US McRib Return

With the recent return of the McRib to Guatemala, we have been tracking down details of the US 2018 McRib return.  We have heard from multiple fans, and via our phone calls to stores around the country that the McRib will be returning to some US locations in October, November, and/or December. Several of the places I called did not think the McRib would be back, however one store indicated that it would likely be at corporately owned stores. We also know that the McRib will be returning to a number of non-corporate stores.

McRib returns with a new twist in Central America

Twist on a Classic

Nearly a year ago, we saw the McRib return to Central America. Due to the popularity, it has again returned, however with a slight twist in the marketing of the sandwich. This year the sandwich is being advertised in it’s “classic” option as well as new “with cheese” and “with bacon” options.

Thus far the promotion appears to be limited to Guatemala, and just started being promoted there on October 5th, 2018. Their website doesn’t yet mention the McRib, and is still promoting their 50th Anniversary of the Big Mac. This Big Mac promotion is still ongoing in neighboring countries as well, so it is possible that the page will be updated to showcase the McRib as soon as other McDonalds stores in the region begin offering the sandwich.
