First, the bun was baked - a loaf for the top and a loaf for the bottom, each made in a 14" pizza pan. Then, approximately 5lbs of hamburger was put in a bowl. Then a second bowl that it actually fit in. (93% hamburger from Fareway was used to limit the shrinkage during grilling, hopefully to prevent the burger from pulling itself apart as it cooked. The burger did lose about 1" from it's original 14" diameter during cooking.) Barbecue sauce, onion flakes, seasoning salt, ground pepper, and garlic powder were all added to make a wonderfully flavorful hamburger.
The burger made it through the entire cooking process in one piece and was cut with a large knife to be shared by many. Unfortunately, not nearly enough photos were taken to show the event, but there is some video. I will try to get that up in the future.
