      Escobar frequents the Brazilian steakhouse chain Fogo de Chão. He has taken teammates and team employees to different locations throughout the country. While with the Twins in 2018, he told reporters that his power at the plate came from "a lot of Fogo de Chão." The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported in 2021 that Escobar would shout "Fogo power" after hitting home runs. On the tenth anniversary of his Major League debut, the business donated $10,000 to his charity in the form of an oversized check.
      In June 2023, Escobar became a U.S. citizen.
