I love grilling chicken because it's a healthier choice. I put my "Joe-style" twist on this sandwich with a spicy-sweet marinade and a homemade blue cheese dressing. -Joe Slate, Port St Joe, Florida

These sandwiches were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them! He said they were the best buffalo chicken sandwiches he's ever had. I'll definitely be making them again, but I'll use a milder sauce next time.

I've made these sandwiches several times now and they're always a hit! They're perfect for game day or a casual dinner. I love that I can make them ahead of time and just reheat them when I'm ready to eat.

These sandwiches were easy to make and so delicious! I loved the combination of flavors. The buffalo sauce was spicy, but not too hot, and the bacon and ranch dressing added a nice touch of creaminess.
