Firehouse Subs Smokin’ Honey Steak Melt: Price, Ingredients And Review

The Firehouse Subs Smokin’ Honey Steak Melt takes the chain’s flame-seared USDA Choice prime rib and gives it a sweet, smoky makeover. You get a new honey chipotle sauce, extra melted provolone, brown sugar caramelized onions and red and green bell peppers, all on Firehouse’s toasted top-sliced roll. It arrived at participating restaurants on 6 July 2026 alongside a chicken version, and it’s a big, filling sub with 47 grams of protein in a medium.

Here’s what it costs, what’s in it, how it tastes and how it compares to the chicken melt. For the full lineup, see the firehouse subs sauces guide and the rest of our menu coverage.

Firehouse hadn’t added official calorie counts for the melts to its firehouse subs nutrition info when we checked, and the numbers floating around fan sites aren’t confirmed. Check the calorie count in the Firehouse app or on the menu board at your store. Prices also change by location, so check before you order.

What Makes The Smokin’ Honey Steak Melt Special

Firehouse already had a hit with its Steak & Cheese Melt. In the official launch announcement, CMO Carolina Berti said guests “fell in love with our Steak & Cheese Melt, and that told us they wanted more from this lineup.” The Smokin’ Honey version keeps the steak-and-cheese base and adds a sweet heat that you won’t find on the classic firehouse steak and cheese.

Smokin’ Honey Steak Melt Ingredients

  • Flame-seared USDA Choice prime rib, the same steak used on the prime rib steak sub
  • Honey chipotle sauce, described by Firehouse as sweet, smoky and a little spicy

  • Brown sugar caramelized onions
  • Red and green bell peppers
  • Toasted top-sliced sub roll

How Does It Taste?

It’s sweet up front from the honey and caramelized onions, then the chipotle comes in as a gentle, smoky warmth. Firehouse calls it “just a mild kick,” so it’s not a spicy sub. The prime rib is richer than the chicken version, and the provolone pulls everything together. If you like a Philly cheesesteak with a little barbecue sweetness, this is right up your alley.

Nutritional Information

The only official nutrition figure so far is protein: 47 grams in a medium Smokin’ Honey Steak Melt. For full calories, fat, sodium and carbs, check the Firehouse app once they’re listed. As a rule, melts with extra cheese and a sweet sauce run higher in calories and sodium than plain hot subs, so a small size is a good option if you’re watching either.

Allergen Information

Based on the ingredients, the steak melt contains milk (provolone) and wheat (the roll). The honey chipotle sauce and other components may contain additional allergens. If you have a food allergy, check the firehouse subs allergen menu and ask your store before ordering.
