2021 BBQ COOK-OFF

We’re super excited to have y’all back in downtown! So get your smokers dusted off, and come on over for Lovington, New Mexico’s 11th Annual Smokin’ On The Plaza BBQ Cook-Off!!! The Cook-Off will take place on Friday, June 18th & Saturday, June 19th in downtown Lovington.

Located in southeastern New Mexico, nestled near the Texas border, Lovington is the county seat and heart of Lea County. We are New Mexico proud with a west Texas twang. Smokin’ on the Plaza is a two-day street festival, filled with BBQ, country music, and Urlager. Free and open to the public, join us for live entertainment at the Lea County Museum Pavilion & amphitheater. There are pockets of fun to be had – events, destinations, businesses.
