What is a Sammich? According to the Urban Dictionary
​
"Sammich is a term reserved for only the holiest and mightiest of all sandwiches. A Sammich is a true work of culinary art; A feast on a bun, if you will. A sammich is not made of the best ingredients; it is made of the "Right" ingredients! It needs the right combination of meats, cheese(s), the right sauce(s), right veggies and the right bread!"
​
All of our igredients are fresh, we slice all of our meats by hand, pressure cook our chicken and pork! We bake our own bread! Everything we make is in house and fresh with our Sammich Kings top secret ingredients and most importantly with LOVE!
