Need to find a place that does it in-house to medium rare and slices to order, then it will withstand heating at home. I've always been horrified by supermarket roast beef.

You want real chewy ribeye, run on over to Carl's Jr and get the Philly Cheesesteak Thickburger, yet another in the endless line of special items that make both burgers and ribeye worse by combining them into one sandwich. But this time with Cheese Wiz!

I learned quite a bit reading this entire thread. A genuine thank you to all goon participants. My $.02:

gently caress Arby's for axing the potato cakes. They were amazing.

The only items I will order at Arby's are the chicken cheddar ranch sando (sloppy but super flavorful), the jalapeno poppers (didn't even know about the bronco berry stuff - thanks again - will try), the fish sando, and any gyro (especially Greek but beef or turkey are pretty good as well.

The prices are pretty outrageous but those items are good and, for now, worth it.

I live in a small town with only Arby's, McDs, DQ, and taco hell as the ff options so limited choices. Oh well.

I just realized that garlic ribeye sandwich was somehow still on the menu so I grabbed one for lunch today. I like that weird little thing for some reason, I wish they'd just keep it permanently.

Went there today craving some jalapeno bites, ordered them, and found out afterwards they'd given me mozzarella sticks instead. I guess asking for bronco berry sauce at the window wasn't enough of a tipoff that something was wrong.



PS: Turns out that bronco berry sauce isn't a secret delicious flavor combo with mozz sticks :sigh:

imo Arbys should be the dominant fast food chain in the land but someone somewhere, or a group of people, is/are massively loving up because how do you gently caress up the business model of "lots of meat between bread, quickly"

I would say it goes all the way back to the Raffel brothers getting cutesy with how they named their restaurant venture. Just imagine where the chain would be today if they'd called it BEEF BROS right from the start.

Took mine forever too. They don't seem to let you pickup at the drive thru they ask you to go inside which is kind of annoying.

Coupons are decent though. They got a 2 for 7 dollars that stacks with a 3 dollar off 10 bucks app c coupon so you can get 2 for 7, add in a side or dessert and get it for like 7 to 8 bucks and enough food for 2 people. Not terrible.

Finally got around to trying the sweet heat beef & brisket sandwich. It was a bit mixed. The base was fine, but I'm not sure about the sauce - aside from horseradish, I don't think spicy sauces are my thing with their sandwiches. It just felt like it would be better going back to barbecue sauce, especially with the pickles on there.

Too many places in general these days are putting pickles on sandwiches that don't require them or aren't enhanced by them. I never ask to remove them so I'm always disappointed when they negatively impact the flavor

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
Yeah the menu is weird now, I could find nothing with hot turkey on there which is what I was in the mood for when I pulled in. I like the brisket but it wasn't what I was in the mood for.

One more try to get the country rib sandwich today, still nope. I don't think it actually exists.

So I grabbed the next random limited time item on the menu, the Americana roast beef. And that one's just weird: lettuce/tomato/onion/American cheese/Big Mac sauce, on a sesame bun. Pretending their roast beef is a burger just doesn't really work for me, especially because all the cold ingredients don't even give the beef a fighting chance to stay warm while you eat it. This one's a fail.

Supposedly if you buy the burger this week through the app you'll get a coupon for another free burger or sandwich valid for 14 days

Been wanting to try their burg I missed it last time it was available.

I just checked this. Not true, at least for me. It shows that the side is adding 2.89 to the combo price. Switching to curly fries doesn't change the price at all.

The burg was... Mediocre. It did add a coupon 6o my page for a free sammich if I buy something at menu price though so I guess it was worth trying.

... Lol the coupon is for ANY sandwich on the menu for free with any purchase... Like you could buy a drink and a half pound roast beef and the giant sandwich is free :psyduck:
