Let’s get the obvious out of the way first. When it comes to making a sandwich, I don’t go by the serving size on the meat package. One slice? Two at most? That’s not a sandwich, that’s an hors d’oeuvre. Same goes for the spread. I made a batch of a copycat recipe of Subway chipotle southwest sauce. Did I dot it on the bread? Nope. Slathered. Thick. Piled high with my favorite toppings, it was a sandwich to remember.
I used to be all dainty with my sandwich sauces. I used it sparingly. But not this one. Edge-to-edge, that’s my pledge!
A Little Smokiness For The Win
This copycat recipe for Subway chipotle southwest sauce is fresh, with a hint of citrus and fresh cilantro, but also with a little kick thanks to one of my favorites, ground chipotle chile. I love the smoky heat that ground chipotle chiles bring to whatever I use it in. It’s not over-the-top spicy or smoky, it’s just right. It’s really what sets this sandwich apart from the others.

Not Just For Sandwiches Any More
I make a big batch of this sauce and keep on hand for when I make sub sandwiches at home. But I don’t just use it for those. Regular ole sandwiches need this stuff too. And by regular I mean bologna and cheese on white bread. Not the fancy stuff.
This sauce is also great slathered on hamburger buns. The bottom one and the top one. Don’t forget that there are two cut sides!
And don’t forget hot dogs! Yeah, you might be used to squeezing mustard out on your dogs. We all are. But sometimes, you gotta change up your game! And this sauce is a great way to do it!
Also try my copycat of the great bread at Subway.
