ARBY’S ROAST BEEF SANDWICH

HOW TO MAKE ARBY’S ROAST BEEF SANDWICH

Once you have the right ingredients, you can’t just throw it together and call it a day. The taste and texture will be completely off. The true Arby’s Roast Beef Sandwich is homogeneously warm and tender and to replicate the true experience your sandwich needs to mimic that texture.

The roast beef needs to be heated, just as it is in the fast food joint. To do this in your kitchen, using your microwave or skillet on the stovetop would be the obvious choices. However, the microwave cooks unevenly and will quickly turn portions of your beef rubbery, and you don’t want to risk searing or crisping the beef in a hot fry pan. Instead, heat an inch or two of water in a saucepan and dunk the slices of roast beef in the hot liquid for approximately 10 seconds. The meat will be fully cooked through, yet still perfectly tender.

After lightly toasting the buns, the whole sandwich can be assembled and then thrown in the microwave for 11 seconds. This warms the bun and modifies the sandwich’s texture to perfectly resemble what you would expect to be served in a fast food joint.
