So, how much meat is actually in a McDonald's burger? The answer might surprise you. A standard McDonald's beef patty weighs in at around 2.8 ounces, which is roughly the same weight as a small apple.
To put that into perspective, imagine you're at a bbq with friends and someone throws a small steak on the grill. That's essentially what you're getting in a McDonald's burger, albeit in a more compact and convenient package. But is it enough to satisfy your meat cravings?
The amount of meat in a McDonald's burger can vary depending on the type of burger you order. For example, a Big Mac has two patties, which means you're getting around 5.6 ounces of meat, roughly the same weight as a small can of tuna. Not bad, but still not a whopping amount of meat.
