This 10LB BBQ CHALLENGE HAS NEVER BEEN COMPLETED | $100 'Smoke in The Hole' BBQ Challenge

[@JoelHansen]

WHICH WOULD YOU CHOOSE? 1. Jalapeno Mac Cheese 2. Normal Mac & Cheese

[@shanl1932]

Jalapeno!!!

[@steel19812]

Both as long as they're homemade.

[@darlenejones-nelson813]

Normal Mac n cheese

[@matthewbush2371]

Greens

[@matthewbush2371]

Normal cheese not jalapeno

[@faba6753]

You should always have that guy in the background. I love his reactions to you killing this meal. Hilarious.

[@Kristina-cv7dg]

Yes. And his shirt said ICON. Nice 👍

[@wearytrader535]

I almost feel like he chooses who's in his background? I've noticed so much consistency when it comes to the "guy in the background"

[@Clearanceman2]

Joel is so enthusiastic and looks so fit, I think people that don't know him have no idea of his ability to eat huge quantities of food quickly.

[@HellonearthlABB]

@@wearytrader535 they are all black?

[@wearytrader535]

@@HellonearthlABB No. There's consistency in the fact that there's someone in the background, the same person, for like 60-90% of the video.

You've got to love a chef who radiates pride when talking about his food 😊 If anyone is going to make vegan food look and taste convincing and delicious, it's going to be people from the Caribbean - no doubt! 🥰

[@Deadlyaunty]

Completely agree ❤❤❤❤

[@susansullivan7913]

I love all your challenges but especially enjoyed watching this plant based one! Loved your descriptions and seeing/hearing the chef! Hope to see you do more vegan/vegetarian challenges!!

[@waynestock9990]

i have zero doubt joel will destroy this challenge

Holy cow, Joel! No! This is ridiculous!

[@waynestock9990]

I would have a hard time with just the salads. Keep up the great work!!!

[@ceebee8042]

So is this more healthy than meat even though it tastes just like meat?

[@trevorcolby786]

Yes definitely like to see the tee shirts. And the inside of the restaurant. I like seeing them preparing the meal challenge

[@L.T75]

Joel I think you should host your own food travel show. You are really good at describing food which you are passionate about its not all about just a straight food challange with you. 😊

Definitely show off the shirts! Not only is it like a trophy/reward for yourself, it also promotes the restaurants and generally they have awesome designs! Secondly, I wish you had your own TV show. You do the food justice with your commentary. Thank you for that and thank you for the videos! Keep crushing it Joel!

Love so much that you're open to trying stuff like this, if it tastes good it tastes good man, if nothing has to die for it, even better

[@JoelHansen]

thanks !

[@WalkingPaceWP]

Real meat all the way.

[@chrisfrench9257]

The amount of animals killed to produce your veg is far more than simply eating live stock we raise ourselves. The meat is also far more nutrient dense and nearly 100% bioavailable because all our bodies have to do is absorb it whereas we have to convert plant matter into an absorbable form, creating waste, thus a reduced bioavailability for the nutrients they provide, which isn't nearly as impressive as beef or other forms of red meat.

[@chrisphallheatlover9848]

I have never seen joel fail a food challenge, easy win for this man, Congrats joel 👏

[@JBC_cat]

What a cool restaurant. I wanna try it! Grats on chowing down all that food in under a half hour. YOU ARE A BEAST!

[@timscott178]

those ribs looked so good -i'd love to try all those

[@phil4986]

Bravo Joel. Plant based meat substitute tends to be much denser than actual meat with little moisture inside. This much meat substitute must have been a real challenge especially considering the very short time. But what a fantastic plate of food. Just beautiful. Congrats to Joel on killing it way ahead of time. I am in the seventh day of a fast for health reasons, so this was like I was eating it with you, every bite. I think I gained five pounds just watching. But it was worth it.

[@sarahlynch3]

Well done Joel you always make it look easy!

[@ripster8766]

I’ve never seen Joel loose. I wonder when the last time was? He’s a machine! Great job as always and keep up the good work!

[@robertmiller5789]

I prefer animal foods over vegan copy cats. Animal foods are loaded with nutrition. Vegan mimic meats are basically Frankenstein foods with paragraphs of chemical compounds in them if you have ever read the ingredients on plant based meats . Great job Joel on destroying another food challenge!

This looked really good! I'm definitely interested in trying more foods like this, so it's cool that you are doing challenges featuring non-traditional stuff like this. Thanks for all the great videos amigo!

I'm not a vegan but I have stopped eating dairy, as well as beef and pork, for health reasons. My struggle is always these plant based imitations, as I find many to taste kinda gross. Seeing this restaurant serve this kind of food up, and Joel giving it such a high recommendation, is truly inspiring to me in regards to trying more plant based substitutions in the future. Thanks for the video, Joel! Impressive as ever.

[@aprilcoursey4533]

I absolutely love when you do the vegan challenges! People can have similar flavors and textures without killing any of the animals we all love to look at, pet, and appreciate. Our fellow earthlings deserve for us to at least try to eat alternatives. Vegans usually can eat animal imitations because we do still have good memories of eating these foods with our families and friends growing up. Meat tastes good but we just love animals, and dislike the terrible cruelty the animals have to suffer being just a commodity for us to injest. Good work, Joel!

uhhmm they still will get killed cuz someone else will eat them :/
