IIRC, it was some skinny Asian babe who used to win all those Nathan‘s hotdog eating contests

Two years ago I was at the Big Tex steakhouse in Amarillo. Where you if you eat a 72 ounce steak in less than an hour it’s free. It’s amazing how many people have done it. Little old ladies, kids, skinny people, etc. I’d like to see this chick try that.

I have to tell the story about my experience at the Big Tex steakhouse.

When my wife and I were there some big ol’ boys from Australia came in. They were going to try for the free 72 ounce steak. One of the biggest boys, who we thought could do it, went to town.

Knives and forks? Pshaw. He coolly and casually picked up that steak and started in on it. Not fast and furiously mind you, but deliberately and cautiously. Knowing that he must pace himself.

Did he do it? Did he finish that 72 ounce steak in less than an hour?

No he did not. But he gave it his best shot.

They have, on the Big Tex website somewhere, a list of all the people who’ve finished the meal in an hour.

There was one guy, a pro wrassler, who actually ate two in one hour.

I really like the Big Texan. I was there once when some guy tried the challenge. It was obvious 20 minutes in he wasn’t going to make it and sure enough they brought out the take away containers.

Other than the occasional entertainment the food is great. If you have a strong stomach look up videos of Molly Schuler eating three of the steaks in 20 or so minutes.

I used to watch Man vs Food when Adam Richman was the host. This place was one of his challenges. He won the challenge. He mentioned several others who have won the challenge in the past, including a small-framed 60ish YO woman.
