Just a note of history. I worked at McDonald's when the Egg McMuffin was first brought out in the Summer of 1972. Commercially available English Muffins, the same cheese we used on burgers, "Canadian Bacon", and we used real eggs. That is, we actually had eggs in the shell. I remember my later to be brother-in-law working to get the technique right as the instructions from the "Main Office" didn't quite work as well to start with. Eggs are not as forgiving as burger patties.
... They still use real, solid eggs cracked almost to order and proper English muffins to this very day. McDonald's really isn't as fake as many want to believe. 🤷 Absolutely insanely unhealthy but deep down delicious garbage food? Yes. Completely fake? No, not at all.
Worked at McDonalds for 10 years until recently. They still have real eggs, and the same canadian bacon & english muffins you can find at any grocery store.
I have been making mine at home for years once you get past the fact that it tastes so different than the Mc Donalds one (to be better) you won't go back. in a pinch I would also use store bought muffins and sausage patties.
@@marcusalexander7088 Egg McMuffins are real food. They're made from a toasted English muffin, a slice of cheese, a real egg, and a slice of Canadian bacon or sausage. It's the biscuits and McGriddles that use the precooked frozen egg things.
As a McDonald's employee, I am loving this take on the menu. This series as a whole is pretty fun. Hoping the series continues from Madison to Tyler, although those are a bit past your time period.
I always love how you include the viewer in the “story” of these videos, it reminds me of these choose your own adventure books I had as a kid where the reader travelled back in time almost like this
It’s like something out of a happy meal kids book. You are a time traveller from the 21st century! You have been transported to 18th century America, where you have been introduced to John Adams, one of the founding fathers. What do you do? Ask him about the Declaration of Independence. Page 25. Tell him about the future of the United States. Page 49. Make him a Sausage and Egg McMuffin™. Page 61.
A good historic interpreter is able to make a connection between his modern audience and the history that is being demonstrated. Jon is outstandingly good at it.
I've never had an Egg McMuffin in my life, and that's coming from someone who's hardly shy of fast food. Well, better late than never. Thanks as always, for the inspiration.
Actual Egg McMuffins aren't great. The concept of one is great, its a great little breakfast on the go. The execution of it though, in a typical McDonalds... less so. So, making one at home is probably best
@@TheJawesomeOne Yeah, I make the homemade equivalent (not even for taste reasons, just because it's quick and cheap and can be eaten while driving). They're good when they're hot and fresh, your typical egg & toast breakfast all in one.
Jon, they look ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! I'm definitely putting those in my cookbook. So long McDonalds and hello to the Townsends breakfast sandwich!!!!! You guys NEVER fail to deliver great content! I love the time travel food series...AWESOME!!!
@@dattebenforcer I have several old tuna cans. The problem with tuna cans now days is the cans are press formed and you don't have two ends to cut out.
@@dattebenforcer Then maybe a ring mould that’s made for cooking in is best. The ones made for eggs tend to have a handle that sticks up, making them even easier to, well, handle.
Hurray for Jon and John! We just re-watched the John Adams series, and my husband ran out and bought the David McCullough book before the week was out.

Looked fantastic. The metal ring and the T brand were great! During college I lived next to a small independent supermarket and they sold a box of hamburger patties that tasted exactly the same as McDonald's sausage patties. Was really easy and cheap to make my own McMuffins at home.
fwiw WM's Great Value brand sausage (the microwave kind) is a VERY close match to McDs sausage in terms of flavor (or was the last time I checked a couple years ago anyway)
This was such a wonderful video. This channel has been absolutely stellar lately. Quite a feat considering it’s already impeccable quality. Those sandwiches looked amazing. The series concept is so good. This man is such a treasure. I could not ever say enough good. After watching Mr. Adams indulge in one of the modern world’s finest overindulgence, it would be entertaining to see him react to the fact that we sell literally millions of those sandwiches every single day in this country. Pretty wild stuff.
Being able to eat a full meal that will fill you for a whole day would make an average 1800s soldier fall in love. The taste (lack of) might send them into catatonic shock though
I love this series so much! I usually get a little teary-eyed watching because I know my late fiancé, Little Bunny Sunshine, would have loved them too because they’re so fun, beautiful, and sweet, and because she would see how happy Jon is making them, and nothing could make her happier than seeing someone do what makes them happy! Hooray for everyone who works so hard at Townsends on all the things they love! 🥹💜
Jon is incredibly skilled at this time travel business. No other person, with just the clothes on their back, could have an egg ring made, and obtain all these ingredients, just to present an Egg McMuffin to John Adams.
This is an inspired idea for a cooking series. Once again, great video! I'm so glad to see content like this on PrudeTube. It's informative, compelling, and thought provoking material. Things you wouldn't normally get from a cooking series... Never stop and God Speed!😁
Ex-McDonalds employee here. They break the yolks for the McMuffins round eggs. The egg tool is this pair of plastic tweezers with prongs on the bottom for quickly breaking a bunch of yolks, and tweezers on the front for picking out eggshells. Instead of the old ring on grill method, they're now made in non-stick dishes set into trays that go into convection ovens. Of course they didn't have teflon in the 18th century. Just figured I'd mention it. Also always go for round egg over folded egg. The folded eggs come pre formed and pre cooked in a package, and are only reheated in the oven. BTW that branding iron is pure style.
I want them to do chocolate chip cookies! An American working with Tollhouse (yes that Tollhouse) came up with them on the eve of WWII. They never existed prior! Can Jon make one out of 18th Century supply and cookery?
This one was probally my favorite out of the series. It seems like you really love your work, and for that I envy you. Take care on the frontier, fellow countrymen!
I love this series . It’s great to see what ingredients were available back then and most people would never know just how different the available ingredients were. Great video 🔥
My god they look delicious. I've never been a fan of the sausage McMuffin, mostly due to their sausage patty, but even at their best they couldn't begin to compare to these. I might only allow myself to make one a year unless I want to up my exercise quota (and I don't) but they look so worth the effort.
Thank you for your incredible content. I just discovered the channel about a week ago and never realized how much I needed it! Looking forward to watching your future releases as well as going back through your older ones as well!
I love this man, he is so awesome and so cool I always smile the way he finds and gets his ingredients and at his final results after he finises making the food. It always makes me smile!
Everything from the cast iron pans over that beautiful yet simple stove, to the fun little story as to why we're making this, it all works just so beautifully together. I definitely want to try making these two styles of McMuffins, that looked delicious. Not sure if you've done something on this before, but how did people go about cleaning their cooking instruments like their pots, pans, whisks, what have you? Was it as simple as using a light amount of water and scrubbing, or did they have home-made solutions they could use to help better clean their items?
this is just the best series, I love the time travel foods. This should be a real cooking show on TV have people make recipes from now with just 18th century stuff like a contest
My uncle made those iron rings for me, and rings for 2 sizes of hamburger. I have used them since I set up housekeeping, which was some 45 years ago! Many thanks to my uncle!!
This was a fantastic video!! If I should nitpick (and not intentionally meant to question your travel food choices), it would be that it was not a "classic egg mcmuffin" which is egg, cheese and "Canadian" or back bacon. Instead you made the Sausage McMuffin with Egg. I do not know if back bacon was available in the 18th Century but if it was, that would be the only comment. Otherwise, "Well done" and "Bon appettit!" And that sausage patty looks soooooo delicious!
I've watched you since you started this channel and holy moly every thing has been fun, but this time machine series is reaaally fun because it's apparently something a lot of us have always wondered, which is funny because I thought I was the only one.
I already make my own egg and muffin sandwiches for breakfast, but these look so good I really have to try them! Great job and hopefully John Adams always gets the right order!
Hey, I make a breakfast sandwich that John would love too. I make homemade English sourdough muffins or homemade sourdough beagles, put on some homemade Canadian Bacon and a fried egg and a slice of homemade farmer cheese, put the top on and my hubby loves them. We make them early in the morning if we are going on a little day trip and take them in the pick up truck when out and about on a busy day. No stopping for the Golden Arches charging us several bucks for Lord knows what is in that sandwich! LOL. From recipes handed down in our family, my ancestors on my Paternal Grandmothers side, they had their own sourdough stater they kept alive for decades and made bread with it, English muffins, biscuits and scones with it. One recipe came over from Ireland with my 8 X's Great Grandmother. She used wheat flour she "ground through a stone twice thru and spring water" for her starter. Really interesting to read these old recipes. My Maternal Great Great Grandmother had Martha Washington's cook book. My cousin has it now and we have all shared recipes from it!
While I love all your videos, I have to say I'm really enjoying these time travel experiments. It's such an interesting concept and a great way to link our period with theirs. Keep up the fantastic work!
This series is a lot of fun =) And those sandwiches looked so good. I made up a batch of kitchen pepper and tried it on pork chops, it was great, I can definitively see it being a great blend for sausage as well.
The McFlurry is going to blow his mind.
What will blow his mind is if the ice cream machine is working.
There’s an idea.
18th century soft-serve ice-cream. Now that would be a first for me.
The machine is always broken
Oh please invent a strawberry Sunday, Mr, Townsend.
I love the premise of showing up with nothing but the clothes on your back. Mr. Adams takes a look at Jon and thinks how wonderful it is that fashion hasn’t changed much in 250 years

Ok! You made that look fantastic!!! Thanks for sharing! ( We also know that Mr. Adams loved his hard cider as well! ) :)
While I love all your videos, I have to say I'm really enjoying these time travel experiments. It's such an interesting concept and a great way to link our period with theirs. Keep up the fantastic work!
Love love this series quite an original idea and the whole concept works I want more!!! Thank you.
These time travel segments are my favorite! 😍
This series is a lot of fun =) And those sandwiches looked so good. I made up a batch of kitchen pepper and tried it on pork chops, it was great, I can definitively see it being a great blend for sausage as well.
Come for the McMuffin. Stay for the McBride!
And the soundtrack for this episode was amazing!
Love the whimsy of this sub-series, really fun idea!
