McRib Confirmed Sightings Review 11/14/2012

With the flurry of reports coming in, we thought we would share an image of the latest confirmed sightings so that you can more easily see if there is one near you. Confirmed McRibs availability appears to be focused in Texas, Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. Considering just a week ago the McRib was only in Texas (as well as San Salvador internationally), it is interesting to see how it’s availability is now distributed.



Keep in mind you can restrict your map to see only confirmed sightings by selecting “Only Confirmed Sightings” and clicking submit in the search dialog to the lower right of the McRibLocator.com map. You do not need to put in a range of dates to search to utilize this feature.

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.

Winner, Winner, McRib Dinner… err Necklace!

Last week, we posted about a pretty awesome McRib Necklace found at Catrina’s Toybox Etsy Store. Since our posting, she has increased the number of McRib offerings, including post earrings and dangle earrings (we are hoping for a ring option soon).

Anyhow, we have our winner. Using a random number generator, we have selected Amy, comment #3, as our winner!

We will be emailing Amy today. If, for whatever reason, she does not reply within 48 hours, we will choose another winner!

Thank you to everyone who entered and checked out  Catrina’s Etsy Store. It is always great to support other McRib fans!

Good Morning Sacramento!

Periodically we are asked to provide some media information about the McRib. This morning, we were asked to be part of the always entertaining Good Morning Sacramento program. Cody Stark (@TVCody on Twitter) provided a McRib report and we chatted about the McRib’s return.

Mcrib está de vuelta

While many McRib fans in the United States are still awaiting the return of the McRib, we have confirmed that it is back in El Salvador thanks to a tip from one of our fans (Andy). Upon loading the El Salvador McDonalds twitter page the image on the left is of the McRib. In reviewing their posts it appears that the McRib returned there around October 26th.



When viewing their website, we see the McRib is also in the mix of featured items as well.



It certainly is exciting to see that the McRib’s return is not limited to only the United States. We of course welcome sightings from around the world, so any and all sightings are welcome.

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.

Mayor McCheese Slips McRib Release Information

While they are having one heck of a party down in Texas, much of the rest of the country is left looking in from the outside and wondering when they too will be able to feast on a McRib in their neighborhood.

Don’t worry our fellow McRib Maniacs, we received information today that the McRib is still coming back in mid-December. Additionally we heard directly from McD’s HQ that there will be some lucky towns that will get it yet this month. With conformations in CA, KS, MO, and TX we can see this information already coming to fruition.


There are a lot of people that hunger for the McRib (including us). One way you can help is 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. The stomachs of McRib fans everywhere will thank you.
