For YEARS it was a tradition to stop at the McDonalds at the Matfield Green Service Area on the way up to a Chiefs game because they were the only McDonalds left that still served the Steak Egg and Cheese Bagel breakfast sammich.
Then fucking Hardees took over the building. My favorite breakfast sammich was gone. It has been almost a decade since I've had it. I wasn't the only one missing it... and McD's finally responded to the demand. First they re-released it on the coasts and it slowly made its way inward.
People who know my love of this sammich sent me a link to a FB group that kept track of where they were being re-released and news finally hit that it was coming back into KC. This morning I had to drive 30 minutes off the farm to take the barn cat to the vet (peeing blood) and decided to take a look at the McD's app on a whim to see if the Excelsior Springs location happened to have it.
THEY DID.
I would post an image of the breakfast but they were rapidly consumed so instead I will leave you with the knowledge that they are back and money saving tip that the McD's app has a buy one get one free option.

Actually I washed it down with super fudge brownie ice cream. [Reply]
I was intrigued enough to try one of these this morning. My thoughts:
The bad: IT HAD FUCKING ONIONS ON IT. WHO IN THE FUCK PUTS ONIONS ON A BREAKFAST SANDWICH???? I HATE ONIONS! :-) And since I have never in my long life been served a breakfast sandwich anywhere that had onions, I didn't bother to check for them, so I actually bit into one of the goddamn things. Ugh. :-)
The good: After I picked the the fucking onions off and angrily spat out the one I bit into, it was fine.
The verdict: Did it taste good? Sure. But honestly, it was nothing more than a greasy cheeseburger with eggs on a bagel. It was nothing special, and also a bit heavier than I like for a quick breakfast. I rarely get McDonald's breakfast, but when I do I always get the bacon egg & cheese biscuit. That won't be changing.
My personal favorite breakfast fast food sandwich is the Chick-Fil-A spicy chicken biscuit. It rules. [Reply]
If you do order this bagel sandwich, ask them to hold the sauce. The sauce isn't that good, and just makes it sloppy to eat. I have McD's sausage muffin for breakfast a lot because it's just down the street from where I work. I usually order two, throw away one muffin and make a single double sandwich, drench it in Tabasco, and that holds me fine till lunch time. [Reply]

I am not a fast food guy by any stretch, I eat it rarely, but the steak, egg and cheese (and bacon, egg and cheese to a lesser extent) bagels at McD's are an anomaly. They are truly top notch.
The fact this may be true surely signals an end to America, as if many of us weren't already convinced. [Reply]
I am waiting for Reviewbrah to get on his horse and give us the skinny. I don't trust these other reviewers. They seem to bask in their glory while wincing with every bite.
I am not a big bagel fan, especially for a Sammie. The bread is just too tough. It wants to squeeze out the contents with every bite.
