It’s been awhile since we’ve posted a pizza challenge so now seemed like a good time. Thanks to Eric for the submission we are now aware of a giant 22″ thick-crust, 13 lb pizza challenge known only as “The Big Kahuna”. Unlike most of the food challenges you’ll find on this site, this one can be attempted by a team of 2 people. And you’re going to need 2 people if you want to finish this monster in the alloted time, 22″ may not seem like a lot, but once you pile on the toppings it really adds up. You can also check out a video of the challenge after the jump.

Talk about a monster pizza, the stuffed pizza challenge featured on Man v. Food last night was incredible. Being from Chicago I’m used to our stuffed crust pizza, but Randy’s Wooster St. Pizza Shop brings a whole new meaning to the word stuffed. This pizza actually consists of all of the ingredients encased in a doughy crust almost like a pizza calzone. This challenge is not for the faint of stomach, even with a team of 2 people Adam had a hard time finishing his half, but with the help of his partner they were able to complete the challenge with 1 second to spare.
