Halligan Bar & Grill to be featured on Food Network’s “Ginormous Foods” Friday night
The Short Pump restaurant’s “flatliner,” a three-pound sandwich featuring a half-pound burger, pulled pork, and beef brisket, is the star of the episode.
The Halligan Bar & Grill in Short Pump will make its television debut Friday night, the restaurant announced this week. The barbecue joint in West Broad Village is to be featured on a new Food Network show called “Ginormous Foods.”
Crews from the show shot a feature on Halligan’s monstrous sandwich known as the “flatliner,” a three-pound sandwich featuring a half-pound burger, Halligan’s pulled pork, and beef brisket separated by layers of melted cheddar and pepper jack cheeses, topped with beer-battered onion rings and Halligan’s special sauce. It’s served on a 6-inch bun with a side of slaw, a pound of seasoned fries and homemade pickles. Defibrillator sold separately.
The $28 sandwich is free if you can devour it whole in under 25 minutes.
The items featured on the show can be ordered at both Short Pump and 17th Street locations. All three of the restaurant’s locations will be airing the show at 8:00 PM this evening.
