Contest time

The holidays are right around the corner, and faithful readers, we know you are stuck on what to get for that special someone in your life... Have we got a contest for you -- "Decipher the order slip!"

The rules are pretty simple -- take a look at the image below in Artie's very own handwriting of an actual order we placed at Mighty Subs. If you can tell us what it is that we ordered, you win. We'll randomly choose from all correct entries and award that lucky handwriting analyst with a hat. Yes, a hat. But not just any hat, a Beatles hat just like the one that Artie wears. Contest closes next Friday, October 16th. Have fun:

Day ???: The Cordon Bleu

Chicken and cheese and ham and mayo. It's a sub, and we ate it.

Don't try this at home...

...we wish we'd given that advice out earlier! A little bird told us that there's someone out there, who was so inspired by our blog that they've decided to take on the menu too! Whoever you are, stop by and say hello to us the next time you're there, because realistically, we'll probably be there.

Day ???: The Meat Lover's Breakfast Sub

Scrambled eggs. Bacon. Cheese. Ham. Sausage. More scrambled eggs.
LEGENDARY!

Special Post: Mighty Mozzarella Cheese Sticks

The Mighty Subs Mozzarella Cheese Sticks. What more can be said, really?

Mighty Score: 8/10

Day ???: The Buffalo Joe

You wrote it, we ate it. Thanks to Alex for the specialty sub recommendation of the "Buffalo Joe" -- Buffalo Chicken Strips, Scrambled Eggs, and Cheese. A sub that can definitely go toe-to-toe with the Mighty Muffin!

Note: Blogger is being stupid this morning and is rotating these photos 90 degrees for some reason... Sorry for the weird-looking photos!

Special Post: Mighty Chocolate Chip Cookie

Yeah, I know -- there are two cookies stacked one on top of the other, but that's the picture I got. Anyway, this is the Mighty Cookie. The Mighty Chocolate Chip Cookie, to be specific. The perfect dessert to compliment the perfect Mighty Subs meal.

Mighty Score: 8/10

Email us at mightymenu@gmail.com and tell us why you deserve to have a Mighty Subs World Tour 2009 T-shirt, we'll pick the best entry, and send one to you. Contest closes July 2.

The Finale

First off, thank you to everyone at Mighty Subs -- you guys are awesome, even more awesome than your subs! Thanks to everyone who's been reading this blog -- if you've had half as much fun reading this as we've had writing it, then, well, we've had twice as much fun writing it as you have had reading it. Lastly, a special thanks to DJ, who showed up and took us up on our free subs offer!

We're still curious about who posted our link to craigslist -- step forward and email us at mightymenu@gmail.com, we'd love to hear from you!

We will soon be posting some extensive analysis of our experiences with the Mighty Menu, so keep an eye out for that. And while we've finished with the regular menu, there are still plates of food we have yet to consume, not to mention all of the custom subs we've been waiting to rate.

Thanks again to everyone!

Mighty Rating: 4.33/10

Stay tuned for a full recap of today's events -- there's too much to talk about in just one post!

Special Post: Mighty Finale

Tomorrow marks our finale of the standard subs menu at Mighty Subs. To celebrate this momentous occasion, we'd like to invite fellow idiots to join in our idiocy. So here's the deal: The first 25 people who greet us at Mighty Subs tomorrow with the secret password, "Ding Dong", whom we don't already know (otherwise it'll just be the moochers from our office...) will get a free Turkey Stuffer sub, courtesy of the Three Idiots.

We'll be there around 11:45. How will you know who we are? Trust me, you'll know.

Day 28: Pastrami & Cheese

Eric's Rating: 4/10
David's Rating: 7/10
Steven's Rating: 7.5/10
Mighty Rating: 6.16/10

Special Post: Spicy Fries

These are the Mighty Subs Spicy Fries. They're... um... spicy... and um... fried.

They're the perfect compliment to some of the "lighter" fare on the menu, just the thing if you need some extra calories to fill you up after eating a smaller sub. Assigning them a Mighty Rating doesn't seem fair, because they're not the main course, only a side. But, I'll assign them one anyway.

Steve's Mighty Rating: 7/10

Day 27: Meatball with Cheese

Eric's Rating: 8/10
David's Rating: 8.5/10

Note: Under normal circumstances, David & Steve would have given this sub scores of 6, but given the myriad "sausage in a bun" jokes that can be made, we bumped our ratings up to 7.

How is it possible for a sub to get a Mighty score better than a perfect Mighty score? The answer is simple: volume.

Special Post: Sausage Mighty Muffin

We interrupt your regularly scheduled waste-of-time for a special report: The Mighty Muffin, sausage edition!



Don't let its greasy, mildly burnt look fool you, this sandwich is truly a breakfast masterpiece. The English muffin casing is toasted, which is a rarity at Mighty Subs as none of their subs come toasted. The egg is perfectly cooked to the point of being solidified but not dried out. And perhaps most importantly, the sausage is well spiced, giving the sandwich a bit of pizazz.

In my opinion, it's the best breakfast you can buy for $2.00, and one of Mighty Sub's true specialties.
