Roast Beef Sliders Recipe

Introduction

These roast beef sliders are an easy and delicious way to transform leftover roast beef into a tasty meal. Soft Hawaiian rolls, melted provolone, and a touch of garlic aioli make these sliders perfect for a quick lunch or party snack.

Ingredients

• 12 Hawaiian rolls
• 1 cup (300g) leftover roast beef, thinly sliced
• 6 slices (100g) provolone cheese
• ¼ cup mayonnaise or homemade garlic aioli
• 1 tablespoon butter, melted
• Sesame seeds, for sprinkling

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare all ingredients so they are ready to assemble.
2. Step 2: Slice the entire sheet of Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally using a serrated knife, but keep the individual rolls attached.
3. Step 3: Spread mayonnaise or garlic aioli evenly on the inside of both the top and bottom halves of the rolls.
4. Step 4: Place the bottom half of the rolls in a rectangular baking dish or on a baking tray. Layer the thinly sliced roast beef evenly across the bottom half.
5. Step 5: Add a layer of provolone cheese over the roast beef.
6. Step 6: Carefully place the top half of the rolls back over the layers of beef and cheese.
7. Step 7: Brush the melted butter over the top of the buns and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
8. Step 8: Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops are lightly golden.
9. Step 9: Remove from oven and use a knife to separate the individual sliders. Serve warm.

Tips & Variations

• Swap provolone for Swiss or cheddar cheese for a different flavor profile.
• Try adding caramelized onions or pickles inside for extra tang and sweetness.
• If you don’t have leftover roast beef, thinly sliced deli roast beef works well too.
• Use garlic aioli instead of plain mayo to add a burst of flavor.

Storage

Store any leftover sliders tightly wrapped in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat them in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes to keep the bread soft and cheese melted. Avoid microwaving to prevent sogginess.

Notes

• Using leftover roast beef works perfectly, but you can substitute with freshly cooked roast beef if preferred.
• For a more flavorful spread, try making homemade garlic aioli instead of plain mayonnaise.
• If you don’t have provolone cheese, mozzarella or Swiss cheese are good alternatives.
• To make sliders extra savory, add a few pickles or caramelized onions inside before baking.
• These sliders can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated; bake just before serving to keep buns fresh.
