Samantha Busch, Kyle Busch's wife, follows an annual family tradition every Christmas. Samantha took to Instagram to share a glimpse of the "annual Christmas Eve sauce" as the Busch household welcomes the spirit of the holiday season.
Kyle Busch is a veteran NASCAR driver who pilots the No. 8 Chevrolet Camaro for Richard Childress Racing. The 39-year-old driver is spending the off-season with his family, including his wife Samantha and two kids, Brexton and Lennix.
Samanth recently turned up the Christmas spirits by sharing their Christmas Eve sauce on social media.
"Annual Christmas Eve sauce begins," Busch wrote in an Instagram story.
The sauce seems to be tomato-based, perfect for dishes like pizza and pasta. Given her Italian heritage, Samantha Busch could be making a classic Italian dish like spaghetti for Kyle, Brexton, and Lennix.
Last week, the Busch family also welcomed the holiday season with a dinner at The Angus Barn in North Carolina. She recommended that her followers add the steakhouse to their Christmas bucket list.
Hopefully, the NASCAR off-season gives Kyle Busch a good rest following a disappointing season in the No. 8 car. This year saw the end of two of Busch's impressive streaks: 19 consecutive seasons with at least one race win and 11 consecutive playoff appearances.
The Las Vegas native came close to extending both streaks at the Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona but Harrison Burton took the lead from him on the final lap to win the race.
Busch will return to NASCAR in the No. 8 RCR Chevy next year. He will compete alongside teammate Austin Dillon, with the team reportedly considering adding a third car.
Kyle Busch's wife Samantha shares plans for 2025 NASCAR season
While Kyle Busch looks to snap a winless streak, Samantha also has plans for 2025. After a fan gave her a customized Tito's vodka bottle at her pop-up, Samantha said she would continue hosting pop-ups at racetracks.
Samantha Busch said:
"I just love you guys. I'm so excited. So just you know, they're probably getting mad at me for already sharing this, but our plan is to continue doing pop-ups again next year at the racetracks, and I just appreciate you guys coming out, chit-chatting."
She added:
"It's so much fun, so we're already working on new exclusive designs for next year, setting the pop-ups schedule ahead of time, and I'm just pumped. So, thank you. Thank you. Thank you."
For the uninitiated, Samantha Busch sets up her pop-up shop during race weekends to sell products like race day tees and accessories. It is also a place where she holds a meet and greet to interact with her fans.
However, the pop-up shop isn't available during all race weekends. She posts the schedule on her shop's social media page.
