Good News for Rib lovers

McRib returns Wednesday [Dec 2nd]: McDonald's giving away 10,000 free barbecue sandwiches for fans who shave

I wonder if camping out in the drive thru to be first in line is allowed?

[GolfGeezer]

Do you have to shave there?

[Huskee]

beards not allowed

I hate myself for loving the McRib sandwich each time it comes out. I can't help myself.

McRib with PBR. "Good For What Ails You, able to cure any problem or illness!" 🙄

I'm with ya. For some dumb reason I am drawn to it.

The problem with this is that I can't drive up to a speaker, order it, and then eat it minutes later :-) I have read Meathead's version as well, and I admire that effort. But the periodic eating of the McDonald's version is just a right of passage. 'Merica at its finest.

The whole concept is WRONG. Who wouldn't choose real ribs over that fake crud? But somehow they made me crave that awful concept. :-)

This title reminds of a Bill Engvall joke years ago about how news anchors can switch stories, quickly....

Anchor- "....and the severed head was found next to the body."
Anchor immediately turning to another camera with a big smile- "Good news for egg lovers!!!"

I usually get one just for the sauce.....

I had a McRib once, back in the early 80's when it was a big deal. Thought it was a pretty gross thin overcooked pork patty with some bland sugary BBQ sauce, on an oblong bun. I never had one again for 20 something years. I tried it again when it came back around some time in the past decade, and still felt the same way - I don't think I finished it. Still rather have a burger, or go somewhere else to eat. I just don't get the attraction.

Now - Meathead's version sounds like the bomb, and something I will try if I ever have leftover ribs. I just don't seem to find myself thinking of making a sandwich when I have leftover ribs, unfortunately.

Ahhh the old restructured meat product on a bun with sticky sweet bbq sauce returns. So for those of you who sing the praises of Spam and look in distain at the McRib, got news for ya, it’s basically the same thing.

I’ve never had one and honestly at this point it’s highly probable I never will. Mostly because I’d have to actually go to a McDonald’s in order to get one and I can’t even tell you the last time that happened. Don’t get me wrong there are other sad excuses for food that I enjoy thoroughly but that’s for another thread...

McDonalds? Are they still open??
