Food Network-branded sandwiches: Coming to a ballpark near you?

Arizona Diamondbacks fans may not have much to cheer this season, but at least Chase Field isn’t one of eight major-league parks selected to serve Food Network-branded food.

The Food Network kitchen has created a Red, White & Blue steak sandwich featuring Maytag blue cheese and sweet and spicy Peppadew-pepper mayonnaise on a French demi baguette.

It will be available this summer at baseball stadiums in eight cities:

  • San Diego
  • St. Louis
  • Arlington (Texas)
  • Milwaukee
  • Cincinnati
  • Cleveland
  • Detroit
  • Baltimore

The network also has created city-specific steak sandwiches topped with local favorites.

According to a Food Network official, the sandwiches will have branded tissue paper, branded napkins and network show slogans, but fans won’t be slammed with constant messaging.
