TERIYAKI

Wingstop

Discontinued: 2018

Teriyaki was a sweet soy glaze with zero heat. Wingstop quietly discontinued the fast food item in 2018, surprising fans who’d ordered it for years. You can still find the flavor in Singapore and Indonesia locations.

CAROLINA GOLD BBQ

Wingstop

Discontinued: Unknown

Carolina Gold BBQ used the South’s mustard-based sauce. Fans begged Wingstop to make it permanent, but the chain never did. It remained a limited-time flavor only.

LEMON GARLIC

Wingstop

Discontinued: Unknown

Lemon Garlic mixed with buttery Garlic Parmesan and tangy Lemon Pepper. Food critics once ranked Wingstop’s best flavor. Then it vanished without explanation.

SMOKE 9

Wingstop

Discontinued: 2016

Smoke 9 took nine tries to perfect, which gave it its name. The mesquite dry rub formed a crust instead of a sticky coating, with smoky garlic and hints of citrus.

BRAZILIAN CITRUS PEPPER

Wingstop

Discontinued: 2017

Brazilian Citrus Pepper balanced fiery piri-piri peppers with citrus sweetness. Wingstop’s marketing chief called it their most successful test flavor ever. It disappeared from US menus but stayed in the UK.

HARISSA LEMON PEPPER

Wingstop

Discontinued: 2019

Harissa Lemon Pepper added North African harissa paste to classic Lemon Pepper. Critics said the harissa buried the lemon pepper taste without adding much flavor or heat.

ANCHO HONEY GLAZE

Wingstop

Discontinued: 2019

Ancho Honey Glaze launched with Harissa Lemon Pepper as a sweet-spicy option. It mixed smoky ancho chilies with honey for a bold taste that lasted one limited run.

ORANGE SZECHUAN

Wingstop

Discontinued: 2021

Orange Szechuan combined Szechuan peppers, mandarin oranges, and soy sauce based on customer requests. Reviewers called it thick, sweet like molasses, and too salty. One suggested “Almost Teriyaki” as a better name.

SERRANO PEPPER GLAZE

Wingstop

Discontinued: Unknown

Serrano Pepper Glaze packed 10,000 to 23,000 Scoville units of heat with fresh citrus. Wingstop’s CEO praised it as a “daring flavor profile,” but it left menus quickly.

MAPLE SRIRACHA

Wingstop

Discontinued: 2025

Maple Sriracha mixed Thai sriracha heat with maple syrup sweetness. Inspired by hits like Mango Habanero and Hot Honey Rub, it got mixed reviews and disappeared after its limited run.

SWEET CHILI GLAZE

Wingstop

Discontinued: 2025

Sweet Chili Glaze was Wingstop’s first international flavor, developed in Thailand and tested in Singapore. It borrowed from Chinese hoisin, Korean chili paste, and Vietnamese sweet chili, topped with sesame seeds.

LATTO’S LEMON HERB REMIX

Wingstop

Discontinued: 2023

Latto’s Lemon Herb Remix came from Wingstop’s partnership with the rapper. The custom flavor showed how the chain uses celebrity collaborations to create buzz and tie flavors to pop culture.

“4/20” SAUCE

Wingstop

Discontinued: 2022

The “4/20” Sauce targeted the youth with hemp seeds, terpenes, strawberry, and cayenne. It had no THC but was designed to “taste like 4/20” and capitalize on the munchies appeal.

BAYOU BBQ

Wingstop

Discontinued: 2019

Bayou BBQ mixed Hickory Smoked BBQ with Cajun seasoning. Part of Wingstop’s remix series, it responded to fans sharing flavor combinations on social media during the “return the flavor” campaign.

HOT LEMON

Wingstop

Discontinued: 2019

Hot Lemon blended Original Hot sauce with Lemon Pepper seasoning. This remix appeared when Wingstop tested fan-requested combinations, giving spice lovers a citrus twist on buffalo wings.
