Looks like things are spicing up at Wingstop with their latest menu addition to celebrate 4/20. They’re bringing back the Wingstop Hot Box from April 18 to April 21, 2024. But this isn’t just any old Hot Box. This will also serve as the debut for their brand new T.H.C (The Hot Chili) Rub which promises to bring a spicy kick. We see what you did there, Wingstop 👀
In this box, you have the option to pick what’s included. You’ll have your choice of either their signature chicken sandwich, 8-piece chicken wings (bone-in or boneless), or 3-piece chicken tenders, all seasoned with their fiery T.H.C. Rub. It’s chock full of chili peppers and spices so you better make sure you can handle it. With all these heat, you’ll need something to cool things off. That’s why the Wingstop Hot Box will also include their classic ranch dressing.
But wait, there’s more. The Wingstop Hot Box will also include seasoned fries and a 20-ounce drink. It’s practically a complete meal! Wingstop is the gift that won’t stop giving.
Interested? I bet you are. You can order the limited-time Wingstop Hot Box on their website or straight from the Wingstop app. But be sure to get yours soon since this is only available for a limited time so be sure to not miss out. And just to clear any confusion, the T.H.C (The Hot Chili) Rub is just a name and in no way contains any c*nn*bis, THC, or related substances.
From One Location to a Global Sensation: The Wingstop Story
When you think about flavorful wings, it’s impossible not to think about Wingstop. First began in 1994 in Garland, Texas, this successful fast food chain started out as a small buffalo-style chicken wing restaurant. Their dedication to providing us with the most innovatively seasoned wings and a side of nostalgia helped them stand out from the crowd. With over a thousand locations globally, Wingstop has successfully made its mark on the world of fast casual dining.

By 1997, Wingstop began franchising, leading to rapid expansion across the United States. Today, Wingstop has become a global sensation, with over 1,900 locations in various countries, including the United States, Mexico, Colombia, Panama, Singapore, and the United Arab Emirates. The company’s commitment to providing delicious and convenient wing options has made it a favorite among wing enthusiasts worldwide.
Wingstop Turns Up the Heat with the 4/20 Hot Box
The Wingstop Hot Box isn’t just another regular offering from the chain. It’s a seasonal sensation that taps into the playful spirit of 4/20 — a date known for its association with the culture, although this product has no actual connection. Its name, T.H.C. (The Hot Chili) Rub, is a clever nod that ties into the occasion while making it clear that this rub is all about heat from chili peppers and spices.
From The Club
4/20 is a date forever ingrained in popular culture. It’s a fun time that lets people be free and enjoy the legal use of certain recreational substances. Of course, fast food chains and brands would join in on the fun with 4/20 themed limited-time menu items. Wingstop’s T.H.C. (The Hot Chili) Rub sounds like a fun and delicious way to celebrate the date. I’m lovin’ the wordplay Wingstop.
