His family's tradition of BBQ goes back more than 8 decades in Palm Beach County, but keeping that tradition alive has been hard-fought and expensive! If you haven't tasted McCray's Backyard BBQ, you haven't lived. He has cooked for locals, dignitaries, and elected officials and is a favorite at the Super Bowl every year.
