They seem to be out of McRib buns, but I was so happy to even get a McRib after seeing another McDonald's had run out and knowing that it's a limited time thing, that I didn't bust anyone's chops for doordash credit. They did use what seemed to be a quarter pounder bun which seemed both wider and shorter than the McRib, so I could take a bite of McRib sticking out one side, and a bite of the side of the bun for the first several bites until the last half or so of the McRib fit in the last half or so of the bun. In this case, I felt they were erring on the side of getting a McRib to me rather than saying 'no'. It was a bit of a gamble or act of trust on their part, and I got my McRib, so not taking any stars off for that.
I also appreciated that I had mostly drink in my cup instead of mostly ice as happens sometimes. There's an 'extra ice' checkbox that I never check, and I long for the 'no ice' checkbox, so if they put a small drink's worth of soda in a big cup full of ice, I WILL bust their chops for a doordash crredit on that so my drink will be delightfully full of soda instead of ice when I use my doordash credit to order from them again.
My large fry container wasn't super full, but was at least noticeably more than half full, so I didn't bust their chops for putting a small fry's worth of fries in a large fry thing like one of the McD's sometimes does. (Feels like a shrinkflation effort by one of the assistant managers, but the doordash credit is a little more than fair when it happens, so it doesn't happen too much.)
And the nuggets are always nice either fresh or reheated later, so the free nugget promo is always nice even if you can't eat everything all in one sitting.
Anyway, 5-star food or 5-star doordash credit and maybe just skip the 2-star bacon. Oh yeah, always check the 'no pickle' box for McRib. Pickle seems to just mess up the McRib while extra onions and/or barbecue sauce work nicely on it.

I ordered two large fries and they were both barely filled, not even a small fries worth
