News: McDonald's McRib Makes Its Annual Return

The McRib is back at McDonald's. The popular limited-time item features a formed ground pork patty (shaped to vaguely resemble a mini rack of ribs) slathered in barbecue sauce and complemented by slivered onions and pickles on a long cornmeal-dusted roll.

It's selling for $3.19 in the Los Angeles area (may vary).

Select markets are offering a deal where you can get a second McRib for an additional $1 when you purchase a McRib Extra Value Meal (which is $5.29 at my local McDonald's).

The price has gone up a little bit since three years ago when I first tried the McRib. It was only $2.69 back then.

You can expect the McRib to stick around until the end of the year.

Update: 11/20/13: It's not a nationwide launch this year (but appears to be available in most markets). It's up to franchisees to choose whether or not they're selling it.
