Description
The McRib is back at McDonald's for a limited time and Fast Food History is back as well. Hopefully for a less limited time :) The McRib is a barbecue-flavored pork sandwich periodically sold by McDonald's It was invented by the same guy that invented the McNuggets when there was a Chicken shortage.  It was first sold in 1981 and comes and goes from the menu from time to time (unless you are in Germany where it's on the menu all the time) To find where the McRib might be on sale, check out the McRib Locator.  (They think of everything!)
