McDonald’s is turning up the temperature with a few of its classic menu items.
The fast food giant announced Wednesday that restaurants in New York City will start selling a spicier, zestier and cheesier version of the Quarter Pounder with Cheese (QPC) with the immediate release of the Cheesy Jalapeño Bacon QPC and the Cheesy Jalapeño Bacon Double QPC.
The new additions include one (or two) of McDonald’s signature, fresh beef Quarter Pounders accentuated with thick-cut applewood-smoked bacon and pickled jalapeño slices, topped with a creamy cheese sauce on a toasted sesame seed bun.
Available as a single or double, the new items will be on sale for a limited time only.
Customers have also started to share information on social media about a new Cheesy Jalapeño Sausage Egg McMuffin with Cheese in select markets across the United States.
YouTuber Rhody Foody (aka Lupe Aguilar) got first dibs on the new grub, which consists of a hot sausage patty, jalapeños, a slice of American cheese, creamy cheese sauce, and a freshly cracked egg on a toasted English muffin.
“I should’ve got two of these,” he said between munches in a taste test video posted Tuesday. “They better not ever take this away. I bet you Egg McMuffin sales will go up.”
McDonald’s hasn’t officially confirmed these details, but there’s buzz that customers will be able to add the sauce and jalapeños to other breakfast sandwiches.
