It seems that things are heating up both outside and inside [Firehouse Subs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smoked-turkey-italian-sub) with the debut of the new Jamaican Jerk Turkey Sub. With this [spicy new sammie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-sandwiches) on the menu, you can take your taste buds all the way to Jamaica.

The new Jamaican Jerk Turkey Sub from Firehouse Subs is a Caribbean-themed offering that's available at locations nationwide for a limited time. The new sub starts with slices of [smoked turkey breast](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smoked-cheddar-bourbon-club), which are then topped sweet mustard sauce, a Caribbean seasoning blend, Pepper Jack cheese, creamy mayo, lettuce, tomato, and white onion. The whole thing is served on a toasted sub bun.

While this new sub won't set your mouth ablaze, the hint of Caribbean flavors helps to elevate an ordinary turkey sub.
