350-Pound Burger

Mallie's Sports Grill and Bar in Southgate, Michigan has a big burger on its menu. Big is an understatement.

It's name: "Absolutely Ridiculous Burger."

“I got the idea to do this from the Guinness World Record book. I was actually thumbing through it and I see Thailand had the world record for a 78-pound burger. It just didn’t make sense having it in Thailand. So, I thought it would bring it home,” said owner and creator Steve Mallie.

This isn’t the first time Mallie has taken up the beefy challenge.

“The first burger we ever made was 134 pounds. That’s when we first got our Guinness World Record. Most recently, we did a 319-pound burger. Today, we’re going to beat it with a 350-pound burger,” Mallie said.

Mallie said it takes 20 hours to bake 270 pounds of hamburger and eight hours to cool it in a freezer.

“This actually cooks down to about a 180-pound patty. You actually lose about 100 pounds of grease,” Mallie said.

The bun weighs 100 pounds and takes four hours to bake.

“We’ve got 20 pounds of American cheese, 15 pounds of tomatoes, 15 pounds of onions, 10 pounds of pickles, 10 pounds of bacon and 10 pounds of lettuce,” Mallie said.

But the brave burger isn’t just for the record books, restaurant guests can also order one.

“Seventy-two hour notice and we can make one for you,” Mallie said.

The burger has a hefty price tag, too - $2,000.

Someone should tell Obama about this.

Last week, he said, "We used to have the best stuff."

OBAMA: We used to have the best stuff. Think about... the world used to say, let's travel to America. Let's see the Golden Gate Bridge. Let's see the Hoover Dam. Let's see these, these amazing things that America built. Are we gonna be the generation where we stop building?

Steve Mallie hasn't stopped building.
