McDonald's Confirms The McRib Is Returning To Menus After Nearly 10 Years
It's been nine years since it was last on menus!
In fab news for fast-food fans across the UK, it’s been announced that the legendary McRib is heading back to menus!
One of the most beloved burgers ever made by McDonald’s, the McRib first became a favourite all the way back in the 1980s following its introduction in 1981.
Boasting a tender pork patty, shaped like ribs and smothered in BBQ sauce, accompanied with onions, pickles and a toasted bun, the McRib was originally discontinued in 1985.
It has made several returns in the years since, but the last time it was sold in the UK was all the way back in 2015!

But now the wait is over, nine years on, you'll be able to get your hands on the tasty pork burger on its own for £4.49, or for £6.19, you can get it as part of a medium extra value meal.
The Head of Menu at McDonald's UK, Thomas O'Neill, said: “It is more than just a sandwich, it’s a phenomenon. We have heard our fans loud and clear - the fan petitions and pleas on social - and after almost a decade of anticipation, we are thrilled to bring back this iconic menu item.

“Knowing how well-loved the McRib is, we had very little choice - we had to make it happen. It was time to step up and satisfy the cravings of McRib enthusiasts across the country,” he boldly stated.
The news comes after some drama started among those with the McDonald's app, who got odd messages hinting to the return of the McRib.

Fans shared screenshots on social media as they were sent a message on their phone screen, which said: "McRib_Test.notification_16.10.24 [TEST]"
Other users claimed to see an error image notification in the app, alone with the McRib name and the launch date of 16 October.
