The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a food safety alert Tuesday regarding an E. coli outbreak that it says is linked with McDonald’s Quarter Pounders.
Unless something has changed, “1:4 meat” comes shipped frozen in big boxes just like “1:10 meat”. I don’t think I’ve ever seen fresh not frozen burger at a McDonald’s.
They are kept unfrozen next to the grill, unlike the regular patties that remain frozen. It is not the same, even if they are shipped the same. My point being, if its not the patties then what is it? The onions/pickles are on other sandwiches as well so its unlikely to be completely unrelated to how the burgers are handled.

Burger patties for the Quarter pounder are not frozen unlike the patties for the smaller burgers. It could be the meat.

Sir, this isn’t a Wendy’s :D
They started doing “fresh” a couple years ago for QPC
Didn’t know that. I sit corrected.
