Found this pic today... looks legit... I think it's from somewhere in LA, can't really make out where it's from by the box...

Burger King's been pushing the "Have it your way" motto for a while now, but I've only just managed to stumble onto this site. http://www.whopperettes.com, a BK marketing site where you can design your own whopper, and watch the pretty girls throw themselves onto your fantasy burger. It's a bit disturbing if you ask me, can't say I think a girl wearing a beef skirt does it for me.... (don't go there.. please....)

So anyway, I couldn't resist, here's what BK thinks a 29 pattie Whopper should look like.... (it was that big, it even had the top chopped off it!) Does this mean they're actively encouraging the creation of these massive burgers? w00t!

Following on from jeffuwo's 3lb sandwich, and encouraged by our last anonymous post, I ended up googling around and finding the store which sold him this fantastic sandwich. It's called The Carnegie Deli, 55th Street, New York.

After reading up on their web site, turns out this place has been around for quite a while! Not only do they do massive Pastrami sandwiches, how about Carnegie's "Subsational" 6 foot sandwich, or their Famous 4 layered Sloppy Joes? I haven't got those pictures (yet!) but I plan to! They even have a service where they bring the deli to you! How's this...

We set up two eight foot tables - plug in our commercial meat slicer - STEAM our own world's best Corned Beef - Pastrami and Brisket of Beef in large portable chafing dishes and then cut it to order for your guests in any amount and combination they desire

I've added some more images to the Carnegie Deli photo gallery, so if you have any you'd like to send through, email to and I'll post them up!

That's a whole lotta corned beef!

This is a sandwich from the Carnegie Deli. Corned beef on top. Tongue on the bottom. It took 3 days to finish it.

"The Dodd" tries to destroy the 7lb "Aussie Bush Burger". He vblog'd his experience, and we captured a gallery for your enjoyment!

The saddest thing about this story though, is that it looks like "Aussie Bush Burger" has closed down. The beat talks about all 3 of their burger huts closing about 2 months ago.

James Shannon also did a write up on it in mid 2004, sounded like a fantastic place....

Aussie Bush Burger, you left us far too soon.... may your legendary burgers live with us forever more...

Nathan sent this in the other day... a 15lb home made burger, cooked on the good ol' Aussie BBQ. Check out his site, he's video blogged his experience!

Inspired by these guys, and in keeping with a family tradition of "Christmas surprises", I invited my family over on Christmas Eve and attempted to make a 7kg (15lb) burger.

"longdongwong" sent this one in, it's called "The Quadruple C", purchased at Dan's Diner in Toronto. Here's what longdongwong had to say about it!

From: http://longdongwong.blogspot.com/

From the menu, it's a 24oz burger served with a quarter pound of cheese, a quarter pound of bacon, and 2 fried eggs - yikes. For those that want to be a hero, you can order the "Collossal Colon Clogger Combo" which, along with the Quadruple C burger, comes with a "small" poutine and a large shake.

This is from my report on Salt Lake City a while back:

Crown Burgers was my reward after driving for 12 hours on the eve of Thanksgiving. In college, there was a burger and sandwich shop run by a Pakistani family called Royal Burger. Their fries were perfect. Their grilled cheese was perfect. Their club sandwich was perfect. Their reuben was perfect. Great stuff. Living a quarter of a mile away for a year helped me top 300 lbs in college. The jewel of their sandwich crown was the Royal Burger Special, a quarter-pound flame broiled burger with cheese and a pile of pastrami.

One of our readers sent this in today, 4.5 pounds of ground Alberta Beef, and a $500 prize if you can finish it in an hour! But if you don't finish it in time, you pay $200, with the proceeds going to local charities, a great idea!

Owner of the restless Wheels Restaurant, Abe Ame'r has issued a challenge to any one who thinks they have a huge appetite.
He has created the burger to end all burgers. The Millet Monster, as he has dubbed it, is equivalent to 32 normal quarter pounders.
The meat patty consists of 4.5 pounds of ground Alberta Beef, a loaf of bread, four large tomatoes, 12 slices of process cheese and almost a full head of lettuce plus assorted condiments.

Abe challenges anyone who thinks they are able to eat this monster to come on down and take the challenge.
Here’s the deal to date. If you are able to eat the whole thing, including the bun, and all the condiments within one hour, you get $500 in Canadian funds. If you fail, you pay $200. Of the $200, the restaurant gets $35 to cover the cost of the burger and the balance goes to the charity of your choice.
As it now stands 4 Millet businesses have jumped on the bandwagon, but as this goes to press, others will be approached to help sponsor the event. The hope is that at least $1000 will be raised as a prize.
Further developments will be posted on the Pipestone Web-site at:
