Shake Shack’s beautiful ShackBurger just got… supersized—and the world is very happy about that. The brand-new (as of last week) burger is called The Big Shack and it’s two quarter-pound beef patties made of 100 percent Angus, slathered with secret sauce (a creamy, tangy version of the regular Shack Sauce) and adorned with green leaf lettuce, melted American cheese, thick-cut dill pickles, hand-sliced onions and tomatoes, all delivered on a buttered, toasted potato bun—plus an extra bun in the middle. This behemoth of a burger is only $9.99 and is available for a limited time at all Shake Shacks locations nationwide.

Shake Shack’s Instagram post about the new delicacy was met with immediate enthusiasm. The company posted about a dozen images of the burger being assembled, a picture run-through of the process that almost feels like flipping the pages of a book.

“We set out to create something bigger and bolder than anything we've done before,” said the company’s executive chef and vice president of culinary innovation John Karangis in an official statement. “The Big Shack is a super stacked burger, built with premium ingredients, an extra bun in the middle and a new secret sauce that brings a whole new flavor dimension. Made to order with the care our guests expect, the Big Shack delivers serious craveability and undeniable value in every bite."

Although we don't know how long the burger will be available for, we suggest you snag one ASAP and perhaps post about your craving. 

Remember when the public's devotion to the then-newly launched Dubai chocolate pistachio shake led to its permanent addition to the fast food chain's menu?
