The 55 Challenge: Face the Ultimate Burger Feast

Up for the Five Five Challenge? We load a burger bun with a hefty 55 oz. of meat, add at least four toppings, and pair it with fries and a 24 oz. soft drink. Clear your plate in 30 minutes or less and the meal is on us. If you leave food behind—or try to cheat—you'll pay for it.
