The McRib, which contains a boneless pork patty, shaped like ribs, covered in BBQ sauce, with onions, pickles, and a toasted bun, will be on sale in the UK for a limited time from later this month
The 1980s McDonald's cult sensation, the McRib, is making a UK comeback. The distinctive barbecue pork sandwich, featuring a boneless pork patty shaped like ribs and smothered in tangy barbecue sauce, topped with onions, pickles, within a toasted bun, first won fans' hearts when it was launched in 1981 but mysteriously disappeared from the menu after only a few years.
Thomas O'Neill, the Head of Menu at McDonald's UK, 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." This eagerly awaited return seemed teased via cryptic hints on the McDonald's app, with curious notifications and "error" messages sparking frenzied speculation among eagle-eyed fast food lovers on social media, reports the Mirror.
