Price, calories, meal contents and deal status
Which McGriddles Option Should You Choose?
Bacon, Egg & Cheese
430 calories with 17g protein.
Choose it for the classic sweet-and-savory McGriddles taste with bacon instead of sausage.
Bacon McGriddles Meal
575 calories in the official standard meal.
Choose it when you also want Hash Browns and a small coffee.
Sausage, Egg & Cheese
550 calories before adding sides or a drink.
Choose sausage when a heavier, more savory sandwich matters more than lower calories.
Egg McMuffin
310 calories with a fresh-cracked round egg.
Choose it when you want fewer calories and an English muffin instead of sweet griddle cakes.
Fast recommendation: choose the sandwich alone for the McGriddles flavor at the lower total cost. Choose the meal only when you actually want both the Hash Browns and coffee; otherwise, compare the local à-la-carte total first.

How much is a McGriddle meal at McDonald’s?

Is McDonald’s McGriddle 2 for $4 Available?
Current answer: as of July 28, 2026, McDonald’s does not list a nationwide Bacon, Egg & Cheese McGriddles 2-for-$4 promotion on the current McValue menu.
The phrase “McDonald’s McGriddle 2 for $4” usually refers to an older breakfast Mix & Match promotion, a local restaurant offer or a personalized app deal. McDonald’s promoted a nationwide 2-for-$4 breakfast offer in 2020, but an old promotion page is not evidence that the deal remains active in 2026.
What the current $4 breakfast deal actually includes
$4 Sausage McMuffin Meal Deal
- Sausage McMuffin
- Hash Browns
- Small Premium Roast Coffee
Prices and participation vary. Delivery is excluded.
$4 Sausage Biscuit Meal Deal
- Sausage Biscuit
- Hash Browns
- Small Premium Roast Coffee
The Bacon McGriddles is not listed as the main sandwich in this national deal.
If a 2-for-$4 offer appears in your app
Do not assume every McGriddles version qualifies. Bacon, sausage and egg versions may be treated differently.
The deal must be available at the location selected for the order.
Some promotions work for pickup but not for McDelivery or third-party delivery.
The promotional price should appear in the bag before checkout.
The offer may be one-time, account-specific, time-limited or unavailable with another deal.

One of the most important numbers to review |
How much protein is in a Bacon Egg and Cheese McGriddle?
A standard Bacon, Egg & Cheese McGriddles has 17 grams of protein. Choosing the meal does not substantially increase protein because Hash Browns and black coffee contribute little protein. A sausage-and-egg McGriddles generally provides slightly more protein but also adds considerably more calories and fat.
How many carbs are in a Bacon Egg and Cheese McGriddle?
The sandwich has 44 grams of total carbohydrates, including 2g fibre and 15g total sugars. Removing bacon, egg or cheese does not remove the main carbohydrate source, because most carbohydrates come from the two griddle cakes.
Nutrition values describe a standard formulation. Ingredient supply, serving variation, regional preparation and customizations can produce small differences. Use the current McDonald’s nutrition panel for medical or closely managed dietary decisions.
What Is in a Bacon, Egg & Cheese McGriddles?
How the folded egg is prepared
Prepared by a supplier
The liquid egg is pre-cooked, folded and flash-frozen before it reaches the restaurant.
Finished on the grill
The folded egg is heated on the restaurant grill with real butter before assembly.
Different from the McMuffin egg
The Egg McMuffin uses a fresh-cracked Grade A round egg cooked in an egg ring.
What makes the McGriddles cakes different?
- They provide a sweet maple-style taste without needing a separate syrup cup.
- McDonald’s says the cakes contain no artificial preservatives or flavours.
- McDonald’s also says they have no colours from artificial sources.
- The cakes remain the main carbohydrate and sugar source even if meat or cheese is removed.
