HARVESTER has launched its biggest plate of food yet – a gut-busting mountain of meat for £50.
The restaurant chain has added the enormous dish to its latest menu and it contains a whopping 3,769 calories.

Greedy diners can feast on half a rotisserie chicken, a half rack of BBQ ribs, a short of beef rib and a massive cheddar and jalapeño sausage.
The giant plate is finished with a heap of salsa, pink pickled onions, corn bread, chips and coleslaw.
If that’s not enough, food fans can still top it off with a bowl of Harvester’s famous self-service salad bar.
The Ultimate Rib Roundup is described as a ‘sharer’ dinner on the menu and comes with a price tag of £49.99.
Harvester, however, has told customers: “Perfectly grilled, packed with flavour and made for sharing (or keeping all to yourself).”
Brenda Gliddon visited her local branch in Kent with her grown-up son to try the Ultimate Rib Roundup.
She said: “My son can out eat anyone I know but even he left some.” Other Harvester fans have also been eyeing up the new calorific dish as a meal for one.
One wrote on the restaurant chain’s Facebook official page: “I love sharing but I’d rather keep this all to myself!”
Another added: “That’s a single portion!”
Tagging in a pal, third commented: “You’ve got to try this. You might get more than 4 ribs on your plate!”
The Ultimate Rib Roundup is available in all 165 UK branches of Harvester.
It has been added as a new addition to the eatery’s Grills and Combos section of the menu.
Listed as a ‘Supreme Flavour Fan Sharer’, the description reads: “A hearty feast for true grill lovers: half of our succulent rotisserie chicken, a half rack of BBQ glazed ribs, a tender short beef rib and a Cheddar & jalapeño sausage paired with charred corn & black bean salsa and pink pickled onions.
“Served with sage & onion seasoned chips, our new hot honey drizzled corn bread and hot slaw.”
