Massive 10-Pound Burrito is the Ultimate Texas Food Challenge

Only the hungriest of the hungry can tackle the biggest burrito in Texas. I kid you not; I’ve laid eyes on some of the biggest burritos around, but I have never seen anything like the 10-pound Monster Burrito they make at Tacos La Shula in Orange, Texas. 

They pack two pounds of meat, two pounds of rice, and two pounds of beans in that bad boy; they throw jalapeños on the side and top it off with queso. It looks delicious. However, I would need to split it with at least five people. 

But for those who are always looking for a food challenge to conquer, you have 30 minutes to put it away if you choose to attempt the challenge as a team. Those who are hungry enough to go at it alone have one hour to complete the challenge.

As usual, you have to eat every single bit of food on the plate. As you can see in the above video, competitive eater Nathan Figueroa wasn’t quite able to complete the challenge because he feared he might throw up while attempting to eat the jalapeños after finishing the burrito. He plans to eat the jalapeños when he’s about halfway through the burrito next time. 

If you think you’ve got what it takes to beat the Monster Burrito challenge, you’ll find Tacos La Shula at 5720 16th Street in Orange.
