Take a trip to Havana with this Cuban inspired beef sourdough sandwich, featuring tender beef tossed in a zesty Abuela’s marinade. We’ve topped it with a refreshing cucumber salsa and pickled jalapeños for a spicy kick, served with crunchy corn chips on the side.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.
