Three hotcakes with butter and syrup plus a savory pork sausage patty on the side.
Hotcakes and Sausage pairs McDonald’s three classic hotcakes with a hot pork sausage patty, giving you a sweet and savory platter. The sausage adds protein that the plain hotcakes lack.
It costs about a dollar more than plain Hotcakes and roughly a dollar less than the Big Breakfast, so it sits nicely in the middle of the breakfast platter lineup.
