This sounds like a challenge to be reckoned with! According to their site, only one person in the history of this challenge has completed it successfully. A 14 year old boy about 20 years ago. Will they conquer this challenge? Read on!
From: http://www.mitchellchurch.org/hamburger.htm
There's a restaurant on the north side of Terre Haute, Indiana that has an interesting item on its menu. The Smelterville Inn offers a 3 pound hamburger. That's right! One hamburger that weighs 3 pounds! And if you can finish it along with a huge basket of fries, another heaping side (in our case, a whole jar of apple sauce), and your drink in 30 minutes or less, you get it all free along with a t-shirt and your picture on the wall. If not, it'll set you back around $15. We owe a big thanks for all of the money we've lost trying this to our buddy Chris Wood (one of Gary's friends / college roommate) who told us about the challenge and has tagged along on every trip.
