Chili’s Grill & Bar is bringing back its viral Nashville Hot Mozz costume with a new twist. The two person MozzMates design returns on October 1 for $75, exclusively at welcometochilis.com starting at 11 a.m. ET while supplies last. The revival follows last year’s sellout debut and taps the ongoing TikTok obsession with Chili’s Fried Mozz, a Triple Dipper staple that helped drive 41 million Triple Dippers in the last fiscal year.
This season, Chili’s is teaming with reality star JaNa Craig to add a competitive edge. Through September 30, fans can post an Instagram or TikTok video using #ChilisMozzMates explaining why they’d be the perfect pair for JaNa. The winning entry earns a real Chili’s date, with full rules available at chilis.com.
“When we saw epic cheese pulls take over TikTok last spring we jumped on that moment, and the momentum hasn’t slowed,” said Jesse Johnson, Chili’s Vice President of Marketing. “The MozzMates costume was a fan-favorite last year, and we’re excited to give more fans the chance to not only pull the cheese … but be the cheese this Halloween.”
Rounding out spooky season, Chili’s is bringing back its Witches Brew Marg as October’s $6 Marg of the Month, after serving more than one million last year.
