The Great Food Truck Race celebrates the summer with a Tyler Florence-hosted culinary beach battle along the Atlantic coast, with nine teams of aspiring food truck owners with unique concepts competing for a $50,000 grand prize.
Our special guests today called Virginia Beach home. Team Madea Made is Married couple Hope and Andre Thourogood and Hope’s twin sister Faith Johnson. This team serving up faith, family, and food with dishes described as Southern soul food with innovation. The trio is dedicated to their church, but just because their beliefs are strong – it doesn’t mean they aren’t competitive. Their truck name honors Hope and Faith’s grandmother Madea and the legacy of generations that came before them.
