The sandwich is crafted with Genoa salami along with Cotto salami, Capicola and Chicago-style Giardiniera vegetables before being topped with pepper jack cheese and the brand's signature chipotle mayo. The sandwich is served hot to help melt the cheese and give it a more substantial flavor experience, while the spicy nature of the menu item will position it well for avid fans of fiery fare.
