Anybody ever had a go at the Big Texan Steakhouse in Amarillio? 72 oz steak, cooked your way, baked potato, salad, shrimp cocktail, in an hour?
Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.
When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown
Any way to shrink that photo down? It makes the type too small to read on my screen.
I don’t know that English beef would have the same qualities as found at Big Texan.

Pass. I wouldn't eat 1/4 of a 200 oz steak at a Texas steakhouse and you couldn't pay me to do it in England.
I spent 10 days in England last year which included eating at two London steakhouses and one of them was extremely expensive. The grade of meat wasn't very good at either, and only one could did a decent job of cooking it. I could make a killing there selling reverse seared prime grade steaks.

I like my steaks mid rare but that's way too rare for me. No way I could eat the meat in the center.

It might be OK if it's not cooked by an English cook. For the most part their cooking is horrible. Except the fish & chips. Otherwise I will stick to the ethnic restaurants while in England

About 50oz per person? I'm a little embarrassed to say that I could take that and probably a dessert depending on my mood that day.

Do you have to eat all the sides too?
Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent.

They also happen to have a single person 100oz challenge, but only one person has completed it

I once ate steak at one of the best steak houses in London (according to my host). It wasn’t nearly as good as K-Bob’s in Raton, which is a low bar to set for a steak joint.
Ain’t no way I could eat 50oz of steak in England.

John Pinette would have taken the challenge.

To those who have commented on eating steaks in England, how is it that the steaks aren't tasty?
