Spicy Sausage Breakfast Sandwiches

McDonald's Added a Cheesy Jalapeño Sausage Egg McMuffin Spotted

Things are heating up outside and at McDonald's restaurants with the launch of the new Cheesy Jalapeño Sausage Egg McMuffin.

Perfect for starting your day off with a kick, the new Cheesy Jalapeño Sausage Egg McMuffin consists of a savory hot sausage paired with sliced jalapeños, a slice of melty American cheese, and a freshly cracked egg, all served on a toasted English muffin. And if this flavor combination sounds familiar, that's because it is. Last fall, McDonald's Canada rolled out a Bacon, Egg & Jalapeno Cheddar McMuffin, which featured a similar pairing of a freshly cracked egg, hickory-smoked bacon, jalapeno-laced marble cheddar cheese, and a creamy jalapeno sauce.

The new Cheesy Jalapeño Sausage Egg McMuffin can be found now at participating McDonald's restaurants until August 13, 2023.
