Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 sliders
Ingredients
- 12 slider rolls
- 1 pound roast beef, thinly sliced
- 1 cup provolone cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup au jus
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
- Slice the slider rolls horizontally, keeping them connected as a single unit. Carefully separate the top and bottom halves without fully detaching them.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine melted butter, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Whisk together until well incorporated.
- Brush the bottom half of the slider rolls generously with the butter mixture, ensuring even coverage.
- Layer the thinly sliced roast beef evenly across the bottom half of the rolls, creating a consistent meat distribution.
- Sprinkle the shredded provolone cheese over the roast beef, covering the entire surface.
- Replace the top half of the slider rolls and brush the exterior with the remaining butter mixture.
- Wrap the entire slider ensemble tightly in aluminum foil, creating a sealed packet to help steam and melt the cheese.
- Place the wrapped sliders in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted and the rolls are golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 2-3 minutes. Unwrap carefully and slice into individual sliders.
- Serve immediately with warm au jus on the side for dipping, allowing guests to customize their slider experience.
Tips
- Choose high-quality, thinly sliced roast beef for maximum tenderness and flavor.
- Don't skip brushing the rolls with the butter mixture - this creates a golden, crispy exterior and adds incredible depth of flavor.
- Wrapping the sliders in foil helps steam the rolls and melt the cheese evenly, ensuring a perfect texture.
- Let the sliders rest for a few minutes after baking to allow the cheese to set and flavors to meld.
- Serve the au jus warm on the side to allow guests to customize their dipping experience.
- For a make-ahead option, you can prepare the sliders and refrigerate before baking - just add an extra 5 minutes to the cooking time.
- Experiment with different cheese varieties like Swiss or cheddar for unique flavor combinations.
