Have any of you guys ever watched this show on the Travel Channel? It's great. The host, Adam Richman travels to food joints that are know for serving ridiculously sized meals and he tries to finish meals that not many people have.
Recently I have seen the guy try and finish a 6lb burrito ( Las Vegas ), a 12 egg omelette filled with chilli, sour cream and hash browns on the side ( Seattle ). It's a fun show to watch. |

The guy has a great sense of humour to, and I love the " post-fight " interviews afterwards. He can put away some serious food. |

#7 Posted: 7/26/2010 11:09:49 PM this show is incredible!
Ive actually been to a few of the restaurants where he did those challenges. They were incredible this one pizza joint in CT. Frank Pepes, and this hamburger joint that steams there burgers with cheese in the middle.
But that large burrito he ate and all those oysters, and the steaks were insane! |

Didn't do it to be a smart behind, just recalled previously posting in a MVF thread so thought you might find it interesting. All I had to do was look under my posts

OK sweet. I had actually been waiting to post about this show for a few weeks thinking that someone might beat me to it in the meantime. Didn't know that I was a year behind the times. I guess that's what you get for living in the jungle.

I think that was the San Antonio episode where he had to eat the " 4 Horsemen " hamburger with 4 different types of chilis on it, including a " ghost chili " that is 125 times hotter than a Jalopeno. I saw it last week. He took one bite and was fucked. |

Is that on the cooking channel? Or is it a nickname your parents have for you in regards to your brain power and lack thereof? |

#21 Posted: 3/7/2011 1:45:12 PM I just watched this guy try and split an 11 pound pizza with a buddy
Scary part is, he would have finished his half, 5 1/2 pounds if his buddy didn't puke first.
i am completely addicted to this show. its on every night for an hour on OLN |

I could watch this right after heating a 3 course meal and still be hungry.
Seems like Philly has some kick behind sandwhiches and hot wings. Feels like every other episode is filmed in Philly |
