Best Roy Rogers Regular Roast Beef Sandwich Recipes
THE BEST ROAST BEEF FOR SANDWICHES
The best cut of roast beef for sandwiches isn't necessarily the same as what you'd want hot from the oven. A hot roast demands plenty of marbling so that the rich fat can melt and baste the meat with its goodness. Roast beef sandwiches work better made from a leaner cut, preferably one with a mineral, earthy taste and a nice chew. A top loin roast is ideal. It's got plenty of brawny flavor, and all of the fat is on the surface, which you can easily trim off after the meat is cooked. Here, the beef is roasted low and slow to ensure rare, juicy meat. This said, if you want a more economical cut, use bottom, top or eye round here instead. Just adjust the roasting time if the cut is larger or smaller. As long as you pull the meat out of the oven when it reaches between 125 and 130 degrees, you'll get nicely rare meat. More sandwich recipes.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, stir together the garlic, salt, pepper and rosemary. Spread the paste all over the meat. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight.
- When you are ready to prepare the meat, remove it from the fridge and let stand at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes.
- Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet.
- Coat the roast lightly with olive oil. Transfer to the wire rack and roast for 75 to 95 minutes, until an instant thermometer inserted into the center of the roast registers 125 to 130 degrees for medium-rare.
- Transfer the meat to a cutting board and let cool completely before carving (trim off the fat cap if you plan to serve it cold). The meat can be roasted three days ahead; cool completely before refrigerating.

ROY ROGERS REGULAR ROAST BEEF SANDWICH
Roy Rogers used to be a large chain of fast food restaurants owned by the Marriot Corp. established in Falls Church, VA in 1968. It is now a very small chain in the Midatlantic and Northeast. They obtained a loyal following for their excellent roast beef sandwiches, burgers, and fried chicken. They were bought out by Hardees in the early 1990s which was an utter disaster for Hardees as no Roy Rogers regulars liked Hardees food. I grew up liking Roy's Roast Beef sandwiches but it's impossible to find a copycat recipe online. From admissions of Roy's, a former employee and America's Test Kitchen, here is tried authentic recipe for their roast beef sandwiches. They use USDA choice Steamship Round (the entire Round of Beef). This recipe results in a deliciously tender and juicy roast beef sandwich exactly how Roy's makes it. To improve flavor beyond Roy's try searing the beef in a saute pan prior to slow roasting. Roy's acknowledges this will enhance flavor but is cost prohibitive for them. A single 4 lb. roast will yield 20 sandwiches.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 225°F Insert an oven safe remote thermometer into the center of the roast and program the thermometer to alert at 115°F Place the roast on a rack over a foil lined baking pan. Slow roast in the oven uncovered until the thermometer alerts. Turn the temperature of the oven down to 175F and continue roasting. The idea is that this tough cut of meat will become most tender if slow roasted with an internal temp under 122F as long as possible.
- Change the alert temperature of the thermometer without opening the oven to 130°F When the alert is reached remove the roast from the oven and let rest inside an unsealed gallon sized ziploc baggie. This will capture the juices while resting. The roast will be pink throughout. This is how it should look at this point.
- When the roast is room temperature, seal the baggie and place in the refrigerator over night. The cold temperature will help enable thin slicing.
- Reserving the juices in the ziploc baggie, slice 3.2 oz of beef for each sandwich to be made. (I purchased a Harbor Freight deli slicer for $65 on Ebay). Heat the beef broth or consomme in a saucepan until simmering and add in the reserved juices. When the sauce is simmering place the cut beef on a skimmer and dunk into the hot broth for 30 to 45 seconds. This will finish cook the beef, add the flavor of Roy's sandwiches without toughening the meat. Anything over a minute will toughen the meat. A Roy's employee acknowledged this is how they finished the beef.
- Place the meat directly from the broth on an untoasted bun bottom. Spoon a tablespoon of broth onto the top bun. Add barbecue sauce and horsey sauce.
