ABOUT BBQ QUÉBEC
BBQ Québec was founded by Max and JP Lavoie, two young visionaries from the Chaudière-Appalaches region. These two foodies started working in their parents’ hardware store at a young age where they decided to become BBQ experts. BBQ models, cooking techniques, accessories and products available, they learned everything they could on the subject so they could share the BBQ culture. They opened their first store in Sainte-Foy in 2014 and went on to open a second one in Boucherville in 2015. The duo opened their third store in Laval in 2016. They cater to the needs of barbecue lovers, both professionals and home cooks, providing them with unique products, services and even BBQ lessons. Their one-of-a-kind approach is what makes their stores so popular. The brand quickly became a synonym of quality throughout the province and the www.bbqquebec.com Website is now a reference.
