Recently discovered and posted on twitter by Homesick Texan…a remarkable accomplishment in Texas cuisine has been achieved!

The Cowtown Diner in Fort Worth has been serving the worlds largest chicken fried steak platter called the “Full O Bull” consisting of a TEN POUND steak along with SIX POUNDS of mashed potatoes and TEN SLICES of Texas toast. This monster of a meal is offered at $70 bucks, although if you attempt to eat and finish this on your own the entire meal its on the house. The “Full O Bull” comes in at a mere 10,000 calories..which is nearly an entire weeks worth of calories!

Further details from the Cowtown Diner website:
“Branded as the world’s largest chicken fried steak, this 64oz, gravy-slathered slab of tenderized top round runs $70, or $.00 if you actually take it down solo. Ordering a day in advance is required, as the beast takes 45 minutes to prepare, starting with whole milk-bound breading that requires the chef to roll the meat up like a carpet to flip; then it’s off to a flat grill for a hot-oil splash bath, a searing session aided by a steel pizza shovel, and a 10-min convection-oven bake to ensure even cooking, because inconsistency at bite #78 would totally derail your mojo. Including the XL pizza pan it’s served on, the finished protein planet weighs 9lbs and measures 14in in diameter; to up the ceremony, the chef and a procession of servers actually carry it like the Ark of the Covenant to your table, good practice for when they later carry you out in a casket”
