The Carl’s Jr. Grilled Pork Chop Biscuit has 390 calories, 18 grams of fat, 9 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 1090 milligrams of sodium, 37 grams of carbohydrates, and 21 grams of protein.

The Carl’s Jr. Grilled Pork Chop Biscuit with Egg and Cheese has 530 calories, 29 grams of fat, 16 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 225 milligrams of cholesterol, 1360 milligrams of sodium, 39 grams of carbohydrates, and 28 grams of protein.

These numbers are for those sold in California. Nutrition facts for those sold outside of California or at Hardee’s will vary from these numbers.
