Posted by hoof hearted on 15 Jan 2025 at 11:42AMHopefully this counts even though it's not cooking the roast beef from scratch. Because its just me, I like to buy roast beef from the deli sliced thin for this easy sandwich recipe.
cheddar cheese sauce:
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 1/2 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 1/4 cups milk
1 1/2 teaspoons dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 ounces shredded sharp cheddar cheese
roast beef, thinly sliced
3 sesame topped burger buns
To make the cheddar cheese sauce:
Place a pot over medium heat and melt butter. Once butter has melted, add flour and whisk until no lumps remain. Whisk milk, mustard and salt into mixture and continue to whisk together until mixture is smooth and no lumps remain, and mixture has slightly thickened. Remove mixture from heat and stir in grated cheese, small handfuls at a time, until all cheese has been added and cheese sauce is smooth.
assembly:
Stack a third of the roast beef onto the bottom bun of each burger. Pour a generous amount of cheese sauce over each sandwich and gently press bun tops onto each sandwich. Serve immediately. Then try and tell me your mouth isn't happy. 😋 And yes, because it's so good I eat all three of them in one sitting lol. Occasionally I will toast the tops of the buns in the broiler before adding the roast beef and cheese sauce.
