The reimagined earworm celebrates Chili's fan-favorite Baby Back Ribs and puts a modern spin on one of the most well-known jingles — including a new verse, flute solo and more

DALLAS, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Chili's Grill & Bar is celebrating the recent updates made to its popular ribs with a new take on its most recognizable tune — the Baby Back Ribs jingle. Together with four-time Grammy® Award and Emmy® Award-winning artist and longtime Chili's superfan, Lizzo, the song gets a bold new take, co-written and co-produced by the artist, alongside a video that blends Chili's signature energy with Lizzo's unmistakable, upbeat sound.

&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;p&gt;The video shows Lizzo adding her own voice to the classic, including shot-for-shot references that call back to the original spot that first got &lt;i&gt;&quot;I want my baby back, baby back&hellip;&quot; &lt;/i&gt;stuck in everyone&#39;s heads. Things quickly get quintessentially-Lizzo, though, as the accomplished artist &lt;i&gt;and &lt;/i&gt;classically trained flautist busts out a flute custom designed to look like a Chili&#39;s Baby Back Rib. From there, Lizzo further infuses her distinctive style with an all-new verse that puts a spin on what&lt;i&gt; &quot;baby back, baby back&quot;&lt;/i&gt; can mean.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Alongside the remix, Lizzo also recorded an acapella rendition of the original, staying true to the classic everyone knows and loves, with the artist performing every part herself.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&quot;Weekends at Chili&#39;s were a huge part of my childhood and I&#39;ve stayed a fan &mdash; you may have even seen me dress up as a Fried Mozzarella cheese pull on Halloween &mdash; so when they reached out about collaborating, I couldn&#39;t say yes fast enough,&quot; said Lizzo. &quot;I don&#39;t think there&#39;s a more memorable jingle, so when putting my own spin on it, I really wanted to honor that history while also making it feel fun and very me.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chili&#39;s Baby Back Ribs have been a menu mainstay for decades and, like all great hits, they&#39;ve evolved over time. The brand&#39;s recently upgraded Baby Back Ribs are now available as meatier, full- or half-rack portions that give guests up to 50% more ribs, finished with a new caramelized barbecue sauce crust. Since hitting menus, Chili&#39;s is serving more ribs to guests &mdash; proving fans are more obsessed than ever.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&quot;When we refreshed our ribs, our goal was to give guests more of what they love without straying too far from where we started,&quot; said George Felix, Chili&#39;s Chief Marketing Officer. &quot;And with a jingle that has lived in pop culture for decades &mdash; in movies, on TV, and in people&#39;s heads &mdash; we knew the refresh had to do it justice. Lizzo nailed it by bringing something familiar and beloved into the moment with her signature creativity and energy.&quot;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Both versions of the jingle are now live on &lt;a href=&quot;https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4697121-1&amp;h=336813694&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DofuTVx6GfsM&amp;a=YouTube&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;YouTube&lt;/a&gt;, giving longtime fans and new audiences alike a new way to experience a song that&#39;s been stuck in America&#39;s head for decades.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Starting today, My Chili&#39;s rewards members can also enter an exclusive giveaway for a chance to win a limited-edition t-shirt signed by Lizzo and a Chili&#39;s gift card (&lt;a href=&quot;https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4697121-1&amp;h=3752601090&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fhi.chilis.com%2Fgiveaway&amp;a=contest+rules&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;contest rules&lt;/a&gt;).
