When Is McDonald’s McRib Returning in 2024?
So, I grabbed one to try for myself as soon as it hit menus this week.
Here’s what I found.

The hugely anticipated double-decker chicken sandwich cost me $5.79 at McDonald’s in Des Plaines, Ill.
The look:Pretty neatly assembled and surprisingly close to McDonald’s promotional photos for the Chicken Big Mac.
The cheese was nice and melty.

The bun was shiny and not at all soggy.
The lettuce was green and fresh-looking.
Plus, the tempura chicken patties were golden brown, which I hoped would result in a crispy bite.
Overall, the Chicken Big Mac looked mighty enticing.
After that poor experience, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this long-awaited limited-time item.
The chicken patties had been cooked until perfectly crispy and the amount of Big Mac sauce was just right.
If you’re anything like me, you might just like it better than the original.
