As an onion ring fan, this new McRib with onion ring sounds very interesting. Thanks to Jorge C, we have the following photo of an actual sandwich ordered in this configuration. We were told that this tasted “amazingly delcious”.

Brazil – Cheddar McRib

The McRib has returned to Brazil (thank you for the heads up Leonardo)! The offering in Brazil this year is part of their #FestivalCheddar, rounding out a trifecta of cheddar sauce enhanced offerings. The festival kicked off September 12, 2017.

Isolated McRib

Cheddar McRib gif

Taking a closer look at the McRib, we see it served on a sesame seed circular sandwich bun, with what appears to be caramelized onions layered over cheddar cheese sauce on top of the 100% Pork McRib Patty which rests on BBQ sauce. This offering also differs from the classic McRib as it does not include pickles and the pork patty does not appear to be slathered with bbq sauce.

Brazil #FestivalCheddar Commercial

Within the commercial, we see a person eating the McRib sandwich. We can see that the patty extends outside of the bun due to the shape of the patty being rectangular vs the circular bun.

McRib returns in Spain for 2016 appearance

Once again the McRib has jumped onto the menu for McDonalds customers in Spain. We were tipped off by Emilio with the following photo of his McRib.
Emilio's McRib

While advertised as the BBQ Rib sandwich, this variation is served on what appears to be a cornmeal topped bun, a bit different in composition than the bun used on the traditional US version.
Here are a few more shots from McDonalds Spain
