Just the meat might be OK, maybe riblets served with a bit of fruit sauce and sides of green salad and French fries. Now I'm getting hungry.

I had their side salad for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and it was actually pretty good. I would get it again.

The meal you describe doesn't sound bad at all.

I haven't had one in probably 10 years. The problem I have/had with it is that it's totally drenched in (a not good) BBQ sauce. It makes for a drippy, slippery mess. It would be so much better if there was just a light glaze of BBQ sauce. The raw onions also ruin it.

I always order without onions. You can ask for them to not put sauce on it and just get the bbq on the side, also never an issue.

Where on the official site did you see a place that said they had it? The McRib Locator doesn't show anything remotely near me. There has to be a McRib somewhere in NYC.

This can be the goal for your next work trips, although I suspect it's too late to pick routes with that in mind.

I don't entirely trust that website anyway. It's very strange and most of the locations it does bring up say they don't have it.

That neat trick is just cooking them right and pulling them out :)

Same for pork roasts, bone in beef roasts, if you're cooking them to be tender the bones should just come out clean.

I need to pick up a couple of these ... one is not enough !!

This is purported to be the official site. McRib

I wonder if I'll be able to get one at christmas.

Great, 50 miles from me. Either there is no real site, or I am not getting a McRib :(

The linked site says nothing near me at all, which is surprising as I think of the Midwest (and South too) as being pork country

This is what I get:

It's a weird site - I put in different zip codes and get different mixes of restaurants. For example, if I put in a zip code for about the center of Kansas City, I get shown a many options extending 25 miles south but zero options going north, as if the Missouri River is a magic McRib Line.

Then I throw in a zip code that is barely north of the river, and all of those McDonald's show up.

So I *think* it's everywhere, but I don't actually care enough to go find out.
