McDonald's Sausage & Egg McMuffin But CHEAPER And BETTER
Vložit
- čas přidán 20. 08. 2024
- The McDonald's sausage and egg McMuffin is an iconic breakfast menu item. It has been feeding people since 1975 and is incredibly popular. But...In the UK at least it's currently £3.39 for a double! For ONE single muffin. That can really mount up to quite an expensive breakfast especially if you take the whole family. So I have revived my old recipe, so you can easily make the iconic sausage and egg mcmuffin at home for £1.50 or less. A tip for you, once the patty mix has been combined, take a pinch off and fry it. Taste it, and if you want more salt, herbs, pepper you can add more before forming into patties.

What other McDonald's items would you like me to tackle?
Please .. the McChicken Sandwich
I make lots of your recipes and they r my best meals .. thank u love u
What ever you do will be good Adam.
Thing about McDonald's, I think, whatever you get it all tastes the same, horrid.
When I was a veggie through the 90s they had an amazing bean burger. Not sure it'd work for the channel as I don't think they've sold it in years, but it was gorgeous. I need to look for a recipe now!
Do you get a Chicken Foldover in the UK? We have it by that name in South Africa. It’s called a McArabia in some other countries. One of the few things on the menu I love.
Adam, McDonald’s used to be cheap😮 not anymore, if we got it for the whole family, it would have to be on payday 💰 this is a great alternative, thanks mate 👍
If you buy a bag of hash browns, you can add those along with it for the full maccys experience
Same with fish n chips from the chippy, everything is way to expensive nowadays!🤔✌️
Thanks, mate! You're a life saver. They've taken the McSausage from the menu in Germany for quite some time now. Never thought I'd have one again.
I have happily made my own with English muffins, a strongly cured ham or I make my own pork/ beef patty with a tomato puree, cheddar cheese, egg etc. I’m much happier as it all costs me about 30% of our local Micky D’s.
I love a double Sausage and egg Mcmuffin, it's sooo juicy and yummy, but that looks delicious 😋. I'm gunna try that for deffo. Xxx
I used to have them every Sunday morning at my old job when I opened up the shop. Oh and obligatory hash browns.
We don't have double sausage mcmuffins here. But the regular egg mcmuffin with sausage most times are $5.00 each in Arizona. Sometimes they run a special of 2 for $5.00 for a few weeks.
Yes, I'm going to give them a try, look delicious. 🍔 🥚
Get it down ya x
This is not the first time I’ve wished that “Aroma-vision” existed while watching you cook! Great recipe & video for the weekend - thanks!
They did smell good not gonna lie. Tasted even better. Imagine how more popular cooking channels would be if we had smellavision 🤣
This is so clever. True...if you take a McD home it never sets the world on fire. Going to do a fantastic home AG breakfast for everyone next Weekend! BTW I came across your video where you talked about your life and challenges...last week while I was in bed sick. I can't tell you how moving it was...I often brood on my own painful family experiences but it solves nothing and I can be grateful for the people in my life that gave support and help as much as they could. "May God keep you in his right hand" as my Irish dad used to say...
Thank you mate, it was a hard video to make but I'm glad it's out there giving some folks something they can relate too or find some solace in.
As an American living in the UK, I make these (singles not doubles) all the time because I find they don't taste the same as the US ones. The best sliced cheese for these available in the UK is Dairylea imo. Probably closest to how American cheese (particularly Kraft singles) melts and tastes. They're usually on offer so not too expensive. I've found others either don't melt or have a really weird taste. Tesco and Aldi both also sell a pretty close frozen sausage patty match if you can't find a good minced pork with a decent fat content.
Have you tried the Richmond sausage burgers?
Lovely seeing you Adam.. great food there..yet again.. thanks luv..😋👍
You're welcome Jan, enjoy your Sunday x
My husband is super anti-McDonald’s while I’m the polar opposite. I love that I could find the recipe so I don’t have to fight with him to take me to McDonald’s. Thank you!
Both happy now look 😁
Nice one, Adam cooking today myself thanks for the tips.
Hi to you and moss hope you are both well and all is good in your great vid thanks for keep us all fed take care and godbless and the same to all the lovely people on here
Thanks Carl mate, have a chill Sunday!
Really didn't realise how easy that was to do! And no doubt it tastes so much better! Great tips for the freezer! Thanks mate👍😁🏴
No problem 👍
True... happened today July 8, 2024 in Folsom, Ca (outside Sacramento) On the way back from the hospital my wife and I stopped by a Micky-d's for an egg McMuffin... well we missed their 'time window' so couldn't get one. Second choice was a Filet o fish. $12.42 for 2 burgers.... including tax!
Thanks Gavin Newsom!
I am definitely doing this one Adam! Looks just awesome, can't wait to taste it!
Thanks man
@@Adam_Garratt Got all the ingredients today, going to put it all together tomorrow and then have a fantastic breakfast on Wednesday morning!
Well Adam you've sold it to me, never buying Mcdonald, mc'muffin again. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Sheila, so much better making your own. x
Nice, in my opinion it looks better then McDonald’s, great job mate
Thanks bud
There's something so comforting about this video
I do enjoy my monthly or perhaps more visits to McD. The food at my local McD place (llanelli) is always cooked to my liking, always fresh and the staff are very good. I like it there, I even enjoy watching the toddlers playing and enjoying their treats. I like your Food too Adam, I will be trying this recipe which doesn’t look too difficult. Thank you Adam.
I sometimes make these with pre seasoned sausages, just cut off the casing and form them into patties and you're good to go! Wait for them to be on sale to save cash!
Truly a british man . Not thinking that a family could CRUSH 16 sausage patties for breakfast.
I don't think anyone sane would do that 🤣. But it would still be cheaper even so
Haven't had a McDonalds in years and never tried their muffins. Still not going to try one when I can make a a Garratts for a fraction of the price and know exactly what's going into it. Thanks Adam.
Exactly Barbara. Cheaper and you know what's in it x
Good morning! Good time to watch this new video 😊
Morning Shirley x
@@Adam_Garratt good morning handsome x
Been wanting to make this for a while and it was amazing. Everyone loved them, tasted very close to the real thing.
Will definitely make them Adam 😋👍
Hope you enjoy
Great recipe thanks, currently making my second batch, which is 3x the ingredients as its so handy to have the patties ready in the freezer
Glad you like them Danielle. 😁
great video. Form the patties on the paper. much easier. Use a ring mould to shape as well.
I made these at home - they were so good, much better than McDonalds! Thank you, Adam!
its been 35yrs since I worked at MCD's and I still know now to make the eggs for that sandwich. The rest is fabulous
£4.19 for 1 double now as of 4th of July, hence why I'm here watching this. This looks lush. Totally gonna try making these.
That is an absolute joke! £4.19 😲
I make one of these 1-2x a week. I pick sausage, bacon or even ham. Buttered n toasted English muffin....takes less time than GETTING to McDonald's
Every month I pre cook sausages and bacon to freeze. Sometimes it's turkey burger SEASONED like sausage
Looks 10 times better than McDonald's matey!!!!
Nice one Adam sir🤘
Thanks David, it was very good
I'd happily eat 2 of your ones now with Extra cheese! Looks absolutely delicious 😋 😍
Nice recipe idea Adam….love these ….I reckon I’d fried off the patties fist, then toasted off the muffins in the residual fat 😋😋
Yep absolutely best way to do it. Sometimes when I film a video it's easier to do things out of order. If I wasn't filming I'd do it that way
Absolutely gorgeous- great work!
Thanks mate
This video is very charming
Decent attempt Adam.
As a former McDonald's employee, 2 things you got wrong was cutting the muffing with a breadknife. Muffins should be ripped apart along the equator line, only Warburtons muffins are acceptable. And obviously buttered with melted butter after toasting.
Also, the egg should be poached to almost hard boiled yolk, not soft runny.
For the authentic DIY double sausage & egg muffin.
Looks delicious can't beat a runny egg
I love my eggs. My favourite ones are the Burford brown, but they are so expensive now
Very nice. McDonalds here in the U.S. doesn’t have the double sausage McMuffin on the menu, only single sausage. The double looks and sounds delicious.
LOL!!! Making your own is ALWAYS better. All the best Adan keep it up budy. 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
Very excited for this. I am typing this before watching the vid!
First! haha
Found your pancake video, and they turned out great mate, you are the man & I'm gunna try more of your recipes. 😋
I make these using cumberland sausage ( just take skins of) they smell & taste 😋 👌🏻 amazing better than mcd
Just made these for the first time. Flippin heck they’re good! What a fantastic channel; subscribed!
Glad you enjoyed them pal
Adam! Great down to earth guy. love that you are showing how easy and cost effective cooking actually is. I will look forward to other dishes you make.🙂 I had only come across your channel tonight and loved it and l have been sitting binging your recipes. Way better than Netflix 😂 A great money saver cook a big pot of potatoes. Leave butter and milk out. Mash then freeze. Perfect to reheat and add butter, cream or Adam you love cheese you will love it. Tip is the potato has to be dry and not a wet potato.👌
Thanks mate, and a big welcome to the family. We are a down to earth close bunch here mate.
@@Adam_Garratt love you're cat as well how old is she/he?
I had a cat that lived to 22. Was your cat an outdoor cat? Buy some liver your cat will go mental ! 😺👍🐯
I can't believe you used a knife on that muffin. I learned to use the fork to open them up properly. So much more surface to toast, so much more crunch and taste.
Errrr..... Mr. Garratt:
Top Tip no. 3796
Rock Salt (No impurities)
Cheap beef/pork cuts (bicarb here)
Find your LOCAL butcher.
Make stock using your immersion heater while heating hot water taps.
Veg/Meat stock lasts months if frozen.
I 'like' what you do BUT:....
My neighbours keep foraging for garlic/black/wild garlic.
Your video should show this.......
Finally got round to making these using sausage meat and left off the cheese and you you could really taste the herbs, excellent.
Hi Adam , I made the takeaway tonight, It was amazing.
So easy and nice ,good balance of flavour.
I used a microwave egg mould, it worked perfectly..tasted great too.
I've fwd your link too all of my family.👍👍
Good to hear fella ☺️
Thank for sharing, I like your video, it’s practical ,not complicated like other channel.
Homemade are always the best aren't they Adam I love sausage and egg 😋yummy
Yes they are Tracy x And, you can control the levels of herbage too. I like a lot of sage in mine. And look at that egg, you just can't get that at maccys
@@Adam_Garratt herbage is in the dictionary I take it 🤣 x
Was watching keef cooks and he mentioned your channel and I just saw the video,think I’ll be trying this next weekend great video
😂 I started making my own because every single time I want one I get sorry sir we stopped serving breakfast. Made my own not as professional as yours just bought some bob evans sausage patties but I was surprised how cheap and easy it was, now I see McDonald breakfast differently
Love it. Tastier and healthier!
Onya mate. Cheers
thanks mate
Husband and I said well done Adam! Looks 200% better than te McDonald’s version!
Thank you both x
Looks pretty good, mate, but I'm afraid that I'm one of those hillbillies who doesn't like runny eggs in any kind of sandwich, as they're a bit too messy for me. 😂
I actually make things like this quite often, (the egg will be "over well," as the Yanks would call it,, although that wouldn't be to your taste), and I will quite often add some bacon, (not crispy, just nicely browned), a slice of tomato, and some caramelised onion on top of the egg, with some HP or some other brown sauce. 😋
You had me at HP sauce, love that stuff especially on a sausage sandwich. It's funny because If I overcook my eggs and they aren't runny, I get a little bit of egg rage haha. They have to be runny for me
@@Adam_Garratt asda taking the mickey with Prices, bottle of HP brown £3.50 and Fruity the same,
Jeez Adam i hardly ever buy Mcdonalds but i would make that it looks truly edible.
Nice one Adam, I make these all the time using bacon + I make a home made mini Rosti + I buy those grapefruit segments in a tin in natural juice (eat the segments as a starter) and save the can juice to drink.
I love grapefruit. Might just be me, but I don't notice them in the shops as much anymore. My grandma used to put a half under the grill with sugar and we'd have it for breakfast.
Looks delicious 🤤
Making this tomorrow for my son when he visits me. I will tell you how it goes.
Hope you both enjoy! X
@@Adam_Garratt bloody tasty 😋
Yummy Yum Yum! 😋😋😋😋😋
I make a version of their simple cheese burgers at home now and again. Very good.
Have a go at the chicken mc spicy, that would be a good one to try 👍
Good shout Les!
Looks delicious Adam, I was a manager at McDonald's here in Australia for 8 years.
Thank you for your service. I could not work at McDonald's having witnessed how some people behave in them 😅
@@Adam_Garratt yeah it's really bad at times, nude guys in drive-thru, I've seen and heard a lot
@@grahamreinbott172 As someone that worked in retail for almost 25 years. I'm sure you can relate to the fact you get tired of people's crap real fast 🤣
@@Adam_Garratt most definitely. Everyone has their limits. I think it should be mandatory for everyone to work a retail job so they can see the amount of arseholes that are out there
I do this on the weekend when i have time but like to add a slice of grilled tomato and mushrooms with dijon mustard & sriracha and poached egg instead of fried, ends up being a fork and knife job.
Tried this this morning, they came out fantastic 😀. I'm going to try adding fennel next time and make "Italian" sausage
The fennel sounds epic
I’m craving one now after watching ( and they say advertising doesn’t work !!!!)
I'm like that with fried chicken. Just the mere mention of it gets me going lol
I like the Sausage, Egg, McMuffin but I did not know they did a double version cos Ihave not had one for ages, even years. Your version looks good.
Thanks for the recipe idea!😜✌️
You're welcome mate
Yum!
This is probably even more expensive now. Prices are through the roof here in the US. I assume even worse in the UK. I didn't even know they sold double sausage. Dang that has to be a lot of calories!
The McMuffen is one of their easiest sandwiches to duplicate and customize.
Looks wonderful!
Thanks Shirley! x
Looks delish as always.
Thank you 😊
Wow good video. Looked great.
At home, I love having the yolk still liquid. It's a delicious mess I would not want in public.
Lovely grub. I will definitely try making those but I'll fry the egg more as runny egg makes me a bit squeamish. Regards to you Adam and your cat!
Bloody delicious these are cheers ☺️
Cheers mate
In Australia,our sausage patties are made from beef and your double sausage and egg cost as much as a single one here
Was up very early for me this am and saw this video. Had to run to McDonalds as didn't have necessary ingredients at home presently LOL
haha they are still good though, just expensive. Enjoy your brekky
Ive been making my own since the prices more than doubled. It cost me about 1.25. Plus i save the cost of gas too
Nice one mate. Cheers.
You're welcome pal
Never had a breakfast muffin, love a big mac though. Yours looks fantastic!
I have a fondness to the big mac. When I was younger and had a troubled childhood, I used to come visit my dad up here in Leicester. We used to get a big mac each and we'd sit in the car and eat as we chatted talked about fishing. I always felt like a grown up with this massive burger like my dad lol. Good times
It’s sad because I feel McDonald’s used to be somewhat pretty tasty during breakfast time. But nowadays you pay $10 for 2 McMuffins, which used to be like $2 each back then. Now, it’s expensive and inconvenient since the food is always cold, the only fresh and or hot part of the mcmuffin is the egg. They’ll give you cold pattys that have been sitting, doesn’t even taste all that great, and then makes you feel like crap if you have even the slightest sensitive stomach. I’ve definitely turned to at home English muffin sandwiches since it seems it’s more worth my money to just make it at home.
Defo yours Adam 👍🏼❤️I make a version of these at the weekend and a few for through the week well wrapped after cooling the sausage to room temp then assemble and plonk in fridge to warm up in micro for a quick out the door brekky for Logan before school🥰
Bet the kids love you for that Aunty Brenda! x
@@Adam_Garratt hahaha they do but I’ve cooked for them like this always and still think they prefer Mac dees
Thanks Adam you always come up with recipes my lot love to eat….
I did actually have you in mind when I made this 'I wonder if Myle's kids will like these' haha
You are so right Adam…I’m going to do this tomorrow which will sort breakfast out for the next few days….👍
Am I the only one who thinks the single patty version has a better balance of flavours?
Agreed 🤝
I make these sometimes for me and the hubby at weekends as a treat! I use the Aldi frozen ones- way cheaper!
I'll have to check them out, thanks!
Best way to eat it is to put the hash brown between the patties! Mmm
Round of applause for you! It just makes sense right? Who wouldnt love that combo
id love to see you do a version of mcdonald's apple pie
That looks great I’ll defiantly give that a go, I bought a shoulder of pork this weekend to make some sausages with but I think I'm going to make pork patties instead save me the trouble of getting the sausage stuffer out, great channel Adam, atb John.
Nice one mate 😁
Top scran✌🏻
Awesome, you nailed it 😂
Thanks mate
Cheers Adam,your version shat on McDonalds one,McDonald's are well nice but the price isn't.👍👌💥
I now look forward to Sunday for a change. So far I have made all the dishes on your channel Adam and have never been disappointed, why should I. Oh, in case I haven’t mentioned, please do a KFC video.
Glad to be putting a smile on your face fella. As for KFC, I have tried many many times to get it spot on. I've found you really need to proper pressure fryers and such to really nail it down. Have a look at a channel called Glen and friends cooking. We've known each other on this app for a few years and he really delved into the KFC recipe and he's got some brilliant videos on it.
Looks delicious as always Adam.
Thanks Jim!
@@Adam_Garratt thanks for another great video and recipe
Beautiful Adam. When will you post the fish chowder ?
I'm not sure when, as I've got some tweaks to make. But I have got a Cullen skink on the channel in the meantime
@@Adam_Garratt I will look forward to it.
