That chicken is wet coated with seasoned cornstarch a very thin thin batter no and maybe a little flower but I don't think so with the way it looks and as crunchy as it is.✌✌🎅🚌🌻

[@TroyStevens1]

I never eat foie gras at a buffet

[@wombat5252]

Shrimp. Tried shrimp cooked every which way, nope. Gross and I like most seafood.

[@ippola07]

Sea food

[@patriciarowe6685]

Meat.

[@CupidsCrackhouse]

Joel pulls up to an all you can eat buffet and the owners turn off the lights, lock the doors and crawl around the floor so he can't see them 😂

[@TheRocco96]

He would be more welcome if he actually ordered a few rounds of drinks with his food, instead of only drinking the free water.

[@DentSideDee71]

@@TheRocco96there’s no point of drinking while you eat Joel’s said this in his recent video but he was referring the gentleman who was saying why don’t you smoke there’s your answer sorry it’s late 😂

[@BohoMagik]

When Joel bit into the lemon cake his face said it all .. “no bueno” 😂 🍋

[@jonchal5561]

I'm on a 30 day fast on day 17. These videos R what get me thru

[@carlafrakes9968]

Welcome to Utah Joel!! I've been watching you for awhile now and love it! Hope you have a great visit. ❤

[@tammielongino7485]

MY FAVORITE HOLIDAY IS THANKSGIVING. GIVE ME THE TURKEY,STUFFING,MASHED POTATO, CORN AND CRANBERRY SAUCE AND I AM A HAPPY CAMPER. 🍗🍗🍗

[@chrissywalls5902]

The fried chicken and the baked chicken looked exactly the same. You're being so nice here, Joel. Most buffets are mediocre at best and we can see that's the case here. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@Nawfamimgood]

Definitely the most underwhelmed I’ve seen him doing a buffet video. The only thing he seemed to really enjoy were the veggies and the scone

[@Bigedub101]

But it's $20 so I'm not expecting gourmet

[@timburnette5914]

Love how you describe food Joel. You have a way with words

[@Franckbery]

appreciate you watching

[@carolisrael120]

My mother made strawberry shortcake with homemade scones for the base, with vanillaice cream, tones of sweetened strawberries, and real whippedcream. Melted in your mouth!

[@timothykozlowski2945]

Joel seems to have a good time eating when he's not in a rush

[@virgoblue1392]

That salad bar looks refreshing and good. So did the pasta bar. 😛

[@americanangler94559]

You should dump the term "not bad" if the food is good, say it's good, if it's bad, say it's bad.

[@brian7327]

I agree with you on that

[@faithwalk2cor578]

I have never heard him say something was bad.

[@SethHenry90]

He's too nice but it's admirable

[@patriciarowe6685]

Joel is Canadian too bloody polite. Love him ❤

[@wboggs2623]

I agree maybe there should be several more terms, such as good edible not edible that I don’t know I guess we could just ask Joe what he means when he says it’s not bad?

[@BeastMortThe]

Did I miss something? I typically skip non-challenge videos but the title says "...and this happened..." and nothing happened!

[@rengon9611]

Yeah I was confused too

[@seanvogel8067]

Surely something happened. 😬

[@iLockeHeart]

I feel like the food was mid but he was being nice about it lol

[@Burtraw13]

Try the raspberry jam next to the scones with the whipped butter. It's so yummy!

[@brennanjoseph7273]

That Lasagna caught my eye!

[@chriscarr6392]

Great review! I love that area! Keep up the great content. I truly appreciate your efforts. Thank you, Joel!

[@brettross2622]

Nothing happened. You ate. Seemed like you were going to be bothered by the staff or something.

[@TacoBellMukbangRequested]

Clickbait

[@conniesawyer5108]

No pasta in broccoli salad...never heard of it in Canada...eh!?!? Lol

[@newfee1967]

As you walk through showing the food items offered at the buffet I can honestly say. Nope yes nope yes nope yes to all the foods you will try and the ones you will pass.😂😂😂

[@Franckbery]

thanks for watching

[@SpiritsAndDemons]

Broccoli salad. 🥦 Never heard of pasta in it. Now that you mentioned it... Guess what I will be making soon. The last time we had it was when me and my husband got married. ❤❤❤ Yummy... We love our veggies. I add bacon 🥓 to my Broccoli salad. ❤

[@exile220ify]

"And this happened"? And WHAT happened? Wow, you didn't like the lemon cake? Quick, let's alert the media! Joel, you make good videos, but clickbait titles like this are beneath you.

[@tommynguyen6843]

Just my opinion but it seem Joel didn’t like this buffet too much

[@sandistolle4874]

Honestly, it didn’t seem like any item really got your attention’s. Really surprised you did’t hit the beef harder. That probably says it all.

[@MikeBaxterABC]

20:48 .. And not so noisy now ... Although? Sometimes a like a busy seating area .. you know this level now, with everyone chatting and happy :) ... It's contagious. like a nice family atmosphere! :) .. you feel comfortable talking :)

[@jenmerkley1642]

I love that you were so in love with the scone with the honey butter. They are definitely a rare treat and not an eat every day type thing. You need to go further north in Utah to see the lush green and fall colors in the mountains. St. George is the hot, desert corner of the state. I love that you're in Utah though! Welcome!

[@marmite999]

Scone or scooooone

[@ladygreer9323]

Hey Joel. When you eat, you eat... Always a pleasure... Enjoy the buffet food. Have a great weekend... 🐞🥰😁

[@baxill23]

I've never once had Utah cross my mind when thinking of places with a good food scene. In fact it's probably the last place I would ever imagine finding really good food.

[@laurenschenck5355]

Happy Friday Joel you rock thanks for awesome week of videos ❤

[@Sgrim7604]

Finally a place I can go to and actually have. Granted i went to one in Northern Utah, but i love St. George

[@m.e.9974]

I love the senior price,as well free meal after 10 trips...I eat the salad last,healthier...the roughage cleanses the palet and G.I. tract.Usual go on monday,Monday, fried steak,or Thurs,mexican...of course everything else you see on your video..I'm good at 4 plates.😊

[@GiovanniGT500S]

I thought it was a sweet potato in ur plate 🤣 but it was carrots and turkey roast

[@ZebraChanda]

I think most buffets make the mains ok but not great because they cost the most. They focus on making the sides taste the best cause they are cheaper and more filling.

[@SRTPCC]

That is the least I've ever seen you eat. Good for you lol

[@RezRetroBuilder]

Your scone is supposed to be eaten with honey butter or you can use jam or jelly. It taste good either way.

[@rivermoon4825]

Red Lobster is doing their all you can eat shrimp for $20. You should try that next.

[@beths4249]

I’m not sure how true it is. Was always told you should end your meal with a salad to aid digestion. Yet with you Joel.. I’m sure you could have salad in the beginning an ending lol. Great video as usual! 🙌🏻🤟🏻

[@mygirldarby]

Vegetables first followed by protein and fat, then carbs. That's the order the French eat. Always start with veggies. Carbs, even simple carbs, digest at a slow rate when you eat your vegetables for fiber and your protein and fats first. It's only when you eat refined carbs first that it dramatically raises your blood sugar and causes a crash.

[@walmars3curity]

@@mygirldarby The French dont know everything.

[@user-po1wr5hm6v]

I don't like pasta in a broccoli salad but I do like broccoli in a pasta salad. :)

[@kyzercube]

Joel I'm a HUGE beets and pickled beets fan! I could easily inhale that entire platter of beets at the salad bar and have plenty of room for a few more plates of meats and other assorted vittles 🤤

[@stevealkire7626]

*So you're the one...* 😄

[@kyzercube]

@@stevealkire7626 yup! I'm the one responsible for all the beets missing from the all you can eat salad bars 😉

[@halliemosteller8678]

You came to Utah!!! I’m so happy 😊

[@pikminscool]

Not impressed, not much happened, Joel ate Salads, breads, and chicken. Then left. Quite the normal restaurant fare

[@simonleland2873]

Just across the freeway from Chuck-a-Rama is a great Sushi place called Sakaura. The best sushi is Southern Utah.

[@GordonWMay]

Joel, the bread you ate at the end is called monkey bread.

[@Dragon1973s]

Just got my new tshirt you tube Joel Hansen, love it, thank you so much for doing this new merchandise Joel. ❤❤❤❤

[@AlmostMileHighInUtah]

A scone is a dense dough. A beignet is much lighter in texture.

[@williammartin4368]

Don't let these haters buzz you brother eating like that and looking that good is work

[@patriciarowe6685]

That is NOTHING like an English scone. That sounds more like a yorkshire pudding. Great video ❤

[@TheBabe61]

Yorkshire puddings are cooked in the oven, plus they have milks and eggs added.

[@sandyhickey8236]

It all looked good and your commentary on everything gives us a very good idea of what it all tasted like

[@matdaddy4902]

Idkkk but when I see you get more veggies then the main dishes, I feel as if it wasn’t all that lol, especially when you only got one piece of fried chicken, that’s not like Joel

[@ambermarie5019]

No elbow on the table Joel 😂

[@Zone_Stomper]

Thanks for the HalfTime Show. I feel like I'm ready to Füm. Füm Füm Füm Füm didi Füm Füm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you feel it? Can you feel the Füm?

Hey can you please video yourself eating Red Lobster’s endless shrimp??

[@Rusty.Shackhouse]

You’re the only person I know that likes Mountain Dew 🤷‍♂️😄

[@ediechristensen5187]

I like my fried chicken without any sauces. But chicken is my fav food. I make my own chicken strip seasoning batter. I use coconut flour and seasoning.

[@steveaustin330]

My neighbor made me two large chicken burgers for supper, I got crazy like Joe and added two pounds of bacon on them lol.

[@beckyjo8745]

Gravy on chicken and turkey, otherwise it's too dry.

Do come up to Boise, ID and see what there is to tempt your taste buds.

[@jmert_5859]

@ 6:37 Salt shaker works. sheesh.

[@CarThief_News]

The tongs laying on top of the food on the salad bar is beyond disgusting... Health Department would most definitely write that up as a violation.

St George huh, Thats about 8 hours away from me I live out by SLC! Hope you liked it out there! 💪

[@carolisrael120]

My mom made fresh scones for Strawberry Shortcake ! That was traditional in my German family. I don't know why.

[@williamparker6649]

First place Joel has eaten at where I have zero desire to eat there!

[@johnnysmall4206]

I like Hot sauce and mayonnaise mixed together. You should try it. ✌✌✌

no mayo for me

Dude if your still in Utah you should try this place called “ Sweets” in Provo

Utah fried chicken 😂😂.. Great video, though 💯

[@randomexploring541]

Dang it I’ll just barely miss you! I’ll be in SLC on the 4th! I’ve only been to Chuck-A-Rama in SLC; didn’t even know there was one in St. George! Years ago, there was a couple who ate there and were told they couldn’t eat any more roast beef because they’d eaten too much already, 18 slices. And to answer your question, I would NEVER eat potato salad from a buffet, because I’ve gotten really bad food poisoning that way before.

[@laurenschenck5355]

OMG! I LOVE BUFFETS SO MUCH! 😊

[@wittystone]

Joel, as a child was told to finish everything on his plate. Prove me wrong.

[@mikya9611]

That all looks so good!

[@Baughlin]

Haven’t been to chuck-a-Rama for a long time their chicken is some of the best chicken I’ve tried. If I’m not mistaken though the “chuck” in chuck-a-Rama is named after the chuck wagon.

[@jerrys220]

Hey Joel. All I can say is "seems like a long drive for hot sauce and ketchup". Oh well? Sounds like this place was definitely over hyped.

[@patsytrest4879]

Love gravy. On everything except desserts lol. Love buffets if they are a certain price. All looks good Joel.

[@fmchef25]

You really need to come to Moonlight bbq buffet in Owensboro, ky. You will love it, the best Mac and cheese around!!!!

[@littlelebaneseable]

Hey Joel, born and raised in Salt Lake City. Up Chuck a Rama as we called it is definitely not the best all you can eat in Utah. Not a bad chain though. There are some really good ones in SLC. if you come further into the state I would definitely show. I assume this was a quick drive from Vegas.
