Slim Jim Chili Becomes Cornerstone for this Special Cheesesteak Recipe

In the most extreme mashup of munchies possible, we've crammed all of the following into a single cheesesteak: SPAM and Slim Jim chili, steak, onions, PLUS Mac and Queso.

This ooey, gooey behemoth of a sandwich is certainly a sight to behold. It's the culmination of Munch-E-Mania, a special episode of Foodbeast's Twitch cooking competition, Kitchen League, where each of the three competitors made one component that inspired the entire recipe.

Competitor "Hulk Hoagie" (aka Josh Elkin) made a Philly Cheeseteak, the "Stoned Ranger" (aka BBBubbz) made a Frito Pie Chili Waffle Sandwich, and the "Hunger Taker" (aka TheHungerService) made a SPAM Mac and Cheese Monte Cristo.

Combine them all together, and the results are as gluttonous as they are delicious.
