What happened after Man v. Food?

On his stop in South Lake Tahoe, California, host Casey Webb sampled this brewery and grill's pot roast sandwich, built from seared wagyu short ribs braised with cipollini onions, celery, carrots, thyme and red wine, then stacked with mashed potatoes, stewed vegetables and wagyu gravy on a King's Hawaiian roll, according to the episode synopsis on Wikipedia's Man v. Food season 10 page. Cold Water Brewery and Grill has operated in South Lake Tahoe since 2014, brewing its own beer alongside a scratch-kitchen food menu, according to a 2014 report on the opening in South Tahoe Now and the brewery's own website. The stop was the first of three Lake Tahoe-area visits in the episode, which also included a Greek restaurant in South Lake Tahoe and a burger-challenge stop across the state line in Stateline, Nevada.
