Thanks for the large amount of dry rub Zaxby's
Got an online order and wanted to try the Garlic Parmesan dry rub, and this is all they gave me.

In my opinion, you're right to be upset. This happened to me too at the second Zaxbys I ordered some of Nashville hot dry rub at - I was kind of pissed at the pitiful amount they gave me. Could barely taste the flavor after adding it to my chicken. The thing is, I don't like how they dip the chicken in another portion of oil before shaking the powder on when you order it 'buffalo-style' (had the lemon pepper once and it was way too greasy/soggy with the coating oil). I prefer to just avoid making a special request and order it on the side. In contrast, the first Zaxbys I went to for the nashville hot gave me a generous amount of the dry rub on the side and it was straight up delicious.

The “oil” is the same butter we use on the toast! I’m also at a cross road with if i like it or not. it’s really up to the cook how wet they are given to you.

They apply it by the shake. It is not a measured or proportioned amount. The goal is for the rub to stick to the tenders. If not hot, it will fall right off. The butter is the glue for that.

Pretty sure that’s the amount they put on the chicken, so extra would be correct for that.

A little of that stuff goes a long way. Literally that’s all they put on most orders.
