Update: McRibs in Japan

Last week we reported that the McRib had returned to Japan. Since then, the Web has been buzzing with details of their version of the McRib. I have found one blog that has a series of pictures of the McRib from it’s unveiling from the wrapper, to the tray insert, to various shots of the McRib itself Japanese McRib via Blog Post.
Additionally, I received another images of this McRib from a California resident visiting Japan.

McRib Returns in Orlando October 12, 2011?

I received an email this evening from Chris Norris in the Florida area. Enclosed in this email is a monthly event calendar for The Orlando, FL area McDonalds. Chris found this insert at McDonalds, specifically at the McDonalds near Universal Studios.


Most interesting is the entry on October 12.

Zoom in on October 12
This promotion is consistent with what was offered in many parts of the Midwest last year, and the timing again matches up with the release last year (actually this is the same day of October that the first report with favorable reviews from last year showed up).

2011 McRib Production in High Gear

I recently received an email from a source (thanks Stephen!) at Lopez Foods in Oklahoma City indicating that McRib patty production ramping up. They have increased production to 7 days per week in order to generate enough of the McRib patties for release in the near future. The McRib production goes to 7 day per week production, and as soon as the quota is reached, the McRibs patties are distributed to McDonalds.


For those of you that are not familiar with the suppliers for McDonalds, Lopez Foods is a family owned facility in Oklahoma City, OK. They are one of the main suppliers of Canadian Bacon, Hamburgers, Sausage Patties, and McRib patties to McDonalds and other corporations. Searching through the McDonalds site you can look for their suppliers and see their content for Lopez Foods.. Back in April of this year, Lopez Foods was showcased on Oklahoma Horizon. Here is the link to their video.


With the increased production, all signs indicate that the McRib will again be returning sometime yet this fall. Last year’s soft release in mid-October, and the patty production increase may hint to a similar release time frame this season.
