Chuck Wagon Dinner

The introduction of food trucks was the Chuck Wagon. Cowboys had long days working in the field tending to the cattle herds which brought on quite the appetite. The only solution was to bring their food with them. They loaded up their Chuck Wagons with enough food to feed an army of hungry wranglers. This was an essential part of the cowboy way of life. 3 Lazy R Chuck Wagon has been sharing its award-winning brisket, beans, potatoes, and cobbler for the past three summers with the visitors of Hell on Wheels Rodeo and Chuck Wagon Dinner. You have the opportunity to experience a taste of the true West in Cheyenne. The dinner kicks off at 5:30 pm on rodeo nights.
