[Music]
number seven the 15 dozen oyster
challenge
new orleans may be known as the big easy
but there's nothing easy about getting
into the 15 dozen club
this restaurant's name belies its
offerings the oyster house
actually provides shelter for a variety
of seafood founded in 1910
the acme oyster house has a half dozen
locations sprawled across multiple
states
the contest just kind of started
you know people have been coming eating
oysters at me for a long time
it just kind of caught our attention uh
with this fella in 1988 came in and sat
down and ate 16 dozen
each has its own chapter of the club
though the rules to join are the same
a person has to eat 180 oysters in 60
minutes
these delectable mollusk morsels are
small but that math
sure does add up fast but there's no
more time for shucking around
because the battle of man vs mollusk is
about to begin
this challenge was also featured on men
versus food
richmond won this round and some diners
have actually
exceeded 15 dozen at the acme location
in the french quarter
one hungry seafood aficionado downed 44
dozen
or a mind-blowing 528 oysters
number six the kodiak arrest challenge
humpby's great alaskan ale house in
anchorage delivers a seven-course feast
as formidable as
any giant bear or towering mountain peak
four pounds of alaskan king crab seven
crab nuggets
and 14 inches of reindeer sausage
provide plenty of protein
while an assortment of side dishes a
wild berry crisp
and a big bowl of ice cream add even
more heft the massive meal must be
completed in an hour or less
if one wants to join the ale house's
hall of fame and
claim a free t-shirt proudly declaring
that its wearer got crabs at humpies
richmond from man vs food was the first
person to conquer this edible obstacle
doing the deed in only 47 minutes once
again proving himself
a true master of mastication bite by
bite
i fight the kodiak arrest down to the
last spoonful
number five the nine pounder bgr the
burger joint is a multi-state restaurant
chain that minces meat
not words its biggest burger is the nine
pounder
but this sandwich is even larger than
its name implies
a massive patty of ground beef is just
the beginning
with it also including 60 slices of
cheese
10 pickles 8 onions 8 tomatoes
and several cups of mojo sauce all said
and done that baby probably weighs 20-25
pounds
the brioche bun is baked in a 20-inch
deep-dish pizza pan
if you can scarf down this super-sized
whopper in one sitting
the restaurant gives it to you gratis if
not
be prepared to stomach the bill you
can't share it you can it's for one
person now you can order it and share it
you just have to give them 24 hours
notice
for a more manageable meal there's
always the eighth wonder
a two-pound burger available at watson
soda fountain and cafe
in orange california number four the
inferno bowl challenge
you guys going in for the soup yeah
we're going in for the soup
fire oh no
this is that's not a good sign four
pounds of soup
filled with noodles chicken carrots napa
cabbage
broth and a dozen of the planet's
hottest peppers a
30 minute time frame to slurp it all
down with a 350
purse waiting for the winner at natali's
thai mex cuisine in st
petersburg florida you can become a
fire-breathing legend
however statistically you're a lot more
likely to end up puking stomach acid
on january 27 2021 the restaurant
reported that of the 589 folks who had
dared to lock horns with the lava-like
stew
only six had successfully finished it
vomiting and
even other bodily evacuations are not
uncommon reactions
this fiery feat is not for the faint of
heart or
belly they should implement this as
capital punishment
imagine how this will deter crime look
at the amount of oil that's off top of
that all right
number three the chupacabra challenge
we're back in the lone star state
for another monstrous meat eating
contest the tap room pub
grub in san marcos texas offers diners a
tempting test of their guttural grit
this flesh-eating marathon gives
competitors 45 minutes to polish off a
full rack of ribs two dozen nuclear hot
wings and a burger
plus heaping baskets of fries and onion
rings
it's named after the mythical chupacabra
a creature rumored to kill
and drain the blood from livestock
animals
for vanquishing this formidable array of
savory snacks
champions don't have to pay for their
meal and get a chupacabra challenge
t-shirt
and that ain't no bull number two the
bomb
challenge this five pound mass of flesh
is a crowd
favorite at paddy long's a chicago bar
and restaurant
paddy long's is definitely a bacon
lover's paradise
that's baconlicious baby making one
involves
many steps the first of which is
creating a thick bacon weave
next an even thicker layer of beef pork
sausage and crispy pepper bacon is piled
on
after getting dusted in a dry rub and
smothering it in beer barbecue sauce
it's rolled up like a giant burrito
coated in brown sugar and roasted for
four
hours this is the moment of truth so you
want to get your hands under here like
this
flip it hope the weave doesn't fall
apart
keep rolling keep rolling tuck in the
ends
and voila it's about football size
that's what we like
normally serving six to eight brave
gluttons can test their gastrointestinal
fortitude by trying to eat the whole hog
plus a pound of fries in 45 minutes or
less
winners get the meal for free receive a
t-shirt and
are immortalized on the bar's wall
there's a lot going on in there
this is not some gimmick ma'am this is
real deal flavor right here

number one the fat food challenge you
know the saying that less is more
but we don't believe in that the big fat
ugly from the fat sandwich company

hoagie

our big winner does it get served in the
foil like that when you oh when i do the
challenge
fat cells deli is a los angeles landmark
and the big fat fatty is a big part of
the reason why
