Buffalo Wild Wings Brings Back Limited Time Only Sauce Favorites Based on Twitter Votes


Buffalo Wild Wings® today announced that the B-Dubs® Sauce Lab is bringing back several popular "Limited Time Only" sauces, as voted on by fans. Starting today, Ghost Pepper and Bourbon Honey Mustard are once again featured in all 1,120 Buffalo Wild Wings restaurants, and for the first time, sold in special-edition Team Up for Kids® bottles to take home through November 1, while supplies last. For each bottle sold, $1 will be donated to Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) to support the Buffalo Wild Wings Team Up for Kids mission.

In May, fans voted on Twitter (News - Alert) using #BWWSauceVote, telling Buffalo Wild Wings which flavors should make a comeback. The contending sauces included: Sriracha Sizzle, Wicked Wasabi, Honey Ginger Kick, Big Easy Bourbon Honey Mustard, Classic Margarita, Ghost Pepper, Korean BBQ, Chipotle Cherry Sting, Smoldering Santa Fe and Buttery Maple.

"When Guests stop by Buffalo Wild Wings to enjoy their favorite limited time only sauces, they can join our efforts to help kids play team sports in communities across the country," said Mary Twinem, executive vice president and chief financial officer of Buffalo Wild Wings. "We are happy that our Guests can join our Team Up for Kids mission to bring youth sports into the lives of kids who need it most."

Now in its third year, Buffalo Wild Wings' Team Up for Kids mission and partnership with BGCA supports youth sports through ALL STARS grants for hundreds of flag or tackle football, cheer and basketball teams at Boys & Girls Clubs across the country. It also provides Team Up for Kids grants to support special Club projects such as sports field and facility renovations. In 2015, Buffalo Wild Wings' partnership is enabling more than 35,000 girls and boys to participate on flag and tackle football, cheer and basketball teams. Buffalo Wild Wings has committed to helping more than 100,000 kids play team sports by donating and raising more than $6 million for BGCA by 2017.
