The Best Bread For The Perfect Roast Beef Sandwich

From chewy rolls to crusty sourdoughs, there are a couple of things to consider while you're browsing for the perfect bread loaf to go with your roast beef sandwich.
A firm bread is key for a roast beef sandwich. Kaiser rolls are popular if you like pillowy breads, or for a loaf-style, rye bread with its crunchy crust will do the trick.
If you like your bread with a bit of a taste to it, go for sourdough bread. Its mild tang can complement the savory beef nicely without overwhelming its flavor.
If there's an artisanal bakery near you, give them a visit. Though a bit pricier, specialty breads can bring your roast beef sandwich to a whole new level.
A crispy baguette is an excellent carrier for your roast beef if you like your sandwich with texture to it. Slice into the loaf and stuff it Subway-style with your juicy beef.
Italian ciabatta has crunch, and an interior with air bubbles, which soak up the melted cheese or dipping sauce, while the crust keeps the cheese and sauce from soaking through.
