why not get extra cheese if you do this?

>>15568769
I aint paying a dollar just for some cheese

>>15568753
Why not just get a double qp add lettuce and mac sauce?

It’d be the better sandwich.

RIP in peace, Grand Mac ;_;

McDongle’a doesn’t do custom orders. In that, they will just give you a completely different sandwich from the one you asked for and forget all the customizations you asked for. This used to be possible to do there. No more.

Grand Mac was a hilarious piece of garbage.
The patties weren't bigger. Just the bread was bigger.

Funniest shit in the world. Big Mac's problem has always been that it's not enough meat. They reveal the GRAND MAC which sounds like the perfect answer. But, instead, it goes in the opposite direction and makes things worse.

They pissed on your leg and told you it was raining. And you bought it.

>The patties weren't bigger
But they were
Maybe your local McDonald’s cheated on ingredients?
Last I checked, a 75g patty has more mass than a 45g one. But I admit I’m not a mathematician.
>And you bought it.
A larger burger with more meat? Yes, I did.

>"Sorry we dont do custom orders here, order strictly off the menu please"

>>15568753
Just get a Big Carl® its the same thing but less bread and taste better

Or just get the double quarter pounder?? retard
what the fuck do you need the extra piece of bread for

>>15568753
Next time ask for two extra patties, extra veggies, mac sauce and see how they have to tape the lid close

>>15568753
I prefer either a Double Cheeseburger or a Quarter Pounder with Cheese

>>15569879
They actually had a 'secret' menu item for years. Any McDonald's I went to I could order a daily double and they always knew what it was despite it not being on the menu for a long time already. Wonder if that still works. I haven't tried it in a long time, but I suspect they magically forgot all about it.

>>15569883
he's a fatass

>>15568782
not really. The only difference here would be the bun, and the big mac bun is bigger.

>>15569902
I went through a macdalds drive thru (North Carolina) for a coworker something like a year and a half ago and she had me ask for that and they produced it no problem. This was also in a very high volume area to where it's probably one of the most profitable in the area so they might have staff trained much better than average, also evidenced by the fact that if it takes more than 90 seconds they apologize for the wait.

>>15568876
mac jr looks the best

>>15569962
I miss it, if and when I go through there for a quick lunch I'll never get more than a small cheeseburg or McChicken®, maybe a small fry if I'm really hungry, or a big mac really rarely, the mac jr was the best of both worlds. was dissapointed when it vanished, especially since they can obviously still make one but now you have to autistically ask for mac sauce and lettuce and won't get the sesame bun. Can't say I'm really surprised though, big mac has to be their best margined product behind maybe drinks

order a mcdouble instead of double cheeseburger, you only get 1 slice of cheese but it's 30 cents cheaper
or just order a double hamburger for $2 and skip out on cheese altogether

>>15569983
>order quarter pounder
>no mustard or ketchup
>add lettuce and mac sauce
there is your mac jr

>>15570011
that's 3x the meat and probably 4 or 5x the price since mac jr uses one small patty, as the big mac uses two small patties. not worth the difference for a sesame bun. I've done it before but it's fucking annoying since they ask three times what modifications you wanted and when they're that unsure it's hard to believe they'll actually get it right. maybe I should use the app but I don't want to. hell I did just that with a mcdouble a couple weeks ago and they gave me a sad dollop of mac sauce instead of actually enough for the small sandwich as if to say fuck you just order le big mac

>>15570004
>only time in my life I ordered a big mac with extra cheese
>took them like 5 minutes to get it out the window
>didn't really care, was on the clock and hungy
>mildly peeved they charged like 90 cents for the extra slice of cheese but again I was on the clock, the time spent waiting more than paid for it
>got the most fresh, picture-esque delicious mcdoalds sandwich of my life
I swear they must have thought I was from corporate or something

I have not been able to get anything like what you guys are talking about for months (and I've been trying). Fucked up every time. Pisses me the fuck off not doing it anymore you all can go fuck yourselves

>>15570080
maybe go to the burger store instead of getting pissed Hajib from Uber Eats getting paid $3/hr Plus Tip doesn't give a fuck about your sloppa

>>15568753
I get a double quarter pounder with cheese then I take it home and disassemble it. I then take the beef patties and put them on my own bread that I buy at the store and use cheese and sauce that I buy online and have delivered to my house. It’s much better than Big Mac

>>15569297
I have never, in my entire amerifat existence, heard this from a fast food place.

>>15570165
Most places will do it if it isn't a big hassle or it isn't peak rush hour.
Even if they don't, they probably won't tell you no, but they'll just make the order as normal and just bet you won't make a huge fuss, and even then you can just give them something else for free/apologize/whatever is most efficient. When I worked at MCD we this most often came up with people requesting fresh fries or unsalted fries, with the idea they would be fresh.
Making generic fast food workers put out extra effort for your personal sake is often like trying to get blood out of a stone.

>>15570145
why don't you just cook your own patties lol

>>15570705
Because you can’t replicate McDonald’s at home “lol”.

>>15569902
>>15569952
Big freaking secret its on the god damn mcdonalds website

>>15570165
They don't say it, of course, but they routinely fuck it up, and I'm pretty sure it's on purpose. The employees do it of their own volition because it's extra work in a fast paced job that they don't get paid for, and their employers probably also turn a blind eye to the extend that they can (most fast food eating Karen wannabes are too lazy to get out of their car and make them correct the order, much less complain to the manager) because custom orders are actually fucking up their business model, which is built from ground up on speed. Everyone getting their custom orders correctly further encourages them to keep doing it, which slows down the line for the customers behind them who just order off the menu and want their food fast. Everything is stacked against McDonald's custom ordering, which gives me every reason to believe the routine fucked up custom orders are almost by design.

>>15570666
Yeah, this exactly. McDonald's is not for custom orders, even if it seems somehow "wrong" that they wouldn't do it if you asked.

>>15570844
That's why the word "'secret'" is in quotation marks.

>>15569942
Yeah why the fuck wouldn’t I want more meat and less bun? It’s like you’re literally retarded.

>>15569249
Incorrect. It was 1/2 a pound of beef, or essentially a double quarter pounder with some extra bread, some lettuce and some sauce. They used the same patties as for the quarter ponder. A typical big mac uses the patties of a McDouble which are a little under 1/8th of a pound each (meaning that the meat in a Big Mac = slightly less than the meat in a quarter pounder, or 3.8 ounces to be exact).

If the cashier is new this will take 5min to input

>>15568947
Maybe they don't like you

>>15569900
the pictures like that...did you ever get a burger that looks like that?
its more like 10% of the covering that is showed on the picture

>>15571419
Asking for custom orders at a MCDs of all places will tend to do that, yes.
