Spicy Food News: Arby’s Spices Up Its Cheesesteaks, Chick-Fil-A Adds Spicy Sauce, and More

Arby’s Adds Spicy Cheesesteak and Spicy Chicken Cheesesteak

The cheesesteaks are back at Arby’s, both the beef and chicken versions, and this time around the chain is offering spicy versions. Here is the description from the website:

Spicy Angus Cheesesteak: Seasoned, thinly-shaved Angus steak with melted white American Cooper® cheese, caramelized onions, and spicy sauce on a toasted sesame seed sub roll. $10.39

Spicy Chicken Cheesesteak: Seasoned chicken with melted white American Cooper® cheese, caramelized onions, and spicy sauce on a toasted sesame seed sub roll. $8.89

Prices will vary by locations, and they also offer half-pound versions of each of these that nearly doubles that price. These will be returning to Limited-Time-Only-Ville at some point, so you will want to make a trip to the drive thru soon if you have a hankering for a spicy beef or chicken cheesesteak.

Chick-Fil-A Spices Up Its Sauce

The Chick-Fil-A Sauce will be getting a boost of heat with a new version coming to stores in November. Here is the description from the website:

Spicy Chick-fil-A Sauce: A bolder version of our classic dipping sauce with mustard notes and a smoky tang, balanced by subtle sweetness and infused with spicy peppers.

This will be available starting November 16th, and you can get it in 1 oz dipping cups or 8 oz bottles. It is not a limited time item, so it should stick around as along as it remains popular.

Whataburger Brings Some Heat for the Holidays

This Texas-based chain will be heating things up as the cold months approach with two new Bacon Blaze menu items. Here is the description from the press release:

Bacon Blaze Jalapeño Double: The Bacon Blaze lineup offers just the right amount of heat that never sacrifices flavor. The Bacon Blaze Jalapeño Double layers two fresh, 100% beef patties with creamy Jalapeño Ranch, jalapeño cream cheese, smoky bacon, sliced jalapeños and real aged cheddar cheese. Guests looking for a smaller bite can order it in a Jr. size.

Bacon Blaze Chicken: The new Bacon Blaze Chicken puts that same perfect kick on premium chicken, with Guests’ choice of grilled or Whatachick’n® on a toasted potato bun.

These are limited time items, but should stick around through the holiday months.

Zaxby’s Adds Spicy New Sauce

This is a limited time offering and will be available from November 2nd to January 18th, or while supplies last.
