Yes, Two my boys did it while I enjoyed a smaller order. At least i didn’t have to pay for their meals…except for the snoring in the truck far into Oklahoma !!

I must admit I would like to visit some of the places in the story. I am beyond the point where I would tackle a huge steak alone…but sharing one would be a fun experience. To me, that 64 oz Porterhouse looks pretty darn good !

I have eaten at the Big Texan in Amarillo, TX before. I did not order the big steak though. I think the Mayor’s son has done it and finished it?

I once convinced myself to order and finish a 48 oz. steak at Shula’s steak house so that I could get my name on a plaque on the wall, and could barely move at the end of the meal. Great steak, but it was tough going. I can’t imagine finishing off a four-pounder.[xx(][xx(]

I’d like to give that a shot!..and then sleep for two days!!

One guy ate 2 of them there in 32 minutes I read, also a 76 yr. old woman did the trick! Please pass the Charmin![:D]

If you ever come to Chicago….The Chop House has the best steaks…forget Gibson’s, etc…go the Chop House…[:p]

I’d do well to manage a 6 oz steak… but I have a very small stomach and small portion tolerance. Yet it still baffles me how some people have the capacity to put away 4 or 5 pounds of food in one sitting. And not just the 64-oz. steaks… that’s mild compared to some competitive eaters I’ve seen.

8 oz. steak? I eat hamburgers bigger than that. thats just an appetizer.

I do not know how anyone could consume a 64 ounce steak. I do well to eat a 8 ounce job. Even then I have some left over.

That 64 oz Porterhouse is GOOD. I had to get it medium (so the center would be a little warm), it took everything I had to finish it.

I think it was around $90 for the steak, they also have really good crabcakes and AWESOME, and I do mean AWESOME potato pancakes.
