Popeyes and Hot Ones Present Two New Spicy Menu Items
A collaborative initiative has been launched between the quick-service restaurant chain Popeyes and the digital media series Hot Ones, resulting in a temporary menu featuring two new spicy items.
The Popeyes x Hot Ones menu includes the Smokin' Rojo Sandwich (Medium) and the Darin' Dab Ghost Wings (Hot). The first offering is a chicken sandwich that incorporates a medium-heat sauce from the show, while the second option boasts bone-in wings coated in a ghost pepper seasoning, accompanied by a signature dipping ranch.
To promote the release of this spicy menu, both items are featured on an episode of the Hot Ones show, marking the first instance of a quick-service restaurant's wings being presented in that format. The menu is available for a limited duration at Canadian locations and through delivery services.
