It has a cult following, and they bring it back for a month or so every few years as a special promotion.....
One time I went there when they were advertising that it was back and they had sold out.

So it must be good.

I actually had a McRib sans onions for lunch today, and it was pretty good in all of its mystery meat gooeyness.....

Just looked it up:

The McRib is made from ground boneless pork shoulder.

Ingredients: The McRib's ingredients include pork, water, salt, dextrose, and rosemary extract.

Process: The pork is emulsified with water, spices, dextrose sugar, and preservatives to refine its flavor and texture.

Shape: The patty is shaped like a miniature rack of ribs.

Here's what Wiki says about the McRib sandwich:

The McRib consists of a restructured boneless pork patty shaped like a miniature rack of ribs, barbecue sauce, onions, and pickles, served as a sandwich on a 5+1⁄2-inch (14 cm) roll. Meat restructuring was developed by the US Army to deliver low-cost meat to troops in the field. The process was refined by a Natick Army Labs meat scientist, Dr. Roger Mandigo, leading to the McRib patty. It is primarily composed of ground pork shoulder.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McRib#...ork%20shoulder.

Man, this thread has really gone off the rails.

I'm glad this a$$wipe got caught.

Now back to the important topic; what do y'all (not to be confused with awl) have with your McRib? Fries? a salad?

I'm thinking about going out in the morning and having one. I wonder if they are on the breakfast menu too.

Got my first McRib sandwich tonight; just 'cause of all the hubbub. Sorry, didn't like it. Thought it was slimy and just full of BBQ sauce.

That's a shame Esteban, the one I had in S. London a while back was really nice with just the right amount of sauce and went well with the side salad.
