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!

Leave a reply

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.

See the full interview here: Good Day Sacramento Interview

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 está de vuelta

Leave a reply

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.

McRib Revolution Continues in Texas, McRib event planned.

Leave a reply

As reported yesterday, we know the McRib has returned in parts of Texas. Today we received additional photo proof (via receipt photos and McRib photos) that the McRib is cropping up at several other locations there as well. We have had numerous other reports of the McRib at other locations, however without the photo confirmation we leave those to the fans in the areas to help us validate the sightings.

Here are few of the photos we received today:

Austin, TX McRib

Houston, TX McRib

Additionally today we received word of a McRib Madness Party coming up in the Houston area. In what is billing as the #PilgRIBage, there will be a “Texas sized” McRib Madness Party for McRib fans at 7606 Westheimer in Houston, TX (77057) on November 14th from 9pm until the boneless pigs fly home (or until around midnight, whichever comes first). Not only will you be able to feast upon the McRib, but there will be McRib giveaways, McRib Swag, a mobile gaming truck and other games, prices, music, and even a live local DJ on site.

For those unable to attend, we plan to have some pilRIBage photos to share following the event. If you go, feel free to send us photos as well as we suspect there will be a lot of fans at home drooling over the excitement in Houston. Follow along via Twitter @MCD_Houston.
