Brownsboro Hardware & Paint Celebrates “National Barbecue Month”

Conducting Special Events and Deals throughout May Leading up to

"Back to Barbecue Day" on May 29

Louisville, KY– Peak grilling season is upon us and Brownsboro Hardware & Paint will be hosting a month of special events, deals and offerings all leading up to  “Back to Barbecue Day” on Saturday, May 29.

“We have a strong reputation for being this region’s premier destination for grillers,” said Jim Lehrer, co-owner of Brownsboro Hardware & Paint, “so it makes sense that we should celebrate National Barbecue Month with a series of special opportunities at each of our two stores. “

On Monday, May 10, online ticket sales will begin for the company’s 12th annual EGGFest, to beheld August 6 and 7, 2021. Tickets will be limited this year due to COVID restrictions, and tickets will be sold only online. The annual event is a fundraiser for two local food-related charities, Kentucky Harvest and A Recipe to End Hunger.

On Saturday, May 15, Weber will bring its Weber SmokeFire Tour to the Louisville location to demonstrate the company’s new second-generation wood pellet grill. That event will feature demonstrations, giveaways and an opportunity to register to win a new SmokeFire EX6 Wood pellet grill. This event will take place from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Also on May 15, the Prospect location will feature grilling tips and advice for those interested in the Traeger wood pellet grill. That will take place from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.

On May 29th at the Louisville location, representatives from Weber and Big Green Egg will be on hand from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. to provide demonstrations of its various grilling products. That will be in conjunction with a huge May sale that will be going on at both stores.

Throughout the month, Facebook and Instagram users are being invited to post their favorite grilling photos on Brownsboro Hardware & Paints social media pages using the hashtag: #BacktoBarbecue. A prize will be awarded to our favorite grilling picture.

In addition, during the month, Brownsboro Hardware & Paint will be offering information, tips, advice, recipes and special deals on certain grills and accessories all leading up to the big event on May 29.

“Back to Barbecue Day” is the official kick-off to grilling season. With more than ½ of all grill owners cooking out that weekend, “Back to Barbecue Day” also is a national call to check out the latest grills and accessories.

Back to Barbecue Day is presented by Brownsboro Hardware & Paint and Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association (HPBA), the trade association for grill and accessory manufacturers, distributors and retailers nationwide.

“From year-round pit masters to casual weekend grillers, Back to Barbecue Day is a special day for all us to unite around the flame in celebration of our favorite summer pastime,” said Lehrer. “We are proud to be a part of National Barbecue Month and Back to Barbecue Day, and we look forward to seeing fellow grillers in our stores this grilling season.”
