TUPELO, MISS. (WCBI) -All the votes are counted in a culinary contest and a Tupelo restaurant is the clear winner.

The Neon Pig’s “Smashburger” beat out the Americana burger at Causwell’s, a San Francisco restaurant. The Neon Pig garnered 56 percent to 43 percent for Causwell’s in the online contest sponsored by Thrilllist.com
A massive social media campaign is credited for helping push Neon Pig over the top, as well as the unique taste of the Smash Burger.

“We just applaud our community for stepping up and showing out for us and not only our community, but all of our friends and family from all across the nation that voted, it truly was a village effort. It takes a village and we got one, it was just fabulous,” said Trish McCluney, co-owner of the Neon Pig Cafe.

The Neon Pig will host a victory party soon, and all proceeds will go to charity.
