To celebrate the return of Arby’s REAL Country-Style Rib Sandwich, the brand has once again teamed up with rap artist Pusha T on the new REAL Country-Style Rib Roast track and music video.
The new REAL Country-Style Rib Roast track aims to celebrate the Texas pit-smoked “country-style” pork ribs by hitting all the right notes and "putting other 'rib' sandwiches on notice." As Arby's President Jim Taylor explains, "We’re on a mission to call out weak sandwiches of questionable quality, and there is no other product that can compare to our REAL Country-Style Rib Sandwich or is worthy of Pusha T’s praise."
Alongside the new track and music video, Pusha T has also lent his creativity to some new country-style merch, which includes a sandwich bolo tie, a trucker hat, and a matching bandana.
