It's not a secret that for decades, Keg Chicken has served up some of the most iconic food in the Sioux Empire.

What might not be as well known is the epic food challenge that's a regular on the Keg's menu.

It's called the Yard Bird Challenge and to conquer it, you'd better come hungry.

You read that right.

  • 16 pieces of chicken.
  • One pound of fries.
  • Two sides (baked beans, coleslaw, or potato salad)

45 minutes to polish off five pounds of food.

If you're up to the challenge, you'll get a t-shirt, photo with the Champion Belt, and a spot on The Keg's Wall of Fame.

Come up short? That'll be $40 for your troubles.

The Keg, on West 12th Street, opens every day at 11:00 AM. Closing time is 8:00 PM Sunday - Thursday; 9:00 PM Friday and Saturday.

The restaurant got its start in Sioux Falls in 1979.
