half-pounder
Eight-ounce beef patty
A half-pounder is something weighing half a pound, most often a burger patty or the sandwich built around it: I ordered a half-pounder with cheese.
The term appears in casual restaurant contexts, positioned between quarter-pounder and full-pound offerings.
It can also describe fish or other items sold by weight.
