It's spelled roast beef, but pronounced roast'd be'f

However it doesn't refer to roasted beef, which is something different altogether.

I worked at Arby's as a teen and it gets entirely too much poo poo. The roast beef is actually whole muscle beef that is seasoned and cooked for like 16 hours on site, and sliced to order on the line. The quality of the food is really good (for fast food).

It's tasty and you get a ton of it. I think it's a casualty of comedians using it as a punchline because the name sounds kind of funny

There's layers to the myth, really. The beef comes in a marinade pouch that really does look kind of unpleasant and gelatinous at a cursory glance, but the same is true for any chain fast food chicken that isn't breaded. But also, a lot of that flak started coming up as noise when other chains were getting roasted (beef) for other dead cow things, like the old Jack in the Box kangaroo meat thing.

Granted, it's also a fast food place which means even if the corporate method isn't actually play doh meat like the urban legends say, your particular local chain might be a cesspit of disease.

The unclear question is, though: is the roast beef roasted in this cooking process?

that has to be fake and just too much of a lovely hollandaise sauce or something but I adore the idea of blasting oysters under a salamander or something to melt the cheese and then putting them on the ice bed, so you have cooked oysters that are covered by cold cheese, the absolute worst possible application of both.

Yeah, I like it a lot. My only problem with the RB is that its quality drops of fast as it cools.

Also they're like one of two places I can get consistently good fast food mozz sticks, and the rest of the food at the other place isn't great.

Reminds me of people who are aghast when they find out that places like Dunkin Donuts get premade donuts shipped to them that they put in the oven. Like, did people seriously think that chain donut places are making everything from scratch every day?

I blame it on the fact that so many people don't cook anymore that they have no idea how long things actually take to make.

Dunkin’ used to make them fresh in the shops back in the day, and it was a big part of their advertising. Of course that was when there wasn’t 30 shops per square mile.
