Spatchcock Funk Presents:
The Local 43 "Circuit Breaker" Sandwich! 😊
We’re out here tryin’ to show mad respect for all those electrical workers who are out there
workin’ so hard to keep our world movin’ and lit up. To pay homage to all of those hard workin’
cats in IBEW-NECA, we light up a sandwich that lights up your taste buds. This baby is
hearty, so it’ll fill you up for lunch when you’re on the grind. It’s multi-faceted,
so it can be served warm or wrapped in foil and brought to work, too. Every electrician
we’ve worked with has a great tool belt, and something for any situation, so that’s
what we’re modeling this sammy after. We put a lot of care into this one, the same
way all the electrical workers in the game go after everything they do. These
people know their way around a circuit breaker, so we named this heart
breaker after that. Switch it up, flippin’ some breakers and turn it on.
