There are three reasons why I’d pick McDonald’s over its fast-food competitors any day. First, the fountain Diet Coke. Second, the breakfast menu. Can you imagine your life without the Egg McMuffin or the Steak, Egg and Cheese Bagel? And, third, the McRib sandwich. A more delicious or elusive menu item has never existed—although the Taco Bell Mexican pizza is certainly giving it a run for its money. The beauty of the McDonald’s McRib is that you never know when it will pop back up on the menu. So it brings me great pleasure to tell you that, yes, indeed, the McRib is back.

When is the McDonald’s McRib coming back?

It’s back right now! But there is a slight catch: It’s only back at certain regional McDonald’s locations. The cities that are definitely getting the McRib are Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Miami, Los Angeles, Seattle and St. Louis. According to McDonald’s, it may also be available in other cities too, although none were specified. If you live outside of those eight metropolitan areas, you might have to go on a bit of a treasure hunt.

How long will the McDonald’s McRib be available?

The McRib’s availability is as elusive as the McRib itself. We only know that it will be back for a limited time, so if you are craving one, you should head to your local McDonald’s ASAP.

Are there any other new menu items coming to McDonald’s?

Yes! The McDonald’s holiday pie is also returning to menus starting on November 14. This pie is filled with a creamy custard and topped with rainbow sprinkles for an extra-festive spin. If you love a seasonal McDonald’s treat, then I think a trip to the Golden Arches is in your immediate future.
