Note

For best results, ensure the roast beef is chilled slightly before slicing to achieve thin, even slices.

You can substitute the eye of round with any lean cooked beef roast you have on hand.

If you prefer a crispier roll, toast the bun lightly before assembling the sandwich.

This sandwich is best served immediately while the cheese is still melted.
