Man vs Food

The programme is seriously drool worthy.

The most amazing thing I saw on it was when he brought Joey Chestnut in to eat a mega burrito. This thing was massive and he destroyed it in under 3 minutes :eek:

Joey Chestnut isn't even fat. Amazing how he can do it. I find being able to eat like that quite impressive. It goes way beyond greedy. It's a feat in itself.

Yeah it was crazy how fast he was able to eat that burrito. He didnt even look like he was suffering for it afterwards. I would probably need like 3 hours to eat something that big :eek:

I reckon he has tiny lungs and a minute spleen. His stomach probably covers most of his left ribcage.

Found a reverse engineered recipe for the habanero fritters, so want to give this a try.

1 c. sifted flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
2 eggs
1/2 c. milk
1 tbsp. melted butter
1/4 c. sugar
2 tbsps. ground black pepper
1/4c Garlic powder
1 Tbs cumin
1 onion
30 fresh habaneros 5lbs
2 cups mozzarella
1/2 cup cheddar

Should make 15 ice cream scoops.

Can't find the habanero salsa though, which contains another 30 chilies.

I just need to find fresh Habaneros somewhere!

I reckon Blair's Habanero salsa should do the trick as a decent substitute.

This show is just crazy. some of the things that he eats are just crazy. i do like watching him trying to eat the crazily spicy things.

i would love to go to some of these restaurants to try some of them. but think it might scar my mouth for life

Devon do a 500g bag or smaller ones. For both fritters and salsa you need 10lbs(545g), equally split so 5lbs in the fritters.

Non in stock ATM but says back soon, probably just waiting for them to ripen.

Excellent. Might do that when they're back in.

Ooooooooooh, they also sell Chocolate Habaneros too! Delish.

I take it you mean 1lb (454g) rather than 10lb?

Posted in wrong thread - not sure how.

Hmm... very off-topic or posted in the wrong thread Meridian?

I think i must, check a man vs fooded video to confirm, he says how many lbs in the whole thing.

Glaucus · 26 Jun 2011 at 22:52

Nope 10lbs per batch, but I don't know how much a batch does.

People seem to think 2 chilies per fritter and you do 5 fritters in the challenge and same quantity in the sauce, so roughly 10 chilies in that as well.
