Mt. Olympus Challenge at Clinton Station Diner

There are various burger challenges to be found at the Clinton Station Diner in New Jersey, but the Mt. Olympus is by far the biggest burger I’ve ever seen. Weighing in at 50 pounds, this burger is sure to put you and 3 of your friends into a food coma for a week. If 50 pounds of beef is too much for you to handle there are also smaller challenges that you can attempt, all of which are listed after the jump.

Clinton, NJ 08809
