The menu addition has already been a big hit across the pond, which leads McDonald\u2019s execs to believe the new Big Mac will be well-received stateside as well. USA Today <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/story\/money\/food\/2022\/08\/21\/mcdonalds-chicken-big-mac-united-states\/7860782001\/\">reported<\/a> that the chicken Big Mac was such a sensation there that it sold out completely in two weeks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re always looking to give our fans more ways to enjoy the classic menu items they know and love,\u201d McDonald\u2019s said in a statement. \u201cMade with two crispy tempura chicken patties, our iconic Big Mac sauce, and topped off with pickles, shredded lettuce, and American cheese, this sandwich brings some of our fans\u2019 favorite flavors together for the perfect bite.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The chicken-based sandwich will debut for a limited time in certain Miami locations. If it\u2019s successful, there\u2019s a chance of this alternative Big Mac being expanded to other regions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChicken continues to be a significant opportunity for us. \u2026 We\u2019ve got some great global equities already in our McNuggets and with McChicken, but we also have some equities in McCrispy and McSpicy that we think we\u2019ve got an opportunity to do more with globally. So that\u2019s going to be a priority area,\u201d McDonald\u2019s CEO Chris Kempczinski said in a Q2 earnings call, per the Post.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile not everything we test makes it on our U.S. menus, we\u2019ll use this time to gather feedback from both customers and restaurant crew as we consider opportunities to offer more delicious options in the future,\u201d the company said.<\/p>\n<p>McDonald\u2019s is the highest-grossing fast food chain in the United States, but Chick-fil-A has been steadily climbing in popularity and bested Burger King as of 2020 to become the second most popular fast food restaurant on the list, per <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxbusiness.com\/lifestyle\/chick-fil-a-lands-behind-mcdonalds-as-second-highest-grossing-fast-food-chain\">Fox News<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, a poll by the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.franchisewire.com\/why-is-chick-fil-a-better-than-mcdonalds\/\">found<\/a> that Chick-fil-A was far more popular with customers from a satisfaction standpoint. It topped the poll with a score of 83 on the scale, while McDonald\u2019s only achieved a score of 70.<\/p>\n<p>The items used to calculate satisfaction included staff courtesy and helpfulness, checkout\/delivery speed, the accuracy of the order, restaurant layout and cleanliness, food and beverage variety and quality, mobile app quality and reliability, and website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>McDonald\u2019s is bringing a popular U.K. menu item to its American customers as the so-called \u201cchicken sandwich wars\u201d rage on.
