CLEARFIELD, Pa. - The newest addition to the menu at Denny's Beer Barrel Pub is one whopper of a burger. The Beer Barrel Main Event Charity Burger weighs in at 123 pounds, a meaty monstrosity that its cooks maintain shatters the world record of 105 pounds shared by two restaurants in New Jersey and Thailand.

The sizable sandwich features an 80-pound beef patty, along with a pound each of lettuce, ketchup, relish, mustard and mayonnaise, 160 slices of cheese, up to five onions and 12 tomatoes.

It's topped with a couple of pounds of banana peppers, then sandwiched into a 30-pound bun. Don't forget the garnish of 33 pickles.

There's a pretty hefty price tag, too: $379.

It's funny how every little burger dive on the Bama coast and a few on the extreme western coast of Fl all say that their burger in the one that Jimmy Buffet wrote the song about.

Hell yeah...though the burgers at the Tavern were pretty damn good. So were the onion rings, the bacon-cheese fries, the wings, the poppers and the beer. The karaoke? Not so much...

I'd like to see him flip that thing with a spatula. Hell, I'd like to see the spatula! Or even the grill!

I'd need help to lift that thing to my mouth.

Send it back and tell him it's been overcooked. You wanted it rare!
