I Bet You Won't

One giant pancake wouldn’t be enough for this challenge, but top it with a 10-egg scramble of your choice of 4 toppings along with cheese and potatoes and now we’re talking! The Grand Slam Challenge at Batter Up Pancakes seems to be one of the most delicious mixtures of breakfast food you can imagine. On a regular day this thing would feed between 4 and 6 people, but in order to complete the challenge you must attack it all by yourself and pray that you come out alive. Seriously though, this thing is bigger than a pizza!

I have passed this place countless times on my way through Chicago, but was completely unaware of the awesome food challenge that lurked inside it’s hallowed walls. There is nothing better than greasy breakfast food when you’re drunk or hungover, so a full mountain of the stuff is exactly what you need after a night of hard partying. Come to think of it, this would be a great challenge to attempt after going to the bars, I know I can always eat more than I normally do when I’ve got a 12 pack in my belly.
