2019 Super Duper Cheesesteak Challenge is Underway

All of the area Submarine House locations have started the Super Duper Cheesesteak Challenge for the year.

It is simple – Are you hungry?  Do you like to help charities?  Then we have the challenge for you that is all fun and no fail.  It is a win-win because proceeds of the contest go to the Pink Ribbon Girls charity that helps local women affected by breast cancer.

The contest is basically this- Eat a Super Duper 16 inch Cheesesteak in under 16 minutes and it is free, and you get a shirt.  Here is a Food Adventure you can sink your teeth into.

If you fail,. you don’t get refunded for the sub, but either way all benefits go to the Pink Ribbon Girls.

THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT THE CONTEST:

PHASE 1 THE QUALIFYING ROUND

— The Contest and Qualifier phase started March 11th, and  goes until to May 12th 2019 – so make sure you get in there on or  before May 12th.

— If you want to participate, when you come in, you must let them know upon ordering your food

— An employee of Submarine House will time you. Your goal will be to beat the challenge time of 16 minutes and be in the top 10 fastest times at that store.

— You must eat a 16 inch Super Duper Cheesesteak with the works in 16 minutes or less – no substituting or deletion of toppings.  You have to eat the sub “as is” on the bun.   This means , triple the meat, triple the cheese, mayo, mushroom, onions, lettuce, tomato, and hot relish.  If you do it, you will get the sub free and a special T Shirt.
