Description
Nobody does meatballs like Martoranos, which makes this a competitive eating event like no other. Get ready to witness 15 of the nations top competitors in action at the Martoranos Masters Meatball Eating Contest, sanctioned by Major League Eating and the International Federation of Competitive Eaters.
1 ranked eater and three-time 4th of July hot dog champion Joey Jaws Chestnut will be among the competitors attempting to eat their way to $3,000 in cash prizes.
The 10-minute contest will feature world-famous meatballs prepared by chef/owner Steve Martorano. In an effort to fully honor and respect Martoranos meatballs, competitors must use utensils during the contest, a stipulation that will further test the skill of the eating professionals.
I am very excited to host the Martoranos Masters Meatball Eating Championship at my restaurant in Las Vegas, said Steve Martorano. The competitors will be eating one of the worlds best meatballs so they might even slow down to enjoy the taste.
It all happens Sunday, November 8 at noon at Martoranos inside Rios Masquerade Village.
If watching other people eat makes you hungry, reserve your own feast at Martoranos by calling 702-777-7740.
