Tom Maicon locates planet’s hottest burger

Tom Maicon of Food & Beer Atlanta writes to let me know he has found the hottest hamburger outside hell. His article about it says this:

Trust me when I tell you that the warning next to the Hell Burger on the menu at Canvas Cafe and Bakery (724 Cherokee Street, Marietta, Tel: 678.213.2268) isn’t just there for show, nor is the “no return” policy. These written cautions and disclaimers are as serious as the burger’s prickly punch.

It starts as a harmless 8oz. cayenne pepper-dusted certified Black Angus patty. But it quickly goes downhill from there as a handful of fiery chilies and four chunks of roasted jalapeno — carefully cut so to contain as many seeds as possible — are added. Then, it is dressed with a messy heaping pile of habanero and onion slaw.

Incredibly, there’s even more fire in the burger. Check out the link above to learn the rest of the ingredients.
