Zaxby’s is expanding its menu with a permanent new dry rubs lineup featuring three bold flavors, along with a limited-time Peaches & Cream Milkshake. Available starting February 23, 2026, the new dry rub options include Garlic Parmesan, Nashville Hot, and the fan-favorite Lemon Pepper, giving guests more ways to customize their Chicken Fingerz, wings, and fries at Zaxby’s locations nationwide.
What Are the New Zaxby’s Dry Rub Flavors for 2026
Following the introduction of Lemon Pepper, which became Zaxby’s most successful limited-time offering in 35 years, the brand is making dry rubs a permanent menu fixture with three flavor options. Each dry rub brings a distinct taste profile to classic Zaxby’s menu items.
- Garlic Parmesan: A classic savory option that combines garlic, herbs, and aged parmesan flavor
- Nashville Hot: A spicy, boundary-pushing flavor featuring staple Nashville cayenne heat, brown sugar, and honey
- Lemon Pepper: A bold blend of zesty lemon, cracked black pepper, and a rich buttery finish
Which Zaxby’s Menu Items Come With Dry Rubs
The new dry rub flavors are available on several popular Zaxby’s meals, including the Wings & Things Meal, Chicken Finger Plate, and Traditional Wings Meal. Guests can choose to enjoy their Chicken Fingerz or wings with a dry rub on its own or pair it with any of Zaxby’s 12 signature sauces for dipping, dunking, or drizzling.
