BGE Dealer in Cincinnati, Northern KY Area

Options
I was looking for a good BGE dealer in the NKY or Cincinnati dealer.  I have had my egg for about a year now and the dealer I purchased from in Florence just recently went out of business.  I had a warranty claim for a firebox with them and cannot get an answer on what is going to happen.  Anyone know of a good one that I could work with?  Thanks in advance...

    Two good ones are Ward Way on the west side of Cincinnati and McCabe's Lumber. Ward Way participates in Porkopolis (area EggFest)

    Also, I bought mine at Pool Stuff by Jungle Jim's in Fairfield on Gilmore. Very nice people that could possibly help you, but not as knowledgable as the other two.

    If you don't mind a little drive down to Versailles, Ky., I highly recommend  Mike Drury at Bluegrass Grills. He is on here also, @ THE DRU.  Send him a message.  The guy loves to egg and will spend as long as you want, discussing various cooking methods and foods and accessories.  I'm almost inclined to believe he became a BGE dealer just so he would have more opportunities to talk Egg.  And he carries Rockwood lump, that is how I found him.

    I bought my XL Egg from Wardway Fuels.

    I live closer to the Pool Stuff place by Jungle Jim's though.  Might have to stop in there and check them out.
    Also found Don Marcum's pool supply on 32 in Newtown one weekend during one of my daughters soccer tournaments.
    I'm in the market for a Mini Max.  First one that gets it in, gets my business.

    Wardaway. They are our dealer, West Side -the best side-of Cincy. Always cooking something on the weekend, weather permitting, and have been very helpful.

    If you are going to head down and see Mike, be sure to let him know you are coming so he will be there, here is his web site.  It has his phone # and lots of other info.
