Meet the Double Bacon Hamburger Fatty Melt, from Serious Eats. Basically, it's two bacon cheeseburgers that utilize three bacon-stuffed grilled cheese sandwiches as buns. And if you can believe it, it's not actually the most extreme burger on this list. In fact, it's actually kind of quaint.

The "Fifth Third Burger"


The "Fifth Third Burger" available at the Fifth Third Ballpark in Michigan is a five pound cheeseburger consisting of 5 1/3rd pound burger patties topped with a full plate of nachos (complete with nacho cheese sauce, chili, shredded lettuce, diced tomato, salsa, sour cream, and tortilla chips), all stuffed inside an eight-inch bun.

This one had to be seen in the fullness of its glory. It is a tower of grilled Kraft's macaroni and cheese topped with two 1/3rd pound burger patties with a few dainty bits of shredded lettuce and sliced tomatoes on top. Gotta have those greens, after all.
