@@AlexZander688 Well it's McDonald's, what did you expect? It _is_ actual rib meat, just ground up and compressed back together after being taken off the bone. They can't serve a sloppy joe type sandwich with loose meat, so obviously it's processed. I didn't think it was as bad as you described; it was edible. Just like their hamburgers are going to disappoint you if you're hoping for a top grade hamburger off the backyard grill. If you want an authentic pulled pork sandwich then you shouldn't go to McDonald's for it. Comparing the McRib to that is like complaining that a Volkswagon Beetle doesn't go as fast as a Ferrari. It's like, no duh.
I remember when McRibs first came out. There was a lot of fanfare beforehand, and I couldn't wait to try one. But when I finally got the chance, I realized after just a couple of bites that the thing tasted awful. I haven't had one since.
Depends on the country. Overhere they sell temporarly special burgers normaly sold only in other countries. If that burger is liked its often sold out early. Once i have seen a fight between customers break out because he bought the last burger. Also they make special burgers who are designed for that market.
I get the concept, but I still disagree on the execution. I grew up in the UK...the last time I saw a McRib in the UK was many many years ago, possibly not even this century and it was super popular at that time. Now I live in China, where pork is cheap and indeed the favorite meat. No attempt to launch the McRib here. Finally, note that the McRib is very popular in Germany even while always being on the menu. I really don't think they're playing this game optimally.

There is no such thing as direct, nor indirect heat therefore the difference between barbecue and grilling can't be defined as such. If there were a definitive difference it would revolve around temperature over time, not made up terms and marketing hoopla.
I can’t believe I watched a documentary on a fast food sandwich... and loved it. Now you just need to do these irregularly, but always have them available in Germany. 😋
Thank you, Simon, for defining “barbecue” CORRECTLY! “People not from the South Think barbecue means cookout And that’s something they’re wrong about Barbecue is not a verb, and barbecue is not a grill! Barbecue is meat prepared in a very special way, depending on where you go!” - Rhett and Link
Not sure he actually defined it properly. "barbecue" comes from the french expression "de la barbe au cul" from the "beard to ass" in a figurative way of how an animal would be staked and cooked over a fire.
The word Barbaque…BBQ… however you want to spell it is from french when they stick a pole through the pig from the Barb (beard) A (to) Cul (ass) barb-a-cul - the fashion of making, cooking, and eating BBQ is of course much older and spread around the world
There was a period during the year here in WA where we ran out of meat in many grocery markets due to processing plant shut towns. Could still get to McDonald's and get a double quarter pounder though.

@@prollins6443 it was soo good. I hated the sauce. Mostly cssue I had to smell it all day when I worked back there. What they did was cook several and then put them in a little heated pot of sauce where they would sit until someone ordered a mcrib. Imo that's only one step above gasststion food. :/

McDonald's puts seasonings on their burger patties? Seriously? I would possibly enjoy a McDonald's Patty that had some salt and pepper on it. I can never taste anything like that!
Prior to my retirement when I lived in the U.S. I only ordered from McDonalds, Chicken Nuggets or Filet O Fish or the MC RIB. It they didn't have at least one of those. I went somewhere else.

@@FerociousSniper our story begins as all good stories do with hubris... in 1975 ronald mcdonald met with a South american tribe deep within the amazon rainforest who refused to sell their land for pasture. They told him of a devil in the jungle, a beast with eyes like fire and skin like steel. Believing this to be just superstition the clown presured them into a deal and unwittingly purchessed the breeding grouds of the deadliest predator on six legs, the great Neoptera Gargantua. Known to science as the neoptarin. Of the 10 men sent to flush out the beasts only 3 returned of the 3 only 2 actually saw the beast but just 1 managed to kill one. Ronald found himself looking over the mangled corpse of something not quite a mantis and not quite a monster its golden skin accented with purple stripes. Fearing the legends were true they decided to burn thd body and speak of it to no one... and thats when the real discovery was made. We now know that during mating the females eat the males and if she dosnt like the flavour, the show is over. Consequently only the tastiest neopterans pass on their genes. The smell of the cooking bug overwhelmed the expedition crew and the McRib was born. Now only ronald himself hunts the beast, not only addicted to the meat but the thrill of the hunt, when asked he told BBC horizon "do you know what a neopteran is? Its honest and pure and if i die hunting one ill know i was bested but something beautiful. They say only the brave hunt the neopteran but only a fool would hunt them alone... that is why they call him the clown.
I saw a shirt last year that said "The McRib is BACK! (actually it's heart, tongue and butthole but who cares!)". That made me both happy and sad....damn it...I want a McRib now.
The last time the McRIb came out in 2012 I was so disappointed to find the sauce was changed. Initially I thought it was just the location I went to had screwed up and used regular BBQ sauce instead of the tangy stuff I remember from the 90's that made it so addictive. Turns out they were all doing it. Hope they get it right this time.
Well.. yeah. I don't think anyone who eats at McDonald's is really eating there for quality so much as they're eating there for convenience and price. If you don't want to cook, want to eat for a few bucks and probably don't want to have to drive too far, McDonald's is probably going to be your best bet. At that point "it got me full without poisoning me" is pretty much all the quality required.

In Germany the McRib is available throughout the whole year, not just at special times. The Germans always thought they were superior, guess they were right.
"Superior," only if being willing to eat the garbage nobody else will makes one supoerior. Apparently, the reputation of honeland Deutsche being into eating feces is true? Because he failed to mention it also has the face, genitals, internal reproductive organs, and a lot of "chitterlings" in it.

@@injunsun So you're proud of killing millions of animals only to throw away most of their meat?

By being squeamish about offal you are only restricting yourself, you aren't "better".
I can tell you why without even watching this video, as someone who worked at McDonalds in my youth: It sells like gangbusters for about a month, then people remember they aren't very good and stop buying them. After a few weeks they only sell 3 or 4 a day.
You can find the "Mc Rib" meat in the frozen meat (?) Section of many groceries in the Midwestern US year around. It is the identical preformed rib shaped mystery meat that you find at Mc Donalds only thing missing is the bbq sauce to dip it in and the steak bun to put it on with chopped onions in it.
Basically in a nutshell Mcdonalds is profiting off the fact that random rewards provoke a higher response in humans, and thus they can profit more off of randomly introducing the mcrib. And the randomness of the release is also affected by pork prices, and other factors.
They lost customers when the customers found they can buy the meat separately in frozen dinners (and more cheaply, even considering the additional cost of buns and toppings)
I grew up in Natick (Nayt-ik) and have actually toured that Army lab on a school field trip. We were only allowed to see the metal shop, food processing facility, and parachute test wind tunnel. All wicked cool!! However, the field yogurt they had us sample gave us all the shits. I had no idea that the, dare I say, technology behind the McRibs origins was from my hometown... Gives a whole new meaning to all those McRibs I've eaten at Natick McDonald's...
Yesss omg that was so good! When I worked at McDonalds I would open at 4:00am on the weekends, and so my "lunch" break would be early in the day and I would always get that sandwich! I had the whole order planned out to hit exactly what my crew meal limit was lol. That and my lunch order for non-opening days which was the southwest salad and some other stuff. The quarter pounder deluxe or whatever it was called was also pretty good while it lasted.
Probably armadillo.... Shot and de-gutted back behind the McDonalds while digging through the trash, then brought inside, cooked, doused in BBQ sauce, slapped on a hoagie bun and served to the public! 😂🤣
Let's run the numbers: The McRib was announced on October 30th, 2020 to return on December 2nd, 2020. According to SeekingAlpha charts, the $MCD stock price was $213 at close on 10/30. On December 2nd, it was $201.86. Current share price is $213.65. If you bought on October 30, 2020 when the announcement was made public, your return would be $0.65, or 0.3%. The S&P's return in the same timeframe is 16.45%. Thanks for the "pro" tip, but I'd rather listen to amateurs.
@@racewiththefalcons1 HEY HEY HEY while you're righteous in your schooling, a non investor casually making a comment on stock prices is TOO EASY a comment to correct! lol.
Yeah, I've noticed Subway, DelTaco, and other fast food restaurants offering pork based items around the same time in the past and wondered the same thing.
@coyote smile Absolutely. Pork products like bacon, sausage, and ham, which almost everybody likes and are American breakfast staples are offered all the time. But when you're dealing with the massive volume of fast food restaurants and a meat that isn't as popular on a day to day basis outside of those few favorites, it may require a more substantial difference in price to warrant an enormous purchase in order to maximize profits, which are diminished if you can't move what you sell. McRib would have a steady following if it were offered every day, but would it have the mass appeal of chicken and burgers? Probably not. So every fraction of a penny saved adds up on such a large scale. Create demand and buy when the price drops below whatever set figure your bean counters have determined would make you the most money. I wonder if there's some spike in the number of hogs slaughtered in connection to the increased consumption of ham around Christmas and Easter? The demand for ham will see an increase, whereas shoulders might be in lower demand to the average consumer, which is why you see Del Taco's Carnitas and Subway's Pulled Pork. This would also make whatever scraps that go into the McRib even cheaper.
Today I found out that there enough people who don't know that "market forces" answers most TIFO questions that a 15 minute video can be made to answer "market forces".
Thing about fast food promo items like the McRib is, they're run on a schedule during certain times of the year. Like how Wendy's will always have their fish sandwich during Lent as an example. So, don't freak out when they say "sorry, we don't have (x item) any more". Just be patient, wait, it will be back within a year.
7:15 I wonder which of those goals covers reducing the amount of patty in cheeseburgers by half, in addition the the steady price growth over the years.
I've never been able to try the McRib, due to it disappearing so fast, so I came here to learn about it, but I walked away with a PHD in Economics, Food Logistics, French Cuisine, and Military Preparations, along with Amercan AND German history.
I remember eating one once it was certainly not ribs or barbecue or something that I could even describe until I heard “restructured meat product” this describes the Mc rib perfectly
There are two places that still sell the McPizza, one in ohio, the other in Kentucky, and just a stone's throw away from each other across the Big River too.
Do people mispronouncing words really annoy people that much, like he’s not gonna re-record the video because you pronounced something different from him
Ironically, I STILL haven’t tried one. Every time I see it on a McDonald’s sign, I have a little thought bubble in my head, “Maybe I should try it this time?” and then immediately change my mind.
5:55 Oh, how I long for the days down South when we would all gather 'round the table on Sunday at Grammy's house for some restructured meat product. Mmm mmmm!
It's seasonal now, comes around Thanksgiving and leaves around New Years. They can't do it all year because sales Widely vary when they do bring it back. When I worked there I remember some years we couldn't stop selling them and some years we couldn't sell any. They changed up the sauce and how the meat tastes now to, arguably not as good anymore.

Just like their hamburgers are going to disappoint you if you're hoping for a top grade hamburger off the backyard grill. If you want an authentic pulled pork sandwich then you shouldn't go to McDonald's for it. Comparing the McRib to that is like complaining that a Volkswagon Beetle doesn't go as fast as a Ferrari. It's like, no duh.

I remember when McRibs first came out. There was a lot of fanfare beforehand, and I couldn't wait to try one. But when I finally got the chance, I realized after just a couple of bites that the thing tasted awful. I haven't had one since.
"Why Is the McRib Only Offered Occasionally and Why so Randomly?" Isn't that obvious? People want more what they can't have.
Yeah, you could probably make a good buck making a 5 second video about it .......
Depends on the country.
Overhere they sell temporarly special burgers normaly sold only in other countries.
If that burger is liked its often sold out early.
Once i have seen a fight between customers break out because he bought the last burger.
Also they make special burgers who are designed for that market.
I get the concept, but I still disagree on the execution. I grew up in the UK...the last time I saw a McRib in the UK was many many years ago, possibly not even this century and it was super popular at that time. Now I live in China, where pork is cheap and indeed the favorite meat. No attempt to launch the McRib here. Finally, note that the McRib is very popular in Germany even while always being on the menu. I really don't think they're playing this game optimally.
Yes... people are stupid.
The McRib is absolutely hideous and disgusting. Horrible tasting in my opinion. I took a bite of a McRib years ago and spit it out. Could not even get it down. And I was not even into home BBQ goodness at that time.
Smoke some 'real' ribs authentic and pull some of that great tasting BBQ meat off the bone and put it on a quality bun. Now that is a proper rib meat sandwich! Yum

I upvoted immediately when you gave a proper definition of "barbecue". So many people confuse grilling (direct heat) with barbecue
There is no such thing as direct, nor indirect heat therefore the difference between barbecue and grilling can't be defined as such. If there were a definitive difference it would revolve around temperature over time, not made up terms and marketing hoopla.
I can’t believe I watched a documentary on a fast food sandwich... and loved it. Now you just need to do these irregularly, but always have them available in Germany. 😋
Thank you, Simon, for defining “barbecue” CORRECTLY!
“People not from the South
Think barbecue means cookout
And that’s something they’re wrong about
Barbecue is not a verb, and barbecue is not a grill! Barbecue is meat prepared in a very special way, depending on where you go!”

I'm not from the south and I knew that (from near KC)
Not sure he actually defined it properly. "barbecue" comes from the french expression "de la barbe au cul" from the "beard to ass" in a figurative way of how an animal would be staked and cooked over a fire.
Nobody thinks barbecue only means cookout. Its just developed many meanings
I'm from North Carolina, son... you can't BS me on propper 'cue.

The word Barbaque…BBQ… however you want to spell it is from french when they stick a pole through the pig from the Barb (beard) A (to) Cul (ass) barb-a-cul - the fashion of making, cooking, and eating BBQ is of course much older and spread around the world

@@thenetherone1597 what is a neoptarin?
@@FerociousSniper our story begins as all good stories do with hubris...
in 1975 ronald mcdonald met with a South american tribe deep within the amazon rainforest who refused to sell their land for pasture.
They told him of a devil in the jungle, a beast with eyes like fire and skin like steel.
Believing this to be just superstition the clown presured them into a deal and unwittingly purchessed the breeding grouds of the deadliest predator on six legs, the great Neoptera Gargantua. Known to science as the neoptarin.
Of the 10 men sent to flush out the beasts only 3 returned of the 3 only 2 actually saw the beast but just 1 managed to kill one.
Ronald found himself looking over the mangled corpse of something not quite a mantis and not quite a monster its golden skin accented with purple stripes. Fearing the legends were true they decided to burn thd body and speak of it to no one... and thats when the real discovery was made.
We now know that during mating the females eat the males and if she dosnt like the flavour, the show is over. Consequently only the tastiest neopterans pass on their genes.
The smell of the cooking bug overwhelmed the expedition crew and the McRib was born.
Now only ronald himself hunts the beast, not only addicted to the meat but the thrill of the hunt, when asked he told BBC horizon "do you know what a neopteran is? Its honest and pure and if i die hunting one ill know i was bested but something beautiful.
They say only the brave hunt the neopteran but only a fool would hunt them alone... that is why they call him the clown.
You can buy the exact same “ribs” in TV dinners, and there’s also bags of them like nuggets in some freezer sections.

Turns out they were all doing it. Hope they get it right this time.
Notice "product quality" was last in the mission statement.
Salt is 1st, no doubt.
tbh... i wondered it was there at all.
Well.. yeah. I don't think anyone who eats at McDonald's is really eating there for quality so much as they're eating there for convenience and price. If you don't want to cook, want to eat for a few bucks and probably don't want to have to drive too far, McDonald's is probably going to be your best bet. At that point "it got me full without poisoning me" is pretty much all the quality required.

I can tell you why without even watching this video, as someone who worked at McDonalds in my youth: It sells like gangbusters for about a month, then people remember they aren't very good and stop buying them. After a few weeks they only sell 3 or 4 a day.
You can find the "Mc Rib" meat in the frozen meat (?) Section of many groceries in the Midwestern US year around. It is the identical preformed rib shaped mystery meat that you find at Mc Donalds only thing missing is the bbq sauce to dip it in and the steak bun to put it on with chopped onions in it.
I still have my Flintstones glass cups! They are truly really good.
What's weird is that I learned most of this stuff about military grade meat products from The Simpsons via the Krusty Burger.
What keeps bringing me back to McDonalds is their unique sweet-n-sour sauce that I got hooked on as a kid. Thankfully that's never gone away.
their BBQ sauce is beyond reproach
I like their buffalo
Like a crack addiction,
Hot mustard.
Their sweet & sour sauce is definitely the best thing about McDonald's. Period.
Basically in a nutshell Mcdonalds is profiting off the fact that random rewards provoke a higher response in humans, and thus they can profit more off of randomly introducing the mcrib. And the randomness of the release is also affected by pork prices, and other factors.
The pork prices made sense to me, easier to find cheap beef, than pork
They lost customers when the customers found they can buy the meat separately in frozen dinners (and more cheaply, even considering the additional cost of buns and toppings)

Let's run the numbers: The McRib was announced on October 30th, 2020 to return on December 2nd, 2020. According to SeekingAlpha charts, the $MCD stock price was $213 at close on 10/30. On December 2nd, it was $201.86. Current share price is $213.65. If you bought on October 30, 2020 when the announcement was made public, your return would be $0.65, or 0.3%.

"The McRib is a food"

That or pork prices.
Yeah, I've noticed Subway, DelTaco, and other fast food restaurants offering pork based items around the same time in the past and wondered the same thing.
@coyote smile Absolutely. Pork products like bacon, sausage, and ham, which almost everybody likes and are American breakfast staples are offered all the time. But when you're dealing with the massive volume of fast food restaurants and a meat that isn't as popular on a day to day basis outside of those few favorites, it may require a more substantial difference in price to warrant an enormous purchase in order to maximize profits, which are diminished if you can't move what you sell.
McRib would have a steady following if it were offered every day, but would it have the mass appeal of chicken and burgers? Probably not. So every fraction of a penny saved adds up on such a large scale. Create demand and buy when the price drops below whatever set figure your bean counters have determined would make you the most money.
I wonder if there's some spike in the number of hogs slaughtered in connection to the increased consumption of ham around Christmas and Easter? The demand for ham will see an increase, whereas shoulders might be in lower demand to the average consumer, which is why you see Del Taco's Carnitas and Subway's Pulled Pork. This would also make whatever scraps that go into the McRib even cheaper.
True. Delis for example have driven the noble and majestic herds of Black and Red Pastrami to the brink of extinction! ;)
I had a feeling that it had to do with buying up ingredients when the market was down, but I did not realize all of the other details. Good video!
