For A More Filling McDonald's Chicken Sandwich, Order It German Style
Key Points:
- McDonald's operates over 38,000 locations worldwide, with nearly 14,000 in the U.S., but Germany's 1,382 locations offer a unique menu item called the Double Chickenburger, which features two crispy chicken patties, lettuce, and chili sauce.
- The German Double Chickenburger is considered more substantial and flavorful than the U.S. McChicken, thanks to the extra patty and the sweet, tangy chili sauce, which is available as a side dipping sauce in the U.S.
- To replicate the German-style Double Chickenburger at a U.S. McDonald's, customers can order a McChicken with an extra chicken patty and request creamy chili sauce on the side, using a plastic spoon to spread the sauce on the bun.
- While the regular McChicken ranked 14th out of 38 in Tasting Table's McDonald's food ranking due to its lack of toppings, the German-style upgrade adds more flavor and substance, addressing those criticisms.
- Variations of the Double Chickenburger exist in other countries, and some U.S. locations offer a Double McChicken with mayo instead of chili sauce; customers should clearly describe their desired order when requesting off-menu items to ensure accuracy.
