May 25, 2011 -- The Food Challenge

Man vs. Food.  That's what we witnessed last night at Denny's Beer Barrel and Pub in Clearfield, Pennsylvania. The place is famous for its burgers and has them in about 30 styles and sizes. It's burgers have been the focus on the Travel Channel, the Food Channel (Rachel Ray visiting for a taping) and rumor has it, Man vs Food.

Food challenges are a big thing here. While we were eating our basic 1/2 pounders (Pat's with onions, green pepper and tomato & mine with Irish cheddar, onions, and mushrooms grilled in Irish ale), this guy and two friends came and sat by us . He was ready to do a food challenge with the 2 pounder that you see here. The challenge is that he must eat everything: bun, burger, fries, pickles, and whatever else was on his plate in 1 hour.

We left just after he got started.
