PBR Rock Bar & Grill (PBR), situated within the Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino, takes Executive Chef Yvonne Maatouk’s already brazen barbecue menu and turning it on its mind with a brand new “bigger is better” concept. The menu will have a new eating challenge, the Cowboy Challenge, in addition to family-style hamburgers and barbecue platters to share.
Las Vegas’ favorite Strip-side country bar is inviting everyone to demonstrate their intestinal fortitude and tackle among the city’s latest food challenges: the Cowboy ChallengePBR Dollars, a totally free PBR T-shirt and $25 each to PBR’s sister shops Rockhouse Vegas and Chayo Mexican Kitchen + Tequila Bar.
A hamburger unlike any other, the Cowboy Challenge includes a two-pound beef hamburger, capped having a half pound of cheddar cheese, one half-pound hot dog and a half pound of PBR’s house-made chili, ready atop a huge hamburger bun. The hamburger is capped with four fried pickles and supported with a pound of french fries along with a 24-ounce milkshake.
“I’m really looking forward to seeing this in action; this burger is an absolute monster,” said PBR General Manager David Kring. “Really it’s all about having fun and finding new ways for people to enjoy their visit in this amazing atmosphere we’ve built a reputation on over the years.”
In addition to the Cowboy Challenge, PBR will also be serving up a brand new Family Menu: an array of shareable giant hamburgers and platters of the famous house-smoked barbecue.
“I’m part Italian, so family-style is kind of in my blood,” said Maatouk of the new family-style offerings. “There’s something personal and intimate about sharing a meal with a group of friends or family, and that’s really what we we’re trying to do here, in classic PBR fashion of course.”
The giant burgers serve up to six and include one pound of french fries. barbecue platters serve anywhere from four to 12 people.
