Review: Carl's Jr. - Maple Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit

Carl's Jr.'s (also Hardee's but I live on the West Coast) Maple Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit features three maple sausage links, a slice of American cheese, and egg in a fresh-made biscuit.

It's $2.69 for one but I received this one courtesy of Carl's Jr.

The biscuit had a nice, hard crust and soft, dense interior and seems a fair bit bigger than other fast food chains. That being said it's also a little too big for three sausages. It's pretty thick as well leaving me with a couple of less enjoyable sausage-less bites.

The sausages had a nice sear to them and looked pretty tasty. They ended up being just typical though; there was a little bit too much gristle and the maple flavor was a bit too light. I felt like I should have poured a little syrup on.

The egg was of the folded variety and was pretty soft and a little fluffy. The cheese was standard American and melt through.

Overall, Carl's Jr. Maple Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit felt like a pretty ordinary sausage breakfast biscuit with just a touch of maple and a little too much biscuit.
