CHICAGO, Oct. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- We have good news, and we have bad news. The elusive McRib® is finally back…BUT this could be your last chance to get it. After three straight years headlining McDonald's® nationwide menu each fall, the iconic sandwich is embarking on a "Farewell Tour" – giving fans across the country one more chance to experience a taste of the McRib at participating McDonald's restaurants starting Oct. 31.

Key Points: 
  • Like any true farewell tour, we're hoping this isn't a "goodbye" but a "see you later."
  • Because as our McRib stans have experienced time and time again: you never know when or if the McRib is coming back.
  • "500 McRIB MILES"- The McRib became so popular that in 2008, a superfan came up with the McRib Locator , a way to finally track where in the world McRib aficionados could find the delicious sandwich.
  • In 2021, superfans like Rodney Harris tried to convince their friends to indulge in the barbeque-y goodness of the McRib.
