(Reuters) - An Australian cafe is claiming a world record after cooking a giant hamburger with an 81 kg (178 lb) patty that took 12 hours to cook and four men to flip.

The monster burger cooked up by Sydney cafe owners, Joe and Iman El-Ajouz, weighed in at 90 kg in total, eclipsing the previous record of 84 kg, set in Michigan in the United States.

"Just flipping the patty was the main challenge for us, but it all went well," Iman El-Ajouz told Reuters.

"My husband had to prepare special metal holders and a metal plate, he had one at the bottom one at the top, locked them together and they flipped the burger with that," she added.

The giant burger contained the giant beef patty, 120 eggs, 150 slices of cheese, 1.5 kg of beetroot, 2.5 kg of tomatoes and almost 2 kg of lettuce all topped off with a special sauce on a giant sesame seed bun. It was eaten by employees at the cafe.

The variety of burger will be on the menu at the cafe for the next year in order to meet the conditions for a Guinness world record, but will set hungry patrons back around A$1,500 ($1,220).

what the fuck?
 
i wonder how they cooked all the meat.. surely u would've had to bake it.. there is noway to fully cook the thing using grill or a burner
 
Beet's on a burger??? WTF, that makes it the worlds biggest epic fail. So that means they broke 2 records with this burger.
 
Beet root on burgers is A++++, fried egg, not so much, but beet root YUM.

And I also agree that Americans aren't really allowed to nitpick Australian cuisine.
 
People don't put vegemite on burgers yuck! I don't know where you got that information from. Vegemite is strictly a toast and cracker spread. Get your facts straight!
