Officials said the burger, which features pepperoni, mozzarella, marinara sauce and nearly 2 pounds of beef, will debut exclusively at the Whopper Bar in Times Square early next month, the New York Daily News reported Thursday.

The sandwich comes served on a 9 1/2-inch sesame seed bun and is sliced into six pizza-style pieces.

Burger King Vice President John Schaufelberger said the NY Pizza Burger is a tribute to the city that also "demonstrates the type of menu offerings our guests can expect."

Schaufelberger said the Whopper Bar acts as an "innovation lab" for Burger King to pilot new menu items.
