Best jimmy johns sandwich ever?
Okay hear me out. I've been a Jimmy John's guy for years. Pepe, Turkey Tom, Vito — I've done the rounds. But a few weeks ago an employee named Wyatt told me he came up with a custom build and asked if I wanted to try it. I said sure, why not.
It changed my life. Here's the order:
Chicken Bacon Ranch on French bread, GUTTED and TOASTED
- Ex mayo
- No onion
- EZ chicken ranch
- Ex parm
- Cucumber
- EZ oregano
- Ex fried onion
- Ex EX Euro seasoning (added BEFORE toasting — this is critical)
Gutting the bread keeps the bread-to-filling ratio actually edible instead of mostly bread. Toasting it with the extra parm, fried onion, and DOUBLE Euro seasoning baked INTO the bread creates this crispy savory crust situation that I genuinely can't stop thinking about. The cucumber goes on after to add a fresh crunch that cuts through all the richness. Easy on the chicken ranch keeps it from getting sloppy.
I've ordered it four times since. Two different locations. Bulletproof every time.
Shoutout to Wyatt. Man's a sandwich artist in a world of sandwich technicians. If you're reading this, you deserve a raise.
Try it. Report back. You're welcome.
