You answered my question and confirmed my suspicions early on... Im a chef, so i know some realy shady tricks kitchens pull.. Its absolutely clear to me, this restaurant loaded up that thing with as much over cooked rice (contains more water/ heavier) and absurd amounts of salt, just so you'd be unable to beat the challenge... Ill take the name if that restaurant down and be sure to tell everyone I know NOT to eat there.. Cheers brother 😎🤘
Yup, this restaurant definitely did all of those shady things intentionally to try and stop him from completing the challenge. On top of all that, the menu said he would also get a t-shirt, yet he said they apparently stopped doing that so he didn't even get that!! That's BS! If they stopped doing it, then they need to remove it from the menu!! That's false advertising and they owe him a t-shirt!
I happened upon this channel a week or so ago. Never did I ever think that I, a 52 year old grandma, would be so wrapped up in a competitive eating channel. And here I am! I absolutely love your videos. I find your personality fantastic, very refreshing. Back to binging watching. Best wishes to all.
@@lisakay8798 That's fairly young when you consider most adults haven't even found the "one" by 25. I always consider a grandma to be a senior citizen, so 65 plus lol
I've seen a lot of Joel's challenges. He always praises every restaurant on how good the food is no matter what. He always tried to make the restaurant look better than it is so for him to say the food is basically crap means they must have had to crazy with the seasoning
I was thinking the same exact thing. And also no meat ???? Who makes a burrito without ground beef or some other kind of protein?? They completely sabotaged him !!!
I don't understand why the restaurant would do that to you,do they not realise you actually tell the whole Internet how good or bad it is,can't see many people going there after the horrendous meal you had,well done Joel.x
@@stephenloague9140yeah but isn´t it all about the succes of the Restaurant in the end? About making money, guys like Joel can bring a huge increase in clients in the long run. Which is better even if your challenge is eventualy beaten.
Shame on the owners for trying to make it fail! Because Joel tolerates salt more than anyone I’ve watched! Shame on them! Be fair because it causes viewers to say nope not going there now !!!
I have been watching your videos for a few years & this was the first time I saw you struggle. Great job Joel & I totally think they sabataged you. Keep eating.
Ever get something salty with sour cream as a side mix it in, will dampen the salt alot, even tho it's not your jam in flavor probably help a ton! Cheers
YES especially since I couldn’t eat more than a mouthful of “Texas BBQ” in Dallas (Terry Blacks) because it was so salty- and JOEL eats it like its nothing. This must have been INCREDIBLY salty!!!!!!!🧂🧂🧂👀
@@Kennyporterstoppedmyfight joel literally said it he almost choked on this challenge cuz of that amount of salt they did put in it, did u watch the video or u dont understand English?
JOEL thank you for being so darn honest and EXPOSING when a restaurant makes a challenge inedible I absolutely would have complained if you had pointed it out to a waitress maybe they could have changed it??
I know Joel would never say this but whomever cooked this burrito did so trying to get you to fail. I think they did the seasoning on purpose making it really inedible. I hope it didn't make you sick Joel and another great job by you for finishing when I do believe the cooks or the restaurant made it an unfair challenge...
Thank you for qualifying that this was your second challenge of the day. Bet that won’t happen again, biting off more than you can chew is a healthy thing to do. Knowing your limit and sticking with it is always the safe thing to do.
You know how terrible the food must be if Joel isn't making it sound appetizing. The restaurant blew it big time by sabotaging his food. Clearly by the sound of the hyenas laughing in the background, the food is probably only fit for wild animals.
Lol you had me going I thought you actually were going to lose thank God you finished I've never seen u lose your freaking awesome when you doing those challenges I feel like my brother is out there lol I be rooting for u to pull through haha 😂 I love it great job man ❤
I think some of these restaurants intentionally make challenges over the weight and over seasoned to set the person up for failure. Kudos to you Joel, it must have been really salty if you said it was salty, I've seen you eat a handful of salt on BBQ challenges
I felt so bad for Joel. He is always so vocal about how good the food tastes and I have watched him devour Texas Barbeque several times the last days (older videos) and it was sooo tasty. So for him to say it was physically hard to eat made me feel for him. 🙁
Joel, I've never seen you struggle with such a thing as a 6 pound burrito! I feel you were indeed set up but as usual you were too nice to call them on it. God loves ya and so do we! ❤
As I am watching this, at about 17 minutes in, I feel like hurling just watching you struggle. Your organs aren't just moving out of the way of your stomach, your organs are moving to another state. You are truly the king of food challenges!
I feel that just within the first few bites of it, you could already see the disappointment/surprise in Joel's face... Your a beast for going through with this one, didn't look pleasant at all They made it that way on purpose to prevent you from finishing im sure
I’ve seen hundreds of your videos and I don’t think I’ve ever seen you more uncomfortable (besides a couple of spicy ones) at the end of a challenge. Way to go for completing and keeping it down! 👏👏💪🙌
I think they knew exactly who you were coming into the challenge and they did what they could to mess that burrito up so they didn't lose $40. The jokes on them though they could have made thousands of dollars more from your fans based on your recommendations.
There's another video where the head Chef Spent around 800 bucks to make his visit a pleasant one (even going out of their way to put up a 500$ wager as well as offering dessert), and that video has over 3.5 million views. So yeah great ROI in terms of Advertising. EXACT opposite of this restro.
It shows the quality of the food when Joel struggles with something that big. But let it be less salty, more meat, and better cooked rice. He'd be smiling at the end. 😂
Joe thx for the video. Upon watching you, i almost thought you wouldn't be able to complete the challenge. I'm glad you did. You are good. Two challenges in one day. I can't even do one. Congratulations
Wow I am so impressed by you! What a hard challenge and you kept going despite the “salt and rice sabotage “ You are incredibly determined and I admire that in any person and the fact you stay so polite and humble! Congratulations sir!
I love that all these CZcams pro eaters get so psyched when they get a free T-shirt. They’re all very wholesome folks. Thanks for the entertainment Joel!
Yeaaah, they had it out for you, by adding all that salt and clumps of rice. They tried to shut you down, but what they don't know is you're seriously a force to be reckoned with. You're the best to have ever done it. You keep showing them over and over. Maybe they'll finally believe you one day. ❤💯💪🏽🙌🏽
Damn Joel, this was tough to watch! We know it's getting real when you ask for the ice and the nose starts going lol! I'm pretty sure I speak for all of us fans that we care about your health so we would not have been disappointed if you called it. Honestly, you didn't even seem excited for this challenge in the first place 🤣 But damn, you powered through like you always do!! Amazing job bro!
Love the honesty ! I have watched Joel using so much salt on those beef briskets he loves so much So for him to say « too much salt », damn !!!!! Good job Joel ! You’re the best ! So respectful, as always !
Joel, I sincerely feel for you. I cannot get pass the fact that they might have spiked this challenge for you. Them knowing that you would come in and kick ass, they didn't want that, but, you proved them wrong. 💋
Love you Joel, way to stay positive. Sometimes I have trouble eating myself, I put on one of your videos and it helps. I'm not eating alone anymore, and I feel like I've got to finish or I'll let you down. You may not know it brother but you are therapeutic and I couldn't be more greatful.
🌮🌯 Next time, mix in a little sour cream here and there as you go instead of eating it all by itself at the end when you already feel like you're gonna hurl. Personally, I love the stuff, especially on Mexican. 😀 Congrats on the win!
As I’m watching this video I’m having a bowl of cereal and I couldn’t be happier. Usually I’m craving what you’re eating but not today. Kudos to you 👍🏽
Excellent job Joel! I can only recall one challenge (the raw hamburger meat from years ago) that was that tough for you...but this one takes the cake. Much Love and Props Bro!
I think this is the first video I seen Joel not make a face like it’s the greatest food he has ever tasted. Joel you should start being more honest if the food taste nasty just call them out on it. Honesty is the best policy!
This is the first time that i actually thought you were gonna lose a challenge. I could see it in your face, that you just wanted that challenge to be over with.
!!!!!!!!!!! Brother, I watch most all your videos and I have never seen you NOT give at least one compliment about the food, although you did say the coke made it better! You gutted thru it...GREAT job!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great Vid as usual bro - the look on your face, lol, Close eyes and wash down :))) Rice on side: Don't mind some spiced rice (with chopped bell peppers) & fries on the side. If rice in Burrito - light touch - Meat: Definitely a chilli beef!, Chilli con carne style works for me, chilli, paprika, cumin (don't mind some beans and couscous), and some grated cheese . Must have Salsa, some lettuce, and onion, mint, lemon salad (in the Burrito). Side sauce of Chilli/Salsa, and perhaps a garlic/mayo sauce. That said, Greek Style Gyros/Souvlaki is awesome also (can have fries & rice inside).
Hi Joel, my name is Asha. Watching you suffering that burrito, I felt very sorry for you. Next time if u feel a challenge isn't right, don't do it. Lots of love Asha n Reagan from Trenancemanor Phoenix Durban South Africa ❤😊
That's the Biggest Burrito I've seen in my entire life !!! That's a breakfast, lunch and dinner portion all put together. I know this one's going to be difficult !
Oh man, with how you described the globby rice, salt and lack of protein.. I would have stopped right there.. It's almost like they were trying to sabotage you but you are such a trooper 👍👍
I’ve never seen Joel not enjoy a meal before… use the sour cream throughout to minimize the salt flavor at least! I feel so sad for him, and for me continuing to watch, but I have to know how it ends 😂
The struggle was real. When Joel broke out the ice and did not "compliment" the chef when he burped, then you know he was up against the wall. Carnitas in a verde sauce is my favorite burrito filling. Congrats
My ideal burrito is lettuce, tomato, shredded cheese, rice, refried beans, and the best beef they have in house. Be it steak, carne asada, ground beef, etc.. Drowned in chili con queso or the red sauce from enchiladas.
You did two challenges in one day?!? That's amazing!! This burrito was massive but you did an awesome job completing it, you are truly a champion at what you do!! On to the next one ❤
You ever think they purposely make the stuff uneatable so he would fail? I find it hard to believe that they would still be in business and suck that much.
Some (very few) Restaurants might "cheat/or make it harder on purpose" , but gladly most of them happily take guys like Joel as it would only make your Restaurant get more clients after their visit.
Well I have recently developed gastroparesis so I can only eat enough food about the size of my hand before I have to wait a couple of hours to eat more so I really enjoy your videos. Thank you
Joel, that one was painful to watch. Wow, I honestly think that some restaurants would actually sabotage your chance by adding extra food or making it way too salty just so they don't have to give you a free meal. Good job Joel you beat it anyways lol!!!!
You need to start carrying a portable scale to weigh the challenges that you know that they oversize. It’s not fair when they do that either intentionally or accidentally. This way there will be no doubt. And you can be assured of a fair challenge.
I hope you'll be alright. You know that too much salt is extremely unhealthy. Personally, I would have had to call the challenge off and get up from the table. I cannot consume loads of salt. It causes my heart to race and I feel like I'll black out. Thanks for being upfront and honest about the quality of the food. A blessed 2024 to you and yours. Take care of yourself.
You can tell there was probably a lot of salt because the intro I think was filmed after the challenge. His face was so puffy. That happens to me when I have to much sodium 🫨 and I also I love salt. But there is nothing worse than terrible rice
Most people can’t stomach 3 swallows of salt water. Joel is a machine. Anaphylaxis clearly settling in. Gave an out letting us know it was a second challenge of the day. Finished it anyway. What the heck was with the salt loving hyenas in the background? You were gracious in suffering and gave us no indication how to avoid this place. You’re a class act Joel. Love your vids.
That was insane. Having that much salt doused into your meal for a challenge could easily been a lawsuit to happen. That would have caused you to go into cardiac arrest with that much salt. But I applaud your victory, although a dangerous one. I still applaud you for coming out the other end of it.
You did an amazing job on this challenge! I usually enjoy watching. However, the further you went the more I felt like I was going to be sick myself or cry. I felt so bad for you.
Thanks to Keeps for sponsoring this video! Head to keeps.com/joelhansen to get a special offer.
HONESTLY, DOES RICE BELONG IN A BURRITO :O?
Damn
Yes but not a gelatinous clump of rice lol 😅 and as for ratio I go like 20 percent rice, that's too much man ashame it was too salty as well
DAMN JOEL U DID THAT U PUSHED PASSED IT EVEN THO IT WASN'T EASY BUT I'M PROUD OF YOU FOR COMPLETING THIS CHALLENGE 😊
Was that almost a reversal ?
Seafood filling for sure.
Dumping a pound of salt in the food is a great way to get a competitive eater to quit. Very unimpressed with that restaurant. You Rock Joel, Always.
Not to mention the loud people in the background.
If I felt that the restaurant had adulterated the food I would just pay them and leave.
They're not worth your time.
Definitely a bush league move
@@spikefivefivefive If I thought they made it inedible on purpose, I wouldn't have paid.
You are really a nice guy. I. could say Charge Me the $40.00 , but Iam not eating this Huge Burro😅
You answered my question and confirmed my suspicions early on...
Im a chef, so i know some realy shady tricks kitchens pull..

Cheers brother 😎🤘
I'll do the same...
Gordon Ramsay would have a field day with those chefs at that restaurant lol
And skimping on the shrimp? Like cmon bro
As a chef of ten years, I second all of that. This was shady af
They are so Sneaky.......I don't like that at all just be honest
Yup, this restaurant definitely did all of those shady things intentionally to try and stop him from completing the challenge.

Really see true colors in a place where they do their challenges with love vs this..respect to you brother for doin it no matter what
Not only was it 50% bigger than the published size, they sabotaged it to make you fail. Kudos for rising to the challenge.
I seen Joel eat 10 lb of food. there is zero way this burrito was only 6 lb.
12 lbs would be 100% bigger. Even worse.
When Joel doesn’t say “compliments to the Chef” in the first couple bites, you already know…
😂. Yea
Lmfaooo truth!
He usually burps firstly though doesn't he,so would like to have seen if he'd have said compliments to the chef if he burped
Then he regretted for saying that.

Because he is not a soy boy

Sure you would have, big mouth! You're so tough...😂
I don't understand why the restaurant would do that to you,do they not realise you actually tell the whole Internet how good or bad it is,can't see many people going there after the horrendous meal you had,well done Joel.x

Place sounds like it’s a dump. HARD PASS!
they should have just advertised eat poop, and if u fail then pay 40 dollars.
Wow, its crazy you actually finished that! I think some of these restaurants try to “Joel-Proof” their challenges when they know its you coming.
Agreed. Joel is a great promoter for the restaurants he eats at, they don't get that he is great for marketing. That was tough to watch.
Joel or anyone, it's only been beaten 4 times for a reason. Must be very salty 😅

They obviously tried to make Joel fail this challenge but you did it once again. The struggle was real I’m sure
I don't know if the intentionally did it $40 is Not that much
Dont work so hard Joel you have plenty of of content get some rest brother we love you man. Happy New Year
Taking long breaks is all the more training to get back.
Ever get something salty with sour cream as a side mix it in, will dampen the salt alot, even tho it's not your jam in flavor probably help a ton! Cheers
Yep & he barely touched the sour cream until he ate it literally by by itself....bad move, joel
Joel not only are you a machine but you always carry yourself so kind and gentlemanly. I’m a big fan of yours.
Even when he’s scammed by a dumpy restaurant. True gentleman. Rarity these days.
If Joel says that its salty, it has to be insanely salty.
This is the man, who puts a bunch of salt on every Brisket bite he eats we're talking about 😅
No cap 😂
He told them he loved salt,never say that because they will give it to you😮
only way to get someone to drink so much that they cant finish challenge.

That said, Greek Style Gyros/Souvlaki is awesome also (can have fries & rice inside).
Sabotage, I tell you. They know who Joel is and don’t want him to finish it. 😡 Crooked bastards. 🤘😎
Hi Joel, my name is Asha. Watching you suffering that burrito, I felt very sorry for you. Next time if u feel a challenge isn't right, don't do it. Lots of love Asha n Reagan from Trenancemanor Phoenix Durban South Africa ❤😊
That's the Biggest Burrito I've seen in my entire life !!! That's a breakfast, lunch and dinner portion all put together. I know this one's going to be difficult !
Oh man, with how you described the globby rice, salt and lack of protein.. I would have stopped right there.. It's almost like they were trying to sabotage you but you are such a trooper 👍👍
I’ve never seen Joel not enjoy a meal before… use the sour cream throughout to minimize the salt flavor at least! I feel so sad for him, and for me continuing to watch, but I have to know how it ends 😂
That's the biggest struggle I've seen you have since I've been watching you.
Good job buddy 👏
It's the first time in a long time since I've seen Joel eat something that he not enjoying 😮
Once again, Joel, you never cease to amaze your fans. Absolutely incredible feat and you nailed it! Bravo, my friend. :)
That laugh in the background 😂 You all know the one I’m talking about 🥴🤣
Dude, that is the HARDEST I've seen you eat in your videos!!! Crazy challenge!!! Too bad they couldn't actually make a good burrito
The struggle was real. When Joel broke out the ice and did not "compliment" the chef when he burped, then you know he was up against the wall. Carnitas in a verde sauce is my favorite burrito filling. Congrats
My ideal burrito is lettuce, tomato, shredded cheese, rice, refried beans, and the best beef they have in house. Be it steak, carne asada, ground beef, etc.. Drowned in chili con queso or the red sauce from enchiladas.
You did two challenges in one day?!? That's amazing!! This burrito was massive but you did an awesome job completing it, you are truly a champion at what you do!! On to the next one ❤
You ever think they purposely make the stuff uneatable so he would fail? I find it hard to believe that they would still be in business and suck that much.
Some (very few) Restaurants might "cheat/or make it harder on purpose" , but gladly most of them happily take guys like Joel as it would only make your Restaurant get more clients after their visit.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Joel struggle this much in a challenge wow!
the fact that you had done another food challenge that day is amazing , what a legend
Extreme sportsmanlike behavior to Joel.
Killed it like always!
Well I have recently developed gastroparesis so I can only eat enough food about the size of my hand before I have to wait a couple of hours to eat more so I really enjoy your videos. Thank you
Oh gosh, that just sounded gross. I'm also a salt person, but, how awful that must of been. As always Joel, FANTASTIC JOB!!!
Joel cannot be stopped. Amazing job sir.
Joel, that one was painful to watch. Wow, I honestly think that some restaurants would actually sabotage your chance by adding extra food or making it way too salty just so they don't have to give you a free meal. Good job Joel you beat it anyways lol!!!!
You need to start carrying a portable scale to weigh the challenges that you know that they oversize. It’s not fair when they do that either intentionally or accidentally. This way there will be no doubt. And you can be assured of a fair challenge.
Agree
Scales are hard to buy, since drug dealers use them to weigh drugs
I hope you'll be alright. You know that too much salt is extremely unhealthy. Personally, I would have had to call the challenge off and get up from the table. I cannot consume loads of salt. It causes my heart to race and I feel like I'll black out. Thanks for being upfront and honest about the quality of the food.
A blessed 2024 to you and yours. Take care of yourself.
@15:42 yooo whos laughing like that??😂💀
You can tell there was probably a lot of salt because the intro I think was filmed after the challenge. His face was so puffy. That happens to me when I have to much sodium 🫨 and I also I love salt. But there is nothing worse than terrible rice
Ye it can be, first i thought he just woke up, but after it makes some sense 😅
I thought the same. Joel never looks puffy in any video no matter the time of day. They really set him up for failure.
I love salt also, but man my ankles swell up like balloons! But I eat a lot of beef jerky
@@jasonguessedit ahahaha
Most people can’t stomach 3 swallows of salt water. Joel is a machine. Anaphylaxis clearly settling in. Gave an out letting us know it was a second challenge of the day. Finished it anyway. What the heck was with the salt loving hyenas in the background? You were gracious in suffering and gave us no indication how to avoid this place. You’re a class act Joel. Love your vids.
Surprised Joel says he loves salt. He love it. Maybe this was too salty for him .
Oh my you did an amazing job 😢 anyone else would have called it a day. Well done Joel 🎉👏🏾👏🏾
Dude, that crazy laugh in the background is diabolical! When it comes to burritos, chile relleno burritos are ALWAYS BOMB!
I think the oversalting was deliberate. As for a burrito filling, I don't think I ever want a burrito again! You're the champ!😊😊
That was insane. Having that much salt doused into your meal for a challenge could easily been a lawsuit to happen. That would have caused you to go into cardiac arrest with that much salt. But I applaud your victory, although a dangerous one. I still applaud you for coming out the other end of it.
I could feel your pain; I would've puked that up barely 3 min in. No one can say you don't work for these challenges. You are the machine 🙂
You did an amazing job on this challenge! I usually enjoy watching. However, the further you went the more I felt like I was going to be sick myself or cry. I felt so bad for you.
