INSIDER – I started my club-sandwich journey at Jersey Mike’s.
The Jersey Mike’s club sub consists of turkey, ham, provolone, applewood-smoked bacon, and mayo. I added lettuce and tomato since they were also included in the photo on the website.
My 7-inch sub cost me $11.57.
The turkey and ham were stacked high on the club sub — the pile was easily an inch thick, and that didn’t even include the bacon strips. The meat was shaved thin and tasted fresh.
The tomato slices were a good size, and the mayo wasn’t slathered on too heavily.
Unfortunately, the wheat bread didn’t seem particularly fresh or soft to me. I also wasn’t thrilled with how readily the finely chopped lettuce fell out of the sandwich.
Despite those minor flaws, I’d 100% order the Jersey Mike’s club again.
Next on my list was Jimmy John’s.
The Jimmy John’s country club features turkey, ham, provolone, lettuce, tomato, and mayo. My 8-inch sandwich cost $11.97.
I thought the Jimmy John’s club had the best bread.
Maybe it was made shortly before I placed my order, but it seemed unusually fresh for a fast-food joint.
Though it didn’t have bacon, the meat and cheese were cut thicker than Jersey Mike’s, and the cheese was more flavorful.
