Review
It is a Huge sandwich that can easily be cut in half length-wise, then cut in half across to get 4 good-sized sandwiches. That is $2.75 per sandwich. Feeding a family of four. Which is a really good deal. It is heavy on the bread, but the flavors of this sandwich still comes through. This is a very good Sandwich and for the portion size and price, it can’t be beat.
If you were, and I did, make this sandwich by purchasing all the ingredients yourself and assembling this. It would cost you more money and time.
For a sandwich that can do that, taste really good, large portion for a cheap Price. That makes this sandwich Highly Recommended.
They did really well putting this together and offering it for the price that it is at. Better than Subway by far. Don’t get me wrong. I love Subway and you have variety, but the biggest bang for your buck is definitely the Lumberjack sandwich hands down. It is about four 6 inch subs or 2-foot longs that you get for $11.00.
Great Deal
That being said, this is an awesome sandwich to have with some chips on the side or Potato Salad, Macaroni Salad or to serve with soup. You can cut these into a smaller size for Party Snacks, get together, Birthday Parties. If you’re a College or University student, this is a meal you should get. Because you can get 4 portions of a very good-sized sandwich or 8 smaller sized sandwiches for $11.00. That’s Cheap and they’re very good too.
The meat portions are good and there is that Mayo Mustard Sauce that really helps things stand out. It’s an overall excellent sandwich.
Stop by your local Sobey’s or Safeway and Pick one up today along with a Bag of Chips. Enjoy!
Heated Lumberjack Sub
Wow! I mean, just Wow! This is my new way of enjoying these. I used to eat the sub just as is and tear into the bread. But, if you slice the sub into 4 sections and place two at a time into an air fryer at 400 F for a few minutes before consuming, what a difference it makes. It is an excellent sub hands own.
You can do these in the oven as well, and there is no need to wait for it to be preheated. Just turn the oven on to 450 F. Place your Lumberjack Sandwiches on a sheet and into the oven for 5 minutes. Now that’s a quick Lunch or Dinner!
Sandwich Combo
Pair the sandwich up and make it a combo!
Soup and Sandwich
Make up a soup as the main course and 1/4 of a Lumberjack Sandwich on the side, or smaller. This one is a Vegetable Beef Soup. Check out our other collections of Soups.
Sandwich and Chips
Just 1/4 of a Lumberjack Sandwich, side of Chips and a nice glass of Soda will do too sometimes. These are the Hostess BBQ Chips. I thought they were kind of cool bring back the munchies guys and had to buy a bag to see. Pair it up with your favorite chips.
