60oz Steak challenge.

uksoldierboy · 15 Oct 2013 at 13:58

Hi guys,

Tomorrow me and mrs are going out for a meal to celebrate my birthday, to local place that happens to do a few challenges...

One of which is a 60z steak, which i have selected to try.

This will be my first challenge i've ever attempted and was just looking for some advice on how best to tackle this meat mountain.

Over the course of the last few weeks i've seen a few brave souls try to beat it and fail, the meal comes with a huge pile of chips too (1 pound i believe) which i think will be the hardest part..

I'd like to think i can put plenty of food away, back in my army days i don't think it would cause me any grief at all, but a much less intense life after has no doubt lowered my eating capacity.

Anyone ever tried anything similar and got any advice?

Thanks

Yeah wont be getting any birthday sex, not afterwards anyway. You'll be in pain and hating life.
I tried a 4lb burger and well failed miserably(i was miserable for hours afterwards). i tried the eat super fast and fall the body, but didn't work.
Just go for it have fun and make sure you can get home to the sofa in as least hassle as possible.
Drink as little as possible, just enough to keep saliva up.
Oh and get food network channel on and start watching man vs food. They have a few episodes on every night from 3:30pm today.

whats the name of the place your going?

I'd rather do a challenge with a pole dancer.

Is there a reward or penalty for this challenge like getting your meal free if manage to eat it in an hour without being sick?

There appears to be no time limit Cosimo, but it's free if you eat the lot.

This will be you:

Good luck with it.

Expect a sleepless night afterwards. Have lots of big roll on standby!

Grills 60 oz steak from the fb page. Enjoy :O

uksoldierboy · 15 Oct 2013 at 14:11

Haha,

I did watch that the other day, looks very tough to beat!

No worries if i can't do it, i certainly won't be making myself ill over it.

Take your wallet, since you probably wont win the challenge if it's your first.

Gilly · 15 Oct 2013 at 14:14

Do you have to eat the (what looks like) mushrooms?

I think I'd manage the steak (with meat sweats) and struggle through the chips, but there's no way I'm eating fungus.

Yeah my wallet will definitely be tagging along, i did try one in Canada a few years back (only 40oz) and managed that alight from what i remember.

I'm not really sure Gilly TBH,

I assume that everything has to be eaten, but could be wrong.

I think i'll do the steak, but the chips, mushrooms will hurt.

Live about 20 minutes away, been several times. You should try the 108oz burger.

Friend tried the mixed grill challenge last time we was down there, poor bugger hates mushrooms so they made him swap out for 3 extra sausage and 6 eggs.

swiftmetal · 15 Oct 2013 at 14:19

only drink water and only little bit. The obvious dont eat a lot on the day. Only eat what you need. Pre cut the meat and just go for it as fast as you can and be prepaired for the food wall. If you go fast you have around 20 minutes to eat it before you start to feel really full.

Ah good to have someone local with knowledge of the place cheers Kai.

I took one look at the burger one and decided it's not for me :eek:

Has anyone ever done it?

No, the idea is if someone completes the challenge they increase the size of the burger and they get to name the next burger. Last challenge was complete by a very thin young women "apparently" Last burger was 96oz in size.

48oz is enough for me! then I hit the food coma, meat sweat as the burger goes stodgy as the cheese get's cold.
