Chestnut bellied up to the table at the two-story Raising Cane's location in Las Vegas to see if he could add another record to his already-long list of edible endeavors.

In five minutes, Chestnut downed 44 Raising Cane's chicken fingers, setting the franchise's new all-time mark.

The new record continues a summertime hot streak for Chestnut, who scored his 15th win in the annual Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest on Independence Day earlier this month.
