Is there a product that is sold in the average supermarket that would be
similar to the "beef" in an Arby's roast beef sandwich? |

That's the problem with this newsgroup; if a question doesn't come from one of your cronies, it isn't taken seriously. I like Arby's, and I don't have one nearby. I don't want to have to sample every brand of pseudo-meat at the market to find something that tastes similar. I had hoped to rely on the experience here so that wouldn't be necessary; I guess that was too much to ask for. |

The people who read rec.food.cooking tend to prefer the real thing, not some fake version of roast beef. |

On Sept 6, you wrote: "Interesting; I think that's the same stuff they put into turkeys to make them "self-basting". I don't like it in turkeys, so seeing a good steak ruined would bug me even more." Yet, according to what Dave Bugg just posted, Arby's "beef" "Contains up to 9.0% of a Self-Basting Solution of Water, Salt, Sodium Phosphate." Wow, "I think that's the same stuff they put into turkeys to make them 'self-basting.'" --Bryan |

Probably pre-packaged roast beef if your local supermarkets carry it. Next time you go shopping ask at the customer service or deli counter. |

Even the OP relates it to "pseudo-meat." >From a website: Arby's seems to be a re-occurring subject of ridicule on the animated series The Simpsons. * In the episode Das Bus, Bart Simpson's classmate Terri, (who has a twin sister, Sherri), once stated, "I'm so hungry I could eat at Arby's!" after being stranded on an island. After this was said, other children stranded on the island responded, "Wow, she must be really hungry." and "Ewww!" * In A Milhouse Divided, Kirk Van Houten replied "Just throw it over the fence, let Arby's worry about it!" when asked what to do with a dead possum. * In Old Yeller Belly, Marge Simpson said to Lisa Simpson, in reference to Lisa complaining about something outrageous they both saw on television, "People do crazy things in commercials. Like eat at Arby's." * In Treehouse of Horror XVII, after eating a green-alien-blob that tries to escape his mouth, Homer says, "If I can keep down Arby's, I can keep down you." source-- http://www.answers.com/topic/arby-s?cat=biz-fin > > -- > Blinky --Bryan |

Sure, but Arbys hasn't had real meat for years. I remember when I was in college there was a nearby Arbys where you could see them slicing real meat which kids who worked there said was real meat roasted in the store. Some time after that they began using space meat. Even their "horsey sauce" can't be called horseradish sauce because apparently there is some space product which is cheaper and can be stored for 20 years which doesn't contain horseradish. |

I was referring to "Roast beef would be a roasted piece of beef. " Roast beef could also be a slice of roasted beef. Aw, never mind. "-) I think it's maybe Arby's sweet sour sauce that has no recognizable food item listed in the ingredients. Like fruit juice (thickened for 'sauce' consistency).

There's a place in St. Paul that people older than me say has meat pretty much like the "old Arby's." In case anyone's in the area and interested (that's St. Paul in Minnesota USA, by the way): <http://www.citypages.com/dish/detail.asp?CID=14472> It was a little bland for my liking, but I'm not as much of a beef head as I was when I was younger. The quality seemed high. Mike Beede |

After reading Dave Bugg's post, I imagine it might even be "better"(?) than the Arby's ingredients for its "beeph", but I don't know. Spouse would buy that brand from time to time, but I don't. Spouse isn't picky, but I am <G>. Hmmm . . . I tried to google for "buttig meat", but I didn't get the information I'd hoped for. I probably spelled it incorrectly. The "Buttig Meats" I know about come in a plastic bag in the prepackaged coldcuts section at the grocery store. Sky P.S.

That makes me feel sooo much better ![]() early 20's I'd buy the Carl Buddig stuff because I was broke and it was cheap. I think it was 4 for a dollar back then. But then, I also bought 5/$1 Kroger brand chicken pot pies. Would those frozen Steak-Um things substitute for Arby's beef? Do they even still sell Steak-Um's? Jill |

My buddy has a commercial refrigeration business and I get to see various process lines including meat packing. There is a local plant that makes a "Steak-um" type product. They run one version under their own name which is made from real meat that they trim on site, freeze, slice and package. They make another version for the big box mart and famous industrial restaurants that is sliced from blocks of pink looking material. A few days before processing they pull the blocks out of the low temp freezer and put them into a cooler that is just below freezing to warm up. I asked about the pink color and they said they buy the blocks from some other processor and it has hearts and other byproducts mixed in. |

Actually, you don't have to buy them because they'll usually give them to you free. Ask your grocer for "cardboard boxes" and take them home and cut pieces to the size you want. |

On second thought I'll bet it would work if it was soaked in the "enhancement solution" . |

Isn't it amazing how they get the colour just right. From a distance it looks like beef. Up close it looks like dyed balogna. Is the average consumer so foolish that they would rather save a few pennies and get faux roast beef than to pay a little extra and get real beef? |

They can get things cheaper if buy one thing, one style in bulk than if they offer a selection. I am happy to hear that more and more people are refusing to shop there. My brother used to shop there once in a while, but now he just goes in there to check their prices and then goes to places that promise to match the lowest price so he gets things in other stores at Walmart prices. |

I thought it was disgusting. There was an Arbys on the same block as our office. It was next to a strip mall with a German deli where I could get a real roast beef sandwich and a soft drink for less than the Arbys "beef" sandwich. If the deli sandwich was not enough you could buy a second one, and the two of them were still cheaper than one at Arbys. |

One thing I do like at Arby's (unless they've changed in the past year) is their chicken breast sandwich. It's actually a chicken breast. Probably full of brining solution, but I like them anyway... -- Jani in WA |

Arby's is pretty awful, but they are also pretty cheap. Fairly recently, they had regular sandwiches 5/$5, and most recently 5/$5.55. --Bryan |

Check out my post further up in this thread > about how it is made. I did. I don't eat at Arby's. Have not in years. Last time I tried it, their beef tasted like pure salt. Overwhelmed any trace of meat flavor. Might as well take spoonfulls straight out of the salt shaker. Crap substitute for crap? What's the point? :-) I'll roast a beef if I want it or make thin sliced rare steak sandwiches. -- Peace, Om Remove both _ (underscores) to validate gmail e-mails.
