Dave's Hot Chicken, the cult-favorite brand celebrated for its craveable hot chicken, is launching the Dave's Big Trio on May 19, 2026. This new meal combines three fan favorites into one customizable and abundant offering, priced at $17.99.
What's in the Dave's Big Trio?
The Dave's Big Trio includes six Dave's Bites, four Mini Sliders, two pieces of Hot Mozz, and three dipping sauces (choice of Ranch or Reaper Ranch). Designed for sharing or solo indulgence, the meal allows guests to build their own experience with a variety of textures and flavors.
A Return of Mini Sliders
The Mini Sliders make a highly anticipated return as part of this trio. Previously available only temporarily, they are now back alongside the popular Hot Mozz, which had recently sold out. The combination aims to satisfy multiple cravings in one order.
Jim Bitticks, CEO of Dave's Hot Chicken, stated: 'Dave's Big Trio is all about giving our guests the ultimate Dave's experience in one meal. Our fans love our Bites, Mini Sliders, and Hot Mozz, so bringing them together in a customizable, abundant, and flavorful way was a no-brainer. It's big, it's craveable, and it's unmistakably Dave's.'
About Dave's Hot Chicken
Founded in 2017 by childhood friends Chef Dave Kopushyan, Arman Oganesyan, and Tommy Rubenyan, Dave's Hot Chicken started with a $900 investment in a parking lot, using portable fryers and folding tables. The brand quickly expanded, opening a brick-and-mortar location in East Hollywood with support from Tommy's brother, Gary. In 2019, a franchising deal with Wetzel's Pretzels co-founder Bill Phelps accelerated growth, with Drake also investing. Today, the company has sold rights to over 1,000 franchise locations across the U.S., Middle East, Europe, and Canada, with plans to open more than 150 locations this year. The brand's mission, inspired by an early Eater LA blog, is to 'blow their minds.'
