Yes, we really went there: this is a three-pound burger, and you need it in your life. It's no secret that supersize foods are better than their regular counterparts, and that's especially true when it comes to burgers. Instead of making individual cheeseburgers at your next cookout, serve up this giant one perfect for sharing.
