Gentleman Joe Does It Again!

Gentleman Joe Menchetti captures Long Island Roast Beef Title and establishes new standard for Roast Beef Sandwiches by consuming an awesome 7.5 Sandwiches in only 6 Minutes. At the first Annual Roasty’s Long Island Roast Beef Eating Championship. Joe’s victory was never in doubt after the first minute of the six minute contest. GJoe got off to a quick one sandwich lead and never looked back.

In second place was Dominic “The Doginator” Cardo and Chris “The American” Schlesinger with a respectable 5.5 sandwiches each. In third place was Arnold “The Beef Terminator” Goldstein from Oceanside NY with 5.0 Sandwiches. . Honorable Mention goes to Shelby “The S Express” Tancer and 18 year old Tim “The Tank” Lagudi and Phillip “Never full” Hoffman who ate a respectable 4.5 sandwiches apiece. They were closely followed by by Ian “The Gobbler” Goldberg who downed four sandwiches. Other finishers of note were Angelo “Beef Baron” Amendolare (3.75) and Nick “The Nut” Romanelli (3.5), Dan “Just Dan” Marshall (3.0).

Bernie Fiedler, the eldest participant, apparently misunderstood that he was in a Competitive Eating contest and thought the event was a Senior outing. Bernie managed to eat one of the delicious Roast Beef Sandwiches with no regrets. The things that some people will do for a delicious Roasty’s Roast Beef Sandwich !

Kudos to Patrick  "The Human Garbage Disposal" Valencia, Jim "the Beef" Saridis and Angelo "Monga" Monilettc for participating -they learned it isn't as easy as it looks!


Congrats to Tina Sharkey for winning the 'guess the number of sandwiches eaten' contest and to all the winners of the Roasty's Roast Beef trivia contest.
