TGI Friday’s is currently collaborating with Jamie Foxx. This collaboration features the use of Jamie Foxx’s BSB (Brown Sugar Bourbon) Flavored Whiskey added to TGI Friday’s own barbeque sauce. This BSB Flavored Whiskey barbeque sauce has currently been given its own menu slot with several dishes being highlighted with the use of the sauce, such as being used on ribs, sirloin steak, and wings. You can also have the sauce as an additional side sauce by asking for it, allowing you to use it with whatever menu items you please.
