Think you can eat this massive burger? If so, prizes await

If you’re a lover of cheeseburgers, and a speed-eating contest sounds like something you’d enjoy, then you’ll want to pay a visit to a Monroe flea market this weekend.

The “Say CHEESE Burger” contest is taking place on Sunday, Feb. 19, at Treasure Aisles Flea Market, located just off of I-75 in Monroe.

At 2:30 p.m., contestants can make their way through a colossal cheeseburger, stacked high with:

  • 3 patties, equating to one whole pound of ground beef
  • slices of spicy Pepper jack, American and Cheddar cheeses
  • mac and cheese bites
  • fried pickle slices
  • fried onions
  • and a slathering of nacho cheese sauce
  • all sandwiched between a large hamburger bun that's then topped with two giant fried onion rings

The winner of the contest will be rewarded with $50 worth of “Market Bucks,” a “Say CHEESE burger” T-shirt and a 30-day free gym membership to Anytime Fitness.

You’ll also get to have your photo displayed on the “Say Cheese” challenge wall.
