Welcome to ShoppersChoice.com! Welcome to our team! We are excited that you are visiting us online and are interested in who we are, where we came from, and what we do.

We originally opened in 1998 as The Grill Store & More, an actual brick and mortar store, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Owners Michael and Ladina Hackley started the business from scratch and worked it for the first year by themselves 7 days a week. By 2000, the business had expanded to two stores in Baton Rouge, and a franchise location in New Orleans. We were still looking to expand, but seemed to have tapped the Louisiana market, and so looked to the internet for added revenues. We launched our first website, www.thegrillstoreandmore.com, in 2001 with 7000 products. This was followed shortly thereafter with www.bbqguys.com with a full color catalog that corresponded to the site.
