Summer is almost here — and just like the rising temperatures, one of the surest signs of the season is the smoky, sweet aroma of barbecue. Schlotzsky’s is leaning into that summer feeling with the launch of a brand-new BBQ menu, available now at locations nationwide.
The limited-time offerings will be available all summer and include fresh additions like the Sweet Heat BBQ Chicken Sandwich and the Sweet Heat BBQ Chicken Salad. Making a triumphant return is a fan favorite: the BBQ Chicken & Jalapeño Pizza. Each item taps into Schlotzsky’s Texas roots with bold, sweet, and spicy flavors that capture the spirit of backyard grilling.
But it’s not just about the barbecue — summer isn’t complete without a cool, refreshing drink. Schlotzsky’s has that covered, too, permanently adding two new lemonades to its beverage lineup. Guests can now enjoy both classic and strawberry lemonade, crafted with Minute Maid, for a satisfying complement to any meal.
In true Western fashion, Schlotzsky’s is also offering a limited-time sweepstakes that brings the BBQ experience to life. Now through May 30, fans can enter at SchlotzskysCowboyCation.com by filling out their information or purchasing a BBQ menu item using their Schlotzsky’s account. One lucky winner and a guest will enjoy a three-day, two-night stay at the iconic Wagon Cowboy Palace by Leisure Time Properties in Texas — complete with plenty of Schlotzsky’s food.
Sure, National BBQ Day may have already passed, but it’s never too late to indulge in something this delicious — even more so with summer coming. I’m excited about the return of the BBQ Chicken & Jalapeño Pizza. That sweet-and-spicy combo hits just right.
So, as we near summer, grab these BBQ menu items and maybe a lemonade. I know I will be heading to a location near me to enjoy this.
