There isn't one particular ingredient, it's just large amounts of high-fat meat with large amounts of high-fat, high-carb side dishes. Say, skin-on chicken thighs with mashed potato that't full of butter and caramelized onion that's full of oil. It might be hard to "picture" because you're trying to picture a plate of food, but in the volumes I used to eat, the amount of food wouldn't fit on a single plate, even piled high on a large one.

I wouldn't recommend anyone eat this way.
