risotto.
For something fresh and crunchy, try the Ebony & Ivory, a kale-based salad containing fresh apricots and peanuts with notes of citrus. The inspiration for the name of this dish derived from the classic song by Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder, and fits well with the color scheme of white quinoa and black lentils.
Stop in and make yourself at home. This place lacks presumption – in fact they’re down to earth. Not necessarily geared toward the 1 percent, but they’re in the top 1 percent for flavor and service. Occupy Q Roadhouse.

We all are familiar with using a limited palette, but do you use one? Do you know how to use a limited palette to create different color combinations? Are you tired of carrying around 15-20 different tubes when you paint plein air? Have you ever wanted to create a certain “mood” in a painting but failed? Do you create a lot of mud? Do you struggle to achieve color harmony? All these problems are addressed in John’s workbook in clear and concise language!
Based on the bestselling “Limited Palatte, Unlimited Color” workbook written by John Pototschnik, the workshop is run by Maggie Shane and Annie McCoy, accomplished landscape (acrylic) and plein air (oil) artists,exhibitors at the Big Sky Artists’ Studio & Gallery and members of the Big Sky Artists Collective.
Each student will receive a copy of “Limited Palette, Unlimited Color” to keep and take home to continue your limited palette journey. We will show you how to use the color wheel and mix your own clean mixtures to successfully create a mood for your paintings.
Each day, we will create a different limited palette color chart and paint a version of a simple landscape using John’s directives. You will then be able to go home and paint more schemes using the book for guidance.
Workshop is open to painters (oil or acrylic) of any level although students must have some basic knowledge of the medium he or she uses. Students will be provided the book ($92 value), color wheel, value scale and canvas papers to complete the daily exercises.
Sundays, April 14, 21 and 28, 2024
Noon until 6PM.
$170.
