Background

The documentary follows three members of the competitive eating community. The program documents the training and one stop is at J&R’s Steakhouse in Long Island. The restaurant gives eaters one hour to eat a 76 ounce steak and one portion of a side order: the meal for free if they can accomplish the task.[3][4] The show also follows eaters in other states who compete eating crawfish, hot dogs and pancakes.[5]

The documentary also introduces International Federation of Competitive Eating founders Richard and George Shea and details their efforts to establish eating as a sport. A second installment of Gutbusters, about the IFOCE in Alaska, also ran on Discovery Channel. The show featured: “Hungry” Charles Hardy, Dale Boone and “Crazy Legs” Conti.[6]

The documentary, produced by Original Productions, features Edward "Cookie" Jarvis, Don Lerman and Kevin Lipsitz[7]
