Here is the latest McRib News for October 11, 2024. The McRib Returns with a new option in one market, the UK release date is set, and we have more information about the US release date.

McRib Returns in Guatemala

Guatemala likes to get ahead of the US on the McRib release, and has done some again this year. As has been the case the past few years, they have three variations on the McRib. New for this year, they have replaced the Jalapeño McRib with a Pineapple McRib! Also back are the classic McRib and the Bacon McRib.

The McRib is part of a “Western” theme this year, with a Texas Omelet breakfast sandwich on the menu too. This actually appears to be a throwback to the US campaign from the 80’s. Here is a photos from the 80’s US promotion.

McRib Return date set for UK Customers

The METRO out of the UK has confirmed that the McRib will be returning to customers there on October 16th, 2024. This was also teased in a recent promo video on the McDonalds UK YouTube page. They are continuing with their “accidental” release as was the strategy used with the “test” text messages sent out earlier this year.

McRib Return date for US Customers more certain

The Springfield News-Leader is reporting that the McRib will return in the Missouri US market on November 27th. This falls in line with what we found recently when sampling the US stores for release availability. Expect the US to see a soft release leading up to the 27th release. Just in time for Thanksgiving!
