Y'all to harsh on Arby's. The peach cobbler roll they have going is killer. Get yourself a double beef and cheddar; it's surprisingly substantial!

I ordered a Beef n Cheddar yesterday and it was... wrong. It was like they put some other type of meat on there that tasted similar but the texture was way thicker...
Usually the roast beef is so thin you could eat it without teeth. This was like, pulled pork or something...
... and I still ate it. Love me some Arby's.

You probably got their pulled pork by mistake, that's their promotion right now.

Mozzarella sticks are so damn good dipped in horsey sauce.
One of the best things Arby's does is have horsey and Arby's sauce on tap with their ketchup so if you dine in you can go to town

Their Mozza sticks are the best in the fast food realm.

Hard agree. When I'm craving a mozzarella stick it's Arby's that I'm thinking of. I've not had one that has even come close tbh, more people need to batter their cheese sticks.

u/PostMatureBaby 9h ago
I've asked here what they were and I think the consensus was McCain makes them under their Golden Crisp label or something. Never seen them in a frozen section but it's possible it's made by them as a private label brand as well.

Arby’s really isn’t bad. It’s their own fault they have a bad rep though. Up until 10 years or so ago, 98% of their marketing was about their roast beef. The roast beef is not very good (especially where I live because we have a regional fast food chain that has significantly better).
Their fries are amazing, the cheese sticks are really good, their Reuben is surprisingly good for fast food, as is the Greek gyro. The fish sandwiches are just as good as other fast food. The cordon bleu sandwich and mac n cheese are pretty good too.

Call me crazy but I love dipping their mozzarella sticks in their Branco berry sauce. It’s the sauce they give you with their jalapeño poppers.

u/Big-Sheepherder-6134 8h ago
Kind of a bad reflection on Arby’s that you have to rely on sauces for the actual food to taste good, right? Would you eat a roast beef or cheese stick there with nothing on it?

u/PostMatureBaby 8h ago edited 8h ago
I'm what you'd consider a "wet guy" i want the slop/gravy/sauce/goo/etc. on all the things. I have no issues eating that stuff as it's given to me.
Fries are best in mayo, imo so i want the horsey sauce to dip in as well.
isn't that a lot of fast food though? without condiments it's usually worse
Also, sometimes it's part of it. Even the most quality piled high smoked meat sandwich at the best deli ever still requires Keen's hot mustard

It really does make their beef sandwiches better. I found something even better than that when whipping up a late night snack to soak up alcohol one night, though. Maruchan chili ramen! Something about that spicy broth just meshes perfectly with the roast beef. It's way better for dipping than their au jus. Now I usually grab an extra sandwich at Arby's to take home just for that purpose.

Arby’s is the shit imo. Nothing beats a beef & cheddar with curly fries and some extra Arby’s sauce.

The sauce on a Beef and Cheddar is red ranch. I always order some extra on the side to dip my sandwich and fries in.

About Arby’s, I have been to really good ones and really really bad ones. Most fast food is only as good as how the local franchise holder treats, trains, pays, and schedules their staff, plus special modifiers for really good cooks with exceptional work ethics.

I've always liked Arby's, and I blame most of the hate they get on this ONE Simpson's joke.
That said, they're just as overpriced as most fastfood these days. That's my only complaint. Their meat is essentially just cooked lunchmeat, it's not worth $7 for a sandwich.

I think Arby's is great. Sadly, there aren't any where I live now. I'd have to drive at least an hour to get my two beef and cheddars along with an order of curly fries. I'm not driving that far and back for any type of food.

Arbys has good food but way overpriced. Nothing there is under 7$. Service is ussually on par except with their app they begin preparing the food the second the order goes in. Last time I was there I ordered a milkshake, by the time I got there 15m later the shake was a melted mess.

I love Arby’s when I’m in the mood for it. I know it’s not going to be fancy deli roast beef but it slaps for fast food. Some times I’ll do a generic copy cat at home with Hillshire Roast Beef. Curly fries are definitely bomb. And when they have it during Lent, their fish sandwich kills it too!

I like quite a few things at Arby’s, but I recently tried their Pulled Pork sandwich and it wasn’t very good. The BBQ sauce that comes with it is good, but the pork itself was fairly low flavored, at least compared to homemade and a majority of pulled pork I’ve had.
But that’s the only thing that I’ve found lackluster. I wish they’d bring back their Pork Belly sandwich - THAT was amazing!
