Burger King is launching a sandwich big enough to topple its competition – at least that’s what it’s hoping.

The regal fast food chain announced today that it is releasing the Big King XL sandwich that has 175 percent more beef than the McDonald’s Big Mac.

To celebrate the launch, Burger King will be offering a free Big King XL in exchange for MacCoins – coins that were handed out by McDonald’s in honor of the Big Mac’s 50th anniversary last year. The MacCoins were good for one free Big Mac sandwich through December 31, 2018. Now Burger King has announced the MacCoins can be used for one more day.

“Now that the MacCoins have expired, Burger King is giving people one more day to use their MacCoins, but this time for the bigger, flame-grilled option.”

On January 18, guests can exchange their coins for a free XL sandwich. MacCoinless customers can still enjoy the new flame-grilled burger, just for a slightly higher price of $5.99.

    Hey,,,, wait a minute,,,,, I paid over $8 for some of my Big Mac Coins.
    I am not trading an $8 coin for a Burger King XL sandwich.
    Trading my $8 Big Mac Coins for a $5.99 Burger King XL sounds like a loser to me.

    I haven't eaten at Burger king or Macd's in decades and I'm not going to start now. I would however drive to Whitehouse subs on Arctic in AC for their cheeseburger hoagie on freshly baked Italian bread. Peace Roy

    Nobody outside of NJ has a clue where AC is...…….had to chuckle. But the sandwich sounds good.

    Sometimes free is the most expensive. I excessively avoid processed and fast foods.

    All their subs are excellent. The walls are plastered with b&w photos of famous people who dropped by to make and eat a sub. And the place was opened by a WW2 vet.
