$5.65 is the one recorded price for this McGriddles, at 550 calories, or 695 as a meal.
The McDonald's Sausage Egg Cheese McGriddles price rests on a single reading of $5.65, recorded from published US listings, so no range appears in the table. McDonald's counts the sandwich at 550 calories and the meal, with Hash Browns and a small coffee, at 695. A $5 McGriddles meal was pre-announced by the company for November 2025, though that figure was never found in any published listing.

If something goes wrong
The sandwich costs more than the recorded $5.65
- Cause
- One reading stands behind that figure, and franchisees price their own boards, so a difference of a dollar either way says nothing unusual about the restaurant. Roughly 95% of US restaurants are operated by franchisees.
- Fix
- Use the McDonald's app with the restaurant selected. A figure read there on the morning of the order beats any recorded average.
The $5 McGriddles meal never appeared
- Cause
- That price was pre-announced on 2 September 2025 for a November launch and carried the company's line that prices and participation may vary. Nothing found during checking in August 2026 confirmed it running anywhere.
- Fix
- Treat the $5 as an announcement rather than a current price. Check the Deals tab, which is where limited builds surface when they run.
The meal is 695 and the sandwich is 550
- Cause
- That 145-calorie gap is Hash Browns at 140 plus a small Premium Roast Coffee at 5, the standard breakfast pairing across the board.
- Fix
- Use the same 145 to convert any breakfast meal figure back to its sandwich.
The loaded McGriddles, and the $5 announced for it
One set of numbers here belongs to McDonald's, and none of them is a price. The company counts the Sausage, Egg & Cheese McGriddles at 550 calories and its meal at 695, both stated in prose on its own pages. Price is the weak half. A single reading of $5.65 was recorded from published US listings in August 2026, and no second figure exists to put a band around it.
There is one more company number worth setting out carefully. On 2 September 2025 McDonald's announced the return of the Extra Value Meal, priced a Sausage McMuffin with Egg Meal at $5.00, and pre-announced a $5 McGriddles meal for the following November. Pre-announced is the operative word. No such price was found in any published listing during checking, and the release carried the standard note that prices and participation may vary, so it belongs here as history rather than as a figure to plan around.
What's in it: the Sausage, Egg & Cheese McGriddles build
Two maple-flavoured griddle cakes, a seasoned pork sausage patty, a folded egg and a slice of American cheese. Four components. Against the plain Sausage McGriddles the additions are the egg and the cheese, worth 120 calories and, on the recorded figures, $2.00. Macros and allergens could not be read: the product page draws its nutrition table with a script after loading, so a plain read returns an empty grid and the ingredient statement stays on that page.
Is it worth it: against the plain version, and against the bagels
Two comparisons decide it. The first sits inside the McGriddles line: $3.65 recorded for the plain sandwich against $5.65 here, which prices egg and cheese at $2.00 for 120 calories. The second reaches across to the bagels, where the Sausage, Egg & Cheese Bagel was recorded at $5.29 for 710 calories. Cheaper, and 160 calories heavier.
On that arithmetic the loaded McGriddles is dear for what it weighs, sitting above both bagel builds on price per calorie. It sells on the sweetness. The value case never quite closes, and where the meal is wanted there is no published or recorded price to test it against, so the sum to beat is the sandwich plus Hash Browns at a typical $2.79, which is $8.44 before the coffee. Breakfast ends when the restaurant switches menus, at an hour set locally.
