For you Detroit area folks you may be familiar with Noah's Smokehouse in Dearborn. Looks like they have some really tasty, true Texas Hill Country style barbecue. Anyway this comp eater that I watch on YouTube occasionally by the name of Joel Hansen takes on a 13 pound barbecue challenge. Has to eat it all in one hour, and does so in 37 minutes. It's pretty close to about as much food as I've ever seen a human eat in less than an hour, that would be major pain in my gut to even eat half. That platter could easily feed 10 people. I guess if you're in the area, visit Noah's for some free grub, that is if you can down it all.
I of course love smoked meats of all kinds, but also like quick cooks like chicken portions, pork tenderloins, steak and fish. Really into cooking of all kinds.
My outdoor kitchen has a Lone Star Grillz Adjustable and it is wonderful. There also is a Pit Boss 5 Burner Ultimate Griddle.
There is an outdoor fire pit that has grilling capability and limited Santa Maria-style grill raising and lowering.
I watched through the first bite. And then I just...couldn't. Good barbecue, to me, is something to be savored slowly. I didn't want to see all that good stuff treated like cheap commodities.
Scotch: Current favorite- The Arran (anything by them), Glenmorangie 12yr Lasanta, sherry cask finished. The Balvenie Double Wood, also like Oban 18yr, and The Glenlivet Nadurra (Oloroso sherry cask finished) among others. Neat please.

Oh……shawarmas, yum. Back in the day, Falafal King in Westwood, Ca (just outside UCLA) made the best shawarmas and fried chips. Their gone now….boo hoo.
Spent a fair amount of time in Dearborn. 2006-07. Working projects for Ford. Stayed at the Marroitt. Kinda cool, old hotel which has been restored, sort of. Close to the Ford Test Track. Ate at few places. Don't ask me names. At one joint I recall, the evening sports radio show broadcast live from there. Nice touch but they talked Detroit sports, YAWN. Was not into Q then, but this place sure looks good.
Unreal. If I hadn't seen it, I wouldn't have believed it. Even net of the bones, that's a lot of food! But as noted above, that is kind of a waste of some good looking Q.
Retired, living in Western Mass. Enjoy music, cooking and my family.
Current cookers Weber Spirit 3 burner. A 22" Kettle with vortex SnS and OnlyFire pizza oven. A Smokey Joe and the most recent addition a Pit Barrel Jr with bird hanger, 4 hooks and cover. ThermoWorks Smoke 2 probe, DOT, ThermoPop and a Thermapen Mk4. Recently added 2 TempSpike wireless meat thermometers.
I know someone that ate the 72 oz steak challenge at the Big Texan Steak Ranch in Amarillo, TX. You have to consume the shrimp cocktail, baked potato, salad, roll, butter, and the 72 oz steak in 1 hour. That plate of bbq dwarfs the steak in Amarillo. Someone needs to have a German chocolate cake, coconut cream pie, or chocolate donut challenge. That I might try that.
And for you Canadians, here the son-of-a-gun is eating 18# of Texas style barbecue and sides at Beach Hill Smokehouse in Toronto. Guy’s a human disposal 😂
