Can I double/halve this recipe?
Yup! This recipe is very easy to double or halve to fit your family’s needs.
Can I use any kind of cheese sauce?
Of course, use your favorite! I like to use Rico’s because it is a more mild flavor.

Nope! You can use your favorite hamburger bun. Arbys also traditionally uses sesame seed buns for some of their sandwiches.
You can also now find Arbys sauce in grocery stores. It is not exactly what they use on their Beef and Cheddars because they use a red ranch sauce but it will work in a pinch!
