Thank you for that tip. Of course, the drive-thru cashier couldn't figure out how to make it plain, BBQ on the side, and no onions. So I got two plain McRibs with BBQ sauce in little plastic cups--and without onions or pickles. Oh well.
Anyways, being able to control just how much BBQ sauce you can put on it was a game-changer. For the second sandwich, I poured on some habanero BBQ sauce from a local BBQ restaurant. It was even better. The BBQ sauce cups did go well with the fries.
Next time, I'll just ask for no BBQ sauce and no onions and apply my own BBQ sauce at home.
