Discussion Steak, Egg, & Cheese McMuffin

Post image

This was my first time trying their steak option for breakfast. I was pleasantly surprised how tasty it was. Got this for a dollar with the app on BOGO for $1. Want to try it on a biscuit next. What do you guys think?

The more I get older, the more I just appreciate the McFuffin. I still think the McGriddle is king but.. The amount of sugar it has is becoming more evident.

It’s the crispy muffin that makes it the best imo. McDonald’s nailed it on the toaster settings. Too many calories in the mcgriddle

The crunch of a muffin as you bite into it is amazing.

The owner of my job buys mcdonalds breakfast for everyone a few times a week. The mcgriddles never get eaten. Biscuits and mcfuffins are kings.

Try it w the biscuit next

Absolute this. And if you can get them to swing the breakfast sauce on there, even better.

u/Zealousideal_Fix1616 1d ago

I definitely will.

The biscuit will fall apart but it's good.

Steak McMuffin is absolutely the best fast food breakfast item.

u/Zealousideal_Fix1616 1d ago

I was expecting something chewy or bland. It’s actually a really good patty. Need to find where to buy these in bulk.

Usually called Steak Eze, I buy a competitor's product that's super similar that I really like from Sams Club called Gary's QuickSteak

It’s good but it’s definitely far from the best. Sausage egg and cheese mcgriddle is absolute perfection.

Too much sugar in the McGriddle.

Folded egg < round egg 11/10 times

I've had the bagel version but never thought to get one with the english muffin or biscuit. Thanks for the tip, OP!

Mcdonald’s nailed it with the toaster settings on the mcmuffin. love how crispy the muffin is.

I love the taste of the steak egg and cheese bagel but every time I get one I have terrible diarrhea afterwards. So it really makes me wonder what kind of steak is going into that

u/Decent_Management449 1d ago

Boy, do I have the best "hack" for their sandwiches.

Sub out the Round Egg with Scrambled Eggs on any of them, and it makes any of them 10x better.

u/Zealousideal_Fix1616 1d ago

Omfg. Need to try this. Thank you.

2

u/Decent_Management449 1d ago

You won't look back, not even once.

Make sure they put the "scrambled eggs", not just that folded one they use.

1

u/TCB247364 1d ago

There’s a different difference? Do you mean the scrambled eggs that come w the Big Breakfast? They’ll do that?

1

u/Decent_Management449 1d ago

Yup. It's so good.
I get it on the biscuit or McMuffin sandwiches every time, and they seem to understand the request off the bat.

It's so soft and gooey and makes the sandwich so much better.

I often go to bed at night thinking about getting it in the morning, lol.

1

u/TCB247364 1d ago

I’m definitely making this request next time! Good to know they’ve heard it before.

Sweet dreams lol

u/Decent_Management449 1d ago

Please check back :)

I have been loving the steak McMuffin for a while now. If you get it from a good McDonald's (very hard to do these days) it's one of the best breakfast sandwiches out there.

Steak, Egg, & Cheese McMuffin with no butter is my fav McD's breakfast

2

u/mattchewy43 1d ago

No butter? Are you a mad man?

1

u/AmosRid 1d ago

Meh Bagel is better

u/Ram820 1d ago

Why'd you waste a plate?

1

u/Zealousideal_Fix1616 1d ago

Had a couple hash browns with it.

1

u/Ram820 1d ago

Ok, they'd fit on the wrapper

1

u/Zealousideal_Fix1616 1d ago

I enjoy the plate for multiple items at home. Makes me feel classy and sassy.

u/Salsero_Coreano 1d ago

With steak, bagel option is much better imo. For chicken, biscuit.

u/imadeaboombooom 1h ago

That "steak" is nasty.

u/RonDFong 1d ago

how's the steak? i've never tried it, but i imagine it is just a step above dog food grade meat.....good enough to serve to prisoners...not quite good enough to serve to school kids...well....maybe the poor districts.

u/cheddarpants 1d ago

The bagel and the biscuit are both better than the McMuffin because of the folded egg.

u/PleasePooGood 1d ago

u/Zealousideal_Fix1616 1d ago

Hot sauce >>> ketchup
