British chef and restaurateur Tristan took more than four hours to make the gargantuan sandwich that stands at 1.2 feet high, is 24 inches wide and weighs in at over two stone.

For those brave enough to take on the challenge, it is estimated that it will take a whopping 10 hours to devour.

The massive snack was created to mark the launch of network’s show ‘Man Vs Food Nation’, the latest evolution of ‘Man Vs Food’.

The new show sees food enthusiast Adam Richman travel across the U.S. recruiting residents of the city he visits to take on daring food challenges.

Nick Thorogood, managing director of Food Network EMEA says: “We wanted to create a sandwich that embodies all the things that are at the heart of the Man Vs Food Nation series - big dishes, big flavours and big challenges! The World's Meatiest Sandwich is a truly epic creation and definitely a dish Adam Richman will be proud of.”

Re: Giant sandwich

A chap called Peter Dowdswell, who lives near me, is a multi-record holder for eating competitions. I'd be no good at that game, when my wife cooks a meal I have the main course at lunch and the sweet at tea-time.

Re: Giant sandwich

Oh Alan matey, that's no good - main meal and pudding together. By 'tea time' I'm ready for a plate of sarnies and a few biscuits or slice of cake.

Re: Giant sandwich

Geoff Ladd, I'm sure you'd have a great time on the end of that lol. I'm away to make our own Lunch now. Big plate of Home Made Soup and Tatties for The Laird, and a Tuna Sandwich for me.....Accompanied by a Latte of Course.

The sandwich will be my 'tea'.

Re: Giant sandwich

Where do you buy your Haggis from Uncle Joe ? We brought a lot back from Scotland which have now all gone.I've tried the supermarket Haggis but they're nowhere near as nice and I haven't seen any in the butchers round here.

Re: Giant sandwich
