Frequently Asked Questions About Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich
What comes on an Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich?
An Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich comes with thinly sliced roast beef, cheddar cheese sauce, Red Ranch sauce, and an onion roll. Ingredients and preparation can vary by market, so the local menu is the best source for location-specific details.
What is the Red Ranch sauce on an Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich?
Red Ranch is the tangy, reddish sauce served on an Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich. It is part of the sandwich's signature flavor; despite the name, it should not be assumed to be the same as standard ranch dressing.
Is the cheddar on an Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich real cheese?
The Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich is made with cheddar cheese sauce, not a slice of cheddar. A cheese sauce has a smoother, pourable texture, so the sandwich tastes and feels different from one topped with sliced cheese.
What makes an Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich different from a Classic Roast Beef sandwich?
An Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich adds cheddar sauce and Red Ranch to the roast beef and is served on an onion roll. A Classic Roast Beef sandwich does not have that same sauce-and-roll combination, which gives the Beef 'n Cheddar its distinct taste.
Why is the bun on an Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich an onion roll?
An onion roll is the characteristic bread for an Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich. Its onion flavor complements the roast beef and sauces, and helps distinguish this menu item from Arby's simpler roast beef sandwiches.
Can you make an Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich at home?
Yes. Layer thinly sliced roast beef on an onion roll, then add cheddar cheese sauce and a tangy red sauce inspired by Red Ranch. Warm it briefly, but avoid soaking the roll with sauce or it can turn soggy.
Is an Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich high in sodium?

How should you store and reheat an Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich?
Refrigerate leftover Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich promptly and eat it within a few days. For a better texture, warm the filling separately if possible and assemble it on the roll afterward; do not leave the sandwich at room temperature for a long time.
Is an Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich still available?
Availability of the Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich depends on the country and restaurant. Check the current menu for your local Arby's, since an item listed in one market may not be offered at every location.
Is an Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich a healthy choice?

What is Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich?
Arby's Beef 'n Cheddar Sandwich is an American fast-food sandwich made with thinly sliced roast beef, cheddar cheese sauce and a soft bun, often finished with a tangy red sauce.
