Shulas and 48 oz steak..

[Maliki2]

I'm a die hard Dolphins fan...to get the football would be a dream. Now heres the question...anyone here finished the 48oz steak? How hard is it? I'm a light-medium eater, and well I would do almost anything to get the bonus.
So sound off if you have eaten this thing...how big is it?

I thought for finishing the steak you got your name on the plaque on the wall. I know the cost of the football is over $100 to purchase after you've made it into the 48 oz club.

To purchase the football menu, it's over $300.

We usually get the 22 ounce cowboy steak and thats pretty big.

From what I understand it is huge and very hard to do. You may want to starve for a couple of days before trying it.

Go to the grocery store and find a 3 pound roast. That will be the size of this steak.

The recommended serving size for meat is 3-4 oz (about the size of a deck of cards). Now, I know that you will never find a steak that small in a restaurant, and most of us will eat double that size even when preparing food at home - however, a 48 oz. steak is the equivalent of 12-16 portions of the "recommended serving size", not to mention that works out to 3 full pounds of meat. There may be some big eaters out there who are able to manage that much food, but IMHO it is way too much for one person to attempt to eat in one sitting.

We were at Disney last week. We hadn't made a reservation for a dinner every night and one night we were sick of burgers, etc and decided to find a restaurant to eat in. An Impossible feat with the free dinning. Shula's was our last choice as we had never heard of it. Anyways we got our last choice. Wow! It was incrediable to say the least. The service amazing. we had 3 small kids with us and they were very accomadiating to that! The food was the best our whole trip. We love to eat out and eat well and boy did they surpass our expectations! It will diffently be on our list of "must eat at"next year.
On another note we try to eat at one really nice restaurant per trip to celebrate our anniversary, usually the California Grill. this year we decided to do the Yachtsman Steak House as we were in the BCV and it was convenient. It was our worst and most expenscie mistake of the trip. The Sevice was HORRIBLE. The steaks were not cooked to our specificatians, My husband orderd medium well and it came RARE! Our meals had to be sent back to cook more. The presentation was nothing more then a blob of brown on a plate. No vegetable or nothing for colour. Kids meal also did not come with a vegi! I had the warm chocalte cake for dessert. I'm a huge chocolate fan and there was nothing chocolate about it. It was so bad I couldn't swallow the first bite and had to spit it out! If you knew us you would know it had to be bad for us to complain as we normally just shrug or shoulders and say oh well won't do that again, but this was so much money and so bad!
Shulas made up for it and we highly recommend it to anyone

When I took my parents to WDW last year, my dad finished the whole thing. I have pictures of it at home (at work now). I will try and figure out how to post them tonight.

I have to say it was huge. My dad ate all of it AND ate the huge baked potato he ordered too. I honestly think he took it as a challenge.
