Last month, Adam Richman of the Travel Channel’s “Man v. Food” came down to Richmond in search of revolutionary cuisine. Tonight, Richmonders will get to see what great local food he found.
"Man v. Food" is a reality television series where Richman explores "big food" offerings of different cities before facing off in an eating challenge at a local restaurant.
Tonight's episode will feature a number of popular Richmond restaurants.
From The Travel Channel:
Adam hits up Richmond’s famous Buz and Ned's Real BBQ for the best BBQ in Richmond. Buz and Ned’s Real BBQ is famous for their hickory and oak smoked spareribs slathered in sweet and sour BBQ sauce -- a real Richmond legend.
Next, Adam visits Black Sheep where the sandwiches are not subs, but a fleet of battleships! Adam chooses to eat the incredible USS Brooklyn in honor of his hometown in New York. Weighing in at two and a half pounds, this two-foot long sandwich is loaded with peach chutney, an entire pound of jerk chicken, homemade slaw, and a roasted banana ketchup.
Finally, Adam stops by Caliente to take on the Stupid Wings Challenge: eight jumbo wings drenched in a sauce so spicy, that it is just stupid to eat! The sauce is a concoction of cayenne habanero, pure chili extract, and a secret inferno marinade from the “container of pure judgment.” Can Adam conquer the unbelievable Stupid Wings Challenge?
To see more of Richmond and the lucky people in the restaurants, be sure to watch the all-new episode of “Man v. Food” tonight at 9 p.m. on the Travel Channel.
