Firehouse Subs Expands Melt Lineup With New Smokin’ Honey Sauced Sandwiches

Firehouse Subs Smokin’ Honey Melts arrive July 6. Fans can try the new chicken and steak sandwiches featuring a sweet and smoky honey chipotle sauce.
Firehouse Subs is officially expanding its hot sub sandwich kingdom. Following the successful launch of their Steak & Cheese Melt and the Chicken ‘N’ Cheddar Rancher, the firefighter-founded chain announced it is dropping two brand-new premium sandwiches nationwide: the Smokin’ Honey Chicken Melt and the Smokin’ Honey Steak Melt. The new additions will officially hit participating menus on Monday, July 6, 2026.
Firehouse Subs Smokin’ Honey Melts: Sweet Heat Meets Serious Protein

The driving force behind the new Firehouse Subs Smokin’ Honey Melts is an all-new, custom-crafted honey-chipotle sauce designed to strike a balance between sweet, upfront notes and a smoky, mild chipotle kick. Both sandwiches are built on Firehouse Subs’ signature top-sliced toasted rolls and feature:
- Extra melty provolone cheese
- Brown sugar caramelized onions
- Sautéed red and green bell peppers
Guests can customize their protein base with either sliced, white-meat grilled chicken breast (packing a hefty 55 grams of protein in a medium size) or flame-seared USDA Choice prime rib steak (coming in at 47 grams of protein).
“Guests fell in love with our Steak & Cheese Melt, and that told us they wanted more from this lineup,” said Carolina Berti, chief marketing officer of Firehouse Subs. “We built the Smokin’ Honey Melts around a new chipotle sauce we couldn’t stop tasting — smoky, a little sweet, with just a mild kick. And because we’re founded by firefighters, we hold ourselves to a higher standard. Both subs are delicious, they’re here, and we can’t wait for guests to try them.”
A New Limited-Time Dessert
Alongside the savory melts, Firehouse Subs is introducing a fresh treat for those with a sweet tooth: the Cookies & Crème Cookie. Baked fresh in-restaurant daily, this limited-time dessert features a blonde cookie base loaded with white crème chips and crunchy chocolate sandwich cookie pieces. It will be available while supplies last.
Eating Good, Doing Good
As with all purchases at the sandwich chain, buying a Smokin’ Honey Melt helps give back. A portion of every purchase directly benefits the Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation. The foundation provides lifesaving equipment and resources to first responders and public safety organizations, having awarded more than $115 million to local heroes across North America to date.
