Matthew Mitnitsky, owner of Nonni's Italian Eatery in Concord, said Sunday that a 222.5-pound meatball was authenticated as the world's largest after being weighed by state weights and measures officials.This meatball weighs nearly 50 pounds more than *I* do. I can guarantee you that somewhere out there, some goombah is thinking to himself, "I could eat dat"... The AP has a picture of the monster meatball here in this article.
A Guinness Book of World Records official confirmed the big meatball as a record breaker and presented Mitnitsky with a plaque. The old record stood at 198.6 pounds.
Now, when this meatball rolls off the table it measures on the Richter scale...
That is all.

My record is a 42 ounce sirloin at the Texas Roadhouse.
How the fuck do you COOK something like that?
Weer'd Beard, I'm not sure but I bet they used up alot of carbon credits!
PISSED,
Something tells me that 223 pounds of ground beef ain't going down in one sitting... ;)
Weerd,
That was my first thought - I'll bet it's a brick oven like for pizzas or some setup like that.
Jay,
I may be dating myself, but I don't really care. After seeing this post, my first though was of the (very) old Alka Seltzer commercial where the main character comments, "Dat's a spicy meat-uh-ball !!!"
