Show Your NBBQA Pride in 2026

A small badge. A big statement.

NBBQA members, you are part of something special—an organization built on connection, education, and lifting up the barbecue industry as a whole. Whether you’re a sauce maker, pit builder, caterer, content creator, restaurateur, or BBQ brand that’s still growing… your membership says something:

You believe in doing BBQ better, together.

That’s why we’re asking every member to do one simple thing this week:

✅ Display your “Proud NBBQA Member 2026” badge

Put it where customers can see it—on your website and across your social media pages.

When you show your badge publicly, you’re doing more than posting a graphic. You’re telling the world you’re connected to a professional community, committed to credibility, and invested in growth.

Why this matters (more than you think)

1) It builds trust fast

People want to buy from brands they can trust. A membership badge works like a “stamp of credibility”—especially for online shoppers who don’t know you yet.

2) It strengthens ALL of us

When members show up proudly, NBBQA looks stronger—and a strong NBBQA means more visibility, more partnerships, and more opportunities for members.

3) It helps customers find you

When you mention NBBQA in your bio, captions, and posts, it makes it easier for people to connect the dots and discover member businesses.

Easy ways to use your badge (pick 2–3)

On your website

• Add it to your homepage (footer or header works great)

• Add it to your About page

• Add it to your Media Kit or “As Seen In / Memberships” section

• Add it to your online store (near checkout badges is perfect)

Suggested website line:

Proud Member of the National Barbecue & Grilling Association (NBBQA) — 2026

On social media

• Make it your profile cover photo (Facebook/X)

• Add it to your Instagram highlights (“About Us” or “Awards/Membership”)

• Post it as a pinned post (Facebook/X)

• Drop it into your Reels/TikTok outro slide

• Use it in product posts and “meet the maker” posts

Suggested caption (copy/paste):

Let’s make this a movement

If you’ve ever said, “I want more people to know what we do,” this is one of the easiest steps you can take. A badge is simple—but the message is powerful:

We’re in this together.
We’re building something bigger than a single brand.
And we’re proud to be NBBQA.

🔥 Post your badge this week—and let the BBQ world see who you roll with.
