April 19, 2019 By Dayton937 Leave a Comment

LLLLLets get ready for chomppinnnnnggg~ ! Spectators needed, and its all for charity.

Local Celebs will be tackling this 16 inch sub for charity

The Submarine House in co-ordination with Food Adventures Dayton is hosting an event on Saturday April 27th at 3pm.  Local celebs from all walks of life will be chewing for charity as they take the Super Duper Cheesesteak Challenge.  This is just a qualifier event to see if any of the local celebs can qualify for the store championship.

Money raised will benefit the Pink Ribbon Girls, from entry fees to a portion of all drinks and food bought during the event as well as straight up donations and a 50/50 raffle.

Dayton Most Metro and Dayton Dining are also partnering, and have EXCLUSIVE SCOOP on this extravaganza at the Centerville Submarine House at 503 Miamisburg Centerville Rd. 

Officer Steffano after seeing the 16inch super Duper Cheesesteak

—Admission for spectators is free,
2pm seating begins
3pm announcements
3:15pm contest shotgun start 

— A portion of food and drink bought during 2pm -5pm will go to Pink Ribbon Girls.

Can one of these celebs qualify for the store championship in May?

HERE ARE OUR CELEBRITY PARTICIPANTS:

1) KETTERING POLICE OFFICER MARK “THE ITALIAN STALLION” STEFFANO !
Used to keeping law and order, can one of Kettering’s finest “cuff” and tame the 16 inch Super Duper Cheesesteak?  Remember that means triple the cheese and triple the meat!  Can this Paisan meet the challenge?  Pride is on the line!

Mark will leave no crumbs in his beard !

 

2) THE REAL SANTA – MARK “THE BEARD” DAGROSSA:
The one and only real Santa in town, Mark is also a fixture at the Sons of Italy, and Italian Fall Festa handling cannoli.  He looks to handle the Super Duper Cheesesteak in under 16 minutes.  Also known for his work on the Gem City Podcast, Mark “The Beard” DaGrossa will be looking to beat the bun this year! We are grateful for his participation.

 

 

3) SENIOR CENTERVILLE FOOTBALL PLAYER, DECLAN “THE HUNGRY ELK” MASON:
Used to tackling dummies, can this player tackle a Super Duper Cheesesteak ?  Can this 18 year old stud intercept the 16 inches of heaven and beat the challenge?  The entire team should be there to support this Hungry Elk as we hand off of a sandwich with the works and triple the meat and cheese.

 

4) SONS OF ITALY “GARLIC CHAMP,” KEVIN SORICE:

The Garlic Champ


Used to eating garlic, organizing bocce ball and running the beer trucks at the Sons of Italy Fall Festa, Kevin is no stranger to the challenge.  He looks to improve his time in the “Senior division” of the competition.   A former college football player, he looks to size up the 16 inch sub.  Bad news for Kevin, there is no garlic on this cheesesteak.

 

Scott Halasz, Xenia Gazette Sportswriter

5) XENIA GAZETTE SPORTS and NEWS JOURNALIST, SCOTT HALASZ:
Local sports guru Scott Halasz
steps up to the challenge for charity and faces his first Super Duper Cheesesteak.  Can this journalist make headlines by beating the 16 inches with the works?   Look for him to have a secret strategy that may push him past the time limit with ease! We wish him luck and are excited to have him for this event.

 

6) GEM CITY ROLLER ATHLETE “ARCHANGEL ANARCHY”:
We expect elbows to be flying as this Gem City Roller Derby star attacks a Super Duper Cheesesteak. The only question is will she be wearing roller skates during the challenge?  She has 16 minutes to beat the challege and the sandwich with the works.  Used to speed and tough checks, this challenge is custom made for a hungry roller girl who is used to sandwiching her

Archangel Anarchy could kick a food critics butt

competition to the floor.

 

7) FORMER SUPER DUPER CHEESESTEAK CHAMP, STEVE HOWARD:
We have a ringer.  Stepping out of retirement, former 2012 Super Duper Cheesesteak champ Steve Howard is hungry for more.  Does he still have what is takes to beat the challenge and get on the leaderboard for the store?  We look for a good time and he is the man to beat.  Watching this guy mow through a 16 inch cheesesteak is worth the price of admission alone.

 

8) GEM CITY PODCAST STAR, TERRY “IZZY ROCK” MARTIN:
The man behind the Gem City Podcasts steps into the Cheesesteak arena to help the Pink Ribbon Girls.  Trading in his microphones and headset for a 16 inch sub with the works, can he beat the challenge? Or will the Super Duper sub make Izzy, too dizzy?  We have a feeling he may we the wildcard in this competition and could come in with an impressive time.  Come watch for yourself and see if Terry can do it !

 

Chrome Diva Rep Chris Goode almost came in 1st last time.

9) DAYTON CHROME DIVA BIKERS CLUB REPRESENTATIVE “GOOD GUY” CHRIS GOODE:
Loud motorcycles and long highways are a way of life, but can this open road friend of the Divas beat the open faced Super Duper Cheesesteak?  Watch as this Chris steps up to the table for charity again.  Gripping the sub like handlebars, we expect him to put the pedal to the metal and put a hurting on this sub.  This will be his 2nd time at the competition and his first time he nearly came in first place.  If he comes in hungry, look or him to be a dangerous competitor.

 

10) NICK TARKANY SR. OWNER and BREWER at HEAVIER THAN AIR BREWING CO.:
Nick is a big time aviation buff and expects to fly high in the cheesesteak challenge. Will he be able to land this sub with triple the meat, triple the cheese and the “Works” toppings which include mushrooms, onions, mayo, lettuce, tomato and hot relish?  We are grateful to have this local brewery owner and brewmaster, who makes incredible beer, as part of the fun.

Nick Tarkany Sr. from Heavier than Air Brewing Co.

 

11) DUSTIN STANLEY “DISTRIBUTION KING of WARPED WING“:
We will see if the transition from beer to cheesesteaks is a natural one as Warped Wing’s distribution king, puts his crown on the line.  Can Dustin beat the clock and make Ermal proud, or will the sub feel like ten tons of stout?  We are very excited to have him in the competition and look for him to possibly be a dark horse in the race.  Will he be able to can the competition?  Come watch and help us raise money for Pink Ribbon Girls.

 

12) RYAN ROTH, LOCAL ELVIS TRIBUTE ARTIST and VOTED DAYTON’s #1 MALE VOCALIST:
It’s one for the money, two for the show, 3 to ready now go Ryan go !  We ready for him to rock this event ! Will he be able to beat the King of cheesesteak challenges?  Ryan is a great sport, and we are thankful he is taking time to be in this charity fundraiser.  Food Adventures blog, Submarine House and the Pink Ribbon Girls say …. “AAahh thank you very muuucch.”

Dustin Stanley – Warped Wing Distribution King will be in the contest.

Surprises at Cheesesteak Qualifier, Finals to Follow

March 5, 2017 By Dayton937 Leave a Comment

Chef Hayden Shocks the Crowd, wins Qualifier !

Fat Tuesday got even fatter this past week at Submarine House in Centerville. The newly opened restaurant at 503 Miamisburg-Centerville Rd. was packed.   Fifteen competitors were ready to take on the Super Duper Cheesesteak Challenge and their friends and family were there cheering them on.  Standing room only was the atmosphere as Dayton’s favorite foodies, The Food Adventure Crew called the place to order.

Hungry Jax was the Emcee and official timekeeper was Kris Mick, past champion and cheesesteak eating legend.  We were here to see if any of these big mouths could qualify for the store’s top 10 times.

What happened next was simply epic…….

— LOCAL CHEF MATT “PORK CHOP”

The 16 inch Super Duper Cheesesteak

HAYDEN STUNS THE CROWD WITH  WINNING TIME of 4 minutes 41 seconds. Rumors swirled after the event that the chef and owner of Scratch Food had been training for weeks with an unorthodox diet of ruffage, cabbage and even cauliflower to stretch his stomach.  We cannot confirm this, but his time was amazing.  We did notice his foot stomping and bouncing method while eating.  That may have been a strategy to let the food settle, or it could have been excitement.  We will never know.

Kayla Bradstreet put her hair up, and put the men to shame !

We do know it was a legendary cheesesteak challenge moment and surprising highlight of the night.  When Chef Hayden raised his hands and yelled “done,” he then stuck out his tongue.  The crowd gave him a big pop of applause, hoots and hollers.

 

— DAYTON AREA SOCIALITE KAYLA BRADSTREET, REPRESENTING THE WOMEN, BEATS THE CHALLENGE and shows the men the some girl power !  Calling herself “man hands” she manhandled the sub sandwich into submission with a time of 14 minutes 20 seconds.  The crowd went bonkers as she tilted her head back and sprinkled the last bits of lettuce into her mouth.  She raised her hands and showed her empty mouth in triumph to the roar of women throughout the restaurant.  There were cell phone flashes and people recording videos everywhere.  It was

Chris Goode (left) finished in 5 minutes and Gary “The Growler” Leasure finished in 15 minutes.

Female Food Adventure for the ages.

 

— CHRIS GOODE, LAST MINUTE SUBSTITUTE FOR THE CHROME DIVAS, and the thinnest contestant, destroys his Super Duper Cheesesteak in 5 minutes flat for the 2nd best time. Lesson learned, don’t ever count the little guy out.  Especially if he has a mohawk!  Chris tore into that sandwich and rode off into the sunset on his Harley!  Thank you to the Chrome Diva’s for your support and your great representative !

 

The contestants grow restless – 15 people took the challenge

Bryan Suddith Seducing the Camera

—At the end of the night, the thermometer donation tally was at $686 plus approximately $180 more would be donated from $1,800 of food and drink sales in 2 hours.  Not too bad, about $886 bucks for the night.  We could have never done it without the participation of the contestants and the support of their friends and families.  Thank you to those who came out to watch, eat and drink and who also donated money on the side.  We could not have succeeded without the incredible ownership of Submarine House and their staff.  Their generosity and local support of causes is an example for all.  Thank you to Dayton Dining, Dayton Most Metro, Dayton Chrome Divas, and

The Pink Ribbon Girls for the promotion and support.

This was a one night only fun get together for charity, but it was fun to see who could qualify for the event.  The top 10 times go on to compete for the store championship in mid-April and each store’s champion will be named.  Then each champ moves on to the April 22nd, 1pm event, the finals at the Huber Heights new Submarine House Bar and Grill.  Come watch with us !

Al’s Smokehouse: Ribs at 4am? YES !!! **$20 Gift Certificate Contest**

June 20, 2013 By Dayton937 10 Comments

Ribs that make you say “DAMN!”

You’re tipsy.  You are out late with your friends at the Oregon District or downtown, and you need  some food.  Well, Al’s Smokehouse and Cafe is the word on East Third.   Open until 5am on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, it is the perfect spot to satisfy your late night hunger pains.   This little known Dayton secret serves up tasty, soulful selections from Ribs to Burgers at incredibly cheap prices.   Located  at 140 E. Third St, Al’s Smokehouse is also a great place to catch a quick lunch.  A Food Adventure is in order here ANY time.

Owner Al Shamburg learned cooking from his father who was from Treasure Island, Jamaica.   Al honed his culinary and catering skills over the past 20 years, building quite a reputation in Dayton and Springfield for incredible tasting food.  Through the years, this self-made-man worked hard to buy his equipment and finally open his own restaurant.  He has hired a great staff like his sister Stephanie, and head cook Tyrone, who worked in Dominic’s kitchen for 17 years.  The result is a delicious, affordable menu, with consistent quality.

 

HERE’s THE SKINNY:

Owner Al Shamburg & Head Cook, Tyrone

— Al’s Smokehouse Menu features fantastic BBQ, and delicious soul food like bourbon chicken and collared greens

— Open LATE on weekends til 5am for all you fellow Food Adventurers

— Breakfast served ALL DAY

— Prices so cheap, you won’t believe your eyes

— Friendly servers, veteran cooking staff and a no frills, casual atmosphere

MUST EATS:

— Banana Pudding: We are going to start with a homemade dessert that knocked our socks off.   Deliciously sinful, this is the real deal.  No canned stuff here!  Don’t expect us to share !

— The Smoked Pork Chop – Smoked and drizzled with secret marinades, it is almost like a steak.   The Big Ragu says this is the best pork chop he has ever tasted.

— The Ribs:  They are smoked for 8 hours, they are brushed with a signature bbq sauce.  Meaty and moist, they pack a wallop of flavor and the namesake of this restaurant.  Only problem is, they are so good that sometimes, they sell out!

“The Shamburger” – hand made, fresh patty

— “The Shamburger”: Hand packed and never frozen, the juicy burgers are good deal at 4 bucks.  Want to go full out?  Get the “Cry Baby” which is the Shamburger with a fried egg and cheese.

— Baked Mac n Cheese: Homemade and so good you will flip. Somebody in the kitchen knows what they are doing at Al’s Smokehouse!

— The Wings: Big and juicy, but the secret is in the tangy sauce.  Get the BBQ wings and be ready to lick your fingers.  You can try the other sauces later, like Jamaica Jerk or OMG Hot wings.  On Monday night the 50 cent wing deal is a steal !

— The Shrimp Cheesesteak: A seafood version of the famous sandwich.  Resembling a Shrimp Po’ boy, it is one heck of a sub.  Delicious!

Honorable Mention:  The Pulled Pork Sandwich is a solid choice.  Also,  we like the homemade Greens for an authentic soul food side.  Want to know a secret?  Al’s has a killer Pork Tenderloin Sandwich, and it isn’t even on the menu.  Ask for it by special request.

Food Adventures has found yet another unique spot for good food at reasonable prices .   We are serious eaters. We don’t do a “drive-by” one time visit to a restaurant and then write our articles.  Instead, we visit a place multiple times before it is worthy of a  Food Adventures share on Dayton Most Metro.   Al’s Smokehouse in no exception.  We have eaten almost everything on their menu.   From the Fish and Grits to the Pancakes and Home Fries.  The popular Bourbon Chicken has a honey and spice flavor with hint of Jerk seasoning.  You get a slight touch of Al’s Jamaican roots with this dish.   Al explained to us that his Bourbon Chicken is made with ‘small hen meat.’  He feels they taste superior to regular chickens.

Who else in Dayton makes Fish and Grits???

The story of this restaurant is simply a hard working family, who is putting their heart into this locally owned eatery.  So what are you waiting for?  If you are anywhere near downtown, or want a casual trip to the city for some grub, check out Al’s Smokehouse.  It isn’t fancy, just some tables and chairs.   But the FOOD.. aw the FOOD.. is some great decor, for the stomach!

Want to see more of Food Adventures?  “Like” them HERE on Facebook !

 

Who wants a $20 Gift Certificate to Al’s Smokehouse?  One lucky fan who comments below will be chosen at random.  Please tell us your comments about Al’s Smokehouse, below!  Let us know why you love Al’s, why you would like to try Al’s, or why you want that gift certificate ???  GOOD LUCK !!
