The 10 lb. Mother Burger at Burger & Beer Joint in Miami Beach, Florida

Jim, who owns Bulldog Neon ( a Neon company, duh!) and also runs Nikon Miami was the first person to mention Burger and Beer Joint to me. Last week, he spoke to me of The Mother Burger. Yeah, this thing is 10 lbs. plus the 4 lb. bun plus the toppings. Now, when I say he spoke to me about it, I actually meant to say he'd like to order it with me. This of course being a Beer place also I thought it would also make sense that Dave from South Florida Beer Blog check it out . Carlos Miller also found out somehow, alright I told him. Beer and Burger Joint has a steakhouse look and feel to it with great music playing (always a plus). We're split between 2 tables. Table 1: Jim, Carlos, Mark (some guy), a guy with bad business cards and 1 other dude and Table 2: Dave, his wife Carol, my friend Andy and me (Andy and me sounds like some kid's film). This being Miami, both tables order The Mother Burger. We get a preview of The Mother Burger when it arrives at Table 1.



This thing is massive and ridiculously big. We wait and before long, we have our own Mother to contend with. A saw is used to cut it in 6 pieces. I, of course get the largest piece. At Table 1, Jim is the last man standing as he finishes his sixth.

The pressure is on. Did I finish mine? Maybe I did and maybe, just maybe. It's a challenge I dare you to take.


UPDATE: The Mother Burger was recently featured on Man v. Food Live.
