It might look like there were only three patties on here but I checked four times. I wasn’t sure whether to flash my lights at them or some other code…Īs you can see from the pictures, this looks well put together for a fast food burger costing under five pounds. Handing me my brown paper bag, I drove off in search of a parking space noticing other McDonald’s fans sat in their cars chomping away. I was back at the Drive Thru at the restaurant where the infamous quest began all those years ago – I’d placed my order via the My McDonald’s App which is a slick process and my preferred method of choice. Available to order in all its glory without the need of a “menu hack” to create your own…Īs with the majority of burgers at McDonald’s now, you can customise the DBM and these include adding the following Bacon (40p/80p), Cheese (20p), Ketchup, Mayonnaise, Mustard (all free) and/or Tomato (20p/40p). Since that “test”, we’ve seen double stacks on Great Tastes of America/The World, the Bacon Clubhouse Double, Grand Big Mac and more recently, the Double Quarter Pounder and Triple Cheeseburger (both now permanent additions to the menu).Īnd here we are, finally. The resurgence started by McDonald’s testing the waters with The Grand – anyone remember that one? Our review here. Ignoring the Double Cheeseburger, doubles or triples seemed to be a thing of the past. It’s also been a slow journey to the Double Big Mac “returning” to the UK after the fast food fallout of the Supersize Movie. Of course, I didn’t realise this (or even set out to), when we first asked a crew member if they could make us up a Double Big Mac… like the one on the McDonald’s Canada website. Very few websites were interested in the new promotion(s) at The Golden Arches and trying to find out limited time burgers prior to 2012 is nigh impossible. If you don’t believe me, just “Google” Great Tastes of America 2013 or 2012 or before and compare that to nowadays.
And media and other lifestyle outlets rarely reported on the next LTO. When I first started this website, you didn’t know what new burger was going to be available at McDonald’s until the day of release. Remember those?Īnother aspect that has altered in those 8 years is the promotion and reporting of what is coming next at McDonald’s. The landscape of fast food has changed dramatically in those 8 years – just some that spring to mind include kiosk and app ordering, McDelivery et al and even operationally… so that all food is made to order instead of sitting in those old heating bays. Writing this review, I feel a sense of nostalgia thinking back to when The Fellowship of the Double embarked on their journey to find the Double Big Mac. I personally can’t see the difference – could someone at “MacDonalds” let us know please? McDonald’s tell us fans that the Double Big Mac and Mega Mac are two different entities and that it is the first time the Double has been on-sale in the UK. In the distant past, the Mega Mac has been on-sale in this country and it also features permanently or promotionally on menus in other regions across the globe. Our quest for the Double Big Mac started 8 years ago on a fledgling BURGER LAD® website, but it hasn’t appeared on the UK menu for much longer than that. The quest for the Double Big Mac is finally over.įrom Wednesday 18th November, the four beef patty version of the flagship burger will be available at McDonald’s until Tuesday 29th December as part of the 2020 Festive Menu.
