The Godfather
A roast beef sandwich with pizza sauce and provolone. This secret menu item is a crowd favorite and even made a limited appearance on McAlister’s official menu in 2012. With thinly sliced roast beef, melted provolone, and oregano-rich pizza sauce on a toasted baguette, The Godfather will turn pizza lovers into sandwich lovers. How to Order: Ask for this secret menu item by name, as some locations may still offer it. Or if your local store doesn't, order a makeshift Godfather! Not all locations offer pizza sauce, but you can ask for a roast beef and melted provolone melt on a baguette (feel free to add all the available condiments you’d like). Price: ~$8
Peppers, Onions & Beef
A saucy twist on a classic cheesesteak. Having a brief moment on McAlister’s menu in 2012, this fan-favorite sandwich can still be ordered today. Piled high with roast beef, steamed onions, bell peppers, and melty provolone cheese, this hoagie sandwich is served alongside a cup of warm au jus. How to Order: Ask for this hidden menu item by name, or order a French Dip sandwich with onions, bell peppers, and provolone cheese. Price: ~$8
The Patriot
An all-American turkey and cheese deli sandwich. Sure, it sounds simple, but The Patriot is anything but! This classic deli sandwich features smoked turkey, Swiss cheese, lettuce, and tomato on wheatberry bread slathered with mayo and McAlister’s signature orange cranberry sauce. With the sweet condiments and savory fillings, this sandwich will have you moaning “America!” with each bite. How to Order: Order this secret menu item by name, or ask for a McAlister’s Club with no ham, bacon, or cheddar cheese, and swap the honey with orange cranberry sauce. Pro Tip: Swap the wheatberry bread with a bread of your choice if your location doesn’t offer it. Regular wheat or white bread is just as tasty! Price: ~$8
Sweetberry Chicken
A grilled chicken sandwich with sweet cranberry sauce. Nestled between 2 slices of wheatberry bread and doused in orange cranberry sauce, the Sweetberry Chicken sandwich is for any chicken lover with a sweet tooth. Decorated with lettuce, tomatoes, lite mayo, and Swiss cheese, what’s not to love about this chicken sandwich? Pro Tip: Wheatberry bread is a seasonal offering and may not be available in all locations, so in a pinch, opt for rye or wheat bread instead. On the other hand, orange cranberry sauce can be ordered year-round and added to any sandwich. Price: ~$11

Turkey Cranberry Griller
A grilled ciabatta sandwich perfect for Thanksgiving. The Turkey Cranberry Griller was a seasonal offering in 2013, but some locations may be able to curb your turkey cravings with a recreation. This grilled sandwich is filled with smoked turkey, gorgonzola, cranberry compote, and sliced Granny Smith apples. How to Order: Order this sandwich by name (especially in November), or ask your server if they can recreate it with what they have available. Pro Tip: In November, McAlister’s has also been known to roll out the Turkey Cranberry Salad, which features the same ingredients over a head of lettuce. Price: ~$8
