How Everything on the Menu's Braun Strowman Became the Ultimate Foodie (Watch)
WWE superstar Braun Strowman spotlights restaurants in eight U.S. cities on his new USA Network series Everything on the Menu—and, yes, totally eats his face off.
Braun Strowman is revealing the juicy details (literally) about his new travel series, Everything on the Menu, ahead of its premiere.
The wrestling superstar grew up with a love of cooking, but he put that passion on the back burner as he power-slammed his way to WWE fame. Soon, the “Monster Among Men” will fully unleash his appetite on USA Network viewers this Friday, Oct. 24.
After traveling extensively with the WWE—and ordering at least three entrees when he eats out—Braun is the person who knows what’s good at restaurants across the country. Now, he wants to be your guide.
“The fun thing is getting in there, getting my hands dirty in the kitchen, talking to the chefs, the owners, the customers,” Braun exclusively told USA Network. “We tried to showcase and shine a light on places that hadn’t been on television or hadn’t had the spotlight yet.”
The 6-foot-5, 350-pound star also shouted out his parents, crediting them for turning him into a foodie.
“Life definitely started with humble beginnings as a kid. I’m very blessed my mom and dad were unbelievable cooks,” the wrestler revealed. “We didn’t have a whole lot growing up, but we never went without a meal, and it really taught me to appreciate how to make a big meal for a lot of people without a lot of ingredients.”
As he crisscrosses the country, from Orlando to Las Vegas, to uncover hidden gems and local favorites, you can expect more charming insights, and of course, epic amounts of food.
Everything on the Menu with Braun Strowman premieres Friday, Oct. 24., at 10 p.m. on USA Network with back-to-back episodes following WWE SmackDown.
