ATLANTA, Feb. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Zaxbys® is expanding its menu with the permanent addition of its NEW dry rubs lineup featuring Garlic Parmesan, Nashville Hot, and beloved Lemon Pepper. Available starting February 23, 2026, the lineup delivers bold, craveable flavor turning classic Zaxbys menu items into a full-on flavor performance.

Following the introduction of Lemon Pepper, Zaxbys most successful limited-time offering in 35 years, the brand is turning up the flavor once again with bold new Garlic Parmesan and Nashville Hot dry rubs. Known for its 12 signature sauces, the chicken chain is giving guests even more ways to make every bite worth savoring with a full lineup of craveable dry rubs. Flavor lovers, you're welcome.

Fans can enjoy their favorite Chicken Fingerz™ and wing meals including Zaxbys Wings & Things Meal, Chicken Finger Plate and Traditional Wings Meal, with a choice of three flavor-packed dry rubs:

  • NEW Garlic Parmesan: A classic savory option that combines garlic, herbs, and aged parmesan flavor.
  • NEW Nashville Hot: The spicy, boundary-pushing flavor that features the staple Nashville cayenne heat, brown sugar and honey.
  • Lemon Pepper: A bold blend of zesty lemon, cracked black pepper, and a rich buttery finish, giving fans the sharp and craveable punch they crave.

Flavor isn't meant to be one-size-fits-all. With the addition of Zaxbys Dry Rubs, guests can dip, dunk or drizzle their favorite Chicken Fingerz or wings with a signature Zaxbys sauce, or stick with crispy dry rub flavor on its own.

For Zax Rewardz members, Zaxbys is cookin' up even better news. Starting February 23, members can unlock the ultimate menu hack and add any dry rub to Zaxbys iconic crinkle fries for a limited time. Available exclusively in the Zaxbys app, online at zaxbys.com and third-party delivery platforms through April 27.

"After seeing Zaxbys fans' love for Lemon Pepper, -and their requests for additional dry rub flavors-we knew it was time to make dry rubs a permanent part of the menu," said Patrick Schwing, Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer, Zaxbys. By adding Nashville Hot and Garlic Parmesan, we're giving guests even more ways to enjoy their Zaxbys favorites, from wings to our famous Fingerz.

Zaxbys wouldn't leave fans high and dry without something sweet to top it all off. Delivering the taste of Georgia right to fans' cups, the Peaches & Cream Milkshake hits menus on February 23.
