The Cubano is a [beloved Florida dish](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-cubano) and now Jimmy John's is serving up its own take on the iconic sandwich with the debut of the Jimmy Cubano.

The new Jimmy Cubano combines all-natural bacon with a generous portion of smoked ham, slices of provolone cheese, pickles, mayo, and Dijon mustard. The whole thing is served on fresh-baked bread for a hearty lunch option.

Of course, Florida isn't the only region to receive a special sandwich. Jimmy John's is also remixing a classic East Coast pairing with its new [Spicy East Coast Italian](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-fajita-chicken-sandwich). This new dish puts a remix on a beloved Italian sandwich with two helpings of all-natural genoa salami and capicola. The savory meats are also paired with hand-sliced provolone, Jimmy’s hot cherry peppers, lettuce, tomato, onions, and mayo.
