Why?????????? Your ribs are so good, all you need to do is debone a couple and put them in a bun with the fixings! There ya go!  ;) If you were making them I would eat them, not Mickey D's!

This gives me an idea.  Extrude some casing-less pork "sticks" and if I add phosphates to the grind, it should bind them together (more or less). Home made McRib!!! Smoke & eat...   Of course Transglutaminase would work, but not like I keep that stuff laying around. Phosphates I do have (and it is a natural organic compound no matter how "chemically" it sounds by name).

Of course Serious Eats has a very doable version....

(just kidding - ain't gonna eat 'em)

Thanx, Mike, for the endorsement.  I wish I knew how to debone after smoking 'em.

It's a long story but I happen to know a very distinguished chef and author who thinks the McRib is delicious.  Just goes to show you that in the world of "barbecue" there are really no boundaries  ::)

For many (myself included), they are an occasional guilty pleasure that would surely lose my interest if they were a permanent fixture on the menu.

One man's Spam is another man's McRib.  :D :D  *

Actually, the one time I tried the McRib, I didn't think the taste was "terrible", but the texture was off putting. 

* disclaimer.  I love Spam! :)

Yup, darn near ruined a Yoder pellet grill.  Smoochy made a big comeback on the second attempt.

Alas, I am underprivileged as the McDs closest to me doesn't have the McRib. I think I will need to go into therapy.

Gus, the best therapy would be to cook your own ribs.  ;) ;)

No more Photobucket got anybody, the fix is in, the tables turned.

I tried to find one yesterday to no avail. It seems that maybe my area will not get them. I think I'll survive though :P

It seems pretty amazing to me that a worldwide franchise like McDonald's has different menus in different states and different areas. I survive on Hot and Spicy McChicken sandwiches in Texas, but I usually can't get them outside Texas. I like them because they are on the dollar menu.  I think Turtle goes down to his local McDonald's and orders fish soup and rice, but you can't get that here in Texas (not that I would ever order that...yuuk). And, to keep this rant going, you can order two Big Mac's or either two Quarter Pounders with cheese for $5 in Texas, but I haven't found that deal in any other state. Bummer. At Grand Canyon Village in Tusayan, AZ, a Big Mac sandwich is about $12 or about 3 times what it is all over America. OK, I'm through venting and I feel much better.

 At least I can get a McRib if I want one. Smoke, come on down and we'll go get a couple.
