Key Ingredients You’ll Need

- Step 2. Add 1/4 cup of cheese to the bottom bun. Put 1/4 of the french dressing on the top bun. Place 1/4 of the roast beef onto the bottom bun before placing the top bun on it.

Tips & Tricks For The Best Arby’s Beef and Cheddar:
Here are a few great hacks for making the best sandwich:
- Storing: use foil to wrap the sandwiches and store them in the fridge for up to 2 days. You can reheat them in the oven!
- Reheating: add a little milk to the cheese sauce and heat in a saucepan over low heat. Stir continuously until warm. Make sure you’re heating nice and slow, or you will end up with oily clumps of cheese!
- Roast Beef: Ask the butcher for extra-thin slices of roast beef.
- Buns: If you aren’t a fan of onions, you can use a plain, sesame, poppy seed, or any other bun you prefer.
- Slap some bacon on your Arby’s sandwich to make their popular Bacon, Beef & Cheddar!
