This Beast Burger is (quite) a bit of an animal
A restaurant in Bristol has been swamped with demands for a burger so big it has to be ordered 24 hours in advance.
The Beast weighs in at 72oz – equivalent to 18 quarter-pounders – and contains a staggering 456 grams of fat, as well as three days of calories.
The burger is so big it takes almost an hour to cook – and uses so much mince that restaurant bosses insist customers pre-order the enormous burger a day in advance.
Bosses at Warren's Gourmet Burger Company in Wooton Road, St Anne's, claim only a handful of customers have ever managed to polish off the monster feast.

As well as the eight-inch wide burger, and 400g bun, customers are also invited to polish off a huge bowl of chips, and a side of coleslaw.
The entire feast contains 6,806 calories – almost three times the 2,500 calories the government recommends for a man.
Anyone who clears their plate within an hour is rewarded with their picture in the restaurant's hall of fame – as well as a waiver of the burger's £15 price tag.
It is inspired by American TV show Man V Food.

“"And likely a free burger for the reporter"
What reporter? The story was copied straight from the six month old report on the Bristol Bites website.”

... because that's how long it takes to defrost them.”

“Why don't they just put 18 quarter-pounders together?
Any how many tonnes of cheese to make this a cheese 'beast'?”

“Owner to Manager: "Have you seen that program on TV called "Man vs Food"? If we make up a huge burger, we can get some free publicity out of it"
Manager to Owner: "I'll telephone the Post right away"”

“I've never understood the appeal of this sort of thing.
"Hooray! I can eat an enormous burger!"
"Yes, well done you greedy *******."”
