NMisc Official Competitive Eating/Food Challenge Thread

Do you even eat?

Time to see who's on that "I can't eat enough" and who's really apart of Team Never Full.

Thread is dedicated to eating challenges and/or competitive eating. Personally, I have never done any eating challenges but my stomach is like a black hole. I'm interesting in finding some challenges and documenting them, and I thought the NMisc would like to join me.

I know there are some big eaters in this section, lets see who will rise up, man up, shut up and put down some food.

If you're unaware of what it's about, here are some clips of my heros.

Man Vs. Food.

Eating begins at 5:00.

I need to start looking for challenges in my area. Will be updating with vids/pics of proof of said black hole stomach.


Who's in?

I'm in. Man vs. Food is awesome.

Unfortunately I doubt there are any food competitions near my area...

In. I was just telling my wife I wanted to do one. Only one I know about in tally is this 6lb pork sandwich. Not sure I can handle it. Like 3lbs pork 1lb bun and 2lbs sides like coleslaw.

I hate the host of man v food. He annoys me. Great show though

Yeah, they are hard to find. I only know of one for sure in my area, and it's pretty weak. I want a challenge.

That sounds like an intense one. Way harder than some that I've seen. I still think it's doable. Do it bro and take some pics and vids. I love me some pork.

Very tempted. But I want to try an easier one first. You gotta pay like 35 bucks up front and get it back if eat it in under 30 I think.

I'm totally in on this. Recently I've really gotten into the concept of competitive eating. Unfortunately, coming from a small community, I had no organized competitive eating competitions or challenges available to me, and so friends and I went out of our way to make our own. Recently, however, I attempted my first ever challenge at a restaurant, and it was a blast.

Foods I've tackled so far:
[list][*]67 breaded wings at a university wingding. This was mainly just an eating-to-capacity deal. Unfortunately, I had already downed a plate of fries and a tall glass of juice before I was informed of the challenge. In total, probably took in ~7500 kcals.
[*]An 18" meat lovers' pizza. This was a head-to-head against a friend of mine. I took my time and finished in 55 minutes, no sweat. Had a cookie and ice cream afterwards. He crapped out after five and a half slices and two hours of struggling. ~6000 kcals.
[*]24 Jumbo Eggs. Hard-boiled. Finished the eggs in about 25 minutes. ~2700 kcals and room to spare in the stomach. Ran out of eggs.
[*][url=http://www.worksburger.com/][B]The Works'[/B][/url] [B]Triple Overtime Challenge[/B] (since discontinued). Three one-pound burgers covered in cheese, bacon, and barbecue sauce. All three burgers needed to be finished in under 20 minutes. I started off at a leisurely pace, hoping to enjoy the burgers. Half-way through I realized I was running out of time and was like, "Screw this." I pulled the meat out from in between my buns, swallowed it whole, and then soaked the buns in water to help them go down. Finished in 19 minutes and 42 seconds. First time feeling like I was actually in a competitive eating scenario. Feelsgoodman.jpg. ~6000 kcals, plus a milkshake afterwards to bring it to ~7000 kcals.[/list]
Challenges in the near future:
[list][*]University wingding. Will be attempting to eat 82+ breaded wings, which is the university's record. Will not fail. ~8000 kcals.
[*][url=http://www.dangerousdansdiner.com][B]Dangerous Dan's[/B][/url][B] Collosal Colon Clogger Combo[/B]. "24oz burger served with a quarter pound of cheese, a quarter pound of bacon, and 2 fried eggs. Also comes with a large shake and a small poutine." That's 1.5 lbs of beef, for anyone who doesn't work in ounces. Also, from what I've been told, the poutine is anything but small. I will also be ordering the "Royale" version, which comes with a deep-fried Mars bar as a desert. I've calculated that the meal should have ~5500-6000 kcals, but I would call that a conservative estimate.

[img]http://i.imgur.com/8XtXV.jpg[/img][/list]
I realize most of this is very lightweight by competitive eating standards, but I'm working on it. If anyone on the boards ever wants to do a collaborative challenge, I'm down!

On phone so I can't copy/paste, but 50 oz burger + fries in 25 minutes. Think I'm gonna try it tomorrow. Hit up a bunch of deadlifts before.

Oh hell yeah.

Nice stuff broseph. 82+ breaded wings will be epic. Keep us updated on that!

Same goes for me. If anyone makes their way into the New Orleans area and wants to kill a collaborative eating comp, I'm down for sure.

Hell. Yes.

Keep us updated on that one for sure. Do some heavy ass squats and deads before you go.

I've been tempted to try the challenge at [url=http://meltbarandgrilled.com/melt-challenge/]Melt Bar & Grill[/url]. Adam Richmond (who I don't really care for either) was here and filmed an episode of MvF there. Also, our very own FuriousPete has been there and completed the challenge.

Here is the description (if you're too lazy to go to the website):

[i]"Our monster grilled cheese featuring 13 different cheeses, 3 slices of grilled bread and a pile of hand-cut fries & slaw. Over 5 lbs. of food! Finish it all without any help or trips to the bathroom and you will be awarded a Melt t-shirt or Melt Pint Glass, a $10 gift card and we’ll immortalize you in our online Melt Challenge Hall of Fame."[/i]

edit: I was flipping through the photos of the people who have completed the challenge on Melt's site and found Pete's picture.

Very nice. Depending on the amount of fries, definitely doable. My recommendation: go for the meat by itself first, then power through any remaining carbs with the help of some water. It'll be easier to push through the meat sweats if the meat is the only thing in your stomach.

Too bad there is [b]no[/b] challenges around here. Just a steak challenge that is 45ounces I think. lol.

In. I just gotta find a contest near me
Possibly this: [url]http://www.clintonstationdiner.com/zeus.htm[/url] but I'm not sure which size to do. I also really want to do a steak challenge.

The 50-pound burger is the only one that should give anyone trouble. That's 10 lbs per person in three hours, which seems to set you up for failure. I would imagine that few people can knock down 10 lbs of food in a sitting.

I'm 1-0 so far. ;)

@Janus it is one pound of fries + the 50 oz burger with toppings and such. I was planning on fries last. Someone mentioned hot sauce, any suggestions?

I'm sure there's others...

I wasn't even trying to set a time bench mark, I just ate like I always eat - Fast. It really wasn't hard, I even had a large Sonic Pumpkin Pie Shake for dessert afterwards.

Bob, 3lb peanut butter & bacon/cheddar burger…. that is legit!

Chad I'm in Gulf Shores right now. What you got?

[QUOTE=psychodiver9;759630973]Chad I'm in Gulf Shores right now. What you got?[/QUOTE]

Not too far away man. I'm sure I could find a place between us with a competition, but with school I don't have much travel time.

He negged me and left, "half of your posts reference '*******s'" in my CP.

Apparently that must be offensive to him and he got all butthurt and negged me. Too bad 90% of everyone especially in the NMisc use that word.

Bmarchio, don't be such a *******.

[QUOTE=PlasticJanus;759592773]That all looks delicious. Congrats on the success! Which of the challenges was your favourite?[/QUOTE]

PB Burger hands down... Just don't tell my trainer I did that at 14 weeks out ;)

Gyro was the worst. Gyro/Lamb meat is very fatty/greasy literally after 2lbs it was choking it down to finish. Thing was sitting on 6 pita's that was an XL pizza trey (24" i think)

[QUOTE=Bmarchio;759612173]Bob, 3lb peanut butter & bacon/cheddar burger…. that is legit![/QUOTE]

Must spread...

OP is a *******

Seriously, everyone is on spread. It makes no sense.

Anyways, I'd do some kind of eating thing but I always end up feeling like such crap that it makes me regret it, so I hardly ever eat a lot. The most I've ever ate was 60 wings. I ended up leaving because they took too long to bring me my order of wings. I don't think that's necessarily impressive since wings don't really have all that much meat on them.

@Bob: Solid work, dude. Mad jelly.

Oh, by the way, if you claiming to do something then: pics or it didn't happen. ;)

Stop being a ******* and find us an eating comp

Not a formal restaurant challenge, but my buddies said I couldn't do it.

Two Burritos from Qdoba:

[B][U]50 oz Burger Challenge[/U][/B]
50 oz meat + buns + cheese + lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and pickles.
1 pound of fries
Ungodly amount of grease.

Before:

After:
[img]http://forum.bodybuilding.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3756513&d=1317581649[/img]

Finished in 22 minutes. The burger wasn't bad... took 4 minutes to finish off the meat. The fries were the hardest, they seemed neverending. Finished off the buns + toppings last.

For dessert, 1 pound of pb and chocolate frozen yogurt with PB cups, oreos, and bits of milk chocolate

[img]http://forum.bodybuilding.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3756523&d=1317581709[/img]

Nap time!

In on this. I'm gonna peak around some nearby areas to see if I can find something I'd be interested in doing.

On spread but nicely done

Nice work, dude. I think the most impressive part is that you ate a 1lb dessert after that. That all comes out to a little bit over 5lbs.
