From two guys and a grill to 150 campers, multiple art projects and some serious vision, the Playa Q has grown dramatically.

The Playa Q creates multi-sensory performance art. We cook the best BBQ on the playa. We celebrate the artists and do-ers that create Burning Man. We take food and drink and sensory celebrations to new levels. We build a State of Nevada health department certified restaurant quality kitchen in the desert. We serve thousands of meals. We create magic.

We run on two driving principles:

• We look forward to serving you!
• We did not come here to fuck around.

Cooking competitions will pit the best against the best for the coveted title belt. Reverend Smoke and Ubercarney's Pork Protection Patrol ups the ante with the founding of the Chapel of Smoke and an enhanced Fire Bar.

The Q did not come here to fuck around.
