What happened after Man v. Food?
The Speakeatery, a sandwich shop at 705 Cookman Avenue in Asbury Park, New Jersey, is known for elaborate specialty sandwiches such as 'The Hand Grenade' — a hot-dog-bun-wrapped sandwich stacked with smoked baby back ribs, five-cheese macaroni and cheese, coleslaw, and a bourbon-baked-bean puree, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer's coverage of the show's Jersey Shore season. Man v. Food host Casey Webb sampled the sandwich as part of the episode, which aired May 28, 2018. The restaurant, whose menu also includes items like 'The General' and 'South of The Mason,' operates in downtown Asbury Park. In September 2026, The Speakeatery's Yelp listing showed 440 reviews with recent activity, and the business's own site, thespeakeatery.com, listed current hours (Wednesday through Sunday) and contact information.
