Could you finish this breakfast in half an hour?

brimal · 15-10-2013 10:18PM

Furious Pete would do this with ease

PizzamanIRL · 15-10-2013 10:23PM

Yes and then I'd swallow the €13.95.

It's all plain sailing up until the chips, that's where the carb sweats will start to kick in.

I'd just pay the 13.95 though because it's a good deal, you'd probably be looking at a tenner for an average size fry in places like Bewleys

Normal size fry in that pub is €7.50

Gonzo · 15-10-2013 10:25PM

the deal breaker is the mushrooms and eggs

Great selection for the mini breakfast, any idea how much the full Irish is?:D

Heartburn for a decade after that breakfast.

Just saw this thread on Breaking News. Basically, Murphy's Law bar in Athlone challenges folks to eat the following in less than 30 minutes...

- Four slices of brown bread
- Four rashers
- Four sausages
- Four (big) cuts of black pudding, four of white
- Four fried eggs
- Four grilled tomato halves
- Four hash browns
- A Bowl of beans
- At least half a bag of chips
- Fried mushrooms
- Tea & Biscuit

Do you think you'd be able? :P

No. I have never eaten black or white pudding and just the thought of it is puke worthy.

Without it, I could probably make a double-decker egg, sausage, rasher, mushroom sandwich to try and shave (giggle) time but the bowl of beans, tea, tomatoes, hash browns, chips AND biscuit pushes this into impossible territory.

What about this one fromprofitable tro cork

* 8 Horgan’s Irish sausages

* 6 smoked rashers

* 6oz sirloin steak

* 4 hash browns

* 4 slices of Clonakilty black and white pudding

* 2 fried eggs

* 2 scrambled eggs

* 2 bowls of chips

* 3 fried tomatoes

* 1 bowl of baked beans

* 1 bowl of sauteed mushrooms

* 1 bowl of fried onion rings

* 6 slices of toast

* 3 slices of soda bread

* All washed down with a bucket of tea or coffee

* The monster breakfast is €29.95, but is free if you finish it.

Not only a near perfect retardation test but a profitable one.

Respect.

Would love to try something like this once. Pack as much into a sandwich, dipping in the beans and sipping the tay would be the strategy.

Thinking about the Heartattack Grills burgers and meals in Nevada, all fun and games until a fella had a heart attck in the place and then upped and died.

Still fun and games there, they have the man's ashes on display in the restaurant.:eek:

'cremains' is a hideous portmanteau.

Yes.
Alas the trip to the jacks the next day would be horrific. An epidural might be necessary.

Maybe I'm just paranoid but those two end rashers look like they're communicating with one another.

Overheal · 16-10-2013 12:59AM

I'm an American, that contest is in trouble.

unkel · 16-10-2013 01:07AM

I'd say I'd have a fair chance of finishing the Athlone breakfast. As long as I could have it at around 5PM?

Some Americans I know would call that breakfast a starter !

Overheal · 16-10-2013 01:14AM

Man, I miss rashers

Eathrin · 16-10-2013 01:16AM

I think I'll give it a go when I visit Athlone in the near future. I reckon I could do it no bother.

Mysteriouschic · 16-10-2013 01:53AM

I don't think I'd even finish that breakfast and I hate beans , mushrooms and the puddings. I'd be full fairly quickly I don't eat too much in the morning .

pharmaton · 16-10-2013 02:16AM

I could probably do it over 24 hours chewing slowly, I have amazing eating skills

COYVB · 16-10-2013 03:11AM

if they doubled up on the white pudding instead of having black, then i'd say i'd be able to put that away in about 20 minutes

McDermotX · 16-10-2013 09:10AM

Why am I seeing chips as part of these breakfasts ??

Chips have no business on a breakfast plate. Chuck them out, followed swiftly by the beans. Ridiculous.

force eleven · 16-10-2013 09:23AM

Yeah, probably could, but what type of brown bread is the question? If its the brown 'cake' bread, forget it, that's pure filler material right there.

...and if you succeed you get the breakfast for free or else you've got to shell out €13.95 for it.

Only one person has succeeded thus far but I'm pretty confident I could make that #2 to be honest...can't be that hard.

Do you think you'd be able? :P

I think I could probably do it.

I have zero desire to try though.

2 stroke · 16-10-2013 10:27AM

Can I leave the fat off the rashers, I'm trying to lose weight.

inforfun · 16-10-2013 10:45AM

I wouldnt be able too.
I refuse to eat black and/or white pudding.

Never tried it but if it only tastes half as bad as i think it looks, i ll throw up.

Replace it with sausage of my own choice and i would give it a go.

SCOOP 64 · 16-10-2013 10:52AM

Id give it a go, if i couldn't do it, then i would get my other half to finish, then bill only €6.95 each,wouldn't be bad for a big breakfast for us both.

I dont like tea

Yamanoto · 16-10-2013 11:19AM

I think what I'd find particularly difficult (apart from the sheer volume of grub), is that you could be guaranteed everything on that platter would be of very low quality - sausage with the consistency of brain, rashers that produce an excess of that white gunk, pudding as succulent as carpet-tile etc etc.

MonstaMash · 16-10-2013 12:14PM

If it was the morning after a motorcycle rally...no problem...bring it on

Tar.Aldarion · 16-10-2013 03:20PM

athlone one doesnt look to hard for me, ive eaten more at christmas but i certainly wouldnt want to do it.

Could you finish this breakfast in half an hour?
