FAQs:
Can I make these sliders ahead of time?
Yes! Assemble the sliders without the butter topping, cover them, and refrigerate. When ready to bake, add the butter mixture and follow the baking instructions.
What can I use instead of cheddar cheese?
You can use Swiss, provolone, or even pepper jack for a different flavor profile.
Can I use deli roast beef?
Yes! Thinly sliced deli roast beef works perfectly for this recipe.
How do I store leftovers?
Store any leftover sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
