Redonkadonk is a grilled burger with ham, bacon, cheese, egg and Spam inside two grilled cheese sandwiches made with extra-thick Texas Toast style bread. It is served by Portland, Oregon's BrunchBox food cart at SW Fifth and Stark.[1] It has been identified as one of the fattiest foods in the U.S. by Health.com[2][3] The sandwich is featured on the Cooking Channel's Eat St. show in its second episode.[4][5][6] The Cooking Channel includes the recipe on its website.[7][8]
The Redonkadonk competes on Portland's food truck and food cart scene against the Big-A** Sandwich's Gutbomb: "a basic Big-A** with double the meat, double the cheese and the girth of a fishbowl", as well as the Original Cheesus from the Grilled Cheese Grill: a Colby Jack and grilled onion grilled cheese sandwich and an American cheese grilled cheese sandwich with pickles encasing a one-third pound burger with lettuce, tomato, ketchup and mustard.[9]
