For only $23.95, you can order The Ye Olde 96er, a SIX POUND burger at Denny's Beer Barrel Pub.

They recently had an eating contest which will air on the Food Network.

CLEARFIELD, Pa. -- People from New York and Ohio come to Denny's Beer Barrel Pub for a pretty big hamburger: 6 pounds of beef, one large onion, two whole tomatoes, a half a head of lettuce, 1 1/4 pounds of cheese, top and bottom buns, and a cup each of mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, relish, banana peppers and some pickles.

Those who try to tame the 6-pound hamburger have a time limit: They must do it in three hours or less.

[belgurdo]

I can't find any Red Barclay pics

 

[EdLuva]

They should call that The Ye Olde 6-feet under

Instant heart attack

 

[Trevelyon]

Wow! you'd have to like... dislocate your jaw or something to get a reasonable bite out of that thing.

 

[Teddman]

I believe this is where they checked in Mary Kate Olsen.

Here's your prescription for anorexia!

A whole family can eat that thing!

 

[Desperado]

So what happens if you eat it all under 3 hrs? nothing?

That was for the competition that was filmed for Food Network. It didn't say what the prize was. Money? Honor? A ribbon? Heartburn?

 

[Doth Togo]

Imagine the bowel movement you'll have to take after eating that hoss.

Talk about being pwned.

Maybe a quick death.

 

[SteveMeister]

That is one big-ass burger.

 

[IJoel]

Good God Almighty!

 

[SyNapSe]

My friend saw this on TV.. I guess no-one has ever finished it. Good god, why are those dorks picking it up and trying to open their mount to a 180% angle.

Cut the facking thing up.. your jaw will thank you!

 

[Kuroyume]

This is one of the many things that is wrong with America...

 

[Ecrofirt]

I bet I could do it. I wish I had known about the contest.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

This pic reminds me of porn.

 

[SyNapSe]

I think it's always going on.. it's the places "gimmick". Much like that movie the Great Outdoors or whatever. Where they had a 96 ounce steak and John Candy had to eat it all for the whole family to get free dinner.

Yeah, you can order it anytime. The contest was the one time deal. You can look at their menu here:

Holy shit, all together, the damn thing weighs NINE POUNDS!

 

[Otaking]

I'm half tempted to take a field trip with a few of my friends over to Clearfield and try that burger. Doubt I'd be able to eat the whole thing, but I'd give it my best.

 

[Ronabo]

My god, I've seen hell. It was in the form of a 6 pound hamburger.

 

[DaCocoBrova]

The fattening of America.

I feel for those people. With beef being one of the most difficult to digest foods and all...

 

[G4life98]

I cant stop laughing....

 

[Alucard]

That is one huge burger. I'm not sure if I could finish it and I do have a fairly big appetite when I get hungry. I might be tempted to try and finish one of those things if I'm ever in that area. Haha.

 

[SteveMeister]

I cant stop laughing....

Neither could I

 

[xsarien]

"I'm probably not going to get the whole thing down, but I'm going to try to," Pittman said. "If I can get the meat down, I'll be happy."

*cough*

 

[AssMan]

Another reason why our country is so phucking fat.

 

[Mashing]

That is like one of the coolest things ever... I bet is tastes as good as it looks too... mmmm mmmm

 

[SteveMeister]

I'd split one with my wife... and like 10 or 15 of our friends

Hey, it'd be a great centerpiece at a party

 

[Ghost]

ive never been more hungry in my life than i am right now.....

 

[LakeEarth]

I once did a two pounder called the Cardiac Arrest on a Bun. I finished it, but it was two huge patties, and my mouth wasn't big enough. I had to take out one of the patties, eat the burger, and then eat the patty with a knife and fork. Still, I was almost dying at the end of it. I don't know how anyone could dare do 6 pounds.

 

[jenov4]

Ok I'm getting a burger for lunch.

 

[xsarien]

You guys go have your heart attack lunches, all this thread made me do was make me appreciate how good a roast beef sandwich can be, and that's what I'm getting for lunch.

Now there's an idea. Brand it a 'party burger' and watch the dollars roll in I hereby claim common law trademark to Party Burger.

 

[heavy liquid]

Found some great HUGE pics that would make good (if disturbing) wallpaper:

The plaque listing all the people who finished the burger in 3 hours. One guy finished it in a stomache-churning 7 1/2 hours.

Adding the cheese (12 slices):

Prepping the bun:

Ultimate defeat:

 

[Dead]

Awful.


Reminds me of Good Burger, but worse.


ugh, repulsive....

 

[bjork]

Is it even humanly possible to eat that much food in one day?

I once tried to do three Double Doubles from In-n-Out, and gave up after #2. But three double doubles doesn't add up to nine pounds... I don't see where you could put it all. Usually with these contests, you can't go puke or you're disqualified, so I don't know how someone could hold it all in.

Well shit, the people eating those things aren't even fat! Then again, a friend of mine is skinny as hell yet manages to down a massive deep dish pizza all alone. :\

That burger almost makes me sick, though. I wouldn't even dream of trying that. I don't see how anyone could eat that thing. Why even bother? You KNOW you'll walk away unfinished and sick as hell...

 

[Meier]

hahaha @ that wings sign in the background

 

[bishoptl]

sweet merciful Jesus in heaven

 

[MrPing1000]

Why are these people proud they are serving death on a plate?

 

[Wario64]

wtf??

 

[Die Squirrel Die]

I feel disgusted on so many levels.

The idea of eating that makes me sick.

But I'm also disgusted at the total wastefulness of our society that allows this to happen. When so many people in the world are starving it's disgusting that this sort of stuff happens. It's one thing to throw away food because you maybe made too much and are less hungry than you thought you were, it's totally another to make something that you know will almost certainly be wasted.

 

[Archaix]

For some reason the six pounds of beef doesn't disgust me nearly as much as a pound and a quarter of cheese slabbed on top of it.


I'd love to be in that resturaunt when somebody orders a diet coke with that thing though, and you know it's happened

 

[fart]

THEY HATE US FOR OUR FREEDOM

 

[Archaix]

You know...I bet if you threw up on that in the middle of eating it, nobody would really notice.

 

[Drexon]

Wow, 4 kilograms. That's a spicy meat-a-ball, and I'm from Sweden!

I'd like to try it on though. I'd prep my self by expanding my stomach with lots and lots of water the day before, then pee it out, leaving room, then go for it, doubt I'd succeed.

 

[mightynine]

This is the best thread in quite a while.

Wonder what kind of to go box you get with that?
