The tiny township of Nindigully is located on the edge of the Queensland outback - 160km west of Goondiwindi, about 530km west of Brisbane, and
approximately 70 km north of the Queensland/New South Wales border.
Nindigully Pub is Queensland 's oldest hotel, located in its original condition and position on the banks of the Moonie River . The licence was issued in
1864 after operating as shearers accommodation for the Nindigully Station.
The "boom" town has now been reduced to just two houses, the pub, the old general store and the town hall, with a population of six!
Nevertheless, it was voted the Best Country Pub in Australia in 2006 by 44 Australia magazine, and you can see why - it has become famous for its
truckie's feed of the Nindigully Road Train Burger this giant hamburger is served with French fries, onion rings and a selection of sauces, says it will
feed 1- 4 people, and costs $36 - the meat patty alone is 1.2kg!

I want one of those burgers, I love those kind of giant things that you share. There was a little
Mom&Pop restaurant about 20 miles from here called Atlastaburger that had similar burger to that.
It was the usual, "If you eat it all by yourself, it's free." The wife and I would split one and she took
part of hers home. Like most of the fun things from years ago, it's gone now. Oh well........

Maybe someday I'll get one, as Australia is the only foreign country I ever had any desire to visit.
In fact I had it all figured out when I was in Nam, my first R&R would be to Hawaii to see my wife,
then extend in Nam for a couple of months to get a 5-month early out, and if you extended, you
would get a 2nd R&R. And I was headed for Australia!!!
Then came the 9th pull-out and suddenly it looked like it was the right time to go, so I did.........

Of course you have the Heart Attack Grill http://www.heartattackgrill.com/ but that is just junk food not a 1" thick steak

You don't even have to eat the food, the web site alone will give you a heart attack, or at
least a nervous breakdown, what a mess that site is..........

Eating that kind of food is no different than smoking or being an alcoholic, you already know
how bad it is for you, but you do it anyway. It's your own foot you shoot. Whatever.....

@ And since I barely drink and don't smoke, I figure eating that kind of food once in a while is
good, otherwise I'd be perfect.............

I watch this show sometimes. Great food ideas from all over the US served up in all kinds of commercial establishments of the not swanky kind. If you watch it while you are eating supper you'll eat too much. It all looks good.
