Nevada’s BBQ competition season typically runs from late spring to early fall, with most events taking place from May through September. Some notable BBQ competitions and festivals in Nevada include the Best Dam BBQ Challenge in Boulder City, the Nugget Rib Cook-Off in Sparks, and the Las Vegas BBQ Festival.
Nevada’s BBQ scene is influenced by its proximity to other Western states and other BBQ hotspots, as well as by the state’s unique regional flavors and ingredients. Popular dishes include pulled pork, ribs, brisket, and smoked chicken, as well as Nevada-style BBQ dishes like spicy chili and cactus salsa.
