KFI: McRib lovers rejoice – your favorite sandwich has returned to 10,000 McDonald’s restaurants around the country – but you’ll want to hurry because it’ll only be featured on the menu for a limited time.
The seasoned boneless pork sandwich featuring tangy barbecue sauce and topped with onions on a sesame seed roll, made its legendary debut back in 1981, but a lackluster response to the sandwich led the company to remove it from its menus four years later. However, the McRib had some developed some devoted fans, prompting McDonald’s to bring the sandwich in 1989. After 2006, the restaurant introduced the McRib as a seasonal item, with the sandwich occasionally appearing on menus across the country for a limited time. read more
SNIP: Well… No. lol!
How about you guys?
Rather have pumpkin spice Spam!
The McRib is rib-ish the way McNuggets are chicken-ish.
Both are OK/meh as long as you don’t think about them much.
Krusty: “Look, about the ribwitch; there aren’t going to be any more of them. The animal that we made ’em from has been hunted to extinction.”
Lenny: “Cow?”
Carl: “Pig?”
Krusty: “You’re WAY off…Think smaller…think MORE legs!”
If I have one I usually schedule a colonoscopy for the next day.
Don’t worry, when you’ve had your fill of them this year, some of it will still be in your gut when McRib season rolls around again.
Tenacious stuff.
Speaking of Spam, Spam With Bacon is not too bad.
Chop it up and put it in your omelet. It’ll make your beard grow, Uncle Al.
Or have Spam Spam eggs and Spam.
Or for a little variety, have Spam and eggs and Spam.
My brother loves that sandwich. He also likes hotdogs right out of the package! (un re-heated..as in cold) YUK to both!
The McRib – the original McPlant “meat” sandwich.
No thank you..
I had a half rack of real baby back ribs at Longhorn yesterday. Real ribs have real rib bones in them.
When asked to comment, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said she hopes they taste more like real ribs than those ribbed condoms she tried last week.
McD’s best days for fast food are long gone. $0.15 hamburgers were dining out food for a low budget college couple. Nasty, gooey paste on a bun is really scraping the bottom of the scrap barrel now!

The more you know…
Had a McGristle once. Once. I doubt I finished it even though I was poor.
Mmmmmmmm… Ribwich….

Who cares. I eat food.🤢☠️
I’m 40 miles from a franchised hamburger joint…20 miles from a Subway…..Sometimes I crave Taco Bells bean burritos or a good ol’ fashioned gas station chili cheese dog. I can reproduce those like butta…
My White Castle sliders are things of beauty…..I’m pretty sure that I’ve never had a McRib. My ribs are slow smoked for about 4 hours, slathered in sauce and will make your tongue slap your brain silly….
PHenry- I used to eat the chicken mcNuggets till they started to make them from cartilage
Had one of these … things … once. Yuk.
When I lived in MN, I used to go to Rudolphs Bar-B-Que. Yum!
Had great BBQ at Joe Dan’s (Intellectual Froglegs) cookout in August.
So long as I can agitate a muzzie and a chinaman that’s deprived of their favorite meat in a 2-fer, HELL YEA, I’ll eat it front and center.
It’s McMeat… but I’ll probably have one for old time’s sake.

Apologies for co-opting Martin Mull’s jingle for his mythological chain, Bun and Run.
Announcer’s voice….within hours after they seem dead they’re quick frozen.
KFC used to have ribs about forty years ago. I remember liking them, but being about twenty years old at the time…. I also liked Animal Beer
Muslims get ’em at Sam’s Club allah time:

Oh, wait —

I actually like McRib’s, but I haven’t had one in years. I did make some a couple of years ago…On-Cor BBQ rib patties, sub roll, pickles and onions. Wasn’t bad. Um yeah, why did I share that? haha
How come the McRib I remember didn’t look anything like that picture.
Hey JD, Animal Beer is still good. At least it was the last time I had one. Ribs at KFC I’m not so sure.
Oh, Good Lord, KFC Ribs has a facebook page

Evidently a lot of others remember them fondly

Years ago I liked the McRib, a few years back when they brought it back I tried one and it was inedible. I went to McDonalds Saturday because my grandkids wanted a happy meal. It was over $40 for 5 of us to eat, with two of them eating kids meals. My Big Mac and fries were both disgusting.
Saturday night on the way to derby we stopped and fed them Wendys, 6 of us that time ate for under $30 and got way more food that you could actually eat.
I kind of think McDonalds is lying and is already serving plant burgers.
@PHenry ~ loved ‘Ferwood Tonight’ (one of the most underated tv shows of the ’70’s imo)… they actually had it on every weeknight, the first year … I think something like 65 episodes
the Alien Abduction episodes (season 1, episode 27/28) w/ Fanny Flagg & Kenny Mars were some of the greatest ad-lib comedy ever! … “I was there, it looked like a toaster!”, “You better be quiet or I’ll come over there & snap your chinstrap!”
… classic!
Does it come with a side of baby?
Soooo glad they’re back, helps me forget my troubles, and it’s mouthwatering pork flavor can’t be beat!
I guess with some foods, it’s as much about the texture as it is about the flavor….I guess…
