Sandwich Components

Cheese Sauce

Method

Preparing the Cheese Sauce

  1. 1

    Melt the Butter

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until it is bubbly.

  2. 2

    Add Flour

    Add the all-purpose flour to the melted butter and whisk continuously for about 1-2 minutes to create a roux.

  3. 3

    Add Milk

    Gradually pour in the milk while whisking to avoid lumps. Continue to whisk until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese and Seasoning

    Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 5

    Toast the Buns

    Lightly toast the brioche buns on a skillet or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Layer the Roast Beef

    On the bottom half of each toasted brioche bun, add a generous portion of the thinly sliced roast beef.

  3. 7

    Add Cheese Sauce

    Pour a generous amount of the prepared cheese sauce over the roast beef.

  4. 8

    Top with Onion Rings

    Place a handful of crispy onion rings on top of the cheese sauce.

  5. 9

    Complete the Sandwich

    Place the top half of the brioche bun on the sandwich to complete it.
