It may not be Stampede season, but Subway Canada is leaning into the cowboy theme with its new Chicken Rancher Sandwich.
A hearty offering that is packed with meat and veggies, the stars of the new Chicken Rancher Sandwich are certainly
Subway's Canadian farm-raised rotisserie-style chicken and Canadian farm-raised maplewood-smoked bacon. Both meats are paired with fresh veggies, twice the shredded Monterrey Jack and cheddar, and the zesty kick of Peppercorn Ranch dressing, all served on your choice of fresh Subway bread. The end result is a sandwich that's very similar to the Chicken Bacon & Peppercorn Ranch Sandwich released around this time last year.
The new Chicken Rancher Sandwich is available now from Subway locations across Canada for a limited time.
