BEEF 'N' CHEDDAR SANDWICH (ARBYS KOPYKAT)



2 pounds boneless beef round roast, (have butcher slice it into 1/8" slices)
1/2 cup reduced-sodium beef broth
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
8 onion hamburger buns, buttered and toasted

CHEESE SAUCE
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1 tablespoon hot sauce (optional)
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups grated cheddar cheese

In the pressure cooking pot, combine the beef, broth, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Lock the lid in place. Select High Pressure and 10 minutes cook time.

When cook time ends, turn off the pressure cooker and allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then finish with a quick release. When the valve drops, carefully remove the lid.

While the beef cooks, in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Sprinkle in the flour and cook until bubbling. Gradually whisk in the milk, a little at a time, until the sauce is smooth and thick. Whisk in hot sauce and salt. Add the cheddar cheese a handful at a time. Stir until melted and smooth. Remove from heat.

To serve, top each bun with meat and ladle cheese sauce on top.

CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS (CRACKLE BARREL)


8 Servings

2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch salt
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup buttermilk
6-8 cups chicken broth
3 cups cooked chicken

Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. 

Cut the butter into the dry ingredients with a fork or pastry blender. 

Stir in the milk, mixing with a fork until the dough forms a ball.

Heavily flour a work surface. 

Roll the dough out thin with a heavily floured rolling pin. Dip your cutter in flour and cut the dumplings in squares about 2x2-inches each. It’s okay for them not to be exact. Just eye ball it. Some will be bigger, some smaller, and some might be shaped funny.

Use the floured spatula to put them on a heavily floured plate. Just keep flouring between the layers of dumplings.

Bring broth to a boil. Drop the dumplings in one at a time, stirring while you add them. The extra flour on them will help thicken the broth.

Cook them for about 15 to 20 minutes or until they don't taste doughy.

Add the cooked chicken to the pot and serve.
