A dainty 100lb woman has become the first person ever to finish Denny's Beer Barrel Pub's monster 6lb burger. Kate Stelnick, 19, of Princeton, N.J., made the five-hour drive with two friends from The College of New Jersey, after they saw pictures of the monster burger, dubbed the Ye Old 96er, on the Internet and on TV's Food Network.
She ate the burger in 2 hours 54 mins, 6 minutes under the 3 hours allowed. Not even competitive eater Eric "Badlands" Booker was able to eat it when he tried last June. It took him 7 1/2 hours.
The burger takes 45 minutes to cook, and those who try to meet the three-hour limit must use no utensils and eat all of these fixins: one large onion, two whole tomatoes, one half head of lettuce, 1 1/4 pounds of cheese, top and bottom buns, and a cup each of mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, relish, banana peppers and some pickles.
Update (16/01/05): Here are some images of the champion burger eater.
Update (04/02/05): Here's a video clip of the huge burger.

Congratulations to
Buffet the hamburger slayer.
Very impressive.
I had the opportunity to eat 1/5th of one of those burgers as part of a charity event - our team struggled fro almost an hour but still came up short.
My weight was 215+ lbs before the event...

You risked your health for a free hamburger. You must be very proud. Seriously, enough of this already. It’s embarrassing. There are people who don’t have enough to eat, and we are trying to find news ways to make people sick by eating too much. It’s offensive and disgusting. I don’t need to see some 100 pound woman swallow 11 pounds worth of food in three hours. What’s the point? So, she can get a free burger and a certificate?
Look, if you want to debase yourself and eat like that, then I guess there is no stopping you, but stop pretending like you actually accomplished something, because you didn’t.

I recently had the opportunity to eat a 36 ounce hamburger (little over 1/3 of that one) and it is not fun. I think where I messed up is I went for speed and ate it in just over half an hour. The place is a restaurant in Chicago called Jake Melnick's.
However Kate's feat is much more impressive and she is hot to boot - so if you read this and want to go out for a huge disgusting dinner sometime let me know, I live by the beach in NJ.

I will be there on march 14 or 15 to slaughter her time. I GUARANTEE that I will finish is well before the alloted time limit is up.
I do agree, though, that it's unfortunate that there are people who cannot even afford to eat a quarter lb of food a day, and here I am, looking forward to consuming over 6lbs of food just for some prosterity...

Honestly that is what makes America great. We need to stop worrying about other people in other countries. There is nothing we can do that will help them. Besides, half of those countries don't even eat cow meat, so why let it go to waste?
I realized she didn't have to eat fries and I indeed had to eat an entire basket of fries in my aforementioned quest. That's where it got disgusting.

I think the comments made by Ali above, are ridiculous. Ali is jealous as hell, that he or she (or maybe it is a he-she) is stupid. I personally think that Ali is nothing but: 1 HUGE NIPPLE-DICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally, a woman that can eat more that a couple bites without being full. (in public that is)

I actually entered it into to the Weight Watchers recipe builder (I'm waiting for them to show up with white coats). This would be 15,500 calories more or less. Enough for 10 days. Amazing. My hats off to her - I certainly could not do it!
