## Story

“Fried Pickles are a Southern staple that’s having a bit of a moment,” said Stephanie Gamble, vice president of menu innovation at Zaxby’s. “Our customers have always loved Zaxby’s cornmeal-dusted crispy version paired with our creamy, cool ranch sauce. It’s the perfect summer snack, and now we’ll have it all year round.”

Lightly dusted in a cornmeal batter, the fried pickles are made from fresh, crinkle-cut thin slices of dill pickles and fried to golden brown perfection. Available as a shareable, they're served with a ranch sauce that is a blend of fresh buttermilk and herbs.

Zaxby’s also recently added the Signature Club Sandwich to its lineup. Zaxby’s take on the traditional club features its award-winning Signature Sandwich plus two slices of bacon and American Cheese with a choice of Zax sauce or Spicy Zax sauce. Due to popular demand, Zaxby’s made the original Signature Club Sandwich a permanent menu item as well.

Fried Pickles are available at participating restaurants. Prices may vary by location.
