Great news for our friends in Canada, as we previously reported, the McRib would be making a long awaiting return in Canada this year. Just in, we have had our first confirmation from Canada. The confirmed sighting was in Niagara Falls, Ontario! Thank you to Kate Ip for sending this information to us! We now wait to see if the McRib will be widely available in Canada, or a limited release. At any rate, finally McRib fans in Canada do not need to leave the country to get their fix!

We have just received a confirmation for the McRib from a McRib fan (thank you Juan) from Guatemala! Additionally, we found that the launch appears to have been today or yesterday based on their Facebook and Twitter accounts. We have included their current promotional images below the confirmation receipt below.

We have just captured details about a Chicken McRib sandwich becoming available today (August 29, 2013) nationwide in Malaysia.
First tipped off by @worldofsharlene as she was about to try the new Chicken McRib, we quickly were able to track down that this new variation of the classic is available for a limited time in Malaysia.
The Chicken McRib is available from 11am-4am daily while the promotion lasts. As the picture hints, you may order a single or a double patty. They describe it on their facebook page as ” Juicy ribbed chicken patty cooked to perfection, amazing taste of sweet & tangy barbecue sauce, zesty pickles and slivered onions wrapped in a warm, cornmeal bun – just one of so many reasons why the Chicken McRib is awesome!!”
What do you think, would you give this sandwich a try?
Just in from an email confirmation and from the Twitterverse, the McRib has returned in the United States for the 2013 season. Currently the McRib can be found in the Mile High City of Denver, CO as well as in surrounding locations along the I-25 corridor. @MrEerieMist feasted on a McRib in Porter, CO, and Mike emailed a photo of his receipt from Westminister, CO (and grabbed the first confirmed sighting of the season). @tobykdotcom also shared some of the signage at a McDonald’s drive-thru in Centennial, CO. Note that in the photo from @tobykdotcom the promotion for purchasing a second McRib for a mere single dollar will return again this season for some locations.

While the late August roll out is a bit earlier than typically has been the trend these past years, the early September release sounded within reason per our last post in July regarding the production spinning up. We started seeing some reports filter in Thursday August 22, 2013 in the Rocky Mountain State, and now with confirmation we start the pondering of where might the McRib show up next, and how long might it be staying around.

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.
