Frequently Asked Questions About Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich

What is Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich made of?

Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich has thinly sliced roast beef served in a soft bun. The classic version is simple; sauces and toppings may be added separately or vary with the version you order.

Is the roast beef in Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich real beef?

Yes. The sandwich is made with beef presented as thinly sliced roast beef. It is a prepared restaurant product, so it should not be assumed to be identical to a home-roasted whole joint.

Is Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich served hot or cold?

Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich is generally served with warm roast beef in the bun. If a takeaway sandwich has cooled, reheating the meat separately before rebuilding it helps keep the bun from turning soggy.

What sauce comes on Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich?

The classic Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich does not necessarily come with sauce already on it. Arby's Sauce and Horsey Sauce are popular additions, but availability and what is included can vary by order and location.

Why does the meat in Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich look pink?

Roast beef can stay pink or pinkish-brown after cooking, so its color alone does not mean it is raw. Arby's cooks the beef and serves it thinly sliced; the exact color can vary between servings.

What is the difference between Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich and Beef 'n Cheddar?

Beef 'n Cheddar adds cheddar sauce and typically an onion-style bun to roast beef. The classic Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich is the simpler option, centered on sliced roast beef and a bun.

Can you freeze an Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich?

You can freeze an Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich, but it is not ideal: thawing can make the bun wet and the meat less appealing. For better texture, freeze the roast beef separately and assemble the sandwich after reheating.

How do you reheat an Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich?

For the best texture, take the roast beef out of the bun and warm it gently, then warm the bun briefly and reassemble. Microwaving the whole sandwich can make the bread chewy or soggy.

Does Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich contain horse meat?

No. Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich is made with beef, not horse meat. The name refers to roast beef served in a sandwich, and the chain describes its sandwich meat as beef.

Is Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich a healthy choice?

It can fit as an occasional fast-food meal, but it is not especially rich in vegetables or fibre, and restaurant sauces can add salt. Pairing it with a side salad instead of fries makes the meal more balanced.

What is Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich?

Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich is an American fast-food sandwich made with thinly sliced roast beef tucked into a soft sesame-seed bun. The generous folds of meat are its defining feature, with the rounded bun holding the slices together for an easy-to-eat meal.

The beef has a savoury, meaty flavour and a tender texture, balanced by the soft, lightly browned bread. In the US it is commonly eaten as a quick lunch or casual meal; elsewhere, it fits the same fast-food setting, often with a side such as fries. It provides protein as well as carbohydrates from the bun. For a lighter meal, pair it with a salad and water rather than a fried side and sugary drink.
