Burger King Japan’s Extreme Burger Is 1lb Of Meat And Doesn’t Mess With Buns

Whenever craving a fast-food burger, for me, the meatier, the better. When Burger King Japan dropped a new burger that featured an incremental amount of meat and nixed the burger buns, my jaw dropped.

The Japanese branch of the iconic Burger King chain just introduced the Extreme Burger.

Boasting more than 1 pound of meat, the sandwich features four juicy beef patties, tomato, lettuce, pickles, onions, and cheese.

Customers who find stability in burger buns may need to look elsewhere. Though a slightly more expensive version with buns, dubbed the Maximum Burger, is also available for purchase.

Available now at all Burger King locations in Japan, the burger is priced at 1400 yen (USD 13.50), making it more than three times the price of a Whopper in the country. Still, for more than a pound of burger, that sounds about right.
