As noted on the McDonalds Spain site, the McRib has again returned. This time the McRib is featured as part of their McMenu Easy promotion. From my interpretation of the promotion, this is similar to the Dollar Menu concept here in the United States, however has been expanded to include a select few value meals.
The McRib will remain on the menu in Spain through April 30, having actually started April 2nd.
Thank you James Frewin for reporting your sighting in Spain and tipping us off to the McRib availability!
Monday Dec 17th marks the start of the 2012 United States nationwide release of the McRib! We heard of some locations running out/holding back supply leading up to this pinnacle moment, however they assure their customers that the McRib will be available for this event.
Joe Paradise found this message when he stopped at a McDonald’s in Grayson, GA Dec. 15, 2012. “Due to the McRib being such a great item, we regret to inform you that we have no McRibs until tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience. McDonald’s Staff”
With the nationwide release only a short time away, now is an opportune time to enter our McRib photo contest for a chance to win a McRib Locator pen. We hope to have a few other prizes to offer soon, so make sure to capture a photo and share it with us at photos@mcriblocator.com.
We would also like to remind users of our website that we are constrained in the number of sightings we can show on the map at one time to around 500 sightings at a time. This being the case, if you scroll down under the advertisement for Catrina’s Toy Box you will see an option to search on the page.
You do NOT need to enter a start and/or end date if you do not want to, however you can provide the state/s of interest (in their 2 letter abbreviated form, separated by commas) and opt to show all sightings or only those that are confirmed.
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.
With the flux of McRib confirmation emails coming in, we like to look for and share unique photos of the McRib and/or promotional material around the McRib. Today we noticed that the McRib promotion is calling the McRib “the Ultimate Pork Sandwich” and the title is fitting (at least from our point of view).

As we count down the days until the return of the McRib, we would like to have a friendly contest of who can provide the most unique photos (family friendly of course) of the McRib and/or McRib promotional material. Send your picture to photos@mcriblocator.com before December 20th and we will sort through and showcase the images we think are best. Following this, we will ask that you vote on which photos you like most and the winner will receive one of our McRib Locator pens.
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.
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.

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.
