Funnel Cake Cheeseburgers

The Big Mother Funnel Burger is Coming to a Ballpark Near You

The Big Mother Funnel Burger is an unconventional creation by chef Tim Hansen. Using funnel cakes in place of burger buns, this dish is cheesy and sweet.

Just in time for the minor league baseball season, this interesting dish has been recently added to the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers ballpark menu. Dubbed The Big Mother Funnel Burger, this dessert hybrid features a one pound beef patty topped with eight slices of bacon, half a pound of cheese and lettuce. Holding it all together are two funnel cakes in place of buns. The funnel cakes are topped with powered sugar for a sweet twist on a usually savory dish.

The Big Mother Funnel Burger contains 3,500 calories and comes with a $20 price tag. It is only available at the Appleton stadium in Wisconsin.
