Yes. Our famous Rosemary Peasant Bread is included complimentary. Typically, 3 loaves accompany a large order (Entrée, Salads, Grill selections or Create Your Own Pasta) and 2 loaves for small orders. Additional loaves of bread may also be purchased.

The company closed 37 unprofitable locations in a bid to turn a profit. Mac Grill could not convince some landlords to renegotiate leases, so the landlords filed lawsuits and the company had to file for bankruptcy protection.

The inside is as soft as a cloud, and the crust of the bread has got that perfect olive oil flavor and a little bit of chew. The good kind of chew. SO DANG GOOD!

While underworked dough can simply be fixed by a little more kneading, severely overworked dough cannot be fixed. Instead, the overworked dough will result in a hard loaf that will likely not be eaten. It's important not to overwork your dough and continually check for overworking throughout the kneading process.

While some enjoy the rhythmic motion of kneading by hand, there are advantages to using a stand mixer. Using a stand mixer takes less time because you can mix and knead the dough in the same bowl. Machine kneading is also easier on the wrists and hands.

Under-kneaded dough doesn't spring up as much in the oven, resulting in a flat-looking loaf with a dense texture. It may also tear when you try to cut slices.

Put the bread slices on a medium-hot grill and cook covered until grill marks form and the bread slices are lightly toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the slices over and cook them on the other side until grill marks form there another 2 to 3 minutes.

After your pasta is finished, there'll be leftover sauce on the plate/bowl. The bread acts as an accessory for you to pick up all the sauce and eat it.

Pasta sauces are known for their flavourful and often savoury profiles. Bread serves as a versatile tool for savouring every last bit of sauce left on the plate. Whether it's a creamy Alfredo or a hearty Bolognese, bread can be used to mop up the remaining sauce, ensuring that no flavour is wasted.

Cook covered on a pre-heated grill between 425-450 for thirty minutes. Remove the lid and bake for 15-20 more minutes until an internal thermometer reads between 205-210 degrees. Cool for an hour, slice, and enjoy!
