Grilled cheese is a staple food for children across America. But two Wisconsin brothers decided to take their version of grilled cheese sandwich to the next level.

Exodus and Iggy Chaudhry of Delavan, Wis., have been on a mission to break a world record on their YouTube channel, "The Exodus and Iggy Show." After conducting some research, the pair decided that making to world’s largest grilled cheese seemed like a reasonable feat.

Using a custom-welded pan, Exodus, 11, and Iggy, 10, along with family and friends, grilled up 300 lbs. of dough along with 60 lbs. of cheese. The feast took nearly one month to assemble, according to the duo.

The cheesy sandwich measured in at 6.25 feet wide, 10.9 feet long and 2.75 inches thick. Previously, the Guinness World Record title for the world's largest grilled cheese sandwich belonged to Cabot Creamery in Vermont. They set the record in 2000 with their sandwich weighing 320 pounds and measuring 5 feet wide, 10 feet long and 2.4 inches thick.
