McRib...

…taste like shit

I had such high hopes

High hopes for McDonalds food? I’m so sorry.

Really? Why? It has NOTHING to do with real pork ribs…And it’s from McDonalds…

Im an optimist.

Can I interest you in a slightly used Brooklyn Bridge?

How is this new? I remember eating these things 20 years ago…

From the excellent @Ruth Bourdain: The marketing of the McRib is fucking impressive, and I appreciate the enthusiasm, but you do know they are made out of people, don’t you?

Sorry, looking for a new one

Had one the other day, I remember why I haven’t had it for over 10 years. lol.

Here is another good reason not to indulge, 26 grams of saturated fat per sandwhich !

Along with 980MG of sodium.

What is it actually made of?

If Bob’s info is correct, then I think it was carved out of one of these.

Check out the filleted inside of the mcrib…

That looks sickening.

Maybe they got the Idea from Scotland’s King Rib. I have never had a McRib but I loved these after midnight in Edinburgh. Go to 2:00 Anthony Bourdain Visits The Mermaid FIsh Bar, Leith Walk - YouTube" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I think the ones they are serving now are the leftovers from 10 years ago. Seems McDs food never “goes away.”
Story around of someone who left a Big Mac on his desk for months and it never changed.

Also - this forum is “Epicurean Exploits.” Discussions of McDs food belongs either in an opt-in forum or the Asylum.

Deal with it

But seriously, either make a BBQ sandwich yourself from scratch, or pick up some cooked protein from your grocery store, add good BBQ sauce, and put it in your favorite sliced bun. I can guarantee you it will be vastly better (and more nutritious) than the crap that is a McD’s “McRib.”
