OT - Places in Vancouver with a giant burger/steak and "finish it and it's free"

[ryanthekiwi]

I'm doing a bachelor party tomorrow night and the groom is just a really big eater. I think it would be hilarious to put him up against a giant novelty size burger or steak to see if he can finish it and get it for free. Maybe if he fails he will have to busk on Granville st to earn enough to pay it off.

In Maple Ridge the Witch of Endor pub has the "Famous Witch Size Burger"

$44 - Our 8.5 lb burger includes the following: 24 oz of lean beef, sourdough loaf, 4 large dill pickles, generous slather of burger sauce and mayo, one head of lettuce, seven tomato slices, six slices cheese, 20 onion nslices, 9oz grilled green and red peppers, 5 strips bacon, ham, 2 large eggs and 8oz of mushrooms.

This would be perfect except it's all the way out in Maple Ridge. We are going shooting in Coquitlam and then for dinner, so anywhere in between would be great. Any suggestions?

How close to the hospital is it?

How close to the hospital is it?

About 3.5km

About 3.5km

Not close enough.

Better bring a defibrillator.

Takes me 6-7 minutes to get there from my house on a good day.

Wow, how many calories would this be? And would you like fries with that?

However, there's been one person who has finished. According to Jon Gilmore, Witch's operations manager, a successful candidate devoured the entire meal in 19 minutes.

Gilmore said anyone who attempts this massive feat in the next month - and succeeds - will be given $100 and $100 towards a charity of their choice.

Get 100 bucks if you can do it (plus a free meal)

Edit: Here's a list of a bunch in Vancouver: http://eatfeats.com/calendar/Vancouver.html

The picture doesn't look too bad but the description sounds like a killer.

This guy could eat two of them:

 

[ryanthekiwi]

Went with the witch of endor pub. A bit of a dive but the burger was huge and hilarious.

 

[Canuckz]

What would not be hilarious is the deluge of barf that is likely to be expelled by him later that night, if meal is partially or wholly consumed. In sure he gets a window seat

 

[vector209]

That is nasty...

 

[Wheatley]

I wouldn't even know how to attack that thing. Hands I guess? In order to finish it, you might be better off dismantling it and trying to eat it like a normal meal (knife and fork style).

 

[Tanevian*]

Not close enough.

Better bring a defibrillator.

You call the ambulance in advance. I was at Lucy's Diner yesterday, they have a deal:

Uncle Grant's Challenge:

Lucy's

Yeah I've done that one....the trick is to take little bits of the bun with every bite, and not rely on having salad as a side...it makes no difference.

Got to disagree about it being a dive however...that's just Maple Ridge! Everythings older if its established, and like the coachman and the sheep, they are beginning to renovate.

 

[Cool Hand Goof*]

id deff eat 1/5th of that burger

 

[Barney Gumble]

How close to the hospital is it?

What's the name of the Las Vegas burger type joint where they had a couple pass away due to cardiac arrest after eating there?

Heart Attack Grill. Aptly named.

Cogburn is the chosen one!

I couldn't eat the top bun alone in one sitting. Thats like eating two loaves of bread.

Bang on.

Was the food any good there? I've driven past that place but I've never gone inside.
