COMPETITOR
BLAZIN BARRELS BBQ
HEAD COOK: Barnaby Antunez
COMPETITION: World Barbecue Championship
I am a Mexican-American chef born and raised in Southern California trying to bring authentic Mexican flavors into competition BBQ. My passion for cooking began as a child helping my mom in the kitchen and grew after spending a few years in culinary school. That grew into a Taco Catering business that I’ve had for 6 years. In 2023, I entered my first World Food Championships and finished 3rd.
