Potbelly is bolstering its sandwich selection this holiday season with the debut of two new sandwiches: The Cubano and Sweet Heat Pork BBQ.
Featuring bold flavors and comforting ingredients, the two new sandwiches are perfect for the cooler days ahead. The first of the new sandwiches, The Cubano, is a twist on the classic Cuban sandwich, featuring slow-cooked pulled pork, Swiss cheese, pickles, deli mustard, and hickory-smoked ham. On the other hand, the new Sweet Heat BBQ sandwich is a spicier option that pairs slow-cooked pulled pork with pickles, cheddar cheese, and a spicy BBQ sauce made from hot peppers.
Both The Cubano and the Sweet Heat Pork BBQ sandwich will be available starting on November 11, 2024.
