I tried one when they first came out in our market area, gotta be late 70's/early 80's, and it was pretty awful. Maybe they're better now, but once bitten, twice shy.Last edited by CaptainMike; October 7, 2021, 10:05 PM.

I’ve never had a McRib but the last couple of years AR reviews have had me intrigued. Unfortunately, I won’t wait in line. I don’t know about McDonalds’ outside of my sphere but 20 - 30 minute waits are standard for McMuffins/Big Macs around here. This has nothing to do with demand - staffing issues.
I still remember the “if you aren’t served within x minutes, your meal is free†days.

I remember when McDonalds actually made a reasonably good hamburger.
I will give my age away here and also remember a few other burger places that seem to have disappeared.
Griff's Burger Bar at 10 for a dollar.
Big Scotts - they specialized in burgers and a very good milk shake.
And my all time favorite for late night dining was Sambos.

>Cooked at Sambo's, fer quite some time, while adolescent. Wanna talk bout learnin yer Skillz??? Nuthin more fun than th 12-7 shift, dealin with alla th drunks after th bars closed. To add icing to th cake, frequently, we would have a Greyhound Bus ctd->

Not one th Die Hard Fans of th McRib, but I'll eat em, when in season...they are what they are; nuthin more, nuthin less.(Same As It Ever Was)
They ain't never pretended to be otherwise.
Those ya what ain't never tried one, try ya one, fer Cripes Sake.
Don't open th box with any kinda cork sniffin negative bias, remain objective.Yer not at my pit, nor yer own. Be fair. Be objective, an scientific.
Write a review, if ya want...this is how Science advances.
Then, form an Edjumacated Opinion.
Love it? Great? Hate it? Great, as well. Yer call, faux chaux, hauxs.
This site is alla bout th Science of Food. Yes? No?
Formin a (prejudicial) judgement, havin never investigated th subject matter is decidedly Non-Scientific, an any output derived by this method is invalid, an useless to th rest of th Scientific Community.
Me? Where do I personally stand, on th McRib?
They otay, when at best; ~meh~ when not, which is true of every single visit I've made to McDonalds, an every menu item ever ordered....
