Buffalo Wild Wings Launches 2 New Sauces
Buffalo Wild Wings has just announced the addition of two new sauces to their lineup. According to Tristan Meline, Chief Marketing Officer at Buffalo Wild Wings. “Buffalo Wild Wings is the ultimate destination for sauces, and we’re constantly innovating our menu to bring new flavors to our guests. Our new limited-edition General Tso’s and Sweet Chile Lime sauces embody the perfect fusion of sweet, spicy, and savory that’s perfect to enjoy throughout the summer.”

The Sweet Chile Lime features combines sweet, heat and a touch of acid. While the chile peppers are bold, they do not bring extreme spice. When combined with the sweetness of the honey and the brightness from the lime, the flavor hits highs and lows. Whether enjoyed in a wrap or on its own, it is another choice when a guest craves a spicier wing with a little nuance.
The General Tso’s features crushed red pepper and Chile de árbol for “the perfect blend of sweet, sticky and spicy flavors they know and love.” While Asian Zing has always been a favorite, this new sauce appears to be inspired by the classic dish.
Both new limited-edition sauces can be found at Buffalo Wild Wings locations nationwide for a limited time.
