Keeping Kosher In Jackson Hole

The Skiing RabbiWe frequently receive inquiries about keeping kosher in Jackson Hole. There are no kosher restaurants in Jackson Hole. You can now purchase kosher meat at the Jackson Hole Grocer. They have kosher hamburger paties (which we had at our membership party in 2009 and they were delicious!), and chuck and ribeye steaks. They will soon carry kosher chicken as well.

There are vegetarian dishes in many restaurants. You will find some of the nationally branded kosher products at the grocery stores in Jackson. They also have a variety of kosher cheeses and other kosher products for sale. The major grocery stores are approximately 2 miles from the square, and are easy to drive or take the town shuttle to.
