Lunchtime shouldn’t be boring. At Knuckle Sandwiches, we believe every sandwich should pack a punch of flavor, personality, and satisfaction. Whether you're building one at home or ordering from our spot in Mesa, these 10 sandwich hacks will take your lunch from meh to mouthwatering.
1. Start with the Bread That Bites Back
The foundation of every great sandwich? Killer bread. We’re talking ciabatta that holds the heat, bagels that mean business, and wraps with a little attitude. Toast it, press it, or give it a quick sear to level up the texture. Try our spinach tortilla turkey wrap or anything on our fresh-baked rolls — you’ll see what we mean.
2. Add Crunch (That Isn’t Just Lettuce)
Texture is everything. Chips in your sandwich? Go for it. Pickled onions, crispy onions, sliced cucumbers, or even jalapeño kettle chips — all fair game. The Knuckle Sandwich has a little crunch in every bite because we know texture = satisfaction.
3. Make It Saucy — But Smart
We’re all about that sauce life. Want a real flavor explosion? Mix sauces! Try spicy mustard with mayo, chipotle aioli with ranch, or pesto with balsamic glaze. At Knuckle Sandwiches, we layer sauces for balanced boldness without the soggy regrets.
4. Warm It Up the Right Way
Some sandwiches are just better hot. But not microwave hot — we’re talking panini press, skillet, or oven toasted. If you’re local, we’ll do it for you. Our hot melts, like the steak sandwich or corned beef Reuben, are proof that heat makes the magic happen.
5. Stack with Purpose
Don’t just pile things on — build flavor with intention. Alternate meats and cheese. Tuck veggies between layers for even bites. And always place wet ingredients in the center to avoid soggy bread. (We’ve built a few thousand sandwiches — trust us.)
6. Play with Pickles
Not all pickles are created equal. Dill is classic, but have you tried bread & butter on a turkey sandwich? Or spicy pickled jalapeños on a pastrami melt? Our homemade pickle game is strong — and you can ask for extras.
7. Get Creative with Add-Ons
Eggs? Hashbrowns? Sliced avocado? Don’t let your imagination stop at mayo and mustard. Our breakfast bagel sandwiches prove that anything delicious belongs between bread. (Try a bowl too if you’re skipping the carbs — we’ve got you covered.)
8. Don’t Skip the Sidekick
Soup and sandwich is an elite combo. Our customers rave about our homemade soups because they’re made fresh — and they complete the meal. A spoonful of soup between bites? Chef’s kiss.
9. Cut It Like You Mean It
Diagonal? Straight down the middle? Or are you a "rip and eat" kind of person? However you cut it, presentation matters. Wrap it right, press it tight, and make sure every bite holds up. At Knuckle Sandwiches, every sandwich is made to stay together until the last bite.
10. Let Us Handle It For You 😉
Sometimes the best hack is knowing when to trust the pros. We’ve been serving Mesa for over five years with family recipes, locally sourced ingredients, and next-level sandwiches. Whether you want a classic turkey or something wild like The Heavyweight, we’ve got the flavor game on lock.
