Arby's Pizza Sliders - Limited Time Offer - Review


I have liked Arby's other sliders, so I decided to try out their current limited-time offer of a Pizza Slider (where I live they have a promotion for $1 per slider, but that can vary).

The slider is on roll topped with Pepperoni, Provolone Cheese, Genoa Salami and Marinara with garlic.   As advertised, it has the flavor of a pizza except on soft bread instead of a pizza crust. 

I was concerned when I saw it that it might be too much bread to sandwich ratio, but it wasn't.  It was filling and delicious and was good for an afternoon snack to keep me going when I wasn't going to have time to eat until much later.  

Pros:
  • Has the flavor of pizza in a small sandwich.
  • Easy to eat on the go.
  • Was very filling 
  • Fewer calories than a full-sized sandwich if you want something a bit lighter.


Cons:
  • 300 calories for a small sandwich - 
  • Can give you indigestion.  If you have issues with acid reflux you want to be sure you have meds with you or you might want to pick a different option.

$1 Sliders at Arbys - Limited Time Only


For a limited time only, Arby's has $1 Sliders in six different types where I live:
  • Ham and Cheese
  • Jalapeno Roast Beef
  • Turkey and Cheese
  • Roast Beef and Cheese
  • Corned Beef and Cheese
  • Chicken and Cheese
The website indicates another option, Buffalo Chicken which has Parmesan peppercorn Ranch Sauce and a Spicy Buffalo Sauce but it was not offered where I live, but might be elsewhere.


The meat comes up a bun that is more like the texture and size of dinner roll and comes in an open box.       


The sandwiches have a higher than standard bread to meat ratio and they are more filling than they look. 

One would make for an after-school or work sandwich if you had activities and wouldn't be having dinner until later and two are enough for dinner on the go.

Like with most of their sandwiches you will need to be sure to ask for the condiment that you want. The only drawback is that it is hard to get the packet to come out evenly on the bun and after you splooge it out on the bun and put it on top of the sandwich and swish it around a bit so it is more evenly distributed.
