Eating big in Howard County: Six meals you may not finish

The cover story in Howard Magazine's new dining issue takes a close-up look at six mega meals in Howard County, including a nine-pound hamburger at BGR: The Burger Joint and the Ultimate Burrita Prenada at El Hidalgo.

Here's that story. The Best of Dining issue also includes the results of the 2011 readers' poll on the best of Howard County dining along with picks by a "trio of distinguished guests," including Howard Magazine dining columnist Donna Ellis, the HowChow blogger and me.
