McDonald's brings back 'everyone's favorite sandwich' - but there's a catch

McDonald's announced the return of "everyone's favorite sandwich" to its menu - but for a limited time only.

The fast-food giant confirmed the Smoky BLT Quarter Pounder with Cheese and the Smoky BLT Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese are making a comeback two years after their initial launch.

These sandwiches , which will only be available while supplies last, feature a quarter-pound beef patty, American cheese, Applewood Smoked Bacon, tomato, shredded lettuce, and a "special, smoky BLT sauce" on a toasted sesame seed bun.

"Get ready to experience a sweet and tangy, savory and garlicy sauce that has a lingering smokiness," said the McDonald's Menu Spotter.

The sandwiches will be available from July 10. McDonald's officials have recognized that their customers are seeking more value as inflation drives up the cost of everything including Big Macs .

A recent study revealed that McDonald's had the fifth highest average meal price at $7.57, a 22% increase over 2022 ($6.21), reports Fox 31. The most expensive was Five Guys, at $20.84, a 13.7% increase over the 2022 average.

In June, the company unveiled its limited-time $5 Meal Deal, designed to provide diners with a more affordable option.
