Limited Time Offering at Zaxbys That We Miss
Zaxbys is always caught in the scene with their limited-time releases, but we’re not complaining, tho! We’re just keeping our fingers crossed for our limited-time favorites to make it in their permanent menu. With all that being said, here are some of our Zaxbys favorites that we miss the most.
Mr. Beast Collaboration Meal Box
Who could forget about Mr. Beast’s Zaxbys domination? Last summer, popular YouTuber Jimmy Donaldson, who is best known as Mr. Beast, collaborated with Zaxby’s for a meal box. Fans can enjoy some of Zaxby’s favorites included in a customized Feastables box with the following:

- Chicken Fingerz – 4 pieces
- Cheddar Bites
- Zaxby’s Texas Toast – 2 pieces
- Sauces – Zax Sauces and Ranch
- Feastables Milk Chocolate Bar
Southern Fried Shrimp with Zaxtail Sauce
Earlier this year, Zaxby dropped their Southern Fried Shrimp with Zaxtail Sauce, which marks their first time adding seafood to their menu. This left fans excited as the chicken stop will finally be serving fresh seafood selection. Will this be the start of seafood choices at Zaxbys? The Southern Fried Shrimp is coated with garlic and onion powder that is mixed with pepper and buttermilk. Each serving comes with your choice of Zaxtail Sauce.
Banana Pudding Jar Dessert
Some of the menu items in this list may not be available at Zaxby’s anymore, except for this creamy dessert. It was previously a test item on their Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina. It features layers of banana pudding with vanilla wafers and whipped cream on top. These rival the Chick-fil-a banana pudding 😅
Flavored Milkshakes
Who’s up for some milkshakes? Sadly, they’re not available anymore. But they were brought back to Zaxbys after seven years for a limited time only. This move was actually a team-up with Macon which is Georgia’s Milkshake Tourism back in the earlier months. Now, what’s worth celebrating for? After seven years, Zaxbys is once again unveiling four shake flavors: Chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry, and Birthday Cake. These flavored shakes were available at around 20 locations around the Macon area.
Arby’s New Tailgate Meal
If you’re a student, Football season also calls for the perfect game-day deal. With this, say hello to Arby’s new Tailgate Meal! It’s got an Arby’s Deluxe Burger, large-sized fries, and a large fountain drink. But wait, there’s more, as Arby’s is also adding a dessert that comes with the entire tailgate meal. As a bonus surprise, a Tailgate Turnover is added as a dessert. It features a pastry that is filled with cherry filling. The turnover even resembles a football with its decoration in white icing to resemble the white ties found in a football.
