News: McDonald's Testing New Steak and Egg Burrito

Falling behind bacon and sausage as the other other breakfast meat, steak has now and again found its way onto the McDonald's breakfast menu. This time around McDonald's is testing a new, limited-time Steak and Egg Burrito to the Northeast U.S.

The Steak and Egg Burrito has been available in the Northeast since December and is essentially the same as a Sausage and Egg Burrito except with steak instead of sausage. Specifically, it's filled with actual pieces of steak (and not steak patty like the Steak and Egg McMuffin test), peppers, onions, scrambled eggs, American cheese, and salsa roja (i.e. red sauce).

It's being offered in the New York metro area at a promotional price of two for $3, but seems to be offered at a price ranging from $1.59 to $1.99 otherwise, depending on location.

This is not the first time McDonald's has put steak in a flour tortilla; when the McSkillet burrito was first launched in 2007, steak was available as an option.

It seems to be making the rounds; the Steak and Egg Burrito was also tested in Atlanta, GA back in March of last year as well as Kentucky around the same time.

Here's a TV spot that currently airing for the burrito:

  2. Just had the new McDonalds Steak and Egg burrito - wickedly lousy! Steak is dry with no flavor. Burrito still wrapped in those disgusting flour tortillas that are dry and crumbly. Save dried out scramble eggs you get on their regular breakfast burrito....Product is just a re-hash of their breakfast burrito with dried out steak(?). Calling it steak is questionable....Stay away and save your money.......

    I love how people complain about the quality of the food at a McDonalds. Obviously the steak isn't going to be 5 star restaurant quality. That being said, I just ate one and as far as fast food breakfast goes, it's quite tasty.

  4. McD’s steak burrito is a f^#@% joke! First bite, almost all tortilla…second bite, no steak…third bite little pieces of meat – they’re not even steak if you ask me. STAY AWAY!!!

  5. I bought the steak burrito. Thought it was just steak. What a disappointment that was! Little tiny pieces if some meat, could've been hamburger with some egg. Not buying it again!
