Crispy Chicken Gets Attention.
Texas Pete® Gives Guests a Flavor to Come Back for.
Crispy chicken and wings have become go-to platforms for the bold flavors guests crave. Technomic’s 2026 Global Foodservice Trend Predictions call for more breaded chicken snacks, bold dips, and “crispy” texture callouts as restaurants double down on what works. Technomic also expects sauces and dips to become a bigger point of difference, from dip flights to sauce-and-crunch combinations.
That’s where Texas Pete® comes in. Its signature balance of aged peppers and vinegar delivers approachable heat with plenty of flavor, adding a Southern kick to crispy chicken without overpowering it.
Born in a Restaurant Kitchen in 1929.
Texas Pete® traces its roots to a North Carolina barbecue restaurant. Nearly a century later, that restaurant-born flavor is ready for everything from the dining room to the doorstep.
