Soon you'll be able to order the size that's just right. The fast food chain [announced Thursday](http://news.mcdonalds.com/US/news-stories/McDonald-s-USA-to-Introduce-Two-New-Burgers-Inspir) that it plans to introduce two new sizes to his most famous menu offering: the Grand Mac and the Mac Jr. The menu change will start in early 2017 and will be a limited-time offer to reignite interest in the nearly 50-year old Big Mac. The Grand Mac has two beef patties and two slices of cheeses, and weighs a third of a pound. The Mac Jr. has one regular beef patty. ![100_big-mac-event-graphic-final](https://img.money.com/2016/11/100_big-mac-event-graphic-final.jpg?quality=85) The company tested the new offerings in Columbus, Ohio and Dallas, where the Mac Jr. cost between $2.39 to $2.59; the Grand Mac was $4.89, according to [industry news sources](http://burgerbusiness.com/mcdonalds-adding-mac-jr-grand-mac/). McDonald's rarely tweaks with its iconic burger, but it has made a lot of other changes to its offerings recently in hopes of turning around declining sales, including experimenting with made-to-order burgers and introducing all-day breakfast. ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@graph": [ { "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "@id": "https://money.com/mcdonalds-big-mac-grand-jr/#breadcrumb", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "name": "Home", "item": "https://money.com" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "name": "Lifestyle", "item": "https://money.com/lifestyle/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "name": "Restaurants", "item": "https://money.com/restaurants/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 4, "name": "McDonald's Big Mac Gets Even Bigger" } ] }, { "@type": "WebSite", "@id": "https://money.com/#website", "url": "https://money.com", "name": "Money", "publisher": { "@id": "https://money.com/#organization" } }, { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://money.com/mcdonalds-big-mac-grand-jr/#webpage", "url": "https://money.com/mcdonalds-big-mac-grand-jr/", "name": "McDonald's Big Mac Gets Even Bigger", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://money.com/#website" }, "datePublished": "2016-11-04T15:50:39.000Z", "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://money.com/mcdonalds-big-mac-grand-jr/" }, "inLanguage": "en-US", "breadcrumb": { "@id": "https://money.com/mcdonalds-big-mac-grand-jr/#breadcrumb" }, "dateModified": "2024-05-16T11:58:05.000Z" }, { "@type": "Article", "headline": "McDonald's Big Mac Gets Even Bigger", "articleSection": "Lifestyle", "image": [ { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://img.money.com/2016/11/gettyimages-121802310.jpg", "width": 5708, "height": 3791, "caption": "mcdonalds-big-mac" }, { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://img.money.com/2016/11/100_big-mac-event-graphic-final.jpg?quality=85", "width": 800, "height": 392 } ], "author": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "Kaitlin Mulhere", "url": "https://money.com/author/kaitlin-mulhere/", "@id": "https://money.com/author/kaitlin-mulhere/#author", "description": "Kaitlin Mulhere is an editor at Money.com.
