- Hey everyone, I am about to take on an epic food challenge! Today, I'm at Spud Shack in Deer Park, TX, where I'm going to attempt the Big Kahuna Challenge, a massive loaded BBQ baked potato that weighs about 9 lbs and has never been defeated! This monster potato is topped with queso, brisket, sausage, sour cream, and more, and I have only one hour to finish it. Will I be the first person to complete this challenge and win a year of free baked potatoes? Watch the video to find out! Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more epic food adventures!

Not gonna lie, this looks good! Enjoyed watching this one. gonna rewatch with my kids tomorrow
Thanks buddy! It was delicious!
Wow those are some huge apuds!! Amazing go at it! This was fully loaded;
Thanks Max! This turned out to be something you’d probably smash, but too big for me. It was delicious. 😋
I love baked potatoes, especially loaded ones! I don't think I could beat this challenge, but I think I could handle 2 potatoes, like you did.
No shame in that. I think the size of this challenge is probably only! Too big for me! 😞
I have been binging your videos recently and love all of them! Keep up the amazing work!
Thank you my friend! I’m so happy you are enjoying my channel. I am having fun making them. 👍
Great job!! That looks amazing!!I love loaded baked potatoes!! 🥔 Thanx again for another great video!!😊
Thank you very much! The food was awesome!
Great effort Chris! Those Big bakers can weigh 21/2-3 lbs alone each so that was a huge challenge!
Thanks. These were definitely in that range. The chef even told me these were some of the biggest potatoes they have gotten in.
Great job Chris. The video didn’t do the size justice. Seeing them in person gives more of An appreciation of how much you did eat.
Thanks for coming Gary. I’m still surprised at how big it was. Definitely not expected. Their portions are obviously big. The single loaded spud you got was huge! 😁
You weren’t kidding! Those potatoes sure were loaded! They seemed never ending!
Definitely one of the larger challenges. Personally, I think restaurants should try to be consistent with food challenges. But I guess you can’t help the size of a potato, and you said Spud Shack are good at what they do.
Great job getting through as much as you did, and better luck next time 🙂
I think consistency is important for the challenge he’s as well. They may not be able to control the variability of size of the potatoes, but they can weigh out 3 lbs of potato for the challenge. At least it tasted great! Thanks 👍
Now that was an insane challenge. Sorry I couldn't make it on Sunday. But well done as always!
It was. It was a beast, and too much for me. As for Sunday, it’s a good thing you didn’t make it. It was cancelled. Sometime you and I need to attempt Charlie’s 5 Alarm. It will be my first attempt at spicy. 🥵
Just watching now and HOLY MOLY! Now thats what I call a baked potato 👀😸 I would probably be able to finish just as much as you did. Those suckers put on some weight and dense even the tiny ones at home lmao. Great job! Hopefully you took that remaining one home. Looked good as heck
Thanks. Yeah… it was huge! I did take the left overs home. The potato was too good not to.
If the potatoes were advertised as 1lb in the challenge they should honor that! That speaks on the restaurant.
You are absolutely right. The challengers should know what they are signing up for. I won’t be going for redemption. I’m just happy the food was delicious and everyone was friendly. 👍
Try the 20 Big Mac challenge next. You got the power.
Thank’s for the suggestion. That would make for a good challenge. Much like these potatoes, 20 Big Macs may be beyond my capabilities. I’ll consider this. 👍
I think just 1 of those would do me in lol! Great job 😊
I had a friend join me there. He got their “normal” sized loaded potatoes, and it too was pretty big. Their portion size was generous. Thanks 👍
Great try buddy, those were huge spuds!
This was something more inline with your capabilities, not mine. It was delicious, just too big for me.
Those are the biggest potatoes I've ever seen !!!! Definitely not the advertised challenge !!! Very few competitive eaters could do this !!!
Agree. At this size, only pros have the potential to win.
One potato, two potato, three potato. That’s not a 1lb potato! lol! Great effort my friend. Unfortunately you have to go with what they give you. 🦾
Yep, and this wasn’t in the cards for me. At least it was good. 👍 Thanks
Great job, shipmate. That looked like one heck of a challenge. #GONAVY
Thanks buddy! It was definitely a gut buster for sure. #GONAVY
Those potatoes are some Giant Spuds!! Wow!!
Sure were! Possibly the biggest I have ever seen. Big and tasty!😋
I'm full simply watching it😂
As soon as it came out, I kinda knew the outcome. That was a beast. Bigger than advertised. It was good though, and I had leftovers. 😁
Good effort man!!!! U know your limits... Nobody wants a reversal
I agree. No sense in continuing. I finished 2/3 in 3/4 of the time. It was never going to happen.
@@OldGuyEats guess you will have to go back when potatoes are out of season and smaller....lol
@@toddveden5302 I think there is too much uncertainty here. I don’t think I’ll go back for redemption.
It was nice meeting you at the Humble Bacon Festival. I don't know how you stay so slim.
It was great meeting you guys you too. I’m looking forward to seeing your video of the event. As for me staying slim, I exercise daily, and eat healthy and mindfully between challenges.
let's go! This is huge!
This one is for you! You’ve got this. 👍
Omg, Holy Potatoes!! Scary but you got this! I wouldn't have liked the shrimp though. Looks really good. I would say it probly weights a good 11 lbs. good luck. Goooooooo Chris....Hey you tried and did your best. You did great.....
The shrimp wasn’t my favorite part either. Overall though, it was super delicious! Based on the last potato I weighed, I’m estimating it was 9 lbs. possible a little more based on what would have been piled in the middle of the 3 potatoes. Thank you! ❤️
That was quite the challenge. Need to have a scale to weigh the food before the challenge to make sure it’s as advertised. Those were massive baked potatoes and a lot of meat toppings.
Other than the 3 lbs of potatoes, they didn’t advertise the total weight. The potatoes alone though, were far heavier than 3 lbs. I did bring a scale, but forgot about it before I started. Really tasty though, and although I was screwer, the staff was really friendly.
I love bbq baked potatoes!!! Those aren’t TX sized potatoes but Alaska sized!
Hahaha… 😂 You are right! Love it! ❤️
Valiant effort. You are right, those potatoes were NOT one pound each. You might consider getting a scale you can take to the challenge to keep them honest.
Was still a GREAT video and you did a FANTASTIC job!
I had one, but didn’t think about it before I started. I weighed the loaded potato I didn’t finish. It was just a hair under 3 lbs. Based on that plus what was in the middle that I ate, this was a 9 lb challenge. Thanks
Omg i could eat that every day 😋
It was delicious! I could eat something like that regularly, but this was too big for me to finish! It was a monster!
@OldGuyEats you did good 👍🏻 again looked awesome my dude
@@gothicmatter9123 Thank you
@OldGuyEats welcome my dude 💜🖤
OMG I couldn't eat that my stomach would explode that looks good though
Hahaha… 😂. Well, I certainly didn’t finish. My stomach may have exploded too if I managed to shove it all down.
1 free potato a month??? 1???
That’s at least a free Potato a week for a year size
You’re not kidding. There’s a reason it’s undefeated. After, the chef said to me… “I beat you!” It was deliberately made big.
@@OldGuyEats I hate restaurants that do that shit…. I’d put a disclaimer on your video calling out the Cook
@KatinaEatsKilos have you ever been to Deer Park Tx? You should look into this challenge ❤❤❤❤.
@RandySantel you should look into this one also.
Great effort Chris! And yesh, shrimpies don't belong on a baked tater.
I agree. They were good, but didn’t go well with everything else. I think they just add all their proteins on the challenge. Overall, very good though.
That was insane 😊
Very! Way bigger than it should have been!
I have never seen potatoes that big before! What on earth..
I don’t think I have either. I don’t know where they get those.
I actually want to try this out lol
I have no idea where they got them. They said the potatoes they get in vary in size. May be big one day, and smaller on another. What I got was about 9 lbs; however, they originally told me o. The phone when I called about it that it was about 7 lbs. when I failed, the guy that made it told me he beat me. It tasted great though. Good luck. 👍
Is it spicy hot or just hot temperature wise? Def have to check it out…. It looks amazing! 20 min per potato… go get it…maybe they need to adjust the time according to potato size to be fair… looks like a great potato!!
The potatoes retained their heat which is what was hot; no spice. It tasted great, but now that you say that, I think I would have liked a little spicy heat on it. In the end, it didn’t matter how much time I had, I couldn’t finish it. Thanks!
Your still a beast great job!
Thanks buddy! 😁
@OldGuyEats my boyfriend and his Dad was in there the day you did this challenge.
Pretty cool! The food there is really good. I’m surprised it’s not busier.
potatoes on steroids!
You can say that again. They were HUGE!!! And very delicious. I know now, this really is a pro only challenge, not for someone like me. 😁
I'm sure you can get it some day!@@OldGuyEats
Its like you got con into the challenge by them advertising 3+ pounds of food and then turning around making it 9 pounds.. Kinda shady if you ask me ! But cheers to you promoting them. I'll never eat there if they going to trick content creators like yourself & rob you guys the $50 dollars.
I can appreciate that. It definitely wasn’t what was expected or what was indicated on the menu. ☹️
Great try
Thanks buddy!
finished one 3lbs sweet potato once. But damn now i marked this place in google maps...
But in terms of burgers i was probably the only non-american on the wall at cheeburger cheeburger on sanibel for finishing their monster...
I love sweet potato’s. If you decide to attempt this, I hope the received some smaller potatoes. 👍
That is not potatos.. that is basketballs.. ;-)
Hahaha… 😂 Too true!
I want to do this challenge where at
Good question. They closed the location I did it at and are supposedly in the process of building out a new location. In the meantime their telephone number doesn’t work. The restaurant is called “Spud Shack” and is outside of Houston TX. Keep an eye on their social media and try and reach out that way. It was massive, but also really good.
You did try Chris
Too much those were huge
You did try your best
Thanks. It was too big for me.
Soon as i seen those potatoes on that tray I'm thinking 600-800g each, then they load those toppings on and double the weight.... The challenge states "3lb potato" not 3 - 1lb potatoes... I think each potato is supposed to be 3lbs after all the fixing on it and you just did 3x challenges... so you should get two for free, but then again i guess you only paid once, on the one you never ate. so break even... lol
My guess is that kid screwed up and served you 3 challenges at once.
That’s a good thought. I like your thinking. Unfortunately, I have seen a few people try and it looked like they all got 3 potatoes. I was expecting 3, just not that size. With the uncertainty of the size and the potential of what it may be, I won’t be back for redemption. This o e is beyond me. Oh well. Good food though.
For this being a hobby, you sure take it way more than that. Swag, videos, excuses in comments. Just for fun?
What can I say… I enjoy food, enjoy the challenges, and like making the videos. It’s the reason this is my hobby. I have fun!
bulimia.
Nope. I have never purged after eating. I would suspect, that most people that attempt food challenges don’t purge.
You were literally maybe 1/3 in and slowing down significantly. Don't give up your day job bro. Terrible effort here as an eater. All you did was whine and complain about how big it was the whole time. That's part of the game bro.
Nope, not giving up my day job.
