Zaxby’s is set to reintroduce its discontinued 'Insane Sauce' in a special, one-day-only Halloween promotion, taking place at select locations in Atlanta, Georgia, and Raleigh, North Carolina. As one of Zaxby’s most intensely flavored offerings, 'Insane Sauce' is crafted with "aged hot peppers, garlic, onions, and a carefully curated blend of spices," creating a distinct, fiery taste experience.
On October 31, Zaxby’s will transform the traditional Trick-or-Treat with a unique "Dip-or-Treat" drive-thru event at six participating locations. For guests arriving in Halloween costumes, Zaxby’s will "offer a complimentary 2 oz. cup of 'Insane Sauce,' provided while supplies last." Moreover, through this event, fans can once again enjoy Zaxby’s spiciest sauce in a lively, Halloween-themed setting, marking a memorable return for the 'Insane Sauce' in select markets.
