1500 people attended the 8th annual Bacon Bash Texas on October 19, 2019 in support of Niki Warms the Cold, which distributes coats and blankets to those in need across the state of Texas, as well as Bacon Bash Texas’ own charity, which has started a scholarship fund to send children with Type 1 Diabetes to specialized diabetes camps and provide funding to families for a Continuous Glucose Monitoring System. The cook off and auction, which took place on the main street of Cranfills Gap, Texas, grossed over $65,000.
Festival goers walked the streets of Cranfills Gap enjoying bacon and pork butt samples as well as selections of beers, Bloody Marys, and Texas wines. The festival also offered a Cornhole Tournament sponsored by GameGuard Outdoors, a great lineup of Texas Country music, and a live auction.
