Before I had even made the pot roast I knew that my first use for the leftovers would have to be pot roast sandwiches smothered in the tasty sauce from the braising. I think I might have been looking forward to the leftover sandwiches more than the actual pot roast itself. I could not see making this sandwich without a melted gooey cheese and I ended up going with some swiss. To melt the cheese I assembled part of the sandwich and placed it under the broiler with the cheese on top. To finish the sandwich off I was thinking about a horseradish and mayonnaise sauce. Horseradish goes well with beef and I thought that it would add a nice bite to the sandwich that would help balance out the cheese and gravy. The sandwiches turned out a little messy but they were so good!! Tender moist braised beef in a tasty gravy with gooey melted cheese is such a great combo. I also enjoyed the horseradish and mayonnaise flavour combo and it worked really well in the sandwich. I will be eating a few more of these sandwiches before the leftovers are gone.

That does it. Pack your bags and move to Oregon so I can sample all of your yummy food. This sammy is just divine. YUM!
Mmm…ooey-gooey cheese! The flavors of this sandwich sounds (and looks) like a great combo.
What a great blog- your food looks fantastic. It’s not often that every post on a blog is something I want to make!
You should check out Dinner with Julie. She did a post for a pulled pork panini that I think could be adapted to work for pot roast very easily.
Your sandwich looks great – don’t get me wrong – but her sandwich is really over the top!
That is why you have left over, right? Mayonnaise and horseradish sounds so good Kevin.
Cheers,
Elra
I say the messier the better! I know that had to have been good 🙂
Ya gotta be kidding me!!! This looks fabulous!!
This looks super easy and I love how you always use the leftovers. Smart cook!

Hi, Kevin.

Hope you stop by our blog again – I’ll definitely be keeping up with your’s.

Looks amazing! Love the addition of horseradish!
I always love when you make something to really use it for left overs or some other purpose. This looks good much better then what I’m going to have for lunch.
That picture is something else!
Ooeey, gooey, lishious! I like how you used up the leftovers.
Oh Gracious – this should be sinful!
Ummm… Wow. I’m not a big fan of pot roast, but that sandwich makes it seem worthwhile to make one!
oh yum!! great idea! i’m always sick of leftover pot roast but this is a great use!
OMG Kevin! That looks to die for! Grumpy and I both would be in heaven with that sandwich!!! I want some!
Now that’s my kind of sandwich – delicious.
What a kick ass sandwich!! Oozes yumminess!!!
bless you, that is one decadent sandwich! LOOKS AMAZING.
You had me at horseradish!
Altough I don’t like mayo, I sub in ff sour cream and it does the trick.
Thanks for another great recipe!
Crunchy bread, tender beef and melty cheese…how can you go wrong?
It’s only 10:24 in the morning and this sandwich is calling my name. It looks wonderful.
What a tasty looking sandwich!
If you ask me, the leftovers from pot roast are the absolute best part — simply because you can put together amazing sammiches like this one. *drool*
That bread looks exquisite, all toasted up like that! Marvelous sandwich.
Oh my Kevin that looks sensational. I can almost imagine it in my mouth. Goodness!
wow that looks amazing. I be it was so good!
I made a pot roast a while back and used leftovers for sandwiches too…I was looking forward to the sandwiches more than the pot roast too, lol.
I love your toppings…mmm…this looks awesome Kevin!!
whoa! Kevin way to go! Smothered in perfectness!
I’ve never had a pot roast sandwich before, Kevin, but this looks awesome! 🙂
Talk about decadent! That looks awesome.
I love leftovers and this looks like the perfect sandwich for your pot roast.
This looks even better than last night’s pot roast!
I know I say this all the time, but seriously, this is definitely the best ever.
what an amazing use of the leftover pot roast! the sandwich looks delicious…
Great way to use up the leftover pot roast of the the day Kevin. Ut amazes me how you can be so inventive day after day!!
OMG that looks sooooo good! I can totally see making a roast JUST so you can have this for leftovers. Heck, we have a wedge of jarlsberg cheese that’s “starting to sprout” a little in the fridge. I can see making a roast JUST to have leftovers for sandwiches JUST to use that cheese!
Salivating. Like for real.
Cheesy and messy is the description of a sandwich that’s hard to resist! I’ve mad pot roast sandwiches, but they don’t compare to this one!
Kevin I die with this sandwhich, weel always you tempting me with your sandwchichs Look wonderful! Gloria
OMG, I’m slobbering all over my keyboard just looking at that sarnie. Yum!
I am making a note to myself to cook a pot roast, real soon.
now that’s the kind of lunch i want to have!
OMG, those sandwiches look incredible! I have always maintained that the leftover sandwiches are reason enough to cook a roast 🙂
dude, this looks amazing! I have to make this… yum!
I made your recipe for the pot roast with the coffee gravy using deer round steaks and it turned out delicious! The next day I made this sandwich with the leftovers and again it was wonderful, the leftovers won't last much longer! thanks for your recipes!
