Suns Out, 10-Inch Buns Out For Arizona Cardinal's New Gridiron Burger
The Cardinals have had a rough week with starting center A.Q. Shipley out for the season after tearing his ACL, but in his off time there’s a new challenge he can try to tackle: The Gridiron Burger.
According to intel from AZ Central reporter Katherine Fitzgerald, The Gridiron Burger includes:
-5 1/3 pound burger patties
-5 all-beef hot dogs
-5 bratwursts
-20 slices of American cheese
-8 slices of bacon
-8 eight chicken tenders
-12 ounces of fries
-lettuce
-pickles
-tanker sauce
-10 inch buns
It is a combination of just about every menu item from Section 102’s Gridiron Grill, and there wasn’t an exact science to creating it. Sean Kavanaugh, executive chef with Craft Culinary Concepts, and his team just wanted to see what would fit.
Hoooooo-ey! I haven’t seen buns like that (that are fine just the way they are) since..
If you can finish the $75 monstrosity on your own in less than an hour, you get a Cardinals jersey, your face on the Jumbotron at U of Phoenix Stadium, & hopefully a specially reserved toilet near your seat.
It kind of reminds me of the ‘Fat Bitch’ from the now defunct Sandwich U at WVU, except the only prize upon completion was hating yourself.. but after a night of poor life choices visiting friends freshman year of college, the cheesesteak crammed with mozzarella sticks & chicken fingers was a lifesaver. Extra honey mustard & a side of dignity please.
Every year stadium concessions for different teams come out with at least one wacky menu item. It’s attention grabbing, gets fans excited to be back at their beloved fields & no matter how bad it looks, if you cook it they will buy.
