      As someone who went to the US for 2 months from the UK and went to most of the main fast food places, trust me you're not missing out at all. The only place that actually left a good impression on me was In N Out, and a large part of that was because of how comparatively bad the other places are.
      The plus of these videos is you can take the concepts from fast food items and actually execute them well w better ingredients.

    My mother loves Arby's, the Beef 'N Cheddar is her favorite sandwich, so for mothers day today I made this sandwich following your recipe. HUGE success! I did alter the cheese sauce, making a beer cheese with aged provolone and smoke Gouda. And sautéed Peppers, Mushrooms and onions to make more of a Philly cheese steak variation. But the Buns and meat I followed your recipe to a T, and it was amazing! Thank you very much for this video and making this mothers day a great one. I hope I made Papa proud.

    Okay I did it for y'all...
    This is gonna take about 60 minutes or so to prep (if you're an amateur and wannabe like me... and honestly I'd probably take even longer), somewhere around 180 minutes to cook, and your inactive time is somewhere around 2.25 to 13.25 hours, meaning this recipe might take a good 17 hours and 15 minutes total...
    To be fair, the vast majority of that time is doing literally nothing, so... I mean... it's really not that long at all if you think about it.
    Also, it makes 8 sandwiches, but you're *definitely* gonna have leftovers.
    Roast Beef:
    -8 lbs prime rib roast
    -50g (0.5 cup) finely ground coffee
    -28g (3 tbsps) kosher salt
    -Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
    -Lots of fresh Rosemary
    -Several shallots, halved
    -Whole coriander seeds
    -Any other aromatics you want
    Caramelized Onions:
    -2 medium sweet onions, peeled and diced
    -2 tbsps butter
    -Salt and sugar to taste (more salt than sugar)
    Onion Rolls:
    -295g (1.25 cups) water, 100°F/38°C
    -12g (1 tbsp) instant yeast
    -612g (3.25 cups) bread flour
    -14g (2 tsps) fine sea salt
    -2 large eggs (room temperature)
    -42g (3 tbsps) unsalted butter, softened and divided into 3 separate tbsps
    -The caramelized onions (above), COOLED to room temp
    Arby's Sauce:
    -311g (1 cup) ketchup
    -45g (3 tbsps) hot sauce
    -16g (1 tbsp) brown sugar
    -8g (2 tsps) garlic powder
    -12g (1 tbsp) worcestershire sauce
    -19g (1.5 tbsps) water
    Cheese Sauce:
    -28g (2 tbsps) unsalted butter
    -23g (2 tbsps) all purpose flour
    -240ml (1 cup) whole milk
    -135g (1.5 cups) freshly shredded cheddar cheese
    -Salt and pepper to taste
    1.5 hours before you decide to make these... or, even better, the night before... grind your coffee very finely and mix with the salt and pepper. Rub this on your rib roast... and you want a *thick* layer, here, covering every inch. Place it on a cooling rack set in a baking sheet and let it rest at room temperature for an hour or overnight in the fridge*.
    About one hour before you're ready to roast, preheat your oven to 450°F/230°C. When ready to cook, line the bottom of a roasting pan with fresh rosemary, shallots, olive oil, coriander seeds, and any other fresh, whole aromatics you want. Place your beef onto that aromatic Garden of Eatin' you created, place in your preheated oven, and roast for 15 minutes. Drop the temp to 325°F/162°C, and roast for 11 minutes per pound of beef (88 minutes for the 8-lb roast called for here), or until the internal temperature reaches 120°F/48°C.
    Let the meat rest for a minimum of 20 minutes... but probably longer...^
    While your oven's cooling down (shouldn't take long at all), take your onions, cut their tops off, slice them in half, and give 'em a medium dice. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the onions, season with salt and a little sugar, cover, and caramelize for about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
    While the onions are caramelizing, mix the yeast into the water and set aside.
    In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the flour and salt and mix until combined. Attach the dough hook to your stand mixer, attach the bowl, and begin mixing on low speed. Add the yeast water and the eggs and let mix for 5 minutes or until everything is nicely incorporated into a smooth little man.
    Add the softened butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, then continue to mix on medium low speed until the dough is combined, smooth, and beautiful. Add the COOLED caramelized onions (cooled... don't make Papa angry) and mix until incorporated.
    Turn out the dough, work it into a ball, grease a bowl (ideally around 1.5 to 2 times the size of the dough), place the dough in the bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise at room temp until chubby, about an hour or so (depending on the temperature of your room). Partway into this rise would be a good time to preheat your oven to 375°F/190°C.
    Once risen, punch the dough down and divide into 8 even pieces (110g to 130g each). Shape each piece into a ball. Place each ball onto a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet, cover with another baking sheet, and proof for 25 minutes at room temperature. Then brush each one with an egg wash, "optionally" top with everything bagel seasoning (we all know it's not really optional), and toss them in your preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until beautifully golden brown. Finish them off by brushing them with melted butter.
    For the Arby's sauce, combine all the sauce ingredients in a small saucepan, whisk, bring to a simmer over medium heat, and let it reduce for about 5 minutes.
    For the cheese... sauce... in a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and add the flour. Cook for 30 seconds while whisking, then very slowly whisk in the milk. Keep heating and whisking until it thickens, then add the shredded cheese. Turn off the heat and keep whisking until velvety smooth. Then season to taste with salt and pepper.
    To assemble, grab a bun, cut it in half, and toast it. Not toasting it would be... bad. It would be bad. Don't skip toasting it. Don't make Papa cry.
    Slice the beef as thinly as you possibly can.
    On the bottom of your TOASTED bun, spread some "Arby's sauce", layer and fold as much beef as you want on there, add a generous spoonful or two of the cheese sauce, and crown your king... with the TOASTED top of your TOASTED bun.
    (Also... I added some notes of my own:)
    *You could go crazy with the beef and age it a bit, too... 2 days in the fridge... 3 days... or maybe you got one a' them there fancy dry-aging machines and can throw it in there for a while.
    ^Look you're gonna wanna let your oven cool, and you need to let the dough rise for an hour and rest for 25 minutes, so... you'll have to coordinate all this so everything is timed optimally.
    Good luck.
    And don't forget to toast that damn bun!

      @@fleshymammal5332 Everything but the beef is pretty cheap. The prime grade beef can run anywhere from $12 to $20 per pound (or more... depending on the quality and where you get it).
      Fine sea salt doesn't have to be expensive if you know where to get some. We've got a massive international market that has all kinds of sea salt brands at various prices within a very large range. So just look in the right places.
      The rest is stuff you likely already have, and if you don't, is cheap to buy.
      And no, you don't need a stand mixer to make the bread. It's certainly more convenient, but a whisk, spoon, and your hands will do just fine. Just be aware that it's gonna be a work-out if you do use your hands.
      And if you make this with less meat (2 to 4 pounds, instead), you don't need a roasting pan... a deep 9x13 baking pan will work just fine.

      Keep in mind how much meat you end up cooking! Ideally you could just as well find onion buns that taste good at a local grocery store, and if you aren't making the buns you're only making the meat, which judging from that big slab you'd have enough for a dozen sandwiches or more. So it's sort of comparing 'going back and forth to buy 12+ fast food sandwiches each at different times' to 'cooking a bunch of meat/carmelized onions at once and assembling the rest from ingredients you bought'.

      For a rib roast? Assuming that was Choice grade (he said "prime rib", but that's also confusingly the name of a trimmed rib roast), and he got a good deal, and it's Texas, so meat is life, maybe $50. But probably more, maybe even $100+. I can get pretty decent quality bone-in rib roasts for under $50 during the time of year when they're popular and on sale everywhere, though I'm usually only buying a 3-bone roast, and his looks like a 4-bone.

      Same here......just once.....30 years ago. Roy Rogers used to be fairly decent (for fast food), but I think they are long gone.....just like Roy.

      @Evan Scammell : Nobody who eats at Arby's is even following Josh. He needs to forget about crap & just cater to those of us who are willing to put effort into good food.

    Arby's corporate should watch this video. Like, even they would be like "What the hell is that restaurant doing?" when seeing that sad thing you got from the drive through.

    Anyone else notice how the diced onions are suddenly sliced onions when caramelised in the pan? 😂

    I relate all too much to that onion bun. As an Asían, I too was given life and then punched down.

    Damn bro, you go all out! I love it. Wish I wasn't too lazy to go to that extreme, or drop that much cash. I'm thinking of using some store bought onion buns(thoasted with butter on the grill of course) and some good hi quality sliced roast beef from the deli placed in the crock pot with some beef bone broth for a while just to heat up and get juicy.

    All I am missing is your recipe for Horsey Sauce, my dude.

      IIRC wouldn't it be just horseradish and mayo, with a few seasonings? Salt, a pinch of sugar, pepper, garlic, parsley if I had to guess.
