Zaxbys is proud to unveil “Who’s Got the Sauce?”—our bold new brand campaign that celebrates individuality, flavor, and all the SAUCE (and Chicken Fingerz). The new campaign is anchored by actor and entrepreneur Omar Epps as the Sauce Boss. Part style guru, part life coach, and 100% sauce, the Sauce Boss is here to help Zaxby’s fans everywhere find their flavor—and own it. From soccer kids to super moms, he’s the hype man we didn’t know we needed, turning everyday moments into bold expressions of self.
