Inhaling a meat mountain

Burger buffs ate their way through hundreds of limited edition designs at Dandenong Market to mark National Burger Day.
From sushi to schnitzels, potato cakes and cupcakes, stallholders served up unique burger creations on Sunday 28 May.
Plenty of the day’s 25,000 visitors successfully took a seat on the Burger Day Throne to take on the Freak Force burger – four beef patties, bacon, pineapple and cheese.
Chef Tim Holland commentated the attempts and presented trophies to those who finished the task.
Instagrammer Damien ‘Damoforce’ Egan created the monstrous meal for The Grill and consumed one alongside fellow social media burger enthusiasts Wayne Baker from Wayne’s Burgers and Riley ‘Chompamatic’ Murphy.
Dan from Burger Quest Melbourne – on Instagram as burgerquest_melbourne – devoured the burger in about five minutes and described it as “spectacular”.
