"Betcha Can't" Food Challenge at The Butcher Shop in Longview

We all think that we can eat more than we can, or at least I know that I do. Especially when we haven't eaten all day we think we can eat anything then we order massive amounts of food and normally cannot eat it all. Well, we're all not competitive eaters like Notorious BOB - Bob Shoudt who landed in Longview, Texas to take on the "Betcha Can't" burger challenge at The Butcher Shop.

Before you start bragging about how you could probably beat this food challenge let's talk about how big this challenge really is. We are talking about a gigantic burger consisting of 5 pounds of hamburger meat, plus 2 pounds of french fries, and you're more than welcome to put any toppings on the burger that you want.
