Subway has revealed a new bread flavor that is the sandwich chain’s spiciest ever. Available for a limited time only, the all-new Ghost Pepper Bread brings the heat to every sub on the menu and in two all-new subs.
Subway’s culinary team spent over a year perfecting this artisanal recipe that balances heat, crunch and flavor through bold seasoning and toppings. Ghost Pepper Bread is freshly prepared every day in restaurants nationwide by carefully coating Artisan Italian bread dough in ghost pepper, habanero and paprika-seasoned panko breadcrumbs, before it is topped with Monterey cheddar cheese and jalapeño slices and then baked to crispy perfection.
Ghost Pepper Bread can be added to any six-inch or footlong sandwich, but Subway has created two all-new sandwiches to put fans’ taste buds to the test:
- Spicy Nacho Steak – A remix of the Spicy Nacho Chicken that debuted earlier this summer, this sub smothers sliced steak in creamy cheddar cheese sauce before it is topped with green peppers, red onion, spicy jalapenos and SubKrunch – Subway’s new crunchy sandwich topping – and finished with a drizzle of Creamy Sriracha
- Fiery Meatball – A spicy twist on Subway’s iconic meatball sub featuring pepperoni, juicy meatballs and pepper jack cheese with extra jalapenos, creamy Sriracha sauce, melty pepper jack and parmesan cheese
“It’s been three years since Subway added a new sub bread to our menu, so we wanted to surprise our guests with something unexpected and capable of elevating every sub on our menu,” says Paul Fabre, senior vice president of culinary and innovation at Subway. “Spicy food is wildly popular, and our guests have told us they are craving more spice on our menu. Subway's new Ghost Pepper Bread opens up so many delicious possibilities to try, whether you are looking for a hearty kick on your favorite sandwich or maximum heat from our spiciest subs yet.”
