2017 US McRib Fall Release

2017 Release

We have received information on one area within the US where the McRib will see a release this fall. During the first week of November, the McRib will again return to Florida! The McRib will arrive on menus in Florida where it was most recently on the menu this past March. For those that do not recall, this was the following counties: Bay, Calhoun, Gulf, Washington, Walton, Jackson, and Holmes.

We will update you with more information about the 2017 release as it becomes available. We haven’t heard if this year will be a nationwide release, or the same regional/store-by-store marketing as we have encountered over the past few years. Most likely, this will again be a store-by-store offering.

Brazil – Cheddar McRib

The McRib has returned to Brazil (thank you for the heads up Leonardo)! The offering in Brazil this year is part of their #FestivalCheddar, rounding out a trifecta of cheddar sauce enhanced offerings. The festival kicked off September 12, 2017.

Isolated McRib

Cheddar McRib gif

Taking a closer look at the McRib, we see it served on a sesame seed circular sandwich bun, with what appears to be caramelized onions layered over cheddar cheese sauce on top of the 100% Pork McRib Patty which rests on BBQ sauce. This offering also differs from the classic McRib as it does not include pickles and the pork patty does not appear to be slathered with bbq sauce.

Brazil #FestivalCheddar Commercial

Within the commercial, we see a person eating the McRib sandwich. We can see that the patty extends outside of the bun due to the shape of the patty being rectangular vs the circular bun.
