Schlotzsky's Launches Stacked Subs With Owen Han: Bold Flavors, Satisfying Portions

What Are Schlotzsky's Stacked Subs?

The new Stacked Subs lineup launches with three signature builds: the Turkey Avocado BLT, Honey Mustard Club, and Zesty Italian. Each sandwich is served on Schlotzsky's new Artisan White or Harvest Wheat sub roll, layered with fresh, high-quality ingredients and house-made sauces.

The specifics matter here. Turkey Avocado BLT stacks real turkey breast with fresh avocado, crispy bacon, and lettuce. The Honey Mustard Club combines turkey, bacon, ham, and Swiss cheese with a house-made honey mustard sauce. The Zesty Italian goes with seasoned Italian meats, provolone, roasted red peppers, and a bold Italian dressing.

Schlotzsky's emphasizes that these aren't just bigger sandwiches. The build integrity matters. The sauce balance matters. The ingredient freshness matters. These are the standards Owen Han applies to his reviews, and they're now the standard Schlotzsky's is holding itself to.

Why This Matters in 2026

Portion sizes at fast-casual restaurants have become a cultural conversation. Customers order a sandwich and receive something that looks undersized compared to what it used to be. Schlotzsky's is betting that consumers are ready to pay for generously proportioned, well-built sandwiches that actually satisfy.

The Owen Han partnership adds credibility. Han isn't a brand ambassador in the traditional sense. He's a creator whose entire audience knows his standards are strict. If Han says Stacked Subs nail what he looks for in a great sandwich, that carries real weight with his followers.
