Two quarter-pound beef patties sit on a sesame seed bun with two slices of cheese, pickles, diced onion, mustard and ketchup. Before cooking, that’s half a pound of beef, which puts it at the top end of McDonald’s permanent burger range in Australia. Compared with the regular Quarter Pounder, it just adds another patty and another slice of cheese, so the structure stays familiar while the beef ratio jumps up. The bun, condiments and pickles do the same job here as they do across the lineup, holding everything together rather than taking centre stage.
