To celebrate National Burrito Day, QDOBA is hosting the first-ever QDOBA World Burrito Eating Championship on Thursday, April 6, from 11-1 p.m. CST at The Beer Garden in Deer District (1134 Vel R. Phillips Ave., Milwaukee, WI 53203) near Fiserv Forum.
In partnership with Major League Eating (MLE), the competition will feature 10 professional eaters, including first-ranked Joey Chestnut, fourth-ranked Nick Wehry, and 27th-ranked Eric “Badlands” Booker.
Each of them will be vying to set a new world record and become the World Burrito Eating Champion, as well as winning $10,000 in cash prizes.
The championship will be live-streamed across QDOBA social channels; fans can join the fun by visiting Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, or TikTok at 12 p.m. CST on Thursday, April 6.
QDOBA will debut its World Eating Championship Burrito, featuring fan-favorite grilled adobo chicken, cilantro lime rice, black beans, 3-cheese queso, roasted tomato salsa, and guacamole, during the competition.
For any create-your-own QDOBA entrée, the hand-smashed guacamole and signature 3-cheese queso is always free and level up every meal.
Eaters will be challenged to consume as many World Eating Championship Burritos as possible during a 10-minute window.
Milwaukee-area fans, foodies, and sports enthusiasts of all ages are invited to join the fun.
The free and open-to-the-public event for the first 500 people will have music, free food samples, giveaways, activities, and more.
QDOBA’s World Eating Championship Burrito will be available for a limited time for online or in-app ordering only from April 6 through April 21.
