How To Make copycat mcdonald's mcrib sandwich
-
1Chop pork butt into tiny pieces, place in food processor; pulse until it resembles ground pork (see notes). Add in spices. NOTES: 1. It'll be easier if you ask your butcher to place the pork butt in their grinder, so you'll save this step. Or... 2. You could definitely use ground pork to make these. I might recommend adding in some processed bacon to up the fat content a bit if you do use ground pork though.
-
2Make oblong patties (about 5 1/2 oz). It’s okay if they are pretty thin, they will shrink up as they cook. (I went ahead and made all of my patties and just sat them on wax paper until I could cook them).
-
3Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
-
4Just sear each patty in a hot pan over medium-high heat for about 3 - 4 minutes per side. This should almost completely cook the patties because they are so thin.
-
5Add all patties to oven safe dish & pour BBQ sauce evenly over patties. NOTE: If you have a really thick BBQ sauce, I recommend adding about 1/2 cup of water to it to thin it out a bit. It’ll thicken up again as it bakes.
-
6Bake them 25 - 30 minutes. This will completely infuse the patties with that delicious BBQ flavor.
-
7As far as the bun goes, you can toast it or leave it soft. It’s good either way. Pile a patty on the bun with some extra BBQ sauce and then top with onions & pickles.
-
8I kept the exact same toppings as the original: onions and pickles. I sliced my onions pretty thin though and use way more than two pickles.
-
9NOTE: These patties actually freeze really well. This means that you could double the recipe & have great sandwiches for a long time. Make sure they are completely cool & then putting each patty individually in a small plastic bag with a few spoonfuls of extra sauce. Then I put all of those small bags in a large freezer safe bag. When you want a sandwich, just cut the plastic off the patty & microwave it for about 2 minutes. Slap it on a bun with some extra BBQ sauce, onions & pickles & you’re all set. The re-heated version was just as good as on day one.
