Big Chicken is initiating a new limited-time menu program titled 'Big Dip Energy.' The campaign features a rotating selection of specialty sauces that go hand-in-hand with the QSR's chicken offerings.
Big Dip Energy will introduce a monthly sauce in participating locations nationwide. The inaugural sauce is named Atomic Ranch. It is designed to complement the restaurant's existing menu items — "from the crispy Dunks to fried cheese curds and the first-of-its-kind Shaq Snacks (crispy tenders stacked on garlic toast with bold toppings)."
Big Chicken's Big Dip Energy is directly associated with founder Shaquille O'Neal. Josh Halpern, CEO of Big Chicken, shares: "'Big Dip Energy' gives our fans the freedom to personalize their Big Chicken journey and eat what they truly crave." At its core, the campaign evokes favor customization, bold flavor exploration, and interactive dining.
