Roast beef (deli)
Savory and beefy, with a light pepper or seasoning crust depending on the style.
Lens analyzedDeli roast beef is beef roasted, cooled, and thinly sliced for sandwiches, sold either cut to order at the deli counter or prepackaged in the cold case. Seasoning and doneness vary a lot between brands and counters.
Where it comes from
Sliced deli roast beef became a lunch-counter fixture across North America as delis expanded beyond whole roasts to offer sandwich meats sliced fresh on demand.
Buying it
Ask for slices cut to order where possible, since freshly sliced meat tastes noticeably better than meat that's been sitting pre-sliced in the case.
Storing it
Refrigerate it in its wrap or a sealed container and use it within the days noted on the package.
Keeps about 5 days in the fridge.
