The two new Asian-Inspired sandwiches includes the BBQ Brisket Asian Fusion Sandwich along with the plant-based Roasted Red Pepper Banh Mi Sandwich, which are both served on any of the brand's bread options. The BBQ Brisket Asian Fusion Sandwich is made with all-natural hickory-smoked beef brisket, while the Roasted Red Pepper Banh Mi Sandwich offers consumers a plant-based alternative to the classic Vietnamese sandwich. The new Erbert & Gerbert’s sandwiches are available for a limited time only at participating locations starting on February 3, 2020.
