How to Make Cozy Roast Beef Sliders

Let’s make it together! Follow these easy steps for tender, savory sliders that will make your heart (and tummy) happy.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Cut the Hawaiian rolls in half and place the bottom halves in a baking dish, side by side.
Layer the deli-sliced roast beef generously on top of the bottom halves of the rolls, followed by slices of your preferred cheese.
In a small bowl, mix melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce until combined.
Brush the butter mixture generously over the top of the roast beef and cheese, allowing it to seep down a bit.
Place the top halves of the rolls on and cover the sliders with aluminum foil.
Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for another 5-10 minutes until the tops are golden brown and delicious.
Serve warm and watch everyone reach for seconds!
