Dad orders 'UK's biggest burger' from Burger King as birthday treat

A dad reckons he's ordered 'the UK's biggest burger' after demanding Burger King stack his bun with 36 beef patties for his birthday. Craig Harker wanted to celebrate his birthday in carnivorous style and chose to shun a sugary birthday cake and instead sink his teeth into the gut-busting 6,000-calorie meal.

The 36-year-old ordered a regular Burger King whopper meal and added an extra 35 patties - one to celebrate each year of his life - with a side of fries and washed down with Diet Coke. Footage shared on Facebook shows the pub owner casually ordering the monster £53.49 burger before being handed a bag so heavy he likened it to going to the gym.

When the dad-of-three unveiled the foot-high towering treat his eyes lit up and he sank his teeth into it. But the birthday boy's eyes proved to be bigger than his belly, and he was 'only' able to devour 12 of the £1.30 patties, before donating the rest to friends and family who live nearby.
