BBQ Québec is a Quebec company that was created in 2012 by brothers Maxime (Max) and Jean-Philippe (JP) Lavoie.
BBQ Québec not only offers high quality BBQs and accessories, but also promotes the BBQ lifestyle.
In Quebec, winters are generally cold, which means that the BBQ season takes place, for the majority of the province's inhabitants, in the summer. The Lavoie brothers' passion for BBQ, on the other hand, is present at all times and that is what pushed them to offer a variety of products and BBQs that can be used all year round in their BBQ Québec stores.
By offering products such as charcoal, dry marinades and sauces, they were able to develop, over time, a market that was practically non-existent at the time in the province.
Five years later, the Lavoie brothers had (and still have today) a total of five stores. One in Sainte-Foy and Saint-Jean-Chrysostome, in the Quebec region, then three in the Montreal region, one in Boucherville, one in Laval and one in Montreal.
Although the two brothers have several stores, BBQ Québec products are not exclusively available in these stores. In fact, they can also be found at more than 90 BMR Group merchants!
A proud retailer of Napoleon and Weber products, BBQ Québec also offers a wide variety of BBQs and cooking accessories of all kinds and brands, including Grill Daddy, Blaze Grills, Steven Raichlen, Sunterra, Arteflame, Bourbon Q, Kamado Joe and Hamrforge.
The BBQ Québec (Quebec line) and House of BBQ Experts (Canadian and international line) product lines now include 7 dry rubs, 7 sauces and more than a dozen BBQ accessories each. In fact, it was after participating in various competitions around the world (the Lavoie brothers even won a few podiums) that Max and JP decided to create their own product lines.
The BBQ Québec product line now includes 7 dry marinades, 7 sauces and more than a dozen barbecue accessories for the BBQ Québec (Quebec product line) and House of BBQ Experts (Canadian and international line) brands.
In early 2017, BBQ Québec developed a brand new concept with BMR, a group of 325 hardware retailers, to be able to offer BBQ Québec products throughout the province. Since then, working with BMR has made BBQ Québec products available in Ontario and Eastern Canada in addition to Quebec.
In fact, BBQ Québec owes its reputation to its sharing of the BBQ lifestyle and its desire to change the world, one BBQ at a time.
The company's mission is to provide excellent customer service and a wide variety of products that cannot be found elsewhere.
As leaders in the field, Max and JP have been seen and heard on various television shows as well as in several radio interviews throughout Quebec. A documentary about four passionate and dedicated young entrepreneurs was even produced in 2016 and broadcast on Z Télé. Max and JP were among these entrepreneurs.
Just like its creators, the BBQ Québec company is a leader in its field in Quebec. Indeed, its reputation makes it a destination of choice for the purchase of a BBQ or any other accessory related to BBQs. The products it offers, its passionate team, its excellent customer service and, also, its strong brand image, make it a unique company that stands out from the others.
Moreover, BBQ Québec is also recognized in the BBQ world for its popular BBQ classes offered in its branches, another aspect that sets it apart.
In an effort to continue its mission of wanting to offer high quality products in the province, but also in the rest of the country, the company's website will soon be available in French, English and Spanish.
