## Summary

McDonald’s is bringing the McRib back for a limited time from 27 October, but the sandwich will only be available at selected restaurants. Customers in some cities will miss out, so the company advises checking its app to see whether nearby locations are serving it.

The listed cities include Los Angeles, Chicago, Miami, Atlanta, Philadelphia and Dallas. Chef René Arend invented the McRib in 1981; it stopped being a permanent menu item in 2012 and has returned annually for limited runs since 2020. The latest promotion’s end date is unclear, and the sandwich continues to divide customers.
