Subway Unleashes Fiery Ghost Pepper Bread
Subway is spicing things up with the introduction of its all-new Ghost Pepper Bread, a game-changer for heat lovers. Available for a limited time, this bold new flavor promises to elevate every sub on the menu while showcasing two exciting new sandwiches.
What makes Ghost Pepper Bread special? Subway’s culinary team has dedicated over a year to crafting their recipe, which balances intense heat with satisfying crunch. The process begins each day in Subway restaurants, where Artisan Italian bread dough is coated in a mix of ghost pepper, habanero, and paprika-seasoned panko breadcrumbs. Topped with Monterey cheddar cheese and jalapeño slices, the bread is then baked fresh.
For those who look to turn up the heat, Ghost Pepper Bread enhances two new subs:
- Spicy Nacho Steak: A revamped take on the summer favorite, this sub features sliced steak smothered in creamy cheddar cheese sauce, complemented by green peppers, red onions, spicy jalapeños, and the crunchy SubKrunch topping, all drizzled with Creamy Sriracha.
- Fiery Meatball: This spicy spin on Subway’s iconic meatball sub cranks up the flavor profile with savory pepperoni, juicy meatballs, pepper jack cheese, and extra jalapeños, finished off with creamy Sriracha sauce and a blend of 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,” said 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.”
