<p>McDonald&#39;s is testing out a selection of premium burgers in the U.K. as it faces increased competition from fast-casual restaurants like Five Guys and Shake Shack.&nbsp;</p><p>The burgers will&nbsp;<a href="http://news.mcdonalds.com/Corporate/Global-Stories-Articles/2015/McDonald-s-UK-Signature-Collection" target="_blank">come in three varieties</a>, on a brioche-style bun, and with what McDonald&#39;s says is its thickest patty yet. They will start out in 28 stores and will later be available in the rest of the U.K.</p><p>Since the patties are so thick, customers will have to wait a little longer for their food, which will put McDonald&#39;s new table service to use.
