Spicy Cheesesteak Sub Sandwiches

Cousins Subs is Introducing a New Chipotle Cheese Steak Sub

Cousins Subs is ushering in fall (aka comfort food season) with two tasty new offerings: the new Chipotle Cheese Steak Sub and the new Pumpkin Pie Shake.

Perfect for those looking for something hearty that doesn't skimp on flavor, the new Chipotle Cheese Steak Sub will definitely leave you feeling satisfied. The new sub can be ordered with your choice of grilled steak or chicken, which is then paired with pepperjack cheese, sautéed green peppers, sautéed onions, and jalapeños. The whole thing is then topped off with a spicy chipotle ranch sauce and served on signature Italian bread. The sub can be enjoyed in 7.5-inch and 15-inch sizes, or in a Sub in a Bowl format.

And for dessert, don't skip the new Pumpkin Pie Shake, which blends rich pumpkin with just the right amount of fall spices.
