These salads are serious meals. The West may be best known for its wild game and locally raised meats, and in Jackson Hole, salads stand by on menus as unsung heroes. Packed with fresh (and, in summer, often locally grown), vibrant ingredients, they can be as passionately composed as main courses. “The salad is not just a dish; it reflects our commitment to bringing people together through the universal language of food,” says Figs general manager Sadek Darwiche. Here are five local salads worthy of epicurean curiosity.

These pies are as fun to order as they are to eat. Is a summer visit to Grand Teton National Park really a visit if you don’t get pizza at Dornans and take it up to the restaurant’s rooftop deck to eat while enjoying the views?

In the two years since Jackson local Deirdre Griffith won the epic Mongol Derby—a 1,000-kilometer equestrian endurance race that recreates the horse messenger system developed by Genghis Khan in 1224—the longtime equestrienne has been busy. She helped to spearhead the Parental Mental Wellness program at St. John’s Health; earned recognition as one of the valley’s top-producing realtors; continued to raise two daughters, Lilah, 8, and Delaney, 6, with husband, Vance; and trained horses at the family’s rural property south of town.

Once it hits 11 a.m. at Sweet Cheeks Meats, lunch is served. A post on the company’s Instagram story, (@sweetcheeksmeats) shows the day’s menu options. These could include the Brisket Burg, a pulled-pork sandwich, a Cubano, a grinder, or the Bliss (house-made ham, European butter, Dijon, and Swiss cheese on a 460 Bread baguette).
