Major League Eating competitor James Webb, who is from Australia, visited Dallas-Fort Worth restaurant The Aussie Grind Provisions to take down a stack of meat pies. On Saturday, Dec. 16, 2023, Webb scarfed 37 meat pies in 36 minutes and 22 seconds.
Together, the meat pies weighed 12.25 pounds.
The 34-year-old is among the top five competitive eaters in the world. One of his recent records was downing 59.5 glazed donuts in eight minutes in summer 2023. He went on to eat 276 chicken wings in 12 minutes in September 2023 at a wing-eating championship in New York. (If that number sounds shockingly high, Webb agrees: “If you told me this yesterday, I would have laughed in your face. I’m so shocked right now,” he told a Buffalo-area news source.)
Webb is currently the world record holder for eating the most doughnuts and wings in history.
“This is tough, man,” he said after about 30 minutes of eating meat pies in Farmers Branch. In the video below, Webb ends the stunt with a relatable groan:
“Ugh.”
