US-based sandwich restaurant chain Quiznos has launched its new globally inspired sandwich, the Big Fat Greek Sub, across all its restaurants in US and Canada.

Quiznos partnered with foodservice manufacturer Grecian Delight | Kronos to create the new sub.

By launching the Big Fat Greek Sub, the restaurant brand is bringing back the gyro-style recipe that Quiznos has offered since 2018.

Quiznos claims that the subs are made using certified halal, seasoned gyro meat with tzatziki sauce and other ingredients, including a blend of marinated tomatoes, cucumbers and red onions.

The subs are topped with lettuce and banana peppers and are served on a choice of artisan bread.

Quiznos culinary and innovation vice-president Mike Gieseman said: “At the height of summer with fall quickly approaching, we think it’s the perfect time of year to offer a hearty, crave-able protein paired with light and refreshing toppings that satisfy any and all guest cravings.

“We have always prided ourselves on introducing innovative menu offerings while delivering the signature Quiznos quality that we are known for and the Big Fat Greek Sub is a great example of that.”

In May this year, Quiznos added Kimchi Philly and Classic Philly subs to its menu offerings.

Kimchi is a staple Korean dish prepared with salted, seasoned and fermented cabbage.
