THE LEGENDARY KOOKAMONGA BURGER CHALLENGE | KOOKY CANUCK | MAN VS FOOD | MEMPHIS TENNESSEE

[@bigchungus540]

The two kids at the end were so adorable!

[@EliLessig]

They were great!

[@brandyjones0827]

You were so good with those adorable little girls Eli ❤ absolutely heartwarming!

[@EliLessig]

Thank you, they were great!

[@FrancosFeasts]

Another great victory, Eli! Great to be including the family too!

[@EliLessig]

Thank you my friend 🙏

[@MicahHughes-y9t]

Nice job Eli, Amber is a character and those guest appearance girls were adorable! Happy New Year

[@EliLessig]

Thank you very much and Happy New Year!

[@christie4044]

I love watching you. Amber is so sweet, too. Btw, Amber was correct, mayo would've helped. Nobody wants just mayo and bread but with the veggies it would've been a better sandwich, feeling a bit juicier. You are so wonderful with supporters and great with kids! The girls are absolutely adorable!! 💜

[@EliLessig]

Thank you and Amber is ALWAYS right! 😆 That's what I have learned over the years! Thank you for watching and we both appreciate the support 🙏

[@Sandi-m1f]

Great job Eli and I love the two little girls at the end. ❤❤❤

[@EliLessig]

They were adorable!

[@annepgill]

Fantastic job you are such a wonderful person …the kids are so sweet, hi to Amber also who is having a blast with the sangria😊👋🏻

[@EliLessig]

Thank you 🙏 We appreciate it very much!

[@annepgill]

@ very welcome I always try to support as much as I can and you always have a kind word for your subscribers which I also appreciate 😊

[@amberlessig]

Hello to you also

[@arthursimpson6380]

Another awesome job. I think you got some competition them 2 stole the show. One was defiantly not camera shy.

[@EliLessig]

They absolutely stole the show! That's ok though, they were so polite and sweet!

[@DD-mu6ud]

Great job and those girls were so adorable.

[@EliLessig]

They were dying to be in the video, no way could I have said no!

[@kimberlyoneil6705]

Amber!! 😂😂 Happy New Year y'all!! Another great video and challenge. Those two young ladies are just adorable. Always good to have fans around and make cameos. Look forward to more greatness this year. God bless.

[@EliLessig]

They really are so sweet, it was a great day. Happy New Year and God bless 🙌

[@reneeshellman6840]

Congrats on the win. I love that you are now showing both you and Amber eating desserts over very humorous conversations.❣❣

[@EliLessig]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed that part! It's my favorite!

[@OldGuyEats]

Thanks for the shout out! The challenge looked delicious, but not one I will be trying until I can take down Kenny’s first. That was impressive. I’d love to talk more with you about the challenge you need a team.

[@EliLessig]

Heck yeah, it's a 25lb total weight burger for four people. I think you would make a great addition!

[@OldGuyEats]

@ Let’s do it!

[@MackB40]

Great first 2025 vid! You and Amber, lots of buns, and a sprayin pickle. 😂 Hey, stay safe with this ❄️y weather!

[@EliLessig]

Thanks buddy, stay safe out there!

[@davidgoodman6924]

The two girls were adorable, reminded me of my two kids when they were little. Great win Eli!!

[@EliLessig]

Thank you, they are so cute at that age!

[@angelh1608]

What a wonderful video! Those girls are precious!!! Best audience ever!! God bless!! ❤❤❤❤

[@EliLessig]

Thank you, they were adorable! God bless 🙌

[@happycampa9622]

Well done!! It was a very family wholesome video amongst all the eating but food does taste better that way 🥰

[@EliLessig]

You know what they say, food tastes best with good company. 😉

[@nickzimonja3382]

Love your videos! I've done so many things like this before there was youtube. I'm glad you can show the people what you can do. Eating 7- 10 pounds of food isn't always easy

[@EliLessig]

Thank you and it's definitely not even though so many say it's easy!

[@peterroland5938]

🎉 yummy looking desserts. The burger looks super tasty. Great job on the win. What a pair of cutie pies.

[@EliLessig]

This was a wonderful time all around, delicious food and great people!

This was a fun time and a great challenge!

[@interestingtimes6439]

Hi Eli - That bread was Nasty. But you powered through. Congrats on another Victory. Thanks for the video. Really liked the drone footage.

[@EliLessig]

Thank you very much, the bread was tough! Glad I got the victory!

[@geoffmckenzie2608]

Hilarious interplay between you and your wife. Such a giggly little thing she is when drinking. Reminds me of Beard's sister. 😂 Solid Win, Eli.

[@EliLessig]

😆 Thank you very much 🙏

[@HabsMike25]

Way to go Eli! That was very impressive. Happy New Year to you. All the best to you in 2025. Hope we get to see you to come to here in Canada & do a few challenges this coming year

[@EliLessig]

I would love to! Thank you for the support and happy New Year!

[@4seasonsbbq]

Hands down, if there's bread involved, there's mayo involved. If Brandon is watching, not Miracle Whip. Great video, Eli. Keep up the great work, my friend.

[@EliLessig]

Thank you very much and I do like mayo over miracle whip!

[@PB-oj6jd]

Great video Eli. I can’t believe you had bread pudding after all that hamburger bun. Haha.

[@EliLessig]

After a challenge like this something sweet is all I want!

[@donsmith3737]

That challenge looked good but that dessert... looked awesome! Great job, Sir.

[@EliLessig]

Thank you very much 🙏

[@Raldo5150]

The bread were like manhole covers. Congratulations on the challenge!!

[@EliLessig]

It was definitely a challenge getting that bread down! Thank you 🙏

[@samcook_food]

That lack of bun almost stopped your fun before it begun. But this is a legendary challenge! I’m glad it was worth the wait! A little surprised that the buns were tough despite being freshly made or acquired, but what’s a giant burger challenge without way too much chewy bread? Was expecting most of the time to be taking up by bread (with or without mayo), and I knew it would be good if it was on Man vs Food. Wasn’t expecting the pickle explosion though. That’s a new one 😅 Great job finishing in just over 30 min, and congratulations on the win!! 🎉 Good luck with the other challenges if you get a team together (know you know a lot of talented folks), and enjoy your highly recommended dessert 🍪

[@EliLessig]

I feel like it happened for a reason, we got to meet that wonderful family and the food was just as good. I do believe we could make a great 4 person team and do the 25lb burger!

[@stevenbinger704]

What's happening Bud I hope your having a wonderful New Year. I'm having a cup of coffee for you. Have a good day brother. How cute we're those little ones

[@EliLessig]

Thank you buddy, I appreciate it! Happy New Year to you too! We're tucked away and staying out of the snowstorm!

[@LidlRaccoon]

The footage of the city was epic! The glass pyramid of bass.

[@EliLessig]

It's a very fun place and I didn't even add the footage of us on Beale Street!

[@jamessheets6604]

Congratulations Eli! 2 pounds of bread and you made it look so easy. It was great seeing you and Amber’s interactions!

[@EliLessig]

Thank you, I appreciate it! It was a fun time and Amber was a great sport, we always have a blast together!

[@Grillers9]

Congratz. those two kids, wow, so cute. at a fair I had to eat a bread sandwich due to being late, mom brought us sandwiches and the meat had to be tossed. so I actually went and got some mayo and ketchup and relish and put on the bread to make it more filling, damn it was good. so ya mayo on bread works. hope you had a nice New Years and have a blessed week.

[@EliLessig]

They are great! I prefer mayo but grew up with miracle whip. Love it with bacon! We hope you're having a wonderful New Year and thank you for the support 🙏

The poutine gravy to get the bread down!!!! Or that pickle juice 👀-that was crazy!! Great job but wondering if fries should be made if not required such a waste 🤷🏻‍♀️

Great ideas and I would much rather have an order of onion rings!

💜🍀 if you place a second plate on top of the burger and flip it over, the top bun will be less dry and the bottom bun will be less wet.

@@EliLessig A touch louder on the intro music with more bass. 10 seconds more drone shots of the venue. Tiny outro with something like the cute young people in the middle of this vid to keep viewers interested. Again I'm no pro, just a viewer, but a few tiny tweaks will get you there. Of course I am just a humble viewer but I see patterns. Also quarks like the lady having a few sangrias is perfect. Much love Eli. I'll be watching tomorrow. NICE WIN!
