DURHAM, N.C. — A restaurant in North Carolina is serving up a tarantula burger in celebration of their Exotic Meat Month, WGHP reports.

The only way to get ahold of the eight-legged beef sandwich is by winning the Tarantula Challenge at Bull City Burger and Brewery.

The burger costs $30 and includes a pasture-raised North Carolina beef burger, gruyere cheese, an oven-roasted tarantula and spicy chili sauce.

Participants can sign up for the limited challenge in the restaurant. Then, they have to watch Facebook, Twitter and the Bull City Burger and Brewery website to see if their ticket is drawn.

If the selected participant eats the entire burger, they’ll get a free T-shirt.
