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.

Sometimes you gotta spit on that thing, know what I'm saying. [Reply]

Now I usually go to a little place called the Connect Cafe at 8th and Armstrong in downtown KCK. Great people, great breakfast, reasonable prices.
Hey, I have had their biscuits and gravy with a fried egg a few times when I was sent to do survey research at the courthouse. It is excellent:-) [Reply]

Precooked, Great Value, frozen patty. According to a former McDonalds Chef, the ingredients are almost identical, as is the taste. I don't recall the brand of English muffin but I get them at Sam's Club. I lightly toast them then add a smidge of butter. [Reply]

The Thomas sourdough English muffin is pretty good with egg and ham.
Working out west seems everything is served on sourdough. You ask for bacon and eggs with wheat or white toast they look down there nose at you. I got burned out on sourdough. The Thomas EM is pretty mildly flavored though. [Reply]

I used to get the one without the pancakes. That sausage was flavored just right. They changed it a few years back though and it's a filler grisle monster now. Its also devoid of flavor. [Reply]
I love McDonalds breakfast but I tried that steak and cheese bagel about 15 years ago and it was easily the worst breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had a McDonalds. [Reply]
