Amigos, este viernes me toca un dia fuera de mi Dieta, pues he seguido con dieta estricta durante varias semanas, asi que decidi que quizas seria interesante tratar este Reto de Comida. Un pancake gigante de mas de 60cm de Diametro y mas de 3.5 kilogramos de peso. Tomando en cuenta el liquido para pasarte la comida quizas sean unos 5kg en Total. Creen que seria interesante ver este reto en mi canal de youtube? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Les dejo aqui tambien un reportaje del periodico local: Deerfield Beach eaterys Terminator food challenge remains undefeated November 6, 2010|By Ruben Cueto, Forum Publishing Group Mention the Terminator, and the first thing Id think of was the movie role that helped make Arnold Schwarzenegger a star. Not anymore. Now I associate it with the behemoth breakfast challenge offered at Shelbys, 3952 W. Hillsboro Blvd. in Deerfield Beach. The 24-inch pancake (yes, 24 inches), served on an oversized metal tray, is as intimidating as Arnolds killing-machine cyborg character. Our sister Forum publications are preparing a special section on great eats that will be published in December. As ideas were discussed for it, one that came up was doing a food challenge, ala the Travel Channel show Man v. Food; episodes are highlighted by host Adam Richman trying to tackle an outrageous culinary concoction. I never had a chance. Billed as South Floridas biggest pancake breakfast, The Terminator is topped with eggs, home fries, sausage, bacon and toast. Actually, buried is a more fitting description. As owner Erik Brinkmann explained, the pancake carries four eggs, a pound of bacon, six sausage patties, 1.5 to 2 pounds of potatoes and four pieces of toast. Including the tray, The Terminator weighs in at about 8 pounds. Shelbys has offered this no-time-limit challenge for about four years, and roughly 300 people have stepped up to the plate. If you finish it, the meal is free. No ones gotten a free Terminator yet. Everyone has a different strategy; none of them has worked, he said. After the food arrived, I decided to combine some of the elements, making two sausage and eggsandwiches. Within a few minutes, I had pretty much cleared three items off the challenge. Any sense of satisfaction was fleeting, however, as I next tried tackling the home fries. I spent a good five minutes shoveling down potatoes, and there was still a mountain of them left. To break the monotony, I started mixing in the bacon. At about the 30-minute mark, I finally took my first bite of the pancake. The pancake by itself would be a tough challenge — its a thick flapjack that requires about a gallon of batter to make. The story behind it is a funny one. One day, Brinkmann accidentally dropped a pitcher of pancake batter on the grill. Instead of trying to sop it up, he just let it cook. A lot of great people were made by accident. In my case, it was a pancake, he said. Word has gotten out about Shelbys and its signature challenge — the Food Network was recently there for an episode of its new show, Outrageous Food. About 40 minutes in, I threw in the towel. I finished the eggs, toast, sausage, bacon, about half the potatoes and roughly a quarter of the pancake. However, there was still a little more than 4 pounds of food remaining. This was my first time at Shelbys. All the items on the dish were quite good, and I especially liked the bacon. So, to borrow a line from Arnolds Terminator character, Ill be back. But if I plan on ordering Shelbys Terminator again, Im going to need a lot of help.
