The grills heat up on Friday, April 26, 2019, as RHI prepares for the 12th consecutive year of its spring barbecue chicken dinner fundraiser.
The $7-a-plate dinners will be cooked and served at 414 Raleigh Road, the location of RHI’s office and warehouse in the former Coca-Cola building. You’re invited to eat in or take out from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Delivery of five or more plates to one location is available.
Purchase your tickets at our office or from one of our many volunteers.
Preparations begin the day before the event as volunteers fill cups with barbecue sauce and bag bread.
At about 4:30 a.m. on the last Friday of every April, volunteers fire up more than a dozen mobile grills to cook about 2,300 chicken halves. The menu includes green beans and potatoes.
A much-loved part of every plate is Roger Bibee’s barbecue sauce, which is also available for $5 a pint.
The event marks the third spring fundraiser held at the Raleigh Road location.
