Challenges Faced
Perseverance in the Face of Adversity
Mickey’s journey wasn’t always easy.
Starting with limited funds and no business plan, she faced the hard realities of bringing her dream to life. After just nine months, her first store had to close its doors, and bankruptcy loomed large. But Mickey never gave up. She drew strength from her faith and her family, knowing that she had something too special to quit on.
"I didn’t have all the wisdom back then, and there were times when it felt like I’d never make it. But my daughter, Michelle, would ask me when I was going to write the recipe down.
And that’s when I knew—I couldn’t stop.
This sauce is a part of me, and I knew it could bring joy to others just like it did to my family."
Through perseverance, prayer, and a relentless belief in her product, Mickey pushed forward. Today, Mickee’s Barbecue Sauce can be found in local stores across Birmingham, Alabama, with dreams of reaching kitchens across the country.
Our Story
A Family Recipe, A Labor of Love
In the kitchen of a Southern home, surrounded by the aroma of slow-cooked barbecue, Mickee’s Barbeque Sauce was born. Mickey Gunn, the heart and soul behind Mickee’s, started with a simple idea—create a sauce that brings people together, just like her family’s Sunday dinners.
Inspired by her mother and led by her faith, Mickey crafted each bottle with the care and patience only a seasoned cook could have.
It wasn’t long before this beloved family recipe became a local sensation. With each batch, friends and family clamored for more, and Mickey knew she had something special.
That's what sets Mickee’s apart isn’t just the flavor—it’s the love and legacy poured into every bottle. This isn’t just barbecue sauce, it’s a taste of home, a flavor that tells a story.
