The Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit Meal is one of the most satisfying breakfast combos at McDonald’s — built around a warm, flaky buttermilk biscuit that sets it apart from the English muffin-based McMuffin lineup. For $7.59, you get the sandwich, a side of Hash Browns, and a small McCafé® Premium Roast Coffee brewed from 100% Arabica beans. At 605 calories, it sits in the mid-range for McDonald’s breakfast meals — heartier than the Egg McMuffin Meal (455 Cal) but still well under the Big Breakfast® with Hotcakes (1,340 Cal).
The biscuit itself is a Southern-inspired recipe made with cultured buttermilk, palm oil, and traditional leavening agents. It’s buttered and toasted to order, then stacked with Thick-Cut Applewood Smoked Bacon — real pork bellies slow-cured with natural smoke flavor — a folded egg, and a slice of American cheese. McDonald’s Corporation (NYSE: MCD) introduced biscuit sandwiches to compete directly with Chick-fil-A and Bojangles in the Southern breakfast market, and they’ve since become staples at all 13,400+ U.S. locations.

Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit Meal — Nutrition Facts
At 605 calories, this meal delivers a hearty breakfast. The standout nutritional concern is sodium: at 1,650 mg, it represents 72% of the recommended daily value — the highest sodium content among standard McDonald’s breakfast meals. This comes from the bacon curing process, cheese, biscuit dough, and hash browns combined. Individuals monitoring sodium intake should consider removing the cheese (saves ~200 mg) or swapping hash browns for apple slices.

What’s in a Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit Meal? — Ingredients
Unlike the McMuffin sandwiches that use a simple toasted English muffin, the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit is built on a Southern-style buttermilk biscuit — a richer, flakier bread made with palm oil, cultured buttermilk, and multiple leavening agents. The egg in this sandwich is a folded egg — made from real eggs blended with nonfat milk and a small amount of modified food starch for texture — rather than the freshly cracked round egg used in the Egg McMuffin.
| Component | Key Ingredients |
|---|---|
| Biscuit | Enriched bleached wheat flour, cultured buttermilk, palm oil, palm kernel oil, water, leavening, salt, sugar, wheat protein isolate, soy lecithin. Contains: Wheat, Milk, Soy. |
| Folded Egg | Eggs, nonfat milk, modified food starch, salt, citric acid. Contains: Egg, Milk. |
| Applewood Smoked Bacon | Pork bellies cured with water, salt, sugar, natural smoke flavor, sodium phosphate, sodium erythorbate, sodium nitrite. |
| American Cheese | Milk, cream, water, sodium citrate, salt, cheese cultures, citric acid, enzymes, soy lecithin, color added. Contains: Milk, Soy. |
| Butter | Salted butter (cream, salt) and clarified butter (pasteurized butterfat). Contains: Milk. |

The Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit Meal is actually the cheapest full breakfast combo on the menu at $7.59 (excluding the Sausage Burrito Meal). It offers a strong price-to-satisfaction ratio, though the high sodium (1,650 mg) is the trade-off. For lower sodium, the Egg McMuffin Meal ($8.19, 1,090 mg) or Sausage Burrito Meal ($6.99, 960 mg) are better options.
