The 7 Hamburgers of the Apocalypse
Hamburgers, next to apple pie and statins they're the ambassadors of American cuisine--for better or for worse--and these harbingers of heart disease might be the baddest of all.
Here are 7 over the top hamburgers that are guaranteed to clog your arteries by just looking that them:
1. The Quadruple Bypass Burger
The Quadruple Bypass Burger from the Heart Attack Grill; four burger patties with side orders of Jolt Cola, unfiltered Lucky Strike cigarettes and French fries deep-fried in pure lard.
2. Big Daddy Barrick Burger
Sonya Thomas, a 5'5 99-pound competitive eating champion, downed an 18 pound Big Daddy Barrick Burger in Las Vegas a few years ago.
3. The Hotdog Hamburger
This one hails from England. I'm not sure what it's called, but it's a hamburger with a chopped hotdog on top.
4. Mulligan's Monster
Mulligan's invented the Hamdog, one hotdog wrapped in a beef patty and cheese, then deep-fried, covered with chili and onions and served on a bun with a fried egg on top.
5. Dyer's Burgers
Dyer's Burgers are deep-fried hamburgers piled with mustard, onion and pickle and paired with a single, double or triple-order of cheese fries.
6. Whatafarm Burger
Whataburger puts the entire farm in one sandwich; bacon, cheese, fried egg, burger patty, and chicken cutlet. They affectionately call it the "Whatafarm" burger.
7. Luther Burger
Another Mulligan's creation, the Luther Burger. Named after Luther Vandross it's a bacon cheeseburger sandwiched between two glazed donuts.
Now, I hope you all find it incredibly ironic that a guy who doesn't eat meat was asked to compile a list of monstrous hamburgers. I do.

Actually, the cheese, as long as it's not processed, fake cheese, and the bacon are very good for you, and if you're going to eat fries, better they are cooked in lard than the fake fats-much healthier. Donuts? Even I have my limits.
ReplyI think the hamdog and the whatafarm burger look great-the others are just excessive for the save of excessiveness. BUt I already told my wife what's for dinner tomorrow! (mmmm-hamdog! hold the onions, please.)
I was not impressed with those burgers. Please people go to de gym and learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai. Don't be a fat couch potato. Your health insurance rates will rise!
ReplyActually, the commonly accepted origin of the word "hamburger" comes from Hamburg, Germany.
ReplyAccording to Wikipedia, A form of pounded beef called "Hamburg Steak" was common in Hamburg in the middle of the 19th century. The recipe was brought to North America by the large numbers of people emigrating from Germany at the time, many of whom passed through the port of Hamburg. Eventually someone put the Hamburg Steak on a bun and so invented the hamburger.
The ground meat used for hamburger patties does not necessarily contain any form of pork product.

ReplyDon't forget the Breakfast burger!
TACOTOWN!!!!
ReplyThis list is useless without mentioning Denny's Beer Barrel in Clearfield, PA.
ReplyOk... this must be an American website, with a bunch of moronic American readers who can't tell a damn glazed donut from a BAGEL...
No wonder your country has gone to the dogs the way it has. You deserve everything you get, including your quadruple bypasses.
ReplyGood comment. I noticed it was a bagel as well. I am American and I can honestly say we are lazy, consumption whores that need a wake up call.
ReplyYou, actually, are the moronic non-American reader. Thats a doughnut, without a doubt, its just cut in half so they could use one for both sides. The only person with enough intelligence and razor bladed teeth that can actually tear through that would be Jaws from James Bond
BTW not all Americans are stupid, there are idiots in every country. Maybe when you mature you'll understand that you too are a retard in your own nation. That was a nice attempt at taking a crack at Americans, but you failed.
(I think my other comment was deleted for cussing so much...my bad.)
ReplyI'm calling shenanegans on the "Whatafarm" burger. It's not on their website and I've been going to Whataburger my whole life and have never seen anything like it. Plus, Whataburger's image is more of a "Homestyle" burger and less of a Burger King "Manly Meat" burger.
ReplyI believe the people who took the picture ordered a burger at breakfast (you can do that there) and built the "Whatafarm" themselves. You can see lettuce in the background but it is not on the burger itself.
We have Whataburger's here down south and I've NEVER seen or heard of the Whatafarm.....that sounds gross, so do the rest of them.....man we'll deep fry anything.
ReplyThe Widowmaker from Chef Burger in Kansas City deserves to be on this list:
half pound of meat
Replycheese
1 fried egg
chili
1 onion ring
Fire up the grill have a burger with lettus,tomato,cheese.Wash it down with a cold BUD.IT don't get any better than that..
ReplyThese vegetarians need to chill!!! You think because you dont eat meat you have this higher morality than the NORMAL people who eat meat and luv it. Guess what, you dont!
You are not better than meat eaters ... just weaker, beacause mere consumption of meat stirs up guilt and condemnation.. how pathetic!
Get off your high horse
You dont like what you see... leave the site
Some of those burgers were disgusting though!!!
ReplyI've eaten the Quadruple-Bypass burger at the Heart Attack Grill. It's truly one of the tastiest hamburgers I've ever eaten! Great fries, too--must be that lard they cook them in!
Replyhttp://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paulas-home-cooking/the-ladys-brunch-burger-recipe/index.html
Paula Dean took the Luther burger to another level.
ReplyI actually saw the episode of her show where she made that burger and it just looked disgusting. Sometimes, she makes stuff that looks awesome, but most of the stuff she makes is just WAY too greasy for me. She's also got a recipe for bread pudding that uses Krispy Kreme donuts instead of bread.
ReplyWhat do you all think about the Fatburger Triple King Challenge?
ReplyThat burger with the hotdog in is called Bender Burger and you get them in a restaurant called Wimpy, it's slightly like an English version of Denny's. They describe the burger as:
The mouth -watering all -pork Wimpy bender served curled in a white bun with cheese, sliced tomato, onions and ketchup.
It is very nice and not fatty at all really, a nice alternative to McDonalds and Burger King.
Replyoh and its not chopped up hotdog, its just cut a bit so that it bends into a circle easier
ReplyThe hotdog burger is called a 'bender in a bun', cause of the way it's bent. You can get them without the hamburger too.
ReplyExcuse me, I gotta go to Fudd's.
Replywhats wrong with u vegetarians go eat ur grass im gonna go out to the farm and feed my live hamburgers some more corn til they r ready to slaughter moo to u veg heads
ReplyI think all that meat has clogged the arteries to your brain.
ReplyDon't care if the grease has been changed recently at Dyer's or not. Those burgers are excellent!
Replywhat the triple-poli-bacon-chili-cheeseburger at about Pink's Hotdogs in L.A.? i mean even if it wasn't three patties, a polish sausage, bacon, cheese and chili the fact that orson welles almost ate himself to death there should earn it a spot, right?
ReplyYou can't have a hamburger list like this without "Baseball's Best Burger." The Gateway Grizzlies, and independent league baseball team right across the river from St. Louis in Illinois, boasts a burger that consists of a thick and juicy burger topped with sharp cheddar cheese and two slices of bacon. The burger is then placed in between each side of a Krispy Kreme Original Glazed doughnut.
That's right, a bacon cheeseburger on a Krispy Kreme. If there was a burger for the Apocalypse, this one is it.
ReplyYou know the difference between a vegetarian and a meat eater. The meat eaters food can run away ! ! !
ReplyI have a button on my fridge:
Reply"Vegetarian: Indian word which means 'lousy hunter'"
Heh, some of those look rather unappetizing or unwieldly, how are you supposed to even eat a #1? and I've seen bigger than #2, and it had bacon and veggies to boot.
Btw the vegetarian "oh my god its so gross how could anyone EVER want to eat that" is just annoying. Nevermind that one of these could feed a starving family of ten in africa, or that they're loaded with calories and chemicals, or they symbolize the hedonistic entitlement present in our culture. No, they're bad because they are made of meat. I support every individuals' right to self-determination but when you act like you're better than someone else it's not right. Stop it.
ReplyIn defense of the Dyer's burger (WHICH I LOVE!!!MMMMM) The meat patty isn't humongerous compared to the others. if you get a single it's like 4oz of meat.Also it's not piled high with junk it's got like a slice of pickle, two onion slices and mustard. MMMM I could go for on right now, thanks for picking my dinner tonight!!!
(Ok if you ate one everyday/week it'd be bad but I eat one every few weeks and I'm 112 pounds so I guess it makes no difference with me. ^_^)
ReplyTHEY HAD A QUADRUPLE BANTHA PATTY BURGER AT THE MOS EISLEY CANTINA!! I SAW CHEWIE EAT TWO ONCE!! WHAT A WOOKIE SIZED APPETITE THAT IS!! LooL361
ReplyWhy is Dyer's Burgers on the list? It looks pretty average, especially without the cheese fries! :-(
ReplyI was not a vegetarian until I saw those photos.
ReplySadly, Mulligan's has been closed for years. BUT - I hear you can find similar fare at The Gravity Pub in East Atlanta. Seriously, though, you'd think someone would have checked that out before posting the list.
ReplySo...hungry. So....very...hungry.
I'm doing Weight Watchers, and I think just LOOKING at this page cost me 4 points.
I don't smoke, so, the Quadruple Bypass Burger isn't THAT bad for me, right? Right?
Sigh.
Back to the celery sticks. Feh.
ReplyI know how you feel. I look at people eating salads with no eggs or chicken and I get grossed out too.
All kidding aside (am I?), I've had the Luther Burger. It's great. Salty & Sweet like some Chinese foods, but I recommend drinking a dark or bitter beer with it.
ReplyYou missed the Grizzly burger:

To each their own....
ReplyI have found that a vegetarian diet seems to increase the self-righteous element of one's personality.
Patrick's on Third in St. Peter, Minnesota has the Chuck Norris burger. Two one pound patties, eight slices of bacon, eight slices of cheese and a grilled cheese sandwich shoved in the middle.
Now, That's Good Eating.
ReplyI can't believe you guys left off the best one:
The Britney Spears BurgerReply#6 w/ out bacon would be delicious!
ReplyI would try every one of them! Looks so yummy!!
ReplyObviously you haven't stopped at Hillbilly Hotdog on Rte 2 outside Huntington WV on the Ohio River. The have a 10lb burger (2 5 lb patties, 24 slices of cheese, mayo, 1 lb pickles, lettuce, tomato, and peppers). Thank the Lord my DNA will keep me alive for 100 years.

ReplyI'm not going to lie; I ate a doublecheesburger with a split and grilled 1/4lb polish sausage on top of it last week.
And, you know what? IT WAS AWESOME!
