The trucks will also likely be out on Sunday, either at the Great Lawn or at the Harrison County West Biloxi Beach Launch south of Treasure Bay, according to the release.
The show last stopped in Galveston, Texas and Lake Charles, Louisiana, its host and celebrity chef Tyler Florence said on Facebook.
The show films each episode in a different city, and begins with a group of food trucks who compete in a series of challenges to make the most money. The team that makes the least money in each location goes home, and as the competition jumps from city to city, Florence cuts teams until one winner gets $50,000.
The show filmed in Lake Charles on Monday. Seven food trucks made it to the city to film one episode over two days, according to the city’s tourism agency.
