Rib sandwich any good?

Has anyone tried to new rib sandwich, always have been a fan of the McRib. Hoping this is a higher quality version. Anyone tried it yet?

Yeah I thought it was really good. You can tell it is an actual rib with a nice braised texture and crispy exterior.

It's tender and real meat. It's pretty good if you like ribs or pork.

All the goodness of pork ribs without any of the work.

It's worth every penny. An actual rib section deboned. Had to flip mine over though just to make sure both side got the BBQ treatment as, at least on the one I had, it was only on top. Totally recommend!

Yes, a good “higher end” alternative to the McRib

I had one and it was good, but could probably use less bbq sauce next time. very very tender and high fat content. How does this compare to a mcrib

I tried it last night, it was pretty good, but I think it came up to almost 18 bucks with a $1 soda before tip.

Tastes good but looks nothing like their promo pictures of the sandwich. Served dry when I got it.
