Alaska

Seward's Folly at West Rib Pub and Grill, Talkeetna
This bad boy touts itself as being the biggest burger in Alaska and considering it weighs in around 5 pounds, we can't disagree. Topped with over 2 pounds of Caribou burger, sliced ham, 12 pieces of bacon, 12 slices of cheese, lettuce, tomato, and grilled onions, and smothered in West Rib's famous "Fat Ass" sauce, anyone who can eat this all within an hour earns the title of Master and gets a free T-shirt.

If you finish it all in under a half hour, it's on the house and your name is added to the Wall of Fame. If you can't finish it, you're stuck paying.
