Real Wood. Real Fire. Real Smoke – Arby’s Expands
Smokehouse Platform With 8-Hour Pit-Smoked Turkey
Smokehouse Turkey Joins Smokehouse Brisket on the Arby’s Menu
ATLANTA (April 27, 2015) – If good things come to those who wait, smoked meat aficionados across
America are in for another treat from Arby’s. That’s because Arby’s returned to the same familyowned smokehouse in Texas, that last year helped bring the now-famous 13-hour Smokehouse
Brisket Sandwich to life, to develop the next Smokehouse superstar: the Smokehouse Turkey
Sandwich.
The new sandwich features sliced turkey that has been mesquite-smoked in Texas for eight hours,
topped with natural smoked cheddar cheese, crispy onions and white BBQ sauce on a specialty roll.
It joins Arby's best-selling new menu item in company history, the Smokehouse Brisket Sandwich,
which offers layers of 13-hour hickory-smoked brisket, garnished with smoked gouda, crispy onions,
mayo and BBQ sauce on a toasted specialty roll.
“We knew that adding another protein to our Smokehouse lineup would be a tall order given the
cult-following that our brisket has developed,” said Rob Lynch, Brand President and Chief Marketing
Officer of Arby’s. “That’s why we joined our friends at Sadler’s in Texas to come up with the right
protein and perfect recipe to complement the Smokehouse Brisket. The result is a turkey sandwich
that’s in a league of its own, with flavor that is rivaled only by Mom’s Thanksgiving turkey.”
The new Smokehouse Turkey Sandwich is available for a limited time starting today. For more
