Shake Shack is adding chili to the menu.

For a limited time, the chain is serving a chili cheeseburger, chili cheese dog, and chili cheese fries at locations across the US. The chili is made with slow-braised beef, as well as ancho and chile de arbol peppers.

While chili on its own won't be on the official menu, customers can order a cup of chili as a side as a sort of "secret menu" item.

Shake Shack is debuting the chili menu items on Thursday, November 2. However, the chili-themed menu will become available on the chain's app starting Monday, October 30.
