Step-by-Step Instructions for Carolina Bird Dog Sandwiches
- Begin by seasoning your chicken tenders generously with salt and pepper. Heat your grill, skillet, or oven to medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 5–7 minutes per side until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- While the chicken is cooking, grab a medium bowl and whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth and creamy.
- Preheat your oven or skillet for light toasting. Place the hoagie rolls cut-side down and toast for 2–3 minutes until crisp.
- Spread a layer of the honey mustard sauce on the bottom of each roll, then add a chicken tender. Drizzle some South Carolina mustard BBQ sauce over the chicken.
- Layer your choice of fresh toppings: shredded lettuce or coleslaw, thin slices of red onion, and chopped pickles. Add hot sauce if desired.
- Cap the sandwiches with the top half of the hoagie roll and serve warm.

Notes
Assemble sandwiches right before serving to maintain the rolls' crispiness. Experiment with flavors by adding extras like avocado or jalapeños.
