- What is the heaviest fast food burger? - Let's talk about that. (upbeat music) Good mythical morning. - Is it just me or are fast food burgers getting bigger and bigger? I mean, is it that my mouth is
getting smaller and smaller? As a man with a famously small mouth, what is your take on burgers
getting mega mega mega? - Well, first of all, I
was going to say, yes, I think your mouth is
getting a little smaller as you get older. (chuckles) I didn't want to say it,
but you brought it up. And secondly, I see this as just an opportunity for more bites. So small mouth man doesn't
matter, doesn't mind. Yeah. Big burgers are good. - Yeah and the burgers are getting bigger, and when it comes to big burgers, people care a lot about calories, they care a lot about fat content, they care about if they have tomatoes, but do you want to know the
funnest thing to care about? How heavy a burger is. And it doesn't get any fun
in what's about to happen because we're gonna
determine the heaviest. It's time for bring out the
scales and give us that beef. Which fast food joint burger
weighs more than Omar Sharif? Omar Sharif is just an
average sized actor. - Right, but he's probably
heavier than a burger. - Yeah.
- Typically. Okay. We took a very close look
at all of the burgers from all the major fast food chains, and using a one burger
per restaurant rule, we picked what we perceive
to be the biggest, biggiest. - Yeah. - That's my new thing,
the biggiest burger, the biggest six burgers. - That's the title we're going
with, biggiest burger ever. - Based solely on the images provided by the restaurants themselves. Now we're strictly talking
about the menu staples, no hacks, no "can I add a patty?" and no limited time offers. - Yeah, and we're going to
be doing this in match-ups until we have determined the
hefty hefty of the heaviest. And it's going to be a
competition between the two of us. Who's better at eyeballing the hefty, because we're going to be
using elementary school, school yard rules here,
there's going to be no licking, no punching, no biting, no smooching, no touching of any kind to be
done to any of these burgers as a part of this competition. And after we've made our guesses, we will place the burgers on
the official beefy boys scale to see who was right. The heavier the burger,
that's the one that moves on. - Yeah, that's right, what
we're trying to find out. - The heavier the burger,
the heavier the burger. - The biggier the burger,
the heavier the burger. Okay. So contain yourself, guys. We're about to find the heaviest burger that passes through a drive through. (tense music) - [Stevie] Okay, boys, let's begin with two
classics going head to head. First, the McDonald's Big Mac with two, 100% pure beef patties, pickles, shredded lettuce, chopped onion,
a slice of American cheese, big Mac sauce, and a sesame seed bun with an extra half a bun in the middle, versus the Burger King triple Whopper, which has three flame
grilled beef patties, one slice of American cheese,
tomatoes, lettuce, mayonnaise, ketchup, pickles, sliced white onions, and a sesame seed bun. - Now it's missing a middle bun, but the density of the meat
is driving the most weight. - Yeah, I mean, you get
an extra patty in there. - And mayo drives a lot of weight, and every time I order a Whopper, I'm just struck by how much
mayo is slathered on it. - Depends on which Burger King you go to. So there's big mayo Burger Kings and there's light mayo Burger Kings. - Most of them are big mayo. And of course, I mean, we didn't add this. This is actually, the triple
is actually on the menu. - It is. - I've never ordered it. - I think I've gotten a quad before. I think I had it on the
show many, many years ago. - Maybe. I think that was cinco. - Okay. Let me just, just
clarify a couple of things here. So we're both going to be guessing which when we think is the heaviest one and then putting all the
scales to see who is right. Now, for every wrong guess,
we must put on a heavy, fast food chain, get it? And then wear them by the end
for the end of the episode. So whoever's got more chains on at the end is actually more of a loser. - Yeah. - I mean, there's no way. I mean, hold on. Now the Big Mac has between
385 to 400 sesame seeds on each Big Mac bun. - Oh, those are some heavy seeds? - How many Sesame seeds does
that have? It looks like more. - [Link] Yeah, it's a biggie, I mean-- - [Rhett] It's a bigger bun. - it's more seeds, more
beef, 1,216 calories. - And this is only 550 calories. I mean, there's not, I mean there's no, you can do a three two one, but we're both gonna, we're not idiots. We went to engineering school. So we're saying that the
triple Whopper weighs more. - I'm just wondering if anything is gonna, woo, weigh more than this. - We're going to place it on here and then we'll do a
three, two, one, release and then just watch the
Whopper hit the ground. Three, two, one, release. (laughs) - That was fun. - There was nothing to it. I mean, look at that thing. - Oh man. And even try
to exert some effort-- - You might be able to
add a whole nother Big Mac on there and have that triple
Whopper still take it out. - [Stevie] Guys, look
at how fun the scale is. We should incorporate
more scales into life. - That's what I was thinking. I wanna weigh more things. (dramatic music) - [Stevie] Okay. This is a
round I'm really excited about, because first we have Shake
Shack's Double Smoke Shack. - Yes, that's a good burger! - [Stevie] Two beef patties,
two slices of American cheese, Niman Ranch applewood smoked bacon, cherry peppers, Shack Sauce, and a bun. And then we have the
In N Out Double Double with two beef patties, two
slices of American cheese, onions, lettuce, In N Out
spread, tomatoes, and a bun. - Okay. Let me just say, you
said this was a good burger. I'm going on record. If I haven't already, this is my favorite burger on the planet. - With the? - This exact configuration. - With the peppers, I like their classic. - The Shake Shack, double Smoke Shack with the cherry peppers, double beef. - The beef is so good. The backside of that, don't touch it, but how the bun just
kind of kisses together and it's got a little taco-ness to it. - A little taco-ness. - And I think if you were
just weighing the buns here, they got a thicker bun
over there, a heavier bun. - That just looks like a
bigger burger, the In N Out, and that's a very, very good burger. - Very good.
- A lot of onions. They'd like, they'll do a
whole cross section of onion, but that doesn't drive a lot of weight. - I don't know, I've had
a heavy onion in my day. You know, Anthony Bourdain
called that burger a perfectly designed
protein delivery system. - It is great. I mean,
I, I prefer Shake Shack, but I love a good In N Out burger and I treat them as separate entities. - I just think it's a different thing. This is like super fast, fast food. And this is like, I got a little
bit more time on my hands. - [Stevie] What's the calorie situation? - 870 to 670. - But, wow. 200. Oh wow. There's 57 grams of fat
in this double Smoke. I, you know, I'm not even
gonna look at the information, I'm not gonna look at it. - [Link] It's not as good for you, but it's definitely gotta be heavier. - Oh, we're not doing
a three, two, one, huh? Yeah. We both agree. There's no way. I mean, I've picked this
thing up many, many times. - Could be wrong, this is
heavier than I thought. Throw it on there. - [Rhett] And we'll do it at
a three to one and release. - [Link] Nice little placement. - Okay. Three, two, one, release. Oh, Whoa. - Oh it's closer though. Had that little bounce, man. Let's give it another
shot, let's just see. - Wow. So that is closer. It wasn't a runaway. - And if I eat it, it's
going to get less heavy. - Oh man, I want to take a bite so bad. - No chains yet. (dramatic music) I know you're getting
hungry for some burgers. So when this is over, go over to the Mythical Kitchen channel, get even hungrier because Josh
and Trevor are bringing back Burger King's Angriest Whopper,
which was discontinued, but not in Past Food it's not. - And don't forget to also
check out the Mythical Kitchen podcast, A Hot Dog is a Sandwich, where today Josh and
Nicole are determining at what point a grilled
cheese becomes a melt, ha! find out wherever you get your podcasts. - Stevie, this matchup is epic. - [Stevie] You bet it is. Now this is our final preliminary round. On Rhett's side, we have Carl's Jr's spicy triple Western bacon cheeseburger. - That's a mouthful. - [Stevie] Which has three
char broiled, all beef patties, jalapenos, two strips of bacon, three slices of pepper Jack
cheese, two onion rings, and tangy barbecue sauce,
all on a seeded bun. - Dang.
- I'm so hungry. - [Stevie] And Link, we have the Wendy's triple bacon jalapeno cheeseburger, which has three beef
patties, pickled jalapenos, Applewood smoked bacon, American cheese, crispy fried onions,
a savory cheese sauce, a smoky jalapeno sauce, all on a bun. - And a cheese, a cascading
cheese explosion on the front. - Both of these look good.
That actually looks better. I think the Wendy's one looks better. The Wendy's one has square
burgers and square patties. - What are you looking at up here? - I'm looking into my math mind and the square, you can put
a circle inside of a square. - Unless the less the circle is bigger. You could also put a
square inside of a circle. I think the squares are
smaller than those circles. - And they're sesame buns, sesame seeds. - I think there's more beef over there. I mean, if you look at the
calorie count 1380 versus 1260, both more than the triple Whopper. - But there's 86 grams of
saturated fat in the Wendy's. - This is like a freaking
Jenga stack of stuff. - This is not going to be easy. And we need, we definitely
need to do the three, two, one for this one because we don't
need to influence each other. - [Stevie] I got a three,
two, one ready for you. - Oh man, that is a thick,
that's so concentrated. - All I am is hungry. - [Stevie] Here we go. Three, two, one. - I think it's this one. - I think, I think there's more beef, but I just think once
you get the soggy onions, there's more other stuff. - I didn't think about the soggy onions. - There's more cheese
too, it seems like it's-- - All right, let's pick 'er up and well, that's pretty,
it's heavy, it's heavy. - This is not as heavy
as I thought it would be. - [Rhett] I can barely grip it. - Get it on the scale. This is science. - [Rhett] Okay. Got a
three, two, one, release. - Put it right in the middle. - [Both] Three, two, one, release. - I mean it wasn't even close. - Yeah, 'cause it went down for a second. But I think I just let go before you did. Oh, let's make sure. - (laughs) All right,
yeah, let's make sure. You lost it, put some of
your onions back on there. Get those soggy onions. And you got lost a little bit
there, put that on there too. - Okay, and then. - Nope, wow, this thing is so heavy. Is this triple Whopper heavy? Huh? There's only one way to find out. (dramatic music) - [Stevie] This is it,
the heavyweight finals. At stake is the title of the heaviest hamburger in the world - At stake, that's a pun, right? - [Stevie] we've got Burger
King's triple Whopper with cheese, Shake Shack's
double Smoke Shack, and Carl's Jr's spicy triple
Western bacon cheeseburger. - That triple Whopper
is a photogenic burger. I mean the fact that, you
know, it just came up, it just came off a truck
and just landed here. Whatever happened. - That's how we get our
burgers, from a truck. - This is a mess. But sometimes
a mess is the tasty stuff. - This looks too clean,
this looks too clean to me. I want stuff pouring out of my burger. - I mean, we gotta know
that the Shake Shack is not in the running. I mean, that's the loser. - Let's go ahead and weigh it. We know that it's not as
heavy as these others. - So it comes down to these two. - But it does weigh 9.81 ounces. - I pity the fool who was
thinking that was the heaviest, you know me with the chain. - 9.81 ounces. That's just half, a little bit more than half a pound. - He's underwhelmed. He's disappointed. All the excitement is
drained from his body, but now let's get down to it. It's time to vote, man. 'cause we've got mayo and meat. - [Rhett] They both have three patties. Their circumference-- - This, one's got that melty white cheese. It's got a lot of girth, y'all. - The circumference of the
Whopper is a tiny bit bigger, but this spills out more. - And there's no bacon over here. - And it would be a very Carl's Jr. Thing to have the heaviest burger. - I think the bonds are
the exact same size. - You think? Hold on,
you think Burger King and Carl's Jr. is the same restaurant? Like Kroger and Ralph's? - Could be. I mean, we know that's not
true, so let's not keep up. - You don't know what's
true in this world. - Yeah, that's true. - [Stevie] Okay. Here we go. Three, two, one. - Oh, you about got my finger. So we agree because I mean. - It's got bacon coming out of it. - Just look at that thing,
it's going all over the place. It's got the three burgers. - Okay, so let's put this one over here. - Let's weigh that puppy. - We think that the triple Whopper, which, scale cut off, so
let me turn it back on. - Zero it. - Make sure it's okay.
And it weighs, guess. - 11.3 ounces. - 15.82, almost a full pound. 15.82 ounces - Dang. Okay. Are we going to break a pound? - We're gonna break a pound. - Well, you say a quarter pounder burger. Well that's the weight before cooking. - You're telling me this, what do you call this thing first of all? - [Stevie] The spicy triple
Western bacon cheeseburger. - Spicy 'cause it's got this. - {gasps} it's only 14.89. We were wrong! The heaviest burger in the world is Triple Whopper at almost a pound. We are shamed. - I can't, I'm sorry, Burger King. - Almost a pound, 15.8,
it went up to 15.82. I guess I must have spit on it. - That is, my mind is blown. Wow, man, we gonna eat good though. - We're going to eat all this. - You know what's up, heaviest burger. You get it from the source. Thanks for subscribing. - Yeah, and clicking that bell. You know what time it is. - I'm Luke Withem. - And I'm Landon Hudson. - We're here at the Ice House
Man in Newcastle, Indiana. - And it's time to spin
the wheel of mythicality. - We've been there.
- Yeah we did. - We made a song many years ago. Okay, click the top link
to watch us do two things. One, we're going to determine
which of the heaviest final three burgers
actually taste the best. And we're going to match
up the signs of the Zodiac with the restaurants
(wheel clicks) - Click through to Good Mythical
More to find all that out. - I have literally one
sesame seed left on my bun. The last little guy's hanging on.
That should have been a double quarter pounder from McDonald's
The GMMore was kind of a mess. It was weird that they seemed to combine two concepts poorly and didn't even go through the whole zodiac.
this episode was the lamest thing they've done for a while...
Burger
The only thing this episode achieved was making me hungry. The “game” itself was way too obvious to be taken seriously. And also, who cares about the weight of a burger?
This is when you know they're doing stuff more about views than the content, which is pretty alarming. They know the food episodes get the most views, and they know having large burgers on the thumbnail would get large views regardless of the content of the episode, which is exactly what it seems like they did for this one. Like others have said, who cares about the weights of the burgers?
This but with crew members
