The McGriddle version simply has the chicken sandwiched between two warm maple griddle cakes (the regular one has a sausage patty instead). Meanwhile, the McMuffin version is the chicken patty with a bit of mayo and a slice of American cheese sandwiched between buttered English muffins.

"The reason pancake bread is so successful in the bacon, egg, and cheese McGriddle as well as the sausage, egg, and cheese McGriddle is that the inherent sweetness - via pockets of gooey maple syrups - is countered by the salt of breakfast meats," a reviewer for Thrillist wrote.
