BBQ Kingdom, believed to be the only retail shop in the Midlands dedicated to barbecues and barbecue accessories, has opened its doors in Dudley.

The first BBQ Kingdom shop opened by Wolverhampton businessman Johnny Deol, owner of Big Star Fireworks. If it's a success, he hopes to open more.

The man behind the flames, Johhny Deol, is known for lighting up the skies with his fireworks business. 

Now he's lighting up grills with his latest venture BBQ Kingdom and is setting his sights on dominating the BBQ market.

Businessman Mr Deol, who also runs Jack's Café & Bar in Wolverhampton, said: “I saw a real gap in the market. There are plenty of garden centres and DIY stores that sell barbecues as an afterthought, but nowhere in the Midlands offers the full BBQ experience under one roof. BBQ Kingdom changes that.”
