The Beast burger challenge at joe sensers restaurant and sports theater

What weighs 6 lbs. and is 10″… around? If you said The Beast burger challenge at Senser’s Sports Theater in Minnesota then you are right! If you were thinking something else… well, just keep it to yourself. We’ve featured a lot of burger challenges on this site, but I don’t think you can ever have enough! This burger is truly a beast and I applaud anyone who can accomplish a feat that only 1 man (at the time of this posting) has been able to accomplish, and it seems only fitting that he is in the United States Army. So prove your worth and head on over to Joe Senser’s Restaurant and Sports Theater to slay “The Beast”.

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.
