Title: For Hamburger Connoisseurs
Post by: Gixer on May 01, 2005, 07:21:32 PM
Probably an old story for some but what a classic.


Where's the beef?  It's at a Pennsylvania pub that serves
the world's biggest burger - weighing in at NINE lip-smacking pounds!

That's no whopper - you can actually get this meat monsterfor $23.95,  loaded with all the "fixins"...
 
Two whole tomatoes
 
 A half-head of lettuce
 
12 slices of American cheese
 
A full cup of peppers
 
Two entire onions

Plus, a river a mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard.

 Denny's Beer Barrel Pub is renown for its 6 lb. burgers. National and llocal newspapers have reviewed the burger and its main appeal seems to be...
 
NO ONE HAS FINISHED IT!!

There was a hamburger store in a town where I went to Highschool, their hamburgers had a bigger diameter, but the hamburger meat wasn't as thick.  It was cut up like a pizza.  Big Ed's hamburgers it was called.

Burger War Escalates With 15-Pounder

CLEARFIELD, Pa. (May 2) - The burger war is growing. Literally. Denny's Beer Barrel Pub, which lost its crown as the home of the world's biggest burger earlier this year, is now offering a new burger that weighs a whopping 15 pounds.

   
 
When it comes to burger wars, the Beer Barrel Belly Buster is the nuclear option. (Patrick Donlin, Tri-County Sunday)  
   

Dubbed the Beer Barrel Belly Buster, the burger comes with 10.5 pounds of ground beef, 25 slices of cheese, a head of lettuce, three tomatoes, two onions, a cup-and-a-half each of mayonnaise, relish, ketchup, mustard and banana peppers - and a bun.

It costs $30.

"It can feed a family of 10," said Denny Liegey Sr., the restaurant's owner.

Denny's Beer Barrel Pub had offered a 6-pound burger - with 5 pounds of toppings.

In February, a 100-pound female college student became the first to eat the burger within the three-hour time limit. Kate Stelnick, of Princeton, N.J., was awarded a special certificate, a T-shirt and other prizes and Leigey picked up the $23.95 tab for the burger.

One month later, the Clinton Station Diner in Clinton, N.J., introduced a 12.5-pound burger dubbed Zeus.

So Liegey responded, and the Belly Buster was born.

Over the weekend, four men took the challenge, but couldn't get through the entire burger. They opted for doggie bags, instead.

"It's a little too much for me to handle," said Steve Hepburn, of Clearfield. "It's like trying to eat half a cow."
