Jimmy John\u2019s vaguely problematically-named \u201cFrenchie\u201d sandwich contains salami, capicola, provolone, and salted butter on a thinner version of its standard French bread. They\u2019re premade in limited quantities each day, so plan on an early lunch if you want to be sure to get one.<\/p>\n
As the name suggests, the Frenchie is Jimmy John\u2019s take the popular French jamon-beurre<\/em> sandwich. I went to a fancy culinary school, and speak culinary French, and so can tell you that jamon-beurre<\/em> means ham-butter. (That\u2019s not true. The only language skills I picked up during my time working in restaurants was to answer to \u201cOi! Pinche pendejo!<\/em>\u201d). As the name suggests, it\u2019s a straightforward sandwich of ham and butter on a baguette, which requires all three elements to be of top quality for it to work.<\/p>\n I\u2019m a fan of Jimmy John’s, but its ingredients aren\u2019t up to the task. The bread is soft with a nice bite to its crust, but it doesn\u2019t have the chew and crackling crust of a great French baguette. The cold cuts and cheese are better than Subway\u2019s, but you could find the same in your grocer\u2019s deli. I\u2019m not looking for the Frenchie to transport me to a caf\u00e9 in Paris, but without really top-quality ingredients this is a fairly plain sandwich. <\/p>\n Jimmy John\u2019s tries to overcome this shortcoming by replacing the traditional ham with salami and capicola, but neither stands out, neither adding nor subtracting from the sandwich, making me think they should’ve simply stuck with ham.<\/p>\n The only ingredient Jimmy John\u2019s added to their menu for this sandwich is the salted butter. For some, this may not seem enough to justify a whole new sandwich, but as a Wisconsin native, I must disagree. The home of the Butter Burger knows that butter can improve any recipe. I had a friend in grade school who had peanut butter and butter sandwiches for lunch every day. We like butter so much that we once outlawed margarine. Though I was generally disappointed in the Frenchie, the butter adds a salted richness that serves to meld the flavors is a pleasing way. <\/p>\n The Frenchie is a good option if someone is looking for a few simple ingredients combined in a satisfying arrangement. Fans of the franchise\u2019s \u201cPlain Slim\u201d options with only meat and cheese may find something to like. Others will be better served by ordering something else, unless they really like butter. Now, if you\u2019ll excuse me, it\u2019s time for the annual butter sculpture eating contest.<\/p>\n Purchased Price:<\/strong> $4.99 What is the Jimmy John’s Frenchie?
