Barbeques Galore was founded in 1972 in a residential garage in Sydney, Australia. The company designs, sells, and manufactures BBQ grills and other outdoor items for the home.
The first store opened in Australia in 1977. The company expanded to the US, opening its first store in 1980. At first the company only placed stores in warmer areas, where people can grill outdoors almost year around. Later, the company began expanding into seasonal areas, such as Virginia and Maryland. The recession of 2008 hit the company hard and it filed for bankruptcy in August of 2008. Barbeques Galore was purchased by Grand Home Holdings, Inc. out of bankruptcy court. The new owners immediately closed all locations east of Texas.
Today, Barbeques Galore has 23 locations in Texas, California, and Arizona. They have updated their inventory to also include items such as fire pits, outdoor patio furniture, outdoor heaters, and kitchens.

We purchased a TE 54″ Grill/Rotis/Sear Zone/Built In-NG several weeks ago from your Irvine,CA store….Cust. Order # 10212111713….account# 590477. It was installed by Outdoor Entertainment Designs more than 2 weeks ago. we reported immediately that one burner plus the rotisserie did not work plus not instruction manual was left. In addition, the instillation was incomplete and unfinished. We have called the Irvine store many times and they defer to the install people. The install people are unresponsive. The bottom line is that our plans for a Memorial Day barbeque and also Fathers Day area loss. We paid more than $8,000 for this disaster and I am at the point of hiring a lawyer and the better business bureau. PJD
