McDonald’s is ready to debut what it’s calling its “best burgers ever.” The company announced on Monday it is making a few changes to its burgers, including new, softer buns and more Big Mac sauce on its signature Big Macs. Some tweaks have also been made to the cooking process to yield a more consistent sear and meltier cheese, and the company is adding white onions at the grill for a caramelized flavor.

The changes were first introduced in a few international markets, including Australia, Canada, and Belgium. They have already started rolling out in some markets on the West Coast and are now available in Los Angeles, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Sacramento, Phoenix, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Denver, Boise, Tucson, and surrounding cities. They will be available nationwide by 2024.
