WHY do you want ten slices of bacon on your burger? Why do you want your burger to be twice as tall as it is wide? That is a grossly pornographic take on the idea of a hamburger, or food in general.
If you want "more Dick's", you can easily get more Dick's; just order two. If you want to improve on it, try making one like it only with better ingredients. This conception is just grotesque, like throwing everything in a blender and mixing it. It's stunt food. How I wish stunt food would die a horrible death. I'm holding out for BETTER food.
Having tried this one a couple of times I would definitely say the ingredients are far, far superior to what you would get on a regular Dick's Deluxe. And while 10 slices of maple-cured bacon may seem excessive, it actually doesn't overpower the rest of the burger, as one might naturally think.
Also, like most food porn, the image tends to be more carefully "manicured" (for want of a better word) than what actually ends up on your plate, so it really comes out looking not quite as structurally unstable as this, and I'd say the dimensions are about 1.5:1 rather than 2:1.
Seriously, it's a damned fine burger; pricey, but still tasty. Definitely not the sort of thing you'd want to eat on a regular basis, but it makes a nice meat-treat when you want something a few notches above the ordinary.
Actually, it's harder to not improve on a Dick's Deluxe. Dick's Burgers are horrible, disgusting McDondald's circa 1984 style hamburgers. Of course, I grew up eating In-N-Out, so my baseline for classic-style burger joints is pretty high.

Tasty! Thought I avoid burgers with bacon like the plague. I got the one with onions and gruyere, and that was a damn fine burger.
@10 FTW--anyone who thinks the Deluxe is "the best burger in town" either has never eaten a hamburger outside the city limits or orders the SEATTLE FUCK YEAH Kool-Aid every time along with the Deluxe and fries.
@7, name one thing I've ever been wrong about in the area of food. It's certainly not this kind of Guy Fieri-style stunt food, which is as embarrassing as Bailo's Claim Jumper monstrosity, only with less hipsterism. Food isn't about ramming as much crap into your gullet as you possibly can, and a hamburger isn't about a pound of meat or ten pieces of bacon. What do you think that thing comes in at, calorie-wise? Four thousand? Five? That's just obscene. I am not wrong.
...add to that that the owners of Dick's want to kill public education in Seattle and are boardmembers and contributors to the execrable Evergreen Freedom Foundation and you have another good reason to buy your burgers elsewhere.
Why the fuck is there bacon in an homage to the Dick's Deluxe? Also, that "burger" has exceeded the proper ingredients ratio and should now be referred to as a "meat sandwich," which sounds gross, because it is.
It looks like the stranger also suggests grabbing whatever images you like and posting them where you damn well please. WTF? I though the Slog was better than that. Totally lame. How much would you like it if someone went around copy/pasting your writing on another website without paying you, asking permission or even crediting you? I'm guessing not very much.

Ten slices of bacon. I ask you.

I just had a burger like that at Claim Jumper in Tukwila.
It's a burger with bacon, cheddar and fried onion rings on top...right in the bun!
They call it...The Widowmaker.

In fact, if you can remember what it tasted like you're doing it wrong.
For lunch I chose a burger with a fried egg on it. It worked.
My friend commented that it was like lunch and breakfast.
I rejoindered, could the McEgg Burger be far behind?
