US casino cooks up record 914kg cheeseburger measuring 3m

CARLTON, Minnesota (AP) - A Minnesota casino has cooked up a world-record bacon cheeseburger that's 3m in diameter and weighs more than a ton.

The behemoth burger was served up on Sunday at the Black Bear Casino Resort near Carlton. It tipped the scales at 914kg.

Guinness Records representative Philip Robertson verified the record for biggest burger. He called the feat a result of "remarkable teamwork" and said the burger "actually tastes really good."

A Duluth News Tribune report says the previous mark was a mere 400kg.
