Someone from the Chops & Hops restaurant in Watkinsville posted a photo Friday of the blue cheese-smothered steak sandwich on Facebook, along with a caption that said, "@chrisbrown, @rihanna and us teamed up for a (sic) award winning celebrity sandwich. Put your hands on this caribbean black and bleu sandwich."

"Chris Brown won't beat you up for eating this unless your name starts with a R and ends with A," the post said.

The restaurant's post was first reported by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Saturday.

Locals quickly pounced on the promotion, saying the chophouse showed bad taste in joking about Brown's 2009 Grammy evening attack.

"Never, never will we cross the threshhold of your restaurant," one woman wrote. "You've really blown it with this ad. Domestic violence is not a joking matter and never should be made to appear so. Mark us down as 2 lost customers."

"What a thoughtless thing to write," another poster wrote. "Think about all of the battered women trapped in abusive relationships."

The restaurant, which is located some 10 miles south of Athens and has a history of naming menu items for celebs, quickly apologized and yanked the sandwich from its menu.

"The owners of C&H would like to make sure everyone knows that we and our staff DO NOT SUPPORT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE," the restaurant said in a statement on Facebook. "Many of us have been affected by domestic violence in some manner and realize that this is no joke."

The managers also said it would donate six times the amount of money it made on sales of the burger to Project Safe Team 6, a non-profit that fights domestic violence.

Several customers on the eatery's Facebook page said it was the right move.

"Honestly the sandwich looks good and 'Black and Blue’ is a great name for it,' one woman wrote on Saturday. "However if you plan on bringing it back I might suggest you name it after an MMA fighter, or hockey player... anything except a woman who was beaten."
