Completing a super food challenge... 2lb burger & chips

[Art0ir]

Any tips?

Doing this tomorrow with work.

I don't expect to finish it. It's 2lb of mince in a matching bap, bacon, cheese and lb of chips.

I would like to make a good attempt at it though.

I've been told it takes 20 minutes to register you're full, so hammer on at the start.

Anything else?

Drink lots of water today.

If it's only one bun you'll be fine. I did a burger eating competition late last year and managed 5 half pound burgers but the killer was the brioche buns they came in. The burgers themselves were delicious, even the last one.

My tip, ketchup. It's like lubrication.

Will that "stretch" my stomach?

[Art0ir]

The bun is humungous, I have a feeling this will be where I struggle too.

You should really eat a massive easily digestable carb heavey meal the morning of the day before, and as much water as you can take in.

Apparently it stretches your stomach.

God, that looks hideous! They could at least serve it with proper frites instead of nasty big chips, and try not to burn the bun!

[Art0ir]

Not sure whether to go with salad & cheese or not.

That's no bun, it's a cob loaf!

We're British, not French. Here in Britain it's CHIPS that are 'proper'. "Frites" are for wimps.


P.S. Nice ZT-T! Is that Biomorphic Green?

Yes it is! Sadly going up for sale in the next week or so once it's back from servicing.

Good luck. I made something similar at home last year.

32oz burger with 8 bits of crispy bacon, served in a loaf of bread!!

It went down easy, but as you said - half hour later I felt like st.

I think we need an ultimate sandwich thread. I'm planning on making an epic meatball sandwich this weekend, so I may just start one

I cannot eat such meaty humungousness due to a bowel condition. Haven't for 2 months, no fibrous meats

Aaahhh, now that's more like it! That's what a mega-burger should look like, not that foul abomination further up the page with its un-melted slices of plastic orange "cheese".

OP! Save yourself the disappointment of trying to wade through something clearly marketed on bulk alone with no pride whatsoever taken in actual quality and get Russy to cook you up one of these instead!
