The classic food challenge scene in the movie The Great Outdoors is permanently embedded in the folds of the minds and guts of all who have seen it. 

John Candy's character Chet has to put away the "Old 96 Ouncer" - a 96 ounce prime-aged beef steak. Chet eats all 96 ounces including the fat, grizzle and all to win free meals for the entire family and for himself, complimentary meat sweats. Check out the whole scene below.

Wednesday nights at The Fresh Horse in Harrisburg, South Dakota is two for one burger night - a hard sign to drive past and way too good of a deal to pass up. As I scanned the menu looking for a burger draped in bacon and cheese, I came across The Chuck Wagon Challenge:

Four half-pound patties with bacon and cheese with all the fixins' and a large side of fries. Eat the entire thing by yourself in a 1/2 hr and it's free!

I enjoy a small town burger and I love seeing that these food challenges still live on in the menus of small towns across America.
