MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! What are you eating for Christmas?

Can we all appreciate this man just ate 2 weeks worth of calories in one sitting! Boston is my home town and you killed it. 2 bad you were not there longer and enjoyed some great seafood. Safe travels friend. 😁😁😁😁😁

Even a stomach injury can't keep Joel down, crushed it!! Awesome job with the challenge!! 👑

Dude looked so stressed out that you finished. Lol I don’t think you were supposed to be able to do that in their minds. 😂😂😂😂😂

I was born and raised in the Boston area. As a child, my parents would take me to the North End to get freshly baked Italian bread and go to the fish market. I hope you had fun and enjoyed your time there Joel. It really is a beautiful place.

His capacity and speed is on another level. Next to Killer and Molly

Joel: I'm not feeling very well, got some kind of pulled muscle on my side....then proceeds to absolutely crush 12 lbs of food....your capacity to eat is off the charts!!!!

every personal trainer: you cannot out-exercise a bad diet Joel Hansen: hold my beer

I don't think I'm going to be worried until I see a video titled: "Deep Fried 1993 Geo Metro." Good job.

Welcome to Mass and well done! Sorry about the injury, torso injuries are no joke. I wish I knew you were here for this one! I always love a reason to visit eagles deli. The rumor I heard was the town of Brighton told the Deli they couldn’t make the challenge bigger and that’s why it has stayed the 11-12lbs. In any event it’s a wicked huge challenge that doesn’t need to be any bigger! As for Boston food challenges, I actually don’t think there are many. You could reach out to Geoff to see what he thinks. You might be better teaming up with him and doing a few challenges at his place lol. I’m not sure if it’s back yet but I highly recommend trying to visit the Chocolate bar, an all you can eat chocolate buffet at the Langham hotel. You would crush it! Glad you loved our little city. It has given me 25+ years of amazing memories! There really is no where else like our corner of the country! Great video tour of the city. You did a great job for never visiting before. I am so glad you got to witness a classic bum fight at the Irish Famine Memorial. No one has better bum-fights than Boston! Man, I wish I could have given you a real tour of the city. We have more history than any other city in the country, and you didn’t even begin to scratch the surface!!! Next time! I hope they didn’t ticket you! They are evil vultures downtown, waiting at meters to ticket the second your time ends. Pure evil in my book. Thanks for an epic video! I hope you and yours have a Merry Christmas! 🎄 be well 🙏

Despite your injury, you still slayed the huge challenge! Very impressive Joel! Merry Christmas!

Omg I missed you! Eagles Deli is the jam! Hope you enjoyed Boston!

MAD RESPECT for knocking out this one!

Looks delicious but I would blow up after just eating 2 patties and a handful of fries. Merry Xmas Joel 🎄

Oh my goodness I hope you're going to be okay please take care of yourself I support your channel no matter what

These challenges you do just keep getting so insane!

Bro! You were in my neck of the woods! Nice. Haven't started the video yet, but I have a feeling you crushed this.

Vegetables, or salad as we call it in Australia, for sure. A nice crunch to break through the grease. What a machine you are!!

Ok, that look amazing. The fire 🔥 on the burgers 🍔, amazing. 🤤 🤤

I'm getting meat sweats just watching him eat all those patties. I can't imagine how he gets past that

When i was a kid in 1980 I went to Boston and realized how much it had in common with my Montreal. Also, I had awesome donuts made by a guy with a mobile deep fryer. 25 cents.

Merry Christmas Everyone! Joel was bored so He goes and eats 12 lbs of food. Great job bro!

I like the lettuce, tomatoes, and onion rings on my bacon cheeseburger.

LORDT the fries too😭😭😭 You’re the best Joel!!!!

I love how honest you are with these challenges. When something falls in your lap, you immediately recognize it and make sure it goes down with the rest of the challenge. ;)

I love tomatoes raw on a beef patty! Lettuce, too. This was a ridiculous challenge. I don't know how you do it. You are the man. Enjoy life, bro!

You take all the fun out of it when you narrate. Merry merry, and happy happy.

The way u pronounce “Massachusetts” is just adorable

Hell yeah! Joel had his breakfast... now he's looking for some nice lunch probably 🤣🤣 Oh, I do like veggies on my burgers

How does that cheese look so good? 😍 Also, 4k hype! Christmas gift to us all.

That owner was like " damn he finished it" 🤣🤣

Bostonian here, and so great to see you visiting! I made a new drinking game. Drink every time you call something "old" lol.

So nice to see you in my neck of the woods!! Can't wait to see you in person crush another record!!

I love your challenges bro, your by far one of the best out there!!

Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones. I just found you on you-tube and I am in awe how much you can quickly eat! I love veggies!

Enjoyed your trip around Boston, my home town. Living here all my life I forget how much history took place there. Point of interest, that last cemetery you showed has several famous people buried there including Mother Goose. In the background at the waterfront were the masts of Old Ironside, the oldest commissioned ship in the U S Navy. Oh and congratulations on beating another challenge even though injured. You're amazing and Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄

I like my burgers with & without veg, but the main thing is I like some burg on my mayonnaise. Enough (Best Foods) mayo just can’t be applied to the bread/bun, so I like to fill a bowl with mayo & dip heavily into it. Heck, I love just plain mayo & Tabasco sandwiches, so it’s not a surprise that I pack the stuff on my burgs, dogs & pretty much every type of sandwich, especially tuna. Anyway,cool challenge.

you're a monster dude, happy holidays!

Dude, you totally ROCK! What another amazing accomplishment...congrats and Happy New Year! 🔥💯💪👏

Once again you never seem to amaze me Joel another one bites the dust 😂

Amazing buddy well done have a great Xmas thanks for all the great content brother

Absolutely Veggies 🥗 on the burger 🍔!!!Merry Christmas Joel!

Merry Christmas, Joel!! I like french fries but I agree with you, that was a monster pile if fries. Good job!

Merry Christmas all! Merry Christmas Joel!!

Man you smashed that cheese burger contest in Texas congrats 🏆 I knew you could handle this challenge keep up the good work and be safe Merry Christmas 🎁

Crazy challenge. I watched Furious Pete take it down but he was only on eight patties and he dunked. Watched Brandon do it, Miki Sudo now Joel. That tray of fries should be considered an offensive weapon. Hope you are on the mend Joel👍🍟🍟🍟🍟. Competitive eater you are...cameraman you are not😉😘 I got a headache inside the covered market with your wobblecam, zooming in and out and whizzing left and right. Still you cannot be brilliant at everything😉

Merry Christmas Joel 🎅

Very good job Mighty Joel! And yes I do love veggies on my burgers as well.!

When Adam Richman attempted the Eagle Challenge, it was about the same quantity of food (roughly 12 pounds) as it is now. Since he acknowledged in the episode that he couldn't eat it all, the challenge was to eat a greater weight of burger and fries than a morbidly obese former employee named Chuck. Richman consumed over seven pounds but lost by a single ounce.

That would last me 7 days of dinner that meal lol!!!

You are at it again Joel! I know you know you can beat the challenge!

Been eating here for years. I could never kill this challenge. But their burgers and fries are to die for.

Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Congrats on an amazing challenge win.

I definitely need lettuce and tomatoes on my burger 🍔

Joel, I hope you're feeling better. Enjoy your Christmas. That burger was crazy! It looked so good.

Merry Christmas Joel! Great job on the challenge. I hope you feel better soon. 🌲🎁❤

Merry Christmas Joel!!!! you are so awesome 👌 you always smash the challenge!!!

Amazng !All the best for Xmas Joel🥳

I’m catching up on all your videos since I’ve been busy. Long story short, I always have to be eating when watching your videos lmao 🤣

Dayumn, congrats on the huge W! It’s gonna be a long time before someone beats that.

I've been to Boston once and oddly enough stayed at the Marriot Wharf you filmed toward the end. Amazing town, cemeteries all throughout the downtown area. The skulls and wings on the tombstones were fascinating. I asked the porter about a good place to get a sandwich and he gave us directions. I'm from the South and couldn't understand him as his accent was so heavy, usually it is my accent that is heavy. The sandwich shop was just like the Seinfeld episode of the Soup Nazi, you needed to know exactly what you wanted when you reached the counter, otherwise it was "no soup for you."

Tell the bar to buy bulk 80/20 and patty it by hand!!!! Far superior

LOVED that you were able to kill the challenge, EAGLE'S DELI is awesome!! FASCINATING city tour as well, you are the best JOEL!!!!!

23:43 "This is some kind of a great big park." It's called Boston Common.

You are the most consistent food challenge contestant I’ve seen! You eat very clean and neatly. TY for sharing with us

Way to go Joel, congrats for finishing that huge meal challenge.

That was crazy!!! Insane burger challenge topped off with 5lbs of fries!!! Great video!

Thanks for the content. Happy Holidays bud

Their fries are amazing! Wish I knew you were in Boston! I would have dropped by to say hi!

Merry Christmas Jole one again I am impressed. Good job.

Yea yea you rocked this👑✊I don’t think they thought you would finish the challenge… giggling 🤭

Love the vids Joel

Amazing as always

Adam Richmond was Man vs. Food, the new host Casey, just is not the same! Great job Joel! One double cheeseburger would be enough for me.

Feel better Joel and Merry Christmas!

Did an amazing job on the challenge, but it was definite the beauty of Boston that got me! Absolutely beautiful! Hopefully you didn’t get a ticket. But thanks for going out of your way to show us the beautiful sights.

I am lol-ing at the two guys in the background

Oh my. I am from Boston. This is huge. Be careful. Merry Christmas all

I've been waiting for this one!!!!!!!!!

Looks like a fun trip! Lots to see.

I like how you threw the napkin down and said "Are you good guys?"😂

Awesome!!! You are the man!!!

#veggies hehe victory even with injury! MERRY CHRISTMAS JOEL! You’ve had an amazing year! Very successful and only just the start! Next year bigger and better! Hope you enjoy time with loved ones! Thanks for another year of sharing your adventures and travels! Love seeing the areas as well as the challenge! Cheers!

Definitely a veggie person!!! Still, that is an awesome feat, to consume all of that food! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! 🎄 🎄

Great vlog, Joel! Boston is indeed such an amazing city and wonderful tourist attraction with rich history in all aspects of life.

Sorry to all american fellows outthere but Joel is right, Boston is the most beautiful town to visit out there. Been a few times around the Quincy market and it's insane.

Unbelievable! Can’t be stopped!

You need your own show on TV

That was one of your best hands down buddy. Killed the contest combo!!!!

Merry Christmas Joel! Hope you have a wonderful and memorable day!
