Brad Sciullo, 21, scarfed down a 15-pound burger at Denny's Beer Barrel Pub. The burger had another five pounds of toppings.

Sciullo ate the burger in four hours and 39 minutes. He beat the record set by the restaurant by 21 minutes.

Sciullo won $400, a certificate and three t-shirts.

Sciullo weighs just 180 pounds and has won several other eating competitions.

The $50 burger Sciullo ate in Clearfield isn't the biggest one on the bar's menu. There's another one that costs $179 and consists of two 25-pound beef patties.

LOL, there used to be a chain of restaurants in Dallas named "Judge Roy Bean's" - They featured a 7-lb hamburger which was free if you ate it all, and cost about $20 if you didn't.

Unfortunately, I never tried one before they went out of business, but if I had, their bankruptcy would have probably been hastened.

Soy hot dogs are worse.

I tried some of those Morningstar Farms soy sausage patties once (about 20 years ago). They weren't too bad, but obviously I never developed a craving for them.
