  • Where you work, do they spit in the food if the customer is rude to you or abuse you in any manners?

  • @EverLivingWriter I've never seen or heard of anybody spitting in food, only on movies. I think it's shameful and disgusting behaviour.. and childish. If I would ever catch anybody doing something like that, I would tell the store owner immediately.

    Is it a common thing in America?

  • @lorirocks777 Are you really in Switzerland? In America, spitting in customers' food happens, especially at fast food restaurants and when customers insult the employees there.

  • @EverLivingWriter Yeah I'm in Switzerland. That's really crazy... I don't see how somebody could feel justified in doing that.

  • this question is slightly off-topic: they spit in customers' food where you work?

  • Whoa I appreciate the fact that you used gloves and real eggs O.O

  • The egg mc muffin is the only real egg.

  • @josh666675 Not in Australia

  • Cracking eggs like a boss :D lol

  • This is fake. They don't crack eggs at McDonalds! That work is done in a big factory. What is delivered to McDonalds is gallons of liquid egg. Already prepared to cook!

  • @Woggyflush You're fake! Just kidding... No, this is how it's done in Australia & New Zealand.

  • @lorirocks777

    okay, I didn't know that. Sorry!

  • @Woggyflush all round eggs that go in mcmuffins are made from fresh eggs which are cracked exactly how this video shows! however liquid egg is used to make folded and scrambled eggs....

    so to sum up no this isnt fake and i think you should only comment if you know what ur talking about otherwise gtfo!

  • @brookesyful In Australia we used fresh eggs for everything...

  • @lorirocks777 interesting... do u ever use folded eggs (eg for bagels and breakfast wraps) and what bout scrambled? just interested as id like to know how it works over there :)

  • @brookesyful We used to until about 2005 when scrambled eggs were taken off the menu and folded eggs were replaced with halved round eggs

  • @lorirocks777 interesting... do u ever use folded eggs (eg for bagels and breakfast wraps) and what bout scrambled? just interested as id like to know how it works over there :)

  • @lorirocks777 interesting... do u ever use folded eggs (eg for bagels and breakfast wraps) and what bout scrambled? just interested as id like to know how it works over there :)

  • lol I have never seen them break the yolk bubble with their finger! lol I was waiting for the yellow spatula. I'm so trying that tomorrow @ work haha

  • i lile hw u cut off the vid as soon as he pours tht stuff in haha

  • Can it be? The double mickey flickey egg break!!! ...pro

  • who knows where those eggs come from and what way the chicken were raised!!??

  • @mokugin81 the person who sold them the eggs

  • That's some boss egg cracking right there

  • i think with some extensive training i could do that

  • That's great but where the heck do we get the little steam cover?? I'm tempted to put a clothes iron over my egg mold!!

  • @Chipperowski There are egg poachers you can buy... Just look on google :)

  • @lorirocks777 Sure but its not really the same as this process. Here you are almost basically still frying or pan cooking the bottom of the egg while the top part is steamed.

  • @Chipperowski Actually the whole egg is steamed... the bottom of the eggs shouldn't fry at all, if they do, it means they were left for too long. The inside of the cover is completely filled with steam during the cooking process. You could achieve this by cooking eggs inside of a ring on a frying pan, putting some water around the outside of the rings and putting a lid over the pan for about 90 seconds. From memory the grills were set to about 120 degrees C for cooking eggs.

  • @lorirocks777 Thanks for all the info. Definitely gonna try this a few ways and maybe get a poacher if I fail.

  • Didn't know they used real eggs. Thanks for the upload

  • how could you improvise making your own steam contraption at home... I'm tempted to rest a clothes iron above the ring haha!

  • i thought it was a tube like in clerks 2

  • I suck at cooking round eggs

  • wat did u pour at the end of the vid?

  • @plastic0000eraser Water, to poach them ;-)

  • @plastic0000eraser

    The water sits in top and evaporates. When its all gone the eggs are done.

  • @Unhallowedlaw I used to think the same, but actually the water seeps in creating steam which cooks the eggs, hence the term, poached eggs.

  • @lorirocks777 Poached eggs.. is actually being fully submerged in water.. not steamed.. js

  • @GreenPineapplez Didn't know that... so these are called steamed eggs?

  • @lorirocks777 id prob still call them fried eggs.. as its primary cooking source is the hot plate.. ha.. theres prob a french term for the technique used...

  • @GreenPineapplez Well if you don't put any water in, the bottom of the egg turns black and the top remains uncooked. The primary cooking source is the steam.

  • @GreenPineapplez also poached eggs arent in boiling water its simmering secondly this guy is really slow at cracking eggs and lastly this seems like it would most appropriately be called a basted egg... just saying

  • @SuperButterking Yes, I am slow.

  • you crack them eggs like a gangsta. you're the man! :)

  • pro baller at cracking eggs.

  • 0:39 - DELI!

  • @PJRehlaender You're obviously acquainted with the old system... :)

  • i always wondered this

  • Clean your grill fool!

  • your sick at cracking eggs

  • Ah man I was horrible at making these. Those trays were a pain to clean too. 

  • hey, its a pity, that you didnt show the result!!!

    but the video shows, that youre a "pro" at your ob and thats great.

  • @HadrianTyr Thanks! Yeah, it is a pity... Either the battery or the memory ran out at the point that the film stops. But you do see the end result in another video of mine: Making a bacon and egg roll...

  • What is the water for at the end and how does that work?

  • @RoxStockwell The water trickles into the midst of the eggs, creating steam which poaches the eggs, cooking them more evenly. If you try it without water they tend to look a lot more like scrambled eggs and the part of the egg touching the grill will get crispy. This way the egg stays moist and jelly like.

  • where is your yellow spatula to polk the egg yolk, and scrape off your grill there son

  • @shthd84 Have you got any idea how many comments like that I've recieved already? Do I have to redeem myself with my reasons to everybody? It's not really fair to judge unless you knew the circumstances.

  • I just realized that I haven't had McDonalds for the past 4 years.

    Yeah!!!

  • excellent job dood! its good to see you can make the best of a crappy job. i always thought they used some prossesed egg crap...i will rember this next time i eat a mcmuffin..good job!

  • @roskoeheat Thanks... And if it means anything, I don't actually think there is such a thing as a "crappy job"... just a crappy attitude. I really enjoyed my time there...

  • Why are you cooking them on the cold area of the grill?

  • @yurimxpxman I don't know if you've ever worked at McDonald's, but there is no cold area of the grill. The whole thing is the same temperature... it's electric and obviously metal conducts heat. Even the edge of the grill you see there is very hot. The grills get tested regularly to make sure the are the same temperature everywhere. One thing that you might like to note, is that for cooking eggs the grill are considerably cooler than for cooking meat, we adjust the temperature before breakfast.

  • @lorirocks777 I've been working at McDonald's for four years and a manager for three. (Not that I'm particularly proud of the fact, haha.) The entire grill is hot, yes, but the outer edges and the direct center of the grill are called the "cold zones." Those areas don't have a heating element directly beneath them, so they're substantially cooler than the rest of the grill (sometimes by as much as 50 degrees). It looks like you're in another country, though, so maybe your grills are different.

  • @yurimxpxman Oh... I didn't know that! :) I have noticed that there are differences in different countries... This video was taken in Australia where there is a strip of the grill that doesn't get covered by the top platten... But in my 6 years of cracking eggs I never noticed that they cooked any faster at the front or the back of the grill... and I often cooked them as in this video... but one at the front and one at the back.... even though you're only supposed to cook runs of 8 at a time

  • @yurimxpxman

    work @ McDonalds to, we dont crack eggs, we got 'pre-cooked' eggs, in a plastic wrap

  • I remember getting some egg shell in my mcsausage with eggs once. Haha it was crunchy...lol

  • so awesome!!! i love how he cracked the eggs ^+^ so fast~

  • what is the water for?

  • how do u cook eggs for macdonald breakfast the scrambled eggs

  • Nice, I'd be hopeless, I'd prolly burn them all :P No place does em better than maccas.

  • wow so fast.

  • the pan must be really hot, I mean like EXTREMLY HOT. Cause I saw the egg white drop a little on the pan, and it immidiatly became white

  • How do you guys make your egg roll for the portugese sausage egged and rice?

  • Yup that looks like where I work, same everything

  • Strange, real eggs... In America McDonalds uses liquid eggs in a carton.

  • @tberry223 in the us the muffin sandwhichs are made with round (real) egg and the biscuit sandwhiches are made with folded (egg mix) egg.

  • @tberry223 those ones in the tube shape?

  • @tberry223 The eggs in the cartons are scrambled eggs, we used to use those in the UK too. For all I know we still do, I just quit a long time ago so things may have changed! I'm pretty sure the McMuffin eggs have always been "fresh" ones though they were from battery hens until McDs started changing it's image and now they're free range.

  • @tberry223 I work at a mcdonalds here in florida and we use real eggs for the egg mcmuffin and we use the liquid eggs for the scrambled eggs on the big breakfast. then we have the folded egg which is already pre-made :P.

  • @tberry223 we use both in the US. for the round eggs we use real eggs, for the scrambled, we use the carton, and the folded are pre made.

  • @tberry223 they used real eggs here in california, but the ones one this video seem like organic eggs. i s till prefer my muffin with scramble egg though.

  • Mchappy. Hahaha.

  • I work at a mcdonalds store in Queensland, and I have some back area people that can crack 4 eggs with 2 hands! 2 in each hand it's nuts! also just wanted to point out that the proper procedure for when you poked each egg with a blue glove you should be using the yellow spatula =P

  • @gomoaus Thanks for pointing out the procedures... maybe about a quarter of the comments here are people doing that... but I think it's good to follow procedures. This video was taken at a time that I was in the habit of just using my gloves... which I thought was okay because they were just about to be thrown out anyway... but in hindsight... following procedures where possible is better. People have less to complain about.

  • @gomoaus I guess back then I started that habit because of the need to do eggs quickly. Another procedure is to only do 8 eggs at a time... and before we had the 8 rings we only had 6... but yeah! My Macca's was sometimes a bit short staffed... and I guess the less staff, the less procedures you follow.

  • ahh! i loove how the eggs are done :]

  • @itsxjoeellleee thanks... I wish you could've seen them coming out... they look so delicious... and pure

  • I THOUGHT U GUYS JUST USE FROZEN EGGS

  • can u get fired for this?

  • bacon n egg mcmuffin ftw

  • Ohhhh. I got my orientation tomorrow - But I'm on cashier until I'm 16 (I'm 15 now). I'm not sure if I'll switch when I'm 16... Should I? What are your opinions?

  • Teachhhh meeeeee. lol

    What did you pour in there at the end?

  • Water, to poach them =)

  • @lorirocks777 are they immersed in water? if not thats steaming not poaching... i do however wished mcd serve eggs sunny side up

  • woah..u gotta clean that stove a little bit lol

  • what!!! Thats how the eggs are little circles!

  • Very good egg cracking skill. I've never seen it done like that and I've studied cooking. I particularly love how you have four eggs at once - very time efficient!

  • Thanks for the compliment =)

  • What does he spray at the beggining?

  • That's supposed to be butter... but I'm not too keen on it.

  • looks like you have mastered the egg cracking :)

  • hehe... well after working there so many years, it started to come naturally. Some mornings I would crack up to 400 eggs or more.

  • nice so you actually use fresh eggs ?? nice

  • Yeah... unlike burger King. I think it's great.

  • that was very excellent video keep making more i rated your video four stars check out my video it's called cooking with cornelious Thanks

  • Thanks... I've got another one now of me making a bacon and egg roll.

  • Very interesting. Well done. Nice 2 hand technique there.

  • I thought they used like those factory eggs..... I was surprised

  • I LOVE the eggs in the McMuffins! I've always wondered how to make those at home!

  • Why do you break the yolk? For more even cooking?

  • We break the yoke so people don't get burned if the yoke cracks while they're eating a muffin...

  • I would've guessed that the used some sort of automated egg-cracking machine....looks like I guessed wrong.

  • Wow very impressive skills, thanks for caring about your customers, by the way how long do you steam the eggs for?

  • When you slip a little steam under the lid when grilling something, it's called basting (or at least it is in culinary school).

  • cool... =)

  • how do you guys cook the scramble egss?, their really good.

  • Amazing that I've never head a shell in my McMuffin.

  • it's very interesting thta the butter IS LIQUIDIZED UNDER A NORMAL TEMPURATURE

  • Does anyone know where to find one of these tools? I used to use one of these when I worked at McD's as a kid and want to buy one.

  • I work overnights and i have to start the breakfast at 4am, but i have one question for you. How do you break eggs with one hand?? lol i always hate making the eggs because i have to go 1 by 1.

  • Yeah, it was a bit awkward for me too at first. But if you do eggs often enough, you get used to it. In the beginning you might be picking shells out for a while.

    Start with the hand you're most comfortable with first and practise with that. Crack the egg and use your thumb to move the shell apart and your fingers to support the other side. That's it. When you can do it with 2 fingers and a thumb, you can use the smaller 2 finger to hold another egg, like I do here.

  • Where i live its different. We dont use blue gloves. And the eggs arent round. They are rectangular and we fold them. I did overnight yesterday and i started practicing craking them with 1 hand but i had to pick up shells a lot lol. But practice makes perfection. Only thing i dont like is that since we dont use the blue gloves, the gloves i'm using to make the food get covered with egg.

  • yeahh well learn one hand at a time, even though the correct procedures dont recommend you crack 2 eggs at a time, due to some people get alot of egg shells in the eggs, and yeah someone mentioned it, yellow spatula mate haha, with a small twish motion of the spatula to break the yolks, and also one more thing, bulk cooking, do one run wait 10 seconds then put down next so that when the first timers go off, you have time to get them up before the next ones, so they dont cook for too long :)

  • never knew they used real eggs lol

  • u followes all urs procedures..but u need to be using yellow spatula to break egg..your consultant will fire u if he sees using hands..mcd uses the best food safety policy ever possible..n more u need to clean ur grill a bit..anyway u r good ..just focus on bit cleaning and blue gloves procedure..

  • Thanks.. and I agree. This video was taken quite a while ago... during my 5th year of working there... I was a bit complacent about scraping down the grills... but as time went by I go into the habit of scraping after ever run. Everything you cook just looks so much better! (like bacon and sausage)... In this case most of the mess on the grill was from egg yolk burning on while I was cracking the eggs, in front of where they were poaching, so it didn't effect the eggs too bad.

  • I remember the yellow spatula! And you would use the white spatula to take the eggs off the grill where they're done. It's funny the things I remember from my first job YEARS ago.

  • Cool vid man. I love McD's poached eggs.

  • i want one NOW =[ haha

  • Pro egg cracking skills. I thought McDonalids used powdered eggs or something, I guess not.

  • I was wondering do you happen to know where to find those eggs that was used in clerks 2? a few names ppl use for it, egg logs or egg loaf.

  • I have a question for you.. as I saw it..

    U butter the grill.. then put the eggs.. cover them up.. and add water..

    Does the water goes inside the metallic rings and touches the egg and becomes like a pouched egg? I wanna make sum mcmuffins :D

  • Yes, exactly =)

  • I work for mcdonalds, the water goes through that funnel thing at the top and goes inside, steaming the eggs.

  • Hi, Do you know how long the poached eggs are steamed for? What do they put in the scrammbled eggs, milk? They taste nice and soft.

  • I can't remember how long the eggs are cooked for, but the scrambled eggs don't get anything in them except for butter (the same stuff used to spray the grill before cooking the poached eggs)... damn, why can I still remember that?

  • it kinda looks gross- no offense but i never go to mcdonalds- i hate it!!!- i hate the fat a grease there! nasty!

  • Yeah, it's not that healthy is it? lol. It's when people can eat a huge meal without feeling sick that you know they've got a problem.

  • That's a dirty grill btw must not get a proper cleaning if its only used for eggs. Our grills are 15 yrs old and dont look like that in the morning. The eggs musta been over done at the end of its cook cycle. No yellow spatula?? it shouldnt be crusty because it should be sprayed off in between your levels, jus sayin.

  • Well if you wanted to get technical, grills should be replaced after 10 years, at least in Australia.

    I just make sure the eggs look good and taste good. The eggs were fine after the cook cycle, just like in the training video. Eggs were my main thing, I always received good comments at work. When it's busy you can't do everything, but I try to wash the egg rings at least once during breakfast.

  • It's not only used for eggs either. After getting cleaned it gets used to cook meat. I've been at Mc'ds for 6 years and that grill has never looked amazing, you can only do your best.

  • fake

  • Gd egg cracking skills lol

  • you should be written up boy. that is not how you are supposed to break the yolks.

  • Yeah.. but I find clean gloves to be better than a crusty spatula

  • Hi there the grills do discolour after been used for a long time. Also wow you have a spray gun for butter thats so much easier we use a brush and a pot of butter that sits on the grill. And is your assembly person struggling lol 3 orders brinnnng

  • Wow! I've seen the training videos for butter pots... that's so old school! I like the old ways... they're just neat somehow. Which country do you work in?

  • i work in the UK, do you not use pre staging cups then??

  • To be honest, the grill isn't that dirty. This was from before our store was 24 hour, and so it hadn't been in use for very long since getting a proper hi temp clean the night before.

    What looks like dirt or whatever is the color of the grill.. it's over 10 years old, so I'm not surprised.

  • You gotta be proud of yourself, son.

  • There not made like that anymore thou! N that grill should be scraped down after every Batch that is made!

  • wow, hes pro

  • nice amount of deli orders lol, well it is mchappy day so yeah, i work @ maccas in qld

  • the oven is dirty, but those egg cups arnt.

  • It's not really dirty.... it's actually the colour of the grill... kind of like how a barbecue turns brown after several years of use. It gets a proper chemical procedural clean once a day and steam cleans every 2 hours in between. The only thing that has been cooked on that grill since opening the store is eggs... and there's no way eggs make that kind of dirt...

  • dammm that stove looks dirty,,, im never eating eggs at Mcdonalds

  • It's not really dirty.... it's actually the colour of the grill... kind of like how a barbecue turns brown after several years of use. It gets a proper chemical procedural clean once a day and steam cleans every 2 hours in between. The only thing that has been cooked on that grill since opening the store is eggs... and there's no way eggs make that kind of dirt...

  • at least now i know that their eggs are real XD

  • lol, thats why I watched this vid

  • what are you making?

  • Nice one.

    Although the grill could have used a steam beforehand haha...

  • Nice to know in Australia they use real eggs...here in America Mcdonalds doesnt----shame

  • here in utah they use real eggs .. I know because i had clear uncooked egg whites in my mcmuffin...

    It might be that some do not use real egg but i think most do.

  • Mark, you are the egg king! Did you do the overnight that night?

    I also love how foster is drinking his coffee in the kitchen at the start of the video ;)

  • Gah, scrape that 10:1 grill down young boy. Good to see im not the only person who can do two eggs at a time though!

  • hey like everyone can crack with two hands at my store

  • Holy fuck man that grill is dirty, you shouldve at least steamed it first :P

  • i always thought they use like foam instead of eggs.u kno it looks like foam and tastes like it sometimes.but i always thought they never used eggs

  • wow u dont think much
