Get your favorite fast food sandwich fix without ever leaving the house. A Copy Cat Arby’s Beef N’ Cheddar tastes just like the original, but it’s ready in a flash with ingredients already in your kitchen.
One of my favorite fast food sandwiches is the Arby’s Beef ‘N Cheddar.
Mmm, with it’s roast beef smothered in a magical golden cheese sauce, and buns topped with tangy Arby’s sauce.
It’s a thing of beauty.
The problem is that is physically pains me to pay for fast food when I can make something of equal or greater quality and taste at home.
My husband, a die-hard Arby’s flavor fanatic, agreed this sandwich is an Arby’s clone.
I have a confession to make…I haven’t been completely honest with you.
These don’t taste like the Arby’s beef & cheddar sandwiches we all know and love.
These taste better!!
It’s the same great flavor you love, but without any of the old greasy taste.
Also, if you don’t feel like mixing up your own Arby’s sauce, you can sub Catalina dressing.
I have it on good authority that that’s actually the secret, much coveted loved, Arby’s sauce.

How many bound of roast beef do I need to make a meal for 7 people when they want 3 each?
Sheila says
I would use 6 lbs that way you have a little more left over to pile on.
Molly says
Arby’s toast their buns; FYI
Cyndi says
Catalina dressing is not remotely close to Arby’s sauce. Your cheese sauce worked well though!
Lesley says
Agreed. The red sauce only tasted like ketchup. I added some Worcestershire and A1 and more garlic powder. Tasted a little better
Heather says
I picked up the Arby’s Signature Sauce from the store and made these; very well received by my family. So happy it was simple and satisfying.
