McDonald’s has made a change to one of its most iconic burgers – but foodies will need to be quick before it disappears from menus again.

While the fast-food giant offers up 20 burgers in UK branches, its Big Mac has arguably become the firm fan-favourite since its launch in 1968. It features two 100 percent beef patties, a slice of cheese, lettuce, onions and pickles, alongside a dollop of Big Mac sauce.

However, this iconic feast has had a bit of a refresh in the UK and Northern Ireland, with the Golden Arches bringing back the Double Big Mac for a limited time. This super-sized burger costs £5.39, but can be bought as a medium meal for £7.19.

This crowd-pleaser boasts double the beef: four 100 percent British and Irish beef patties, twice the special Big Mac sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, and onions on a sesame seed bun.

The Express reports that Big Mac fans don’t have long to get their hands on the doubled-up delight, as it’s only available until November 19. Meanwhile, the Double Big Mac with bacon accompanies the return of the legendary burger.

First launched in 2020, the Double Big Mac quickly became a popular choice among burger enthusiasts who enjoyed the double serving. However, it was last seen on UK menus from July to September as part of the chain’s summer menu.

At present, a standard Big Mac is priced at £4.99, with customers shelling out an additional 40p for two extra beef patties. Since the chain switches up its menus every six weeks, it’s worth taking advantage of the super-sized burger while it is available over the next two weeks.

However, when the Double Big Mac eventually leaves once more after November 19, there might be more options to try out. It has been suggested that McDonald’s is set to unveil its festive menu from November 20.

Its festive menu this year is said to boast a variety of returning fan-favourites and new items to try out. This includes the return of the beloved Cheese Melt Dippers, alongside the brand new Terry’s Chocolate Orange Pie.

Until then, you can enjoy the Double Big Mac in participating stores until November 19.
