An Australian cafe is claiming a world record after cooking a giant hamburger with an 81 kg (178 lb) patty that took 12 hours to cook and four men to flip.

　　澳大利亚一家餐厅日前做出了世界上最大的汉堡，这个汉堡的肉饼重达81公斤（合178磅），制作耗时12个小时，光是肉饼翻面就需要四个人一起完成。

　　The monster burger cooked up by Sydney cafe owners, Joe and Iman El-Ajouz, weighed in at 90 kg in total, eclipsing the previous record of 84 kg, set in Michigan in the United States.

　　这个巨无霸汉堡由悉尼一家餐厅的老板乔和伊曼·埃尔-阿朱兹夫妇制作而成，总重达90公斤，打破了之前美国密歇根州84公斤汉堡王的纪录。

　　"Just flipping the patty was the main challenge for us, but it all went well," Iman El-Ajouz told the reporters.

　　伊曼·埃尔-阿朱兹告诉记者：“对于我们来说，最大的挑战其实就是肉饼翻面，但整个制作过程还算顺利。”

　　"My husband had to prepare special metal holders and a metal plate, he had one at the bottom one at the top, locked them together and they flipped the burger with that," she added.

　　她说：“为制作这个汉堡，我丈夫特地准备了特制的金属支架和一个金属托盘，分别放在肉饼的底部和上面，扣牢之后几个人一起来给它翻面。”

　　The giant burger contained the giant beef patty, 120 eggs, 150 slices of cheese, 1.5 kg of beetroot, 2.5 kg of tomatoes and almost 2 kg of lettuce all topped off with a special sauce on a giant sesame seed bun. It was eaten by employees at the cafe.

　　这个汉堡的两面是两片巨大的芝麻面包，中间夹了一块巨大的牛肉肉饼，此外还用了120个鸡蛋、150片奶酪、1.5公斤甜菜根、2.5公斤西红柿和近2公斤生菜，另外还用了一种特制的调味酱。餐厅的雇员们一同分享了这个大汉堡。

　　The variety of burger will be on the menu at the cafe for the next year in order to meet the conditions for a Guinness world record, but will set hungry patrons back around A$1,500 ($1,220).

　　为满足世界吉尼斯纪录的申请条件，这家餐厅将于明年将这种巨无霸汉堡列在菜单上，但它的售价高达1500澳元（1220美元），可能会让食客们望而却步。
