Description

Enjoy a delicious and budget-friendly copycat version of Arby’s Roast Beef Cheddar Sandwiches paired with crispy seasoned curly fries. This family favorite recipe features warm deli-style roast beef, creamy cheddar cheese sauce, and toasted buns for the perfect homemade sandwich experience.


Ingredients

Scale

Sandwich

  • 1 lb deli-style roast beef
  • 1 can Ricos Premium Cheddar Cheese Sauce (15 oz)
  • 4 onion sandwich buns

Side

  • 1 bag Arby’s Seasoned Curly Fries (frozen)


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 250°F to prepare for warming the roast beef without drying it out.
  2. Warm Roast Beef: Wrap the roast beef in foil and place it on a baking sheet. Warm in the oven for 8–10 minutes to heat through gently while retaining moisture.
  3. Heat Cheese Sauce: While the beef warms, pour the cheddar cheese sauce into a saucepan and heat over medium-low, stirring occasionally until smooth and melted.
  4. Toast Buns: Lightly toast the sandwich buns either in a skillet on the stovetop or under the broiler for 1–2 minutes until slightly crispy and warm.
  5. Cook Curly Fries: Prepare the frozen curly fries according to package instructions, typically baking at 425°F for 20–25 minutes until crispy and golden.
  6. Assemble Sandwiches: Place the warmed roast beef onto the toasted bottom buns. Drizzle generously with warm cheddar cheese sauce, then top with the bun.
  7. Serve: Serve the sandwiches hot alongside a generous pile of crispy curly fries for a satisfying meal.

Notes

  • Warming the roast beef at a low temperature keeps it juicy and tender without overcooking.
  • Use medium-low heat for the cheese sauce to avoid burning or separating.
  • Toasting the buns adds texture and prevents sogginess from the cheese sauce.
  • Follow the curly fries package instructions closely for best results and crispy texture.
  • This recipe is perfect for a quick homemade version of a fast-food favorite.
