Congrats Sawyer!
We had a wide range of stories from amazing fans over the 2010 McRib season. Some of these stories show true dedication to the McRib, and others show why the McRib has such a large following. As such, we thought we would share a few of these stories by selecting a McRib Fan of the Week. We will have a few questions, and hope to provide a picture of the fan in mention.
Would you like to be the McRib Fan of the Week? Email us at weather@kleincast.com to make your case as to why you deserve to be the McRib Fan of the Week. We hope to carry this on throughout the year so there are still slots open, and check back to see if you are the Fan of the Week!
My wife has been working pretty hard on a few projects. After completing a grueling evening of work, she announced that she wanted to go to McDonalds. We bundled up (6 degrees out) and we and our two dogs jumped in the car and headed off to the nearest McDonalds. Cautious not to get our hopes up now that McRib season is in extra innings, we saw the always welcome McRib sign in the window at the McDonalds. We pulled up to the drive through to make our order. While not on the menu, we asked if the McRib was available, and were told that it was and our order was set.
Happy that we would be able to enjoy perhaps what would be our last McRib, we went to the first window to pay. The cashier was having a discussion with another employee. After they completed their conversation, the cashier informed us that he had just been told they were OUT of McRibs. We resorted to ordering a Filet-o-Fish.
Thus brings a conclusion to the McRib season here in Burnsville, MN. We will miss the late night runs for McRibs, although look forward to the next time it shall return…whenever that may be.

I recently received an email from a McRib fan in Mexico. The email informed me that the McRib was soon to arrive in Mexico, and gave a link to the Mexico McDonalds Site. I took a look, and sure enough, the McRib is going to be there soon (if not already). Watching the video(and if I translated the fine print correctly), it also appears that the McRib will be in Mexico through the start of April! Sounds like I might be getting ready for a trip across the border sometime later this winter.
Thank you for the tip Rodrigo!
As the McRib season draws to a close in the United States, it is a good time to see just how many McRibs people had. Please let us know how many you had by taking part in this poll. Thank you for your input.
Loading ...First off, I first must once again thank you the fans of the McRib that have contributed to the content on the McRib Locator. Without your help, there is no possible way that I could have individually done justice to the great sandwich that is the McRib.
With all of the information floating around, I felt that a blog may be a good way to gather the conversations into one place. I also intend to use the blog to show case some of the pictures that we the fans have taken with/of the McRib over these years. I also plan to hold some contests over the upcoming months, so make sure to check back when you can to make sure that you don’t miss out on your chance to participate.
Again, THANK YOU for your continued support.
