Wife and I had our Annual McRib Sandwiches today. They seemed...meatier and firmer than before and bigger than the bun. Wife only ate 1/2 of hers so, (smile) I had 1 and 1/2. The real surprise was the fries were hot. If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.

I have still never tried a McRib. I hadn’t eaten at a McDonalds since high school until the movie about them came out and made me want to try the original hamburger again. Once in a while I will get a hamburger and fries. Their fries are probably the best of most places. People seem to either love or hate the McRib. A may give it a try so I can say I did and see what I think. NRA Benefactor Life Member | |||

OOOH! I like the way you think, that is gonna be on my try list. And to those who say don't eat them in their vehicle. Only real Americans can manage it, 70mph, Coke in one hand, McRib in the other, and fries in the cup holder. I have seen this more times than I can count. | |||

I had one tonight and ordered it with light sauce. It was actually edible since the bottom tray was not slathered full of sauce like they usually are. I also think it was somewhat fresher than they normally are since it took a while before they had the meal ready. I will likely order another one this way in the near future to see if it is an improvement.

This is on the menu for lunch today. I have a doctors appt mid-day and should be able to pick one up in Flagstaff. A little hot mustard and we are in business! The “lol” thread | |||

$1 McRib in the McDonalds app today. I’m not gonna say I want my dollar back, but I’m really glad I didn’t pay full price, $5.19. | |||

So I didn’t make it in last week, but I did today. They must have changed something for the better. It’s much, much better than it was last year. Chucked out the pickles, added some hot mustard and life was grand! The “lol” thread | |||

Is there anywhere that truly shows what the McRib patty is made of? I was going to try one but I keep seeing it has over 70 chemicals in it and is made of pork shoulder, heart, and stomach. If that is the case, I can continue not knowing what one tastes like. NRA Benefactor Life Member | |||

Don't worry, the 70 chemicals are there to politely evict the trichina worms before they start charging rent. And honestly, if you’ve ever eaten gas station sushi, hotdogs, or mystery casserole at a potluck, the McRib is practically health food. The “lol” thread | |||

McDonald’s FAQs says it’s ground pork. How many amino acids make up a protein chain? That’s a lot of chemicals right there. When someone says something has chemicals in it, they might as well be saying water is wet. | |||

Not really. That expression is usually taken to mean substances not naturally occurring in the food. "If Gun Control worked, Chicago would look like Mayberry, not Thunderdome" - Cam Edwards | |||

Yes, but the problem is the people using it in that manner never seem to be able to articulate which substances they object to and or the reasons for their objection. A better analogy would have been people calling other people they disagree with Nazis. Usage of these words is almost a sure sign the user has no clue what they are talking about. To be clear, I’m not accusing members here of this, rather random crap that pops up when one searches online for what is in a McRib as well as much of the general population. I’m embarrassed that it happens in my own house even. I try to explain that before making blanket statements, one should be able to back those statements up and expect others to be able to do the same. Critical thinking. We’ll see if I was successful someday. | |||

I had a McRib at lunch today for the first time in at least a decade (last one was in Alaska and I moved away in 2014).

Well technically you can grind a pig’s tripe and heart and it is ground pork. NRA Benefactor Life Member | |||

Here in Austin, SLAB BBQ has a knockoff McRib sandwich with real boneless rib meat. I may go have it again as it was very good! $7.50.  NRA Benefactor Life Member | |||

^^ The McDowell looks delicious On Pg 2 of this thread, Chellim1 posted a video of 2 ways of how to make your own McRib.

Only the muscle portion of the heart and tripe is a by-product and would have to be separately listed. The USDA labeling requirements say: Hearts: Beef and Pork Hearts that include the heart cap are considered meat by-products defined in 9 CFR 301.2. They may not be labeled as beef, pork, etc. in an ingredients statement. When used in a product, they must be identified by species, for example, Beef Hearts. MEAT BYPRODUCTS: Byproducts must be individually declared by species and specific name in the ingredients statement, e.g., Pork Liver, Beef Tripe, and Beef fat. By definition, tripe is not meat: Meat. (1) The part of the muscle of any cattle, sheep, swine, or goats which is skeletal or which is found in the tongue, diaphragm, heart, or esophagus, with or without the accompanying and overlying fat, and the portions of bone (in bone-in product such as T-bone or porterhouse steak), skin, sinew, nerve, and blood vessels which normally accompany the muscle tissue and that are not separated from it in the process of dressing. As applied to products of equines, this term has a comparable meaning. (i) Meat does not include the muscle found in the lips, snout, or ears. (ii) Meat may not include significant portions of bone, including hard bone and related components, such as bone marrow, or any amount of brain, trigeminal ganglia, spinal cord, or dorsal root ganglia (DRG). | |||
