Grilled sandwiches at Jack in the Box

I was one of probably many that took advantage of Jack in the Box's promotional offer this last Tuesday - get one of their new grilled sandwiches for free with the purchase of a large drink.

The sandwiches come in two choices - there's the Grilled Turkey Bacon Cheddar with roasted turkey, cheddar cheese and bacon, and the Grilled Deli Trio, with salami, sliced ham, roasted turkey, provolone cheese and pickles. Both served on toasted artisan bread 

I decided to give the turkey bacon cheddar sandwich a try first.

When I first unwrapped my sandwich, sliced in half, I reached for one piece and as the melted cheddar cheese stretched from one slice to the other, so did my smile. I love melted, stringy cheese!

I'm not a huge fan of turkey but I love bacon. The cheese, turkey and bacon blended so well, there wasn't one flavor that overpowered the other.

The bread was nicely toasted, a little greasy but it was more like butter grease than oil grease, which is fine with me. It reminded me of grilled cheese butter. I can't confirm but I believe the artisan bread is sourdough, or that's what it closely tasted to, to me.

For $4.19 plus tax, it's a little pricey for Jack in the Box, but I believe the taste and size was worth it. The $2.29 I paid for the drink and free sandwich was a good price, even though I couldn't finish the monstrously sized "large" drink.

I'll have to give the Deli Trio a try soon...
