Locally owned McCinnis 12 Bone BBQ recently won the Golden Ticket Award and will now compete at the World Food Championships.

One local BBQ recently won an award that will allow them to compete at the national level.

McCinnis 12 Bone BBQ won the golden ticket award at this year’s Gulf Coast Beer, Bacon – and BBQ festival. This means they’ve secured their spot in this year’s World Food Championship in Indianapolis.

Owners Alton and Sonzie McCinnis spoke about what this award means, and how they’re getting ready for the championships.

“To win this award it’s a very high award. I’ve been working on trying to get the golden ticket for 7 years. So, in order for me to get it, it’s an honor.  Hopefully we’ve got enough time to prepare. Get all the equipment ready to go and get it up there.”

The World Food Championships will take place in Indianapolis this November.
