Best Dam Barbeque

Great BBQ food over Memorial weekend in Boulder City NV. This is sponsored by the local non-​profit Rotary Club of Boulder City. The event draws thousands of people each year. Between the competitors and the vendors you will have the pleasure to try some of the best BBQ in Nevada as they compete for a spot into the National BBQ competition. Great food, time and family fun.

Great event. Beautiful weather. Some really good BBQ.
The event was well run and there were even some events for the kids. Compared with other competitions I’ve been to more of the tents were selling to the public so that was good.
Another nice thing about this event is that there is a very large grass park adjacent to it. You can grab some ribs and go sit under a tree.
I took a bunch of photos posted them here:

If you aren’t here you are really missing out.
Located at the Park in downtown Boulder City this annual events hosts dozens of bbq vendors, live entertainment and a great atmosphere for the whole family.
This is a serious BBQ competition with the BEST in the SW coming out to compete.
If you wanna eat RIBS you better come early because they go QUICK.@7pm last night there was already a 30 – 45 minute wait.
Best Brisket was @ Big T’s-smoky, crunchy and chopped.
Longest line was at OTH BBQ, it was $ 1 cheaper than the rest.
Papa’s Smokehouse was great with sliced brisket. Fast line and great service. The brisket was great and the roll it was on was out of thsi world. Great sides too.
Whiskey Ranch had the largest display and was steadily busyThey had run out of ribs by 6pm.
Sooooo.I had the pork which was sweet and smoky, with real good bbq sauce available. I wanted to go back just for the beans they were so good, smoky sweet with bacon in them.
There are Dozens more vendors and they also have chicken & kabobs and of course hamburgers & hotdogs.
Prices are fairly reasonable-​Most all sandwiches are $ 8-​come with sides & drink, Ribs$ 10, you can get the burger & hotdogs w/​drink for $ 6
About 20 picnic tables so seating is limited but your welcome to bring lawn chairs, blankets and coolers too.
No carnival rides but the park has a great playground and open area to play.
Only 2 short days with one already passed so you better grab some chairs, a blanket and head out early to grab some bbq. Have a great time!
