Grab your stretchy pants and a wad of napkins, because McDonald’s newest menu item means business. While the Big Mac is arguably one of the chain’s most iconic and hefty burgers with its two beef patties, American cheese, lettuce, onion, pickles, and Big Mac Sauce sandwiched between three sesame seed buns, their newest creation may give it a run for its money.
Introducing the Big Arch Burger: two quarter-pound beef patties with three slices of white Cheddar cheese, crispy and slivered onions, lettuce, pickles, and Big Arch Sauce sandwiched between toasted sesame seed buns. While the new burger has had a lot of success in other international markets, it will be making its American debut for the first time on March 3, 2026, but only for a limited time.
