In the last few weeks, football season has well and truly kicked off \u2013 and those food brands aren\u2019t missing a trick. We\u2019ve been seeing football-themed deals and offers arriving thick and fast, with the likes of Publix<\/a>, Wingstop<\/a>, and McDonald\u2019s<\/a> reviving old favorites, building collabs, and throwing out new flavors for the hungry masses to enjoy on game day. Let it never be said that there aren\u2019t options for football-related grub, because there\u2019s a lot going on right now.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a busy old time at Dairy Queen, too. DQ has recently announced its own back-to-football deal, and this one\u2019s pretty decent. I just hope you\u2019re in a dipping mood.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dairy Queen Chicken Strip Basket Deal<\/p>\n

Dairy Queen has announced its new Chicken Strip Basket Deal in honor of football season, as well as a new MVP Dip Lineup. The Chicken Strip Basket Deal gives customers four Original or FlameThrower Chicken Strips for $6.99, which come with fries, a drink, and your choice of dip from DQ\u2019s new selection. The chain has two fresh dips on offer here: its new Strip Dip, a creamy, tangy, black pepper-inflected affair, and its new Ghost Pepper Dip, which promises \u201cfiery, bold, smoky pepper heat\u201d (so sayeth its press release<\/a> on the matter). You can also go for its house-made Hidden Valley Ranch, if you prefer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dips have been big in fast food this year: KFC has been focusing pretty heavily on them<\/a>, and they\u2019re a canny way for chains to offer way more choice, in a kind of modular fashion, without overwhelming their customers with a load of options (they\u2019re also cost-effective, which helps). So far, the response to these new dips has been a little mixed: DQ\u2019s new Strip Dip is the clear winner, with a lot of people comparing it to Raising Cane\u2019s own signature sauce, while the Ghost Pepper Dip has been called a little underpowered. For my money, the real selling point here is the price: $6.99 may not be super cheap, but it\u2019s not bad for what feels like a fairly substantial meal.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Get It Now!<\/p>\n

Dairy Queen\u2019s Chicken Strip Basket Deal is on sale for a limited time, so get yourself down there before it\u2019s too late. The deal comes off the back of a typically brisk time for the chain: A few months ago, it announced that it was expanding to Puerto Rico<\/a>, and it\u2019s spent the summer churning out Lemonade Coolers (and did we like them? Reader, we did not<\/a>). \u2018Twas ever thus. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In the last few weeks, football season has well and truly kicked off \u2013 and those food brands…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":346315,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[9,24,63,122,124,123],"class_list":["post-346314","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-queens","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-queens","tag-queens-headlines","tag-queens-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346314","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=346314"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346314\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/346315"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=346314"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=346314"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=346314"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
