    I remember when I ever visited that place, it was a Sunday at 6pm. I showed up absolutely HAMMERED, waited a good 20 mins before they seated us, which is apparently super quick. I ordered the Thurman Burger too. I ate about half of it and left the place sober and with a belly full of delicious, sloppy burger. I will always remember that fantastic experience.

    That is the most ridiculous burger I have ever seen.

    This, as delicious as it looks, annoys me to look at. Fork and knife needed. Now I’m eating a deconstructed burger one ingredient at a time. I’ll pass.

    Thurmans just needs to go away

    Places exist on nostalgia

    Burgers aren’t even good

    Wings were always better than the burger slop

  5. I went once, burger had a lot of pink in it. Had to deconstruct to eat. Didn’t finish it. But I went, I saw lol

    Live in Columbus. I’ve been to Thurmans but never ordered this. They were also on man vs food.

    Dumb.

    What’s the point of a burger that doesn’t fit in anyones mouth?

  8. Make 👏 Burgers 👏 Wider 👏 Not 👏 Taller 👏

    I have never understood why it’s even a thing to make a burger you can’t pick up with 2 hands like a normal human being and actually fit it in your mouth. I’ll take wider not taller every day.

    That place is good. I went there once a few years ago when I was in town I’d go back

  11. I think with a smash Iron, you could squish this into something edible

    If you have to take it apart to eat it it no longer qualifies as a burger for me.

    How are you supposed to eat this? It’s at least twice as tall as a burger should be in the worst case.

    My five year old saw this on my screen and unprompted said “Wow, that’s way too big for mouths, even a grown-up one.”

    Even a five year old immediately knows this is stupid.

    Hard pass. The “Great 3” Burger is my go-to at Thurman’s.

    I live in Columbus, and I’ve been to Thurman’s once. I got the triple cheese cheeseburger. It’s a huge burger, but nothing compared to this. Btw this is a challenge dish, not meant to be a practical burger. Now the other burgers are probably a bit big, but I could fit it in my mouth at 14

    That looks like the Thurmanator.

    I’ve had the Thurman a few times.
