Almost a year since first uncovered, Casper, Wyoming's FireRock Steakhouse will begin serving 28-day aged Angus beef in Centennial this July. Taking over the former Stoney's North Forty Saloon & Barbecue, the meaty 7,934-square-foot footprint will also feature 980 square feet of outdoor seating.
Hoping to be open after the July 4 weekend, the kitchen is operational, new staff is being trained and the reception desk already hosts a small sign welcoming future guests with a "howdy."

Brought to Centennial by Casper entrepreneur John Johnson, the casual restaurant's simple message is "steak, chops, seafood," encouraging guests to "come in and shake off the dust after a long day...no need for reservations or to put on your Sunday-go-to-meetin' clothes. Just come as you are and we'll do the rest."
The menu of familiar American classics menu including burgers, pasta dishes and barbecue ribs and maintains a low-key concept of "'high on the hog' style atmosphere...without selling the ranch to pay for it all."
