The collaboration features signature sauces from the show, and it's the first time that wings from a quick-service restaurant have been featured on Hot Ones.

Popeyes and Hot Ones have teamed up to make four new menu items:

• Sizzlin’ Sriracha Dippers (Mild): Pickled garlic sriracha-marinated chicken with ranch and a Hot Ones sriracha sachet.
• Smokin’ Rojo Sandwich (Medium): Crispy chicken topped with Hot Ones Los Calientes Rojo sauce and pickles.
• Darin’ Dab Ghost Wings (Hot): Bone-in or boneless wings with ghost pepper dry rub and Last Dab ranch dip.
• The Last Dab (Extremely Hot): The show’s hottest sauce available in a sachet.

Popeyes Chief Marketing Officer Bart LaCount said in a press release:

Partnering with Hot Ones was a natural fit. This menu is more than a product launch; it’s a cultural moment.

 

The new menu items are part of the Popeyes and Hot Ones collaboration bundle, which is available at participating restaurants for $16.99. Between September 22 and September 28, rewards members can additionally receive double points for their purchases.

Actress and singer Keke Palmer returned to tackle the collab lineup with the new Popeyes dishes in a special Hot Ones reunion episode.
