Well, it looks like the fast-food titan McDonald's is jumping on that bandwagon too, spilling the beans on its own covert menu items, with one standout creation dubbed the "McGangB*ng." It's essentially a monstrous mashup of a double cheeseburger and a McChicken patty, all rolled into one artery-clogging feast.
Now, if you're feeling adventurous enough to sink your teeth into this fast-food Frankenstein, all you gotta do is order up a Double Cheeseburger and a McChicken, then play mad scientist and combine 'em. Oh, and it might not hurt to have a trusty bottle of Tums on standby. You know, just in case.
From Eat This, Not That:
Mike Haracz, a former McDonald's corporate chef turned TikToker, posted a viral video last week revealing how to order a secret burger that he referred to as the "McGangB*ng." He explained that this "monstrosity" of a burger consists of a classic Double Cheeseburger (450 calories) with a McChicken patty added into the mix.
Customers interested in trying the burger may want to avoid asking for it by name because several TikTokers commented that McDonald's employees tend to be very confused by the request. However, customers can still get their hands on the creative sandwich by ordering a Double Cheeseburger and a McChicken (400 calories) and then adding the McChicken patty onto the burger.
Per Haracz, the secret burger used to be much more popular when the Double Cheeseburger and McChicken were featured on McDonald's old dollar menu, which has since been replaced with a tiered value menu.
"You could get this massive burger and assemble it yourself for like two bucks," he said.
But nowadays, customers will likely have to pay significantly more if they want to try the secret burger. While prices can vary by location, a McDonald's store in central New Jersey is currently charging $3.49 for a McChicken and $3.49 for a Double Cheeseburger. That would add up to about $7 for anyone who orders the sandwiches separately and then combines them.
But how does it taste? Good enough to order again and again, at least according to the customers who've gotten the chance to try it in the past.
"I eat these all the time," one TikToker commented on Haracz' video.
"It's my go-to order," another wrote.
