This guy is amazing. I grew up in Southern Colorado and Northern New Mexico and spent a lot of my early years in Mexico. I never met anyone who could do what he did. In Oaxaca fried insects are a popular food item. I wonder how he would do if insects were the protein ingredient in tacos. Probably gobble them down!
I would left like a $200 dollar tip after this. The staff and the owner or manager killed it. The food looks amazing. I hope the business thrives my friends.
They came for the plates and he said they didn't need to. He didn't realize they needed the plates to serve other customers. The hoarder of plates he is. 😂😂
You can tell when you are feeling great and all about a challenge because you come in super happy and motivated. There’s been challenges in the past where you clearly looked like you weren’t feeling well. Great job for keep soldering on.
The owner got nervous 3 tacos in, ha ha. He found the place people don't know him, lucky. I like how complimentary Joel is about the food as he proceeds to vacuum it up, lol.
@@korlu01 bet the owner wasn’t expecting to have to pay him, then he was probably like “oh no now we have to pay him AND he gonna eat all the food we got left we need to sell to make this money back” lololol
Been watching for years and I honestly believe Joel never gets full, and his lust for food has totally taken over his life. He uses the challenges as a way to fuel his addiction to food. It was never a challenge.
Now I need some tacos and rice and beans! The closest authentic Mexican restaurant is about 6 miles away, and we usually go to restaurants on the weekend. Now I've got days to wait--thank you, Joel! The restaurant employees and owner and the food were fantastic!
@Lilpinkvelvet You are correct. Joel is more than a competitive eater, he's one hell of a smart businessman. Like you implied, that restaurant owner knew exactly what he was getting for his money!
Or the person betting knows full well Joel will crush it and talk good about their food for cheap advertising. It works, there are a couple places near me that Joel has been that I will check out when possible!
I’m always impressed by Joel’s culinary knowledge and mastery of the vocabulary. I don’t think there’s any food challengers on TH-cam that immerse themselves in this subject. Impressive !!
I’ve watched you for the past year and you’re probably the most likable person doing food challenges. For one, you obliterate challenges, and 2….the food you eat looks SO DAMN GOOD lol
Love that these establishments are sharing delicious food culture across all these different countries and doing them justice. While also incorporating local tastes and flavors. Makes me warm inside that we can all be brought together on passion and love of delicious food.
He is still young… it’s scary when it catch up to him and his hospital bill will be a quarter million… but he is from Canada and they give free health care
So funny - Joel can size up the task at hand based on his vast experience and you can tell he KNEW he would with relative ease meet and beat 45+ tacos well within a 90 minute time limit. Still it’s cool when he heaps praise on establishment owners for putting out great food!
The owner definitely knew you could beat it he just you're the best advertisement money can buy and he got it dirt cheap by getting you in there!! Win-win for everybody
@@Fulforce you would think but most of my viewers are from the Philippines... Unless you have access to Joel Hanson's TH-cam studios then you won't know who his target audience is reaching 🤷
I could only eat one or a half of one due to gastric by pass surgery but I sure love tacos. Hard corn shell chicken or beef the hotter the better. Go Joel....44 the magic number!!

I was doing a search for barbecue restaurants near Dallas one day and stumbled across Joel's video for cousin's BBQ. I watched the video which is the first one from Joel, and I have been going there ever since. Everyone there knows me by name now. It all started with Joel.
Joel just eats and eats and buy the time he is actually full he ate enough food to fill 20 people. That man is amazing. Look at that healthy skin and fit physic. He look so amazing and yet he eats like that!! He must be in the gym 6 days a week. And must eat protien shakes and salad in between his chalenges. But even so, how the hell does he eat all he eats every chalenge!! He's a beast! We love you Joel. ❤
Joel has nearly a million fallowers. $500 is a steal for the advertisement that this video will get if you ask me. & the way Joel kept having magic moments every time he tried a new flavor, I’m interested 😵💫✨🌮
@@samiam5699occasional travel has no correlation to continuous and consistent business. What percentage of his followers do suspect travels to Thailand?
The variety of different taco's was amazing and they did look great ! The different sauces was also a plus. You surely looked like you enjoyed them and loved the " angelic" music as usual as you know Joel says it's out of this world good ! I hope ... you got your "Baht" reward for that feat. Thailand is one of my favorite places to visit, along with Peru. I hope you get to visit Peru one day as the food is AMAZING !! Thanks again for a great time.
Great job! I once lived in Colorado and the food was so much more authentic than what I can get in Connecticut. Fresh house made tortillas are the game changer
The first plates looked proportional after that it looked like they started maxing out the taco stuffing. I like how he is not even trying hard like he is acting that he doesn't want to scarf them all down in minutes.
💛 There's no more time friends !! 😊 SALVATION PRAYER...🥳. Dear God I am a sinner and in need of a savior. I acknowledge your son Jesus Christ, who shed his blood, died on the cross and was raised on the third day. I repent. Will you please forgive me of my sins. I forgive those that have sinned against me. Lord Jesus I ask you to come into my heart, live your life in me. From this moment on I am yours. Thank you for giving me forgiveness.

“Ground beef doesn’t belong in tacos…” do you agree 🤔?
@@JoelHansen highly disagree the stupidest stuff I heard all day maybe week you know what month 😂
Disagree
All ingredients are good in tacos ! Texas we love beef in our tacos but also appreciate good seafood on the shells or tortillas flat too
I agree the ground beef should not be in tacos, but steak tacos do belong in a taco
Ground beef absolutely belongs in tacos along with a bunch of other meats!!
I am a proud Mexican hearing how much he cares about his food
Easy Work 🙌🏾🔥
