Chicken McRib now Available

chicken_mcrib

We have just captured details about a Chicken McRib sandwich becoming available today (August 29, 2013) nationwide in Malaysia.

First tipped off by @worldofsharlene as she was about to try the new Chicken McRib, we quickly were able to track down that this new variation of the classic is available for a limited time in Malaysia.

The Chicken McRib is available from 11am-4am daily while the promotion lasts. As the picture hints, you may order a single or a double patty. They describe it on their facebook page as ” Juicy ribbed chicken patty cooked to perfection, amazing taste of sweet & tangy barbecue sauce, zesty pickles and slivered onions wrapped in a warm, cornmeal bun – just one of so many reasons why the Chicken McRib is awesome!!”

 

What do you think, would  you give this sandwich a try?

Does the McRib taste different this year?

We have been hearing a few reports that the McRib tastes different this year. If you could change one thing with the McRib, what might it be?

 

If you have had the opportunity to have a McRib this year, do you think anything has changed?

McRib Return Shortened?

KDVR is reporting that the McRib will be a a available in the Denver area only through September 22. This would be a departure in duration from the past few years were a availability typically lasted 3 months. That said, one of the early release locations last year only offered the McRib for around 2 weeks, so this may not be an indication of an overall reduction. The one certainty is if you are in the Denver area make sure to get your McRib fix in now as it will only be here for a very limited time.
 

If/when you find a McRib, please mark your sighting at McRibLocator.com and be sure to send us a photo (photos@mcriblocator.com) of your receipt showing the purchase so that we may mark it as confirmed.

 

McRib Returns in the United States for the 2013 Season

Just in from an email confirmation and from the Twitterverse, the McRib has returned in the United States for the 2013 season. Currently the McRib can be found in the Mile High City of Denver, CO as well as in surrounding locations along the I-25 corridor. @MrEerieMist feasted on a McRib in Porter, CO, and Mike emailed a photo of his receipt from Westminister, CO (and grabbed the first confirmed sighting of the season). @tobykdotcom also shared some of the signage at a McDonald’s drive-thru in Centennial, CO. Note that in the photo from @tobykdotcom the promotion for purchasing a second McRib for a mere single dollar will return again this season for some locations.

While the late August roll out is a bit earlier than typically has been the trend these past years, the early September release sounded within reason per our last post in July regarding the production spinning up. We started seeing some reports filter in Thursday August 22, 2013 in the Rocky Mountain State, and now with confirmation we start the pondering of where might the McRib show up next, and how long might it be staying around.
