Procedure:
Discard the crown half of the regular bun, retaining the heel. The cooking method for the Big Mac™ is basically the same as the regular burgers, only the bun toasting method is slightly
different.

In the Big Mac's case you toast the bottom (heel) first. Do this along with the extra
heel. (this will be your middle bun.)

Cook the two-all-beef-patties just like the regular burgers. After the bun parts are toasted, put 1
tablespoon of "Mac sauce" on each of the heels.(toasted side.) Then add 1/8 cup shredded lettuce to each.

On the true bottom bun, place one thin slice of American cheese on top of the lettuce. On the extra "heel", the middle bun, place two pickle slices on top of the lettuce. Toast the "crown" (top) of the bun also.

When the meat patties are done, place them one at a time on both prepared buns. Stack the middle bun on top of the bottom bun, and put the crown on top.

McDonald's Arch Deluxe®

Ingredients:
1 sesame seed hamburger bun (potato roll style with split crown)
1/4 pound Topps beef patty
1 slice American cheese
1-2 tomato slices
1-2 lettuce leaves, chopped
1 Tablespoon ketchup
1 Tablespoon chopped white onion
McDonald's hamburger seasoning

THE SECRET SAUCE:
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon Grey Poupon Specialty peppercorn mustard

Procedure:
1. In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and the Dijon mustard. Set aside. This is the secret sauce.
2. Toast the face of each of the buns on a griddle as described in all other recipes.
3. Follow Quarter-Pounder cooking instuctions for the beef patty.
4.Refer to the diagram above how to arrange the hamburger.

Tips:
If you want an Arch Deluxe with bacon, pre-cook some thick sliced Hormel® pepper bacon, breaking one slice per burger in half. Lay the halves side by side on top of the cheese before adding the meat. (Or just use thick sliced bacon, adding a dash of pepper when cooking.)
