Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Wing Boss Has Created a New Dr Pepper Barbecue Sauce

— August 3, 2021 — Lifestyle
Just in time for August, Wing Boss has debuted a new Dr Pepper Barbecue Sauce.

For those unfamiliar, Wing Boss is a delivery-only virtual concept brand that's owned by Dickey’s Barbecue Pit. This month, the brand has teamed up with Dr Pepper for the debut of a savory sauce infused with the signature soda. This new sauce has a sweet and smoky flavor profile with distinct notes of Dr Pepper. This unique combination is the perfect complement to the brand's boss-sized drums and flappers.

As if news of the new sauce weren't exciting enough, Wing Boss is also offering free delivery on all orders over $10. You can even score a free order of seasoned or Cajun fries with promo code FREEFRIES.
