Brad Sciullo, who works at an Italian restaurant in Pennsylvania, has become the first person to conquer the Beer Barrel Belly Bruiser.
The mammoth meal weighs 15lbs (6.8kg) and has 5.2lbs (2.3kg) of toppings.
The gastronomic adventurer completed his mission in four hours and 39 minutes.
Dennis Leigey, owner of Denny's Beer Barrel Pub, said Mr Sciullo, of Uniontown, was the first person to finish the meal.
Asked what possessed him to tackle the burger, Mr Sciullo said simply: "I wanted to see if I could."
The Beer Barrel Belly Bruiser includes a bun, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, onions, mild banana peppers and a cup each of mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard and relish.
