    Grilled Beast of Midtown East at Pullman Kitchen ($25)Okay so this one's more than a little stunty, as you get a free "I Conquered..." t-shirt if you finish it, but the Pullman Kitchen's Grilled Beast certainly qualifies as a heart attack on a plate. There are two kinds of melted cheese in the sandwich, loads of bacon and ham and fried chicken, a mess of spicy peppers, fried kale (who let that in here?), and two full cornbread waffles covered in maple syrup, all between slices of sourdough bread. Comes with waffle fries and a pile of pickles because at this point why the hell not. The Pullman Kitchen is at 959 Second Avenue (thepullmankitchen.com)
    The DSNY Hero at Anthony and Son ($12)There are plenty of choices at this old-school Williamsburg sandwich shop if you're looking to indulge, but the DSNY Hero may be Anthony and Sons most wonderfully fiendish creation. Here, in one hefty package, you get greasy griddled steak, thick-cut fries, a fried egg and some bacon (because why not eat breakfast too?), brown gravy, and two kinds of melted cheese: muenster and cheddar. This is all encompassed by buttered garlic bread. Get it with one of their extra-thick Nutella Milkshakes and take a seven-year nap.Anthony and Son Panini Shoppe is at 433 Graham Avenue (anthonyandsonpaninishoppe.com)
    The Triple Bacon Cheeseburger at Hard Times Sundaes ($13.75)When the beloved Brooklyn-based food truck opened a stand in the Vanderbilt Market near Grand Central last spring, huge new swaths of the population could quicken their pace towards cardiac arrest with Andrew Zurica's delicious towers of cheese-drenched meat. Sure, you don't have to get the triple at Hard Times Sundaes, nor do you need to add bacon or chili, but c'mon! You're never going to get the "likes" you deserve without it.Hard Times Sundaes is at UrbanSpace Vanderbilt, 230 Park Avenue (hardtimessundaes.com)
