WE ALL love a limited edition menu drop, however, there is nothing more disappointing than discovering your new go-to order is only around for a limited time.
However, one McDonald’s fan has revealed how you can have a limited edition menu item all year round.
Fans were overjoyed when the fast food giant announced that The Big Tasty and The Big Tasty with Bacon would be returning to the menu in February.
They contain a beef patty, melty cheese made with Emmental, tomato, lettuce, onions and iconic Big Tasty sauce.
However, those hoping to get their hands on the burger need to be quick as it will be axed from the menu once again on March 12.
Luckily one Redditor has shared his method for recreating the patty’s signature smoky sauce at home.

To create the condiment, fans should simply combine the following ingredients:

- 2 teaspoons distilled vinegar.
- 2 teaspoons sugar.
- 3 pinches salt, about 1/4 teaspoon.

- 1/2 clove garlic, minced.
- 1 teaspoon liquid smoke
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil.
- 2 teaspoons paprika.
- 1 & 1/2 tablespoons ketchup.
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
While liquid smoke might seem a little out there, it can be purchased for around £5 on Amazon.
