Personally have never tried either of these and honestly McRib has always given me the creeps. Just funny how I am seeing all the McRib adds now. Anyone here ever try?

I'm a closet lover of McRib. I don't know what it is about it, because it certainly doesn't resemble anything that I could make myself, and make it better. It's curious, but I love it.-
Pretty much like anything at McDonald's, their burgers don't really seem like any burger I'd ever make either. But, I like them and the McRib and, once in a while, McNuggets. I think its as much a nostalgia thing as anything. Much like White Castle's -- if they didn't get you young, you probably don't like it.

Much like the brisket sandwich at Arby's, these are pretty good as long as you don't think of them as real ribs, brisket, etc.Comment

McRib consists of a restructured boneless pork patty shaped like a miniature rack of ribs, barbecue sauce, onions, and pickles served on a 5 1â„2 inches (14 cm) roll. The process of restructuring the meat was first developed by the US Army as a means to deliver low cost meat products to troops in the field.Comment

This confirms something for me then. I don't have a very limited palate, and I guess I can blame the Army for that. Back in the day, MREs did not bother me one bit. The 'pork patty' MRE was particularly sought after by several others in my platoon, believe it or not.
Guess that's why I like the McRib. I keep it to one/maybe two sandwiches per 'McRib Season' though.

DiverDriver I will confess to having eaten a McRib back in the 1980's, and not being super impressed with it. I had one again a couple of years ago when the re-introduced it, just to see what it was about, and if it was as bad as I remembered.
It's just a ground pork patty smothered in BBQ sauce, on a bun. Nothing exciting or really very appealing about it to me, and I would get a Big Mac or Quarter Pounder over it, but that's me. If you like pork patties better than beef patties, and like BBQ sauce, then maybe its your thing!

I love the McRib. My wife calls it the McMystery meat. But Harry Soo loves it too, and he made a you tube video cloning it. I haven't got around to trying it yet, but since they are back at McD, I will be having a few:

I have been curious about McRibs for years, but not curious enough to try one....Comment

I get a McRib every now and then. Part of me enjoys it but most of me regrets the decision.
One of these days when I have a free day I want to give this a try: https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/...ib-recipe.htmlComment

I remember trying one back in the 80's as well and the texture kind of grossed me out. But at least I checked that box.Comment

BJ's or Costco (can't remember which) used to sell complete, fully cooked and assembled faux McRib-type sandwiches frozen in packages of six or 8. They could be heated nicely in a microwave. I used to keep them in the freezer in my basement family room and eat them for lunch on occasion. This was about 30 years ago. I haven't seen them recently, that I can recall.Comment

To me it is just ground pork covered with a sweet KC type sauce, onions and pickles. The meats a little tough, but overall not all not a bad sandwich. I won't go out of my way but will get it if i'm around an McD's at lunch time. There are a lot worst sandwich's out there.
