Jersey Mike's serves subs with bread that's baked fresh daily, but the process involves thawing part-baked bread delivered frozen. While the company states that the bread is made fresh, it is not mixed from scratch at each location. Instead, employees reported that the bread is thawed overnight, then water is sprayed on it to achieve even coloring and prevent burning. This method enhances the bread's expansion and results in a glossy crust, differing from a fully homemade bread process.
Jersey Mike's bread is baked fresh daily, but the dough arrives frozen and is merely proofed and finished off in-store to eliminate extra labor.
At Jersey Mike's, the shaped bread is thawed overnight, sprayed with water, and then proofed before being baked in-store.
