Denny’s Beer Barrel Pub in Pennsylvania serves up a Beer Barrel Belly Buster, a 15-pound burger topped with cheese, tomatoes, onions, sweet relish, banana peppers, mayo, ketchup, mustard and lettuce.

Chicago residents can enjoy an eight-pound Monster Burger at Jake Melnick’s Corner Tap that serves up to eight people.
