Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- Thinly sliced high-quality roast beef, about 8 oz
- Soft slider buns, 8 small rolls
- Swiss or provolone cheese slices, 8 slices
Condiments & Add-ons
- Horseradish sauce, 2 tablespoons (adjust to taste)
- Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon (adjust to taste)
- Butter, 2 tablespoons (for toasting buns)
- Caramelized onions (optional), ½ cup
Instructions
- Prepare the Slider Buns: Slice the slider buns horizontally without cutting all the way through, keeping them connected like a mini sandwich loaf. Spread butter evenly on the cut sides, then toast them in a skillet over medium heat until golden brown and fragrant to add a crispy, buttery flavor.
- Heat the Roast Beef: Warm the sliced roast beef gently in a skillet or microwave for a few seconds to bring out its natural juices and enhance tenderness without drying out the meat.
- Layer the Ingredients: Open the toasted buns and layer the warm roast beef slices evenly. Add a slice of cheese on top so it melts slightly from the warm meat underneath. Spread horseradish sauce and Dijon mustard on the bun’s other half, adjusting amounts to your taste.
- Assemble and Serve: Close the slider buns and press gently to combine all elements. If desired, add caramelized onions or fresh greens before closing. Slice apart the sandwich loaf or serve as one tray of connected sliders for a family-style presentation.
Notes
- Use fresh, high-quality deli-sliced roast beef for the best flavor and texture.
- Toast buns well to prevent sogginess and add a crunchy contrast.
- Apply sauces sparingly to balance flavors and avoid overpowering the sliders.
- Assemble sliders just before serving to enjoy them warm and melty.
- Experiment with different cheeses to find your favorite taste.
