What Comes on the Chicken ‘N’ Cheddar Rancher Sub
The sandwich is built around a new grilled chicken developed to deliver char and savory depth. Each sub includes:
- New premium grilled white meat chicken
- Crisp, smoky bacon
- Melty cheddar cheese
- Herb-forward buttermilk ranch developed exclusively for Firehouse Subs
- 49 grams of protein per sandwich
Carolina Berti, Chief Marketing Officer of Firehouse Subs, said the new grilled chicken brings depth, char, and visible craftsmanship, while the buttermilk ranch is rich, herb-forward, and designed to stand on its own.
National Ranch Day 2026 Launch Timing
The launch ties to National Ranch Day on Tuesday, March 10, 2026. Firehouse Subs is giving loyalty members early access starting now, ahead of the wider rollout. The custom buttermilk ranch is a central feature of the sandwich and a key differentiator from standard chicken-bacon-ranch subs.
First Permanent Menu Addition in Three Years
The Chicken ‘N’ Cheddar Rancher Sub is the first sandwich added to the permanent Firehouse Subs lineup in three years. The 49 grams of protein positions it as a high-protein option in the fast-casual sandwich space.
How Every Purchase Supports First Responders
A portion of every Firehouse Subs purchase benefits the Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation, which has awarded more than $105 million in lifesaving equipment and resources to first responders across North America.
