FAQs ;Sausage, Egg & Cheese McGriddles®

How do I order a Sausage, Egg & Cheese McGriddles without the sausage?

You can ask for an “egg and cheese McGriddles” when ordering. Some staff may need to ring it up as a customized item or modify an existing sandwich.

Can I get a Chicken McGriddle instead of sausage?

Chicken McGriddles are not always on the national menu but may be available regionally. Some stores may allow substitutions with a crispy or grilled chicken patty.

Can I substitute the folded egg with a round egg in McGriddles?

Yes, many McDonald’s allow egg substitutions. Request a round egg instead of the folded egg when ordering.

Can I add bacon to the Sausage, Egg & Cheese McGriddles?

Yes, you can customize the sandwich by adding bacon or even doubling the meat if available at your location.

Why do McGriddles sometimes taste sweeter or stickier than usual?

The maple flavor is infused into the griddle cakes and can vary slightly in sweetness. This sometimes leads to a stickier texture depending on how they’re prepared.

Are McGriddles served during lunch or dinner?

Is there a meal deal for the Sausage, Egg & Cheese McGriddles?

Can I make McGriddles at home?

While not identical, you can make a DIY version using mini pancakes or maple-infused buns, along with sausage, egg, and cheese.

Why was I given a McMuffin instead of a McGriddle?

This is a common mix-up, especially when requesting modifications. Always double-check your receipt and order at the drive-thru or counter before leaving.

Are there McGriddles with just egg and cheese?

Yes, you can request to remove the meat and keep only egg and cheese, though some locations may charge the same or slightly adjust the price.

Is the McGriddles bun gluten-free?

No, the griddle cakes contain wheat flour, making them unsuitable for gluten-free diets.

Can I get a McGriddle with no cheese?

Yes, you can request the sandwich without cheese either in-store or through the mobile app.

Do McGriddles contain high-fructose corn syrup?

No, McGriddles are made with maple-flavored griddle cakes, but they do not list high-fructose corn syrup in their primary ingredients.

Can I reheat a leftover McGriddles?

Yes, you can reheat it in the microwave for 30–45 seconds or in a toaster oven. Wrapping it in a paper towel helps maintain texture.
