  • I attempted the world famous 72 oz Steak Challenge at The Big Texan Steak Ranch in Amarillo, Texas. It's probably one of the oldest food challenges still active, and It was huge! The challenge consisted of a salad, 72 oz steak, 3 fried shrimp, a baked potato, and a roll. The challengers have 1 hour to complete the challenge and win the meal for free, a t-shirt, a souvenir boot mug, and your name on their wall of fame! Everything was delicious and the challenge was a lot of fun. The Big Texan puts the challengers on center stage. During the challenge, a lot of people come up to checkout the challenge, wish us luck, and take photos. Another challenger (Eric) decided to come and try this at the same time I did, so we were both put on stage at the same time to attempt this. It was great meeting Eric and his wife; they were awesome and on their own adventure. Anyway, checkout the video to see how I did.

    Hi. I Once Met a Person Who Says That He Ate The 72 Oz Steak and completed the Challenge. He is No Longer Living but I Wonder if It Was True. He Did Have A Lot of Years Of Eating At Several places. He was From Florissant Missouri. Calvin Plummer. Don't Know if Anyone Would Know That Name but He Was A Cool Person. This was In the 1980s or early 1990s. Just Saw That Video and Thought of That Person. 😊

      I can’t say that I’ve heard of Calvin Plummer. As for The Big Texan, they have been doing this challenge since 1960 and there have now been more than 10,000 people finish the meal (more than 90.000 have tried). It’s a fun challenge. Thank you for sharing.

      @OldGuyEats  Год назад +1

      Win or lose, you’ll have fun! As far as tips, come hungry and don’t overcook the steak. A dry steak is harder to eat. I recommend med-rare. Make this your only meal for the day. I did this passing through Amarillo on a road trip as well. Good luck!

    • @OldGuyEats
      @OldGuyEats  10 месяцев назад

      I believe it is butterflied sirloin; although, I’m not positive. It was cooked very good (med rare). You tell them how you want it, and they let you try it before the challenge starts. If it’s not cooked to your liking, tell them.

      Everything was great and went down easy. So much so, you probably saw, I got a cookie sundae afterwards. It wasn’t as big as other challenges either. The only tip I have is not to over cook your steak. I ordered mine medium rare and it was soft and juicy. Eric, the other challenger, ordered his steak cooked more, and it was a little dry and harder to eat (according to him). Go for it!
