What: The Kitchen Sink Sandwich
Where: Gatlin's BBQ
Come hungry if you want any hope of finishing this off-the menu special. The sloppy sandwich comes fully loaded with a crap ton of fiery housemade sausage and smoke-kissed brisket -- plus dirty rice, grilled onions and jalapeños, grated cheddar, and barbecue sauce.
What: The Fiddler on the Roof of Your Mouth

Where: Kenny & Ziggy's
Sure we could have gone with the 4-lb Zellagabetsky, but let's be honest, you're not Shaquille O'Neal, and you're not finishing two of the monstrosities along with two slices of cheesecake. (You're also probably not spending $65 to give the challenge a try).
The still-massive but totally doable Fiddler on the Roof (or the Number 1, as you are meant to order it) is probably more your speed. The triple decker ($18.95 with a side) comes mountain high with meltingly-tender pastrami and corned beef, but add coleslaw and Russian dressing to really take it over the top.
What: The Hot Fried Chicken Sammich

Where: H-Town Streets
Be ready to put in some work, because this two-hander ($8) comes with a piece of fried bird that's bigger than the massive bun itself. The crisp, golden chicken gets doused in hot sauce and stuffed inside with the usual suspects (lettuce, tomato, and pickles); then the whole thing gets finished with a healthy smear of spicy mayo. Make sure you grab napkins for this one.
