McDonald’s Brings Back McRib in UK After Nearly a Decade

McDonald’s fans, rejoice! The iconic McRib is making a grand return to UK menus on October 16, after vanishing since 2015. This legendary pork sandwich is back — but only for a limited time.

What’s the McRib?

The McRib features a boneless pork patty shaped like ribs, drenched in smoky BBQ sauce, and topped with onions and pickles, all sandwiched in a toasted bun. It first appeared in the UK way back in 1981 but was axed four years later due to lukewarm sales.

Years of fan petitions finally paid off, prompting McDonald’s to bring back the cult classic.

Price and Availability

  • McRib solo: £4.49
  • Medium meal: £6.19

McDonald’s is warning fans to act fast. The McRib will only be in select restaurants for a short spell, so don’t miss out.

McDonald’s Speaks Out

“It is more than just a sandwich; it’s a phenomenon. We’ve heard our fans loud and clear, and after almost a decade of anticipation, we are thrilled to bring back this iconic menu item,” said Thomas O’Neill, Head of Menu at McDonald’s UK.

This announcement follows a teaser earlier this year when the McDonald’s app dropped mysterious hints about the McRib’s comeback, fueling excitement among loyal fans.

Get ready to sink your teeth into the McRib again — but be quick, it’s only around for a limited run!
