The [Capriotti's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ny-chopped-cheese-sandwich) American Wagyu French Dip sandwich is a limited-edition menu item being launched by the brand to provide patrons with the ability to access the high-quality beef in a decidedly low-cost way.

The sandwich starts off with a sub roll topped with slices of [American Wagyu beef](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wagyu-burger) sourced from [Snake River Farms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/american-wagyu-prime-rib) before being topped with mayo, black pepper and Swiss cheese. The sandwich comes served with a cup of jus on the side for dipping to give it a burst of additional flavor with every bite.

The Capriotti's American Wagyu French Dip sandwich is priced at $13.79 for an eight-inch small version and speaks to an increasing demand for premium food products, but with a decidedly more accessible profile than alternatives.
