Highly Recommended

Them flavors are hella good. The pepper jack, the broth, the pickles, and the cheese all work good together in this combination. The Melanda's sauce has a super hot kick but doesn't slap you in the face, and I'm surprised the bun held up to all the moisture. It's really, really good and I'd definitely make this again.

So till next time, my friends and fans, I've been Tanks signing off. Have a wonderful day, night, evening, whenever you're watching this. And always just remember, sometimes people just need to be alone. Some people need to be with their groups. If somebody doesn't want to be part of your group, don't force them in it. Just let them be them and always be kindhearted to each other. Yeah, there's plenty of negativity in this world. Literally now just I can't watch the news. I'm not going to even bring that up. But we have to look past all that craziness and find the good in people. So till next time, I've been Tank. Peace out.
