The fast-food chained announced the Diablo Dare, which is available with either smoked brisket or crispy chicken. According to a press release, the sandwich is seasoned with a variety of spices, including ghost pepper.

Chief marketing officer at Arby’s Patrick Schwing said, "We Diablo Dare you to try this new sandwich. This is not a sandwich for the faint of heart. Everyone in QSR says they have a spicy option, but our research tells us that consumers are disappointed by fast food claims of spicy."

The sandwich includes ghost pepper jack cheese, fiery hot seasoning, fire-roasted jalapenos and Diablo BBQ sauce and is served on a red chipotle bun.

"We took that as a challenge by making sure all different types of spicy –the hot, the numbing, and the lingering are combined to make the Diablo Dare a true test of how much heat you can handle," Schwing continued. "Arby’s is setting a new standard of spice –when we say it, we mean it."
