With just a few days before the official release, I wanted to provide an update on where we are currently at in the rollout of the 2021 US McRib Release.
McDonalds 2021 Promotion
McDonalds has announced their 2021 McRib promotion, and it will be an opportunity for McRib fans to win a NFT (non-fungible token). These digital version of the McRib will go out to 10 fans that are selected from a list of participants. To participate, fans need to retweet the Sweepstakes Invitation between November 1 and November 7th. More details about this promotion can be found in the link above. When the sweepstakes promotion starts we will share a link here. They even include a reference to the McRib Locator in their press release.
Confirmations
Many confirmations are coming in ahead of the designated November 1st release. Thank you for each report and confirmation! You are a critical piece of making this crowdsourcing effort work! New to the experience? Make sure to first report your McRib sighting on our webpage. After adding your report send us a photo of your receipt (photos@mcriblocator.com) showing which location you purchased your McRib at. Once we have your report and confirmation we will mark the sighting confirmed! Here is the latest map of confirmations.
Fun Stories
There have already been some very interesting stories coming in of McRib ordering experiences. From managers running the first McRibs sold to the customer waiting outside, to creative ways of selling the McRib when they are not yet in the system, we love to hear about your experiences with the McRib. Please share with us any unique experiences you have so that we can share these with other fans!

Upcoming Giveaway Opportunities
While not the pens or window clings offered in the past, we do have a couple of items that we will be giving out to fans this season. Stay tuned for more details!
We still want your confirmations
While we know that most if not all US locations will be offering the McRib by November 1st, we still want to hear from you about your confirmations. Unfortunately at some point the McRib will drop from menus again. At that time we want to make sure fans can still secure those last McRibs of the season, or possibly to stock up for the offseason and we need your help to get the latest information to other fans. We will take every report and confirmation we can get!
