Arlington, Texas – As the Dallas Cowboys opened the 2026 NFL season with a win on Sept. 20, the stadium’s food‑court received a major upgrade. AT&T Stadium introduced a variety of new snack and sandwich options designed to satisfy hungry fans while also rolling out new wayfinding technology to help visitors navigate the massive venue.
Doritos‑Loaded Snacks Take Center Stage
The classic stadium nacho cart now offers three Doritos‑Loaded creations, each built around a different flavor theme. The Peri‑Peri Chicken version mixes house‑made peri‑peri chicken, peri cheese sauce, pico de gallo and a drizzle of garlic perinaise. The Texas BBQ option stays true to local tastes, layering house‑smoked beef brisket, nacho cheese, barbecue sauce, sweet‑and‑spicy pickles, coleslaw and green onion over Doritos. Finally, the Butter Chicken Doritos Loaded features house‑made butter chicken in a buttery sauce, a raita‑style vegetable mix of tomato, red onion, cucumber and cilantro, and spiced yogurt. All three are sold from Doritos‑Loaded carts near the upper 50‑yard lines in Sections 412 and 442.
More International Nachos from Tostitos Cantina
Fans seeking additional variety can head to the Tostitos Cantina in Section 423, where two new nacho dishes are available. The Peri‑Peri Chicken Nachos start with Tostitos tortilla chips topped with peri‑peri chicken, peri cheese sauce, garlic perinaise and fresh pico de gallo. The Island Jerk Nachos take a Caribbean twist, using thick‑cut Tostitos chips topped with house‑made jerk chicken, mango salsa, cilantro and lime crema. Both were developed by Frito‑Lay in partnership with the Legends Global at AT&T Stadium Food & Beverage team, and were previewed during the FIFA World Cup 2026 matches held at the stadium.
Hearty Sandwiches for a Texas‑Sized Appetite
For those who prefer a more substantial meal, the new Kraft BBQ DCQ sandwich combines a grilled jalapeño cheese sausage, Cowboys mac and cheese, chopped brisket, Kraft BBQ sauce and jalapeños on a hoagie roll. It is sold at the Smokehouse stands in Sections 412 and 442 as well as the Upper Bent Buckle locations in Sections 410 and 444. A second addition, the Kraft Buffalo Aioli Chicken Sandwich, features a crispy chicken breast, lettuce, tomato and Kraft Buffalo Aioli on a seeded bun, available at all four Crisp stands in Sections 218, 243, 409 and 439.
Technology and Community Initiatives
Beyond food, AT&T Stadium is rolling out new wayfinding technology to guide fans to seats, restrooms and concessions more efficiently on game day. The Cowboys also announced the expansion of the Blazing Trails employment program, which creates job opportunities for individuals with disabilities, and the return of the WE Over Me Farm, a campus‑based initiative that grows fresh produce for use in stadium menus. Additionally, a new Pepsi Local Restaurant Spotlight will showcase Dallas‑Fort Worth eateries on game days, further tying the stadium’s offerings to the regional food community.
With these enhancements, the Cowboys aim to make the game‑day experience more enjoyable for families and fans who value both great football and quality food. Whether you’re reaching for a spicy Doritos‑Loaded nacho or a hearty brisket hoagie, the stadium’s new menu promises something for every palate.
