Sausage Burrito

The McDonald’s Sausage Burrito is a quick-service breakfast item that wraps seasoned pork sausage, scrambled eggs, melted cheese, peppers, onions, and salsa inside a soft flour tortilla. It’s a compact, hand-held option from the McDonald’s breakfast menu designed for on-the-go eating.

As a fast food item, it sits in the Tex-Mex-inspired corner of the McDonald’s breakfast lineup, offering a change of pace from the chain’s more traditional McMuffin and hotcakes options. The filling balances savoury sausage with mild heat from the salsa and peppers.

Availability may vary by market — not all McDonald’s locations in Australia carry this item, as breakfast menus differ between regions and are updated periodically.

How it's made

The Sausage Burrito is assembled in McDonald’s kitchens from pre-prepared components. Seasoned pork sausage patties are cooked on the grill, scrambled egg mixture is prepared, and these are combined with a processed cheese slice or sauce, diced peppers, onions, and a portion of salsa inside a warmed flour tortilla. The tortilla is folded and wrapped for serving. All components arrive at the restaurant pre-portioned and partially prepared, following McDonald’s standardised preparation procedures.
