  • Today I am at Backstreet Grub in Irvine, KY to take on their undefeated Sasquatch Burger Challenge. This challenge consists of a 4lb burger, 1/2 bag of fries, and 8oz of baked beans. I will have just 40 minutes to finish this and if I do I will get the meal for free, become the first winner, get an awesome T-shirt, and get my name and photo on their Wall of Fame. Thank you to Aaron and everyone at Backstreet Grub for welcoming us into their restaurant. The food was delicious. Thank you to everyone that came out and stayed to cheer me on, I had a great time meeting everybody!

    Pretty good time for that big meal. I am not a fan of beans with my burger and fries, sound UKish to me lol. Nice job. Lol at the progess bit. I understand that fully

    Great job !! I know this was done a while ago, but I was channel surfing and I love to watch your videos, so I got stuck binge watching. Lol. I always think what I would do different to save some time so for me, I would’ve dumped the beans all over the fries to make them softer. Not telling you what to do. I’m just saying what I would do. Thanks for another great video. 🎉

      Really dig your editing style btw.. kind of a mix between Beard/Brandon/ Geoff Esper.. works well with the modern youtube viewer.. healthy use of the time lapse on a big challenge is a must imo.

    @MackB40 Před rokem

    Great job! Also, like the new outro that I noticed on this and prior vid. When catching up on vids since I started watching pro food eaters (Randy, Katina, Beard, Brandon, you and Nathan Klein) about 2 months ago, I had just viewed the one you Brandon did posted 5 months ago at Hwy 55 Burgers and Shakes, and I liked what Brandon said about you’re eating style, that it’s pleasing to watch. I know it depends on the type of challenge on how one tries/has to eat, but even if it’s a speed challenge, you never seemed rushed. Catch ya on the next one, man!

    Great job Eli! For such a huge challenge, the food looked good. For future reference, could you describe how much s half bag of fries is if it ever comes up again. (Re: 1/2 of 2 lb bag)
    Your family is awesome to support you so well. 👍

    • @EliLessig
      @EliLessig  Před rokem

      Thank you, I'll try to remember that in the future. I believe it was a 4lb bag of fries.

    • @EliLessig
      @EliLessig  Před rokem +1

      No real reason, I like marinara with pizza crusts but usually dont use extra ketchup but I definitely would if I experience enough flavor fatigue.

    • @EliLessig
      @EliLessig  Před rokem +1

      In the beginning they had said it was and then they said it wasn't part of it. I would have finished it if they required it. I should have clarified that when they said that. Sorry.
