Don’t know if it’s still on the menu since there’s none in my area now, but Jack In The Box used to serve The Collosus burger. The massive grease patties, 3 kinds of cheese, 3 strips of bacon, condiments of your choice. I could barely finish one, let alone have any room for fries. Have a cardio surgeon implant one of those suckers directly into a ventricle.

The nose tackle for the GB Packers, Gilbert Brown, had a burger created for him by a local resturaunt, called the Gilbert Burger. It has triple everything, no pickles. He is only allowed by the team to eat one a week and it is so greasy you have to hold it with napkins to keep your grip on the burger.

Hot dogs according to Faldureon:  
Take two hot dogs(or those german sousages I think they are called bruhtwerst or something) wrap each in a slice of chese(mild cheddar works well) and then in a slice of virginia ham (or just ordinary ham) and bake in the oven at 450 for 12-18 minutes. After that put on hot dog buns, add fixins and have a heart attack thats so delicious its allmost worth having.

Rochester, New York is the home of the world’s most unhealthy meal. A meal so bad for you that it is actually called, I kid you not, a “Garbage Plate”. Let me break down the basics of the beauty that is the garbage plate:

The base of this meal is comprised of two major components. Half mayo-laden macaroni salad, and the other half home fries or some other fried potato alternative. On top of that you get your meat. This can be either 2 cheesburgers(the most popular), hot dogs, steak, eggs, you name it. On top of that you get some mustard and onions to cover everything. Lastly comes the hot sauce. Every restaurant in Rochester makes their own version of the hot sauce, and each one is slightly different. I always have a hard time descirbing the sauce because there is nothing else in the world quite like it. Now when I say hot sauce, most people think of Frank’s Red Hot or Tobasco, but this sauce is completely different. Basically, its a thin, greasy sauce that is heavily spiced and chock full of finely ground beef. I guess a fair comparision would be to cook up several pounds of hamburger and drop it in a gaint vat of Tobasco. It’s not quite like that, but its the best analogy I can imagine. Once you get this devine concoction on your plate, standard procedure is to mix it all up into one giant mess, hence the name.

There is truly no better late night food in this world than the garbage plate. All throughout college I recall many drunken 2 A.M. treks to the local diner to get a plate. It’s almost a rite of passage around this town.

For illustrations sake, I found a link that shows a picture of a garbage plate. Doing a quick google search will turn up more results if your stomach isn’t already in knots.

In Oklahoma, there’s a small hamburger chain called [Ron’s Hamburgers](http://www.ronshamburgers.com/) that makes THE best burgers. Here’s the description of the “Ron’s Special”:

> 1/3 lb. cheeseburger with “Cure 81” ham, real bacon bits, fried onions, mayo, mustard, pickle, Lettuce, and tomato.

I can’t begin to tell you how good they are.
