It's start of the grilling season, and the Johnsonville Big Taste Grill is back in town. It's not only looking to satisfy your appetite, but to help raise money for the Peoria Komen Race for the Cure.

The Big Taste Grill is set-up outside both Cub Foods stores in Peoria. They're selling fresh-grilled brats, potato chips, and bottled water for $2.50.

All the proceeds will benefit the Race for the Cure. This is the 12th year the 53-thousand pound grill is ushering in the outdoor cooking season.

The grill is open again Sunday starting at 10:30 in the morning. The race for the cure is next Saturday, May 10th and there's still time to sign up.

This is a great fund raiser and we look forward to it every year. Imagine how disappointed we were when arrived on Saturday at 4:30 pm and the whole operation was shut down. There was not a single worker. The adds indicated that the hours were 10:30 - 5:00.
