McDonald's Bacon, Egg and Cheese McGriddles is for people who want hotcakes, bacon, egg, and cheese but in altogether in a quick-to-eat and portable form i.e. a sandwich.
Basically, the McGriddles is a breakfast sandwich featuring mini, thick fluffy pancakes embedded with little pockets of maple syrup sandwiching the standard breakfast combination of bacon or sausage, eggs, and cheese.
Prices will vary but around here it's
$3.89 for breakfast combo with hash browns and coffee or $2.89 for a Bacon, Egg and Cheese McGriddle alone.
In a bit of Mc-branding each pancake is pressed with a McDonald's logo. The pancake itself is fairly thick and fluffy but with the maple syrup it is a little too sweet and overrides the more mild flavors of the cheese, bacon, and eggs.
The bacon was mostly thin, crisp texture but I could taste its savory, smoky here and there. The cheese was nicely melted and provided a creamy element, while the eggs were nice and fluffy.
I would say the Bacon, Egg and Cheese McGriddle is mostly sweet with some savory elements.
Still, it's enjoyable and an interesting answer to a question that perhaps no one was asking but hey, it's still on the menu right? I prefer the more conventional breakfast starch of a biscuit or English muffin though.
