We’ve had more than our share of Halloween fun in the food world this season: Twix Ghosts, Vampire Nuggets, and Boo Buckets—oh my! But instead of jumping right into Jack Frost and mistletoe as soon as the clock strikes November—as we can be tempted to do—we think it’s only right that we give Thanksgiving a moment in the seasonal spotlight.
Thankfully, Arby’s is making sure we don’t breeze by Turkey Day, helping us savor the flavors of fall a little longer with two limited-time, turkey-stuffed sandwiches.
Arby’s Thanksgiving Menu Returns for a Limited Time
Arby’s is keeping up its fan-favorite Thanksgiving tradition, bringing back two seasonal sandwiches for a limited time. Each option is loaded with classic holiday flavors, offering a delicious, drive-thru-friendly take on the Thanksgiving feast.
The holiday-inspired sandwiches first came on the fast food scene in 2017 and have made almost annual returns ever since. However, there have been subtle changes made to the fan favorites year after year. For example, last year’s sandwiches included everything seasoning and an herbed sage and garlic spread, but this season, the sandwich is going back to the classic format.
This year, the Deep Fried Turkey Gobbler features thick-cut, deep-fried turkey, crispy onions, melty Swiss cheese, savory stuffing, tangy cranberry spread, and mayo, all piled high on a toasted sub bun.
The Deep Fried Turkey Club also stars—you guessed it—thick-sliced, deep-fried turkey, but paired with crispy bacon, Cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, and mayo on a toasted bun. And there’s bad news for fans of the Deep Fried Turkey Wrap. For the second year in a row, the wrap doesn’t appear to be returning to menus.
But fans are thrilled at the return of the two seasonal sandwiches nonetheless. In past years, fans took to Reddit to declare, “I LOVE the deep-fried turkey!” writing, “wish they would be a permanent menu item.” One fan even claimed these Thanksgiving-inspired options were better than the beloved Wawa Gobbler Hoagie—and that’s no small statement.
Arby’s Thanksgiving menu is available now at participating locations, while supplies last. And, the limited-edition menu doesn’t stop at deep-fried turkey—it also includes a brand-new Apple Pie Shake that has us considering a special Arby’s run just for the treat.
Although there’s no set end date for the sandwiches, Arby’s tends to retire its Thanksgiving items rather quickly, So, don’t deny your comfort food cravings for long—head to a drive-thru or order through the Arby’s app to grab these seasonal sandwiches while they’re hot.
