Sausage McGriddles

The Sausage McGriddles is a breakfast item from the McDonald’s menu that pairs a pork sausage patty with sweet, pancake-style griddle cakes. The griddle cakes contain pockets of maple-flavoured syrup baked into the batter, creating a sweet-and-savoury combination in each bite.

It sits within McDonald’s breakfast range as an alternative to muffin or biscuit-based sandwiches, drawing on the American tradition of pairing pancakes with sausage. While more commonly found on US menus, it appears in select international markets as part of the breakfast lineup.

How it's made

The Sausage McGriddles is assembled in-store from pre-prepared components. A seasoned pork sausage patty is cooked on a flat grill, then placed between two griddle cakes — soft, round pancake-style buns that have been factory-made with maple-flavoured syrup crystallised into the batter. The sandwich is wrapped and served hot.
