Served at Jake Melnick's Corner Tap in Chicago, this is called the Monster Burger for a reason. The gargantuan sandwich packs eight pounds of burger meat, and is meant to feed eight people. Guests would have to divide into teams to conquer one of these burgers, which could make for a fun—if filling—teambuilding activity.
