Score the ultimate touchdown with these NFL team-themed Pub subs

Sept. 12, 2024 - Looking to get your tailgate in victory formation? Publix has you covered with Pub subs themed after your favorite NFL teams!

"Our raving fans have enjoyed these themed subs over the last few years, so we are excited to continue to offer these team-themed subs to enhance the tailgating experience," said Publix Business Development Director of Deli Allen Brown.

Game day strategy

Working with corporate chefs, Publix created a winning game plan for four NFL subs representing these teams.

A key consideration of the strategy was to appeal to fans celebrating outside the stadiums.

"There's no better way to show team spirit than enjoying your team's sub at a tailgate," said Publix Corporate Chef Tim Donnelly.

Victory, ahoy!

Looking for treasure? The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Sub huddles our chicken tenders with bacon and cheddar cheese; it's then topped with a spicy gold sauce. Bucs fans are sure to enjoy something sweet and spicy.

Have a 'fin-tastic' time

Miami Dolphins fans will want to gain possession of this version of the Cuban sandwich!

Starting with Publix's smokehouse tavern ham, pulled pork and Swiss cheese, this savory sub runs some trick plays to keep you on your toes with its flavors. A lemon garlic aioli brings a taste of citrus to your palate, but a spicy crunch from crispy jalapenos ties it all together.

Bite into barbecue

The Jacksonville Jaguars Sub centers its flavor profile around a Southern favorite: barbecue. Topped with coleslaw, bacon, cheddar cheese and barbecue mayo, this sandwich features a smoky flavor that hits like an All-Pro linebacker and definitely will have you going back for more.

Let your taste buds take flight

The flavors of peaches, chicken and waffles are the MVPs of the Atlanta Falcons Sub.

Our famous Publix chicken tenders are suited up with a sweet maple seasoning and topped with bacon. But the sub moves your taste buds across the goal line by adding peach preserves and sriracha mayonnaise - a winning combination for game day!

Home turf advantage

Our corporate chefs enjoyed the idea of being able to develop these region-specific subs.

"We worked hard to mirror each team's hometown flavor to make each sub unique," Tim said. "It's rewarding to see both football and Pub sub fans enjoy our creations."

Head to the official supermarket of these teams to get your tailgate spread ready for game day. These subs are available for a limited time at select Publix locations. Check out publix.com to see if your store is participating.
