Supposedly pork supply is an issue as well (or from what'd been explained to me.) Whenever the McRib comes back it eats up a large share of the pork supply chain. If it was a year round thing McDonalds would be facing sporadic shortages and since consistency is a McD's hallmark it doesn't fit the business profile.

To tell you the truth, it was really, really fun working there. All my friends worked there and it was just awesome. I became a Crew Trainer a year after I started working there. Loved working the grill, but drive thru was my thing. I'll give you a little idea of what the grill was like back then. I worked there when they started the Arch Deluxe. Love that burger. When I worked there McDonalds used what they called a timer on all their food. You would have to have an idea of what you would be selling during that certain time of day and be really good at it. So let's say it's a Saturday afternoon, and lunch is about to start in 15 minutes. So at about the 5 minute to go mark, you would set your fryers up for fries, nuggets, chicken and fish. You would get those going first because they take the longest. Then you would tell your cooks that I need a total of 16 hamburgers, cheese on 10 of those. They would start to create the burgers, then give them to the quer, hip name for microwaver, and you just wanted to melt the cheese. When they would be done, you would put them into the heating bin where they have been tagged to stay until taken for an order. And here comes the timer part. They had these 90 degree bent pieces of metal, one side had a black number, and one side had a red number. And each McDonalds grill area had a clock right above the warm bin that had red and black numbers on the outside of the clock numbers. So if you put all those sandwiches in at 1100am, they would get a Black 15 number behind the last sandwich in that row. If there were any sandwiches left after 11:15, then they would we wasted (thrown away in a separate garbage receptacle alloted for old food, which would be accounted for after every hour)

It says it is the last opportunity, so the Mc Rib is apparently being retired. I remember my first year at McDonald's, in 1966, as a sophomore in High School. 2 Burgers, fries and a drink..$.87. That's right EIGHTYSEVEN CENTS. Minimum wages was $1.25/hr back then and it increased to S1.65 while I was there. I also was there for a short time after I got out of the service, after returning from Viet Nam, in 1970. The Big Mac was just being introduced. I still love the Big Mac, but the patties are much smaller/thinner these days, and the fries are nothing like they were in the 60's & 70's. We made them from scratch back then. Not like the skinny frozen ones today. I started as a counter man...went to fries, and ended ups as a Grill Man! GREAT start to my work life. I will probably retire next year, after 55 years working. Three different careers...and enjoyed them all.

I can’t believe they are frozen. I figured they came straight from the butcher shop, into a smoker out back and out directly from the smoker to the bread.

The McRib is perhaps McDonald's most enigmatic and even controversial seasonal sandwich. Reactions to it are a bit extreme. It seems like most people either totally love it or hate it. In this regard, you can call me a "McRib extremist" because I love it and I always look forward to its return! I generally eat a very healthy diet, but will break from my usual routine whenever the McRib makes its appearance. I'm willing to work my daily meal plan around & work out harder that day to make that delicious rib-like sandwich fit! I love the McRib sandwich but I have to make sure I don't turn into a fatty from eating that tasty rib-shaped pork patty - Lol!

If you were on grill you did the cooking, your on assembly you are putting them together, buns you are just toasting away and various other tasks. The only time we had one person doing every task is around closing when someone who knew every aspect could cook, assemble and also start the cleaning all at the same time was there.
