While I don’t doubt that my husband loves me, I sometimes worry that he might love Arby’s even more. He is their number one biggest fan. While I don’t hold quite the same passion for the sandwich chain, I can appreciate that their sauce game is on point. From their Horsey Sauce to their Three Pepper Sauce, it’s allll good. (I am generally the person really taking my time at the condiment station before we sit down to our table.) But none are as good as their signature sweet and tangy Arby’s Sauce. The great news is that instead of stockpiling packets on your next trip, you can make your own at home and you can slather it on so much more than roast beef sandwiches.
I have more good news for you – Arby’s Sauce is really easy to make. It’s just a matter of stirring together a few ingredients and letting them simmer until they’ve become one entity. So what’s in this stuff? It’s ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, a bit of tabasco, and some onion powder and garlic powder.
Yes, it’s barbecue sauce, more or less, but it’s one with the perfect balance and zing and since it’s a bit thinner it’s as great for dipping as it is drizzled over a shaved roast beef sandwich.
Chicken nuggets, potato wedges, french fries… if you can dip it it’s fair game. And it turns out this stuff is also great on turkey sandwiches or used to dress up a basic chicken breast.
Roast beef sandwiches are just the beginning, in other words. Arby’s Sauce is great on so many things and so easy to make that it’s a no brainer to keep a jar in your fridge at all times. And besides, a jar is so much easier than storing all of those packets you’ve hoarded!
Stir ketchup, water, corn syrup, molasses, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, steak sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg together in a saucepan over medium heat until smooth; bring to a boil and immediately remove from heat to cool completely.
Some popular sauces similar to Arby's Sauce include barbecue sauce, steak sauce, and honey mustard. These sauces share a similar sweet and tangy flavor profile that complements a variety of dishes.
Arby's Sauce is kind of like ketchup and kind of like barbeque sauce, but it technically isn't either. It's made with tomatoes and vinegar in the same manner as ketchup and barbeque sauce are, but it differs just enough that the sauce stands on its own instead of tasting like a repackaged ketchup or barbeque sauce.
On the other end of the spectrum, you have Arby's Sauce. This one is a tomato and vinegar-based sauce — almost like a cross between ketchup and barbecue. Arby's Sauce has a signature taste without being too far removed from what customers already know and love, making it unique and craveable.
1. Worst: Crispy Chicken Club Wrap. You might think that a chicken wrap is a better call than Arby's red meat sandwiches—but unfortunately, that's not the case. Made with crispy battered chicken, bacon, and cheese, the Crispy Chicken Club Wrap racks up major calories, fat, and sodium.
Arby's Sauce (their name sake) is a staple condiment at Arby's restaurants created in the 1970s. It is a tangy and slightly sweet sauce that pairs perfectly with their roast beef sandwiches. It's a cross of ketchup and BBQ sauce, so is made with a blend of tomatoes, vinegar, and spices.
May be cooked in the same oil as menu items that contain Egg, Milk, and Fish (where available). Frying Oil: Corn Oil, Soybean Oil, Canola Oil, Hydrogenated Soybean Oil, with Dimethylpolysiloxane (to reduce foaming).
Don't be confused; Red Ranch Sauce isn't related to ranch dressing at all. Think of it as a less spicy version of the original Arby Sauce. It has the same ketchup base with garlic, onion, and Worcestershire sauce seasoning but omits the cayenne pepper.
