Spicy Brisket Sandwiches

This Tasty Sandwich Features Chipotle BBQ Sauce and Diced Jalapenos

Arby's released a spicy new sandwich that pairs smoked brisket with diced jalapenos. With summer officially over, consumers are eager to find new ways of warming up. This spicy sandwich provides the perfect amount of heat to combat falling temperatures.

The new 'Spicy Jalapeno Brisket' sandwich and the 'Brisket Bacon Flatbread' are the latest additions to the Arby's menu. The brisket sandwich features thin-sliced smoked brisket, cheddar cheese and crispy onion strings. The sandwich gets its spicy flavor from the addition of chipotle BBQ sauce and diced jalapenos. For those who are looking for something on the lighter side, the flatbread features the same toppings, but swaps the crispy onion strings for tomatoes, lettuce and mayo.

The new sandwiches allow customers to enjoy delicious smoked meat with a spicy twist.
