You don’t really need a reason to splurge on a sandwich at Zingerman’s this fall, but here’s a pretty damn good one.
Each week this November, Zingerman’s Deli will feature a different signature sandwich from shops in New York, South Carolina, Texas, and Oregon as part of the “Signature Sandwich Swap.” For each signature sandwich sold, Zingerman’s will donate $1 to Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry campaign, which strives to end child hunger in America.
Mark your calendars, because these sandwiches sound bomb. The lineup includes:
11/2-11/8
Butcher & Bee: Charleston, SC
BBQ Pulled Squash Sandwich: Butternut Squash, Butcher & Bee BBQ Sauce, Smoked Slaw, Cilantro Vinaigrette, B&B Pickles on a Hoagie Roll.
This sandwich was rated by Food & Wine as one of the best in the U.S. Thin slices of perfectly cooked squash get tossed in house-made barbecue sauce and piled with hickory-smoked cabbage coleslaw onto a freshly baked hoagie role.
11/9-11/15
