This is a sandwich to remember, simple yet so complex and special...

The BEST Homemade Roast Beef Sandwiches...
What Kind Of Beef Is Best?
You can splurge and get a center-cut beef tenderloin roast, also called a filet of beef, or filet roast, that runs around $22 per pound.
But I found a less expensive option…New York Strip Steak!
New York Strip steak tied into a roast by the butcher is a cost-effective option for this recipe and is amazing. It’s up to you, I found that the strip steak was well priced and just as delicious!
- New York Strip Steak Benefits – cost-effective, tender, and full of flavor
- Filet Tenderloin Benefits – more expensive, very tender, a premium cut
Creamy Horseradish Sauce Is EASY!
- In a glass prep bowl, use a small rubber spatula and mix sour cream, prepared horseradish, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, sea salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce until well combined.
- Keep covered and chilled in the fridge, will keep for 2-3 weeks.
Prepared Horseradish - Is sold in grocery stores and is made with horseradish root, vinegar, water, and salt. You can make it at home as well.
Horseradish Sauce - Is made at home or in restaurants and combines prepared horseradish with cream, sour cream, or mayonnaise, and other ingredients to add flavor and make creamy for using on dishes like prime rib, steak, or roast beef sandwiches.
