High-quality ingredients ensure the best possible results for these Philly cheesesteak style roast beef sliders. Select fresh deli roast beef, thinly sliced, and look for high-quality provolone for the best melt quality.

• 12 Hawaiian sweet rolls
• 1 pound thinly sliced deli roast beef
• 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 onion, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 8 slices provolone cheese
• 4 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• Cheese sauce for serving (optional)

Adjust these ingredients to suit your pantry or preferences without losing the classic feel of the dish.

• Provolone is classic, but you can use Swiss or Mozzarella if you prefer a different melt.
• You can stir in a dash of Worcestershire sauce into the butter mixture for extra umami depth.
• If you prefer heat, add diced jalapeños along with your bell peppers.
• Feel free to roast your own peppers if you have extra time for deeper flavor.

Step 1: Prepare the Vegetables

In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced bell pepper and onion, sautéing them for 8-10 minutes until they are softened and nicely caramelized. Season these vegetables with a pinch of salt and pepper, then set them aside to cool slightly.

Step 2: Assemble the Sliders

Preheat your oven to 350°F. Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally to create one slab of tops and one slab of bottoms. Place the bottom half into a baking dish. Distribute the deli roast beef evenly over the bottom rolls, followed by the sautéed peppers and onions, and finish with a layer of provolone cheese slices.

Step 3: Bake to Perfection

Place the top half of the rolls over the cheese. In a small bowl, mix the 4 tablespoons of melted butter with garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Brush this mixture generously over the tops of the rolls. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for 5 minutes more to ensure the tops are golden and the cheese is bubbly.

Step 4: Serve

Once removed from the oven, cut the rolls into individual sliders. Serve them warm, potentially with a side of extra warm cheese sauce for dipping.

These sliders provide a hearty meal all on their own, but pairing them correctly can make for a great spread.

• Serve with a side of crispy oven-baked potato wedges.
• Pair with a fresh garden salad or coleslaw to cut the richness of the cheese.
• Offer a variety of dipping sauces like warm cheese sauce or spicy mustard.
• These pair perfectly with iced tea or a simple sparkling lemonade.

Store leftover sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, wrap them in foil and place them in a 325°F oven until warmed through; this returns that soft, buttery texture without burning the bread.

Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

Yes, you can assemble the sliders, keep them in the baking dish, and refrigerate them before adding the butter topping. Just add the butter topping and bake when you are ready to serve.

Can I freeze this recipe?

It is best to freeze these before baking. Assemble them, wrap the dish tightly in plastic wrap and foil, and freeze for up to one month; thaw in the fridge before baking as directed.

What can I serve with this recipe?

These sliders are excellent with potato chips, pickles, or a light vegetable soup. They serve particularly well as part of a larger finger-food spread.

How do I keep this recipe from drying out?

Keeping the sliders covered with foil during the first 15 minutes of baking is key to retaining moisture. Ensure your butter mixture is applied evenly to help the rolls soak up the flavor.

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9 inch baking dish.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter and sauté the sliced onions and bell peppers until softened and slightly caramelized.
Slice the entire block of Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally to create a slab base and a top slab.
Place the bottom half of the rolls into the prepared baking dish.
Layer the roast beef over the rolls, followed by the sautéed onion and pepper mixture.
Arrange the slices of provolone cheese on top of the beef and vegetable layer.
Place the top half of the rolls over the cheese.
In a small bowl, whisk together the 4 tablespoons of melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.

Cover with foil and bake for 10 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and the tops are golden brown.
Cut into individual sliders and serve warm with optional cheese sauce.

Notes

Ensure the onions and peppers are sliced thinly so they cook through quickly during sautéing. You can assemble these ahead of time and keep them in the refrigerator, but let them come up to room temperature slightly before baking. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
