This Hidden Gem of a Restaurant in Big Timber is Fantastic!
I've only been told great things about this restaurant, and I don't know what took me so long to visit this establishment.
I was heading back from Lewistown yesterday afternoon, and I was starving for some food. I asked my friend if he wanted to stop in Big Timber for dinner, and he agreed but asked where we should go. I told him there was one restaurant I always wanted to try out because I'd only heard great things about their food.

The restaurant I am talking about is the Thirsty Turtle Burgers & BBQ in Big TImber. If I were ever to stop in Big Timber, I was told by several people I should eat there, and I am so glad we did.
The Thirsty Turtle Burgers & BBQ was fantastic. The staff was super friendly, the atmosphere was laid back, and the food was delicious. Their menu has BBQ, burgers, sandwiches, and much more!
I went simple for my first meal there and got a bacon cheddar steak burger, and it was top-tier. The burger was one of the best I've had in Montana. My friend and I also ordered an appetizer called cowboy corn nuggets, it was recommended by the staff, and this little appetizer blew us away.
I know Big Timber seems a bit out of the way to travel for a meal, but if you are heading into eastern Montana anytime soon, plan a stop in Big Timber and get yourself a great meal. You won't regret it.
