The newer of the two challenges at the 1950's American Diner in Church Gresley is a comfort food mountain. A 3.4kg heap of mac and cheese comes topped with hot honey fried chicken tenders and two sweet homemade waffles, about 4kg in all. You've got 40 minutes, and the diner rates it as the harder of its two challenges.
What you'll be eating
3.4kg of mac and cheese with 500g of hot honey fried chicken tenders and two homemade sweet waffles.
What you win
Finish within 40 minutes and the £40 meal is free, plus a winner's T-shirt and a photo on the wall of fame.
Strategy tips
Mac and cheese sets firm as it cools, so get through the bulk of it early while it's hot and save the waffles for last.
