Texas Independence Day! Dairy Queen Rolls Out $2 Hungr-Buster on March 2nd
In true Texas fashion, Dairy Queen in our great state is celebrating Texas Independence Day like only we can! In honor of March 2, 1836—the day the Texas Declaration of Independence was signed—DQ restaurants across Texas are rolling out an exclusive $2 Hungr-Buster deal through their app on the anniversary!
Here in Lubbock, where every Texan knows the value of a good meal and a strong sense of pride, this isn’t just a bargain; it’s a tribute to our heritage. The Hungr-Buster is a Texas-sized burger made with a quarter-pound grilled patty topped with crisp lettuce, ripe tomatoes, purple onions, tangy pickles, and a generous slather of bold yellow mustard. Lou Romanus, CEO of the Texas Dairy Queen Operators’ Council, summed it up:
“Texans are quite proud of their heritage and we are celebrating Texas Independence Day with our iconic Texas-sized burger.”
This app-exclusive offer is just one way DQ is saying thank you to loyal fans. For 78 years, DQ has been a beloved part of Texas communities, serving up not only great burgers but also timeless treats like their famous Blizzard! Since the first Texas location opened in 1947, generations of Texans have gathered at their local Dairy Queen, sharing fries and making memories.
But the celebration doesn’t stop at the Hungr-Buster. Fans can also indulge in other Texas favorites such as The Steak Finger Country Basket, Texas T-Brand Tacos, or a classic Dilly Bar. It’s all part of a larger effort to honor our Lone Star spirit and our rich history.
So grab your phone and download the DQ App today. Celebrate Texas Independence Day the Texas way—by savoring a $2 Hungr-Buster and enjoying a taste of tradition that’s as big and bold as Texas itself!
