Please post your food challenge suggestions here for this state. If you have photos and video of the location, please upload them on our What's Your Trip site.
Here are some past posts about locations in this state: Eagles Deli Challenge Burger, Boston Originally posted by: fx My name is Derek and I live in Boston, MA. I challenge you to come to Boston's own Eagles Deli and try to conquer the Challenge Burger. The Challenge burger consists of: 5lbs of beef, 20 slices of cheese, 20 slices of bacon. Of course what’s a burger without fries, our challenge burger comes with 5lbs of fries, one half sour pickle, and a Large Soda. Finish it all and you get your meal for free, and your name and picture on the Wall of Fame. Fail and your picture of defeat is added to the Wall Of Shame. If you decide to come to Boston Im sure I can find at least two other places for you to go and warm up for it, as well as stopping in at one of Samuel Adams breweries for some delicious beer since it is right down the street! Are you up for it? Cruiser's, Gardner Originally posted by: angryangel Great burgers and home of the Cadillac burger, 3 lbs of meat with a pound of fries. Eat it in an hour or less and it is free. Also show up in a classic car and get 10% off your meal. George's Coffee Shop, Gloucester Originally posted by: the bedrosian family "The Dean Special" (with pancakes) at George's Coffee Shop in Gloucester, MA. We've never heard of anyone who could eat the whole thing, and we're sure that you won't be able to either! Let us know if you want to try...we'd love to be there and witness the attempt!

The Good Table, Westfield Originally posted by: spaz This is an omelet served on a aluminum pizza tray. It consist of 8 eggs, but the amount of food in it makes it second to none.

I would like to recommend the Misty Moonlight Diner in Pittsfield MA. It is a 50's theme diner that has been voted best in the Berkshires. The challenge is the Godzilla -- A 12 egg omelet filled with 12 items (which include 4 types of cheese and 3 types of meat) toast and homefries. Finish it in 30 minutes for a T-shirt and your name on the wall.

Hello!
My wife Linda, aka Wimpy (of "Popeye" fame), would like to meet Brooklyn's Adam @ McGreevy's on Bolyston Street for 1.9 lb. Big Mouth Beckett Burger - we'll be in for the game on June 21st @ Fenway. Some of the proceeds to The Josh Beckett Foundation and you get a free T-shirt if you finish. Steve |

The McGreevy’s Beckett Burger is approximately the size of home plate and features lettuce, tomatoes, pickles & cheddar cheese atop 19 ounces of 100% beef. This monster of a meal retails for $30 with a portion of the proceeds going to the Josh Beckett Foundation. Every McGreevy’s Beckett Burger order comes with a complimentary t-shirt; those who finish the burger receive a t-shirt announcing that they beat the burger; patrons who strike out and need a to-go container are given a t-shirt announcing that the burger beat them.
This week with the purchase of a Beckett Burger you will be given a chance to enter to win 4 tickets to see Dropkick Murphys playing with Aerosmith in June

I am recommending Elm Street Pizza in Westfield for their hot wings. Hands down the hottest hot wing out there. A brief overview of the wing-three people have been hospitalized because of the hot-ness! The cook actually has to wear and mask, heavy duty rubber gloves and protective goggles in order to make the sauce! You MUST check this out!

I second the suggestion for the Misty Moonlight Diner in Pittsfield, MA. My folks live there and my son has conquered the Godzilla omlette. It took him three tries but he eventually did it. Adam, I challenge you to do it in one try.

I think he should go to McGreevy's of Boston and do the Big Mouth Beckett Burger challenge.

East Coast Grill in Inman Square in Cambridge puts on "Hell Night" a couple times a year. I live in Los Angeles now and have done the Orochon Ramen special 2 challenge several times with no problem, but taking down HEll Night's 8 bomb pasta was biggest challenge ever. You have to sign a waiver to take the challenge, and usually of the 500 some people who try every time its offered, only 25 or so of us can finish. The 8 bomb pasta Hell Night definitely should be on the show.
