[HAMR] A meal for Steve?

There must be one of these pubs on one his routes.

The Brinkburn in Darlo does it. Someone told me that it's free if you finish it, but that appears not to be the case.

I see they do a 32 ounce steak challenge too. Hmm...

Before I gave up eating meat there was a restaurant in Harrogate called The Cattleman's Association. I group of us from work decided to takle their 72 ounce steak eating challenge. To my eternal shame I was the only one who successfully completed it.

I do not recommend it.

Oh, and they also did a 32 ounce burger challenge too. I don't think the Flaming Grill Pubs chain are trying hard enough.

As I've said before, all of these pale in comparison with the Kids Breakfast at Jesters' Diner in Great Yarmouth.

Some people have asked why we don't serve tea or coffee with the breakfast. But these drinks contain caffeine which is very bad for you so we chose not to include them in the deal.

It is still there, as is the steak challenge!

Woman takes 3 mins to polish off 72 oz steak. That can't be good for you. Gulp.

(It costs £50 if you you can't eat it all.)

Competitive eaters have to be thin to win. They need low visceral fat to allow their organs to move out the way as their stomachs expand. Never bet on the fat person at high level competitive eating competitions.

How to eat 7500 kCalories in 30 minutes without busting a gut.

4 x 250g blocks of butter.

Five slices of bread brings it up to 8000 kCalories.

The equivalent volume of two pints of beer and two bags of crisps.

Posting here instead of 'Tarzan' thread.


Within a short bike ride from where I live, there is Big John’s Pizza and takeaway.

I sometimes go on my Raleigh 20. I order a 20” pizza.

What a coincidence !!  ;D

This must be some variation of an Eddington number, the number of times in a year, you've ordered a pizza bigger than the diameter of wheels of the bike you are cycling at time.

I think regular brompton riders should have higher numbers.

The pizza place wouldn't happen to be Erdington would it?

I had a 14oz steak after Blacksheep's 200k earlier in the month. That seemed quite big to me.
