½ tablespoon Dijon mustard: Adds a tangy kick.
¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce: Brings a savory umami flavor to tie it all together.

How to Make Philly Cheesesteak Sliders

Prep the Sliders: Preheat your oven to 350°F and butter a 9×13″ baking dish. Carefully slice the 12 Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally, keeping them connected. Place the top half aside for later.
Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter together with 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and bell peppers, cooking until softened, which takes about 10 minutes. Stir in 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon of dry onion soup mix, ¼ teaspoon of salt, and pepper. Once everything is combined and fragrant, add the 12 slices of roast beef, stirring until the beef is warmed through.
Assemble the Sliders: Place the bottom halves of the Hawaiian rolls in your baking dish. Spoon the beef and veggie mixture over the rolls, and layer 6 slices of provolone cheese on top. Finally, place the top roll section back on.
Prepare the Butter Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together 4-6 tablespoons of melted butter, ½ tablespoon of Dijon mustard, ¼ teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce, and ½ to 1 teaspoon of onion powder. Spoon this buttery goodness evenly over the assembled sliders. Allow them to sit for about 10 minutes so the sauce can soak in.
Bake the Sliders: Cover the sliders with aluminum foil and bake for 10-15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake an additional 2 minutes to brown the tops of the rolls. The result should be a golden, cheesy topping, begging to be enjoyed immediately.
Heat the Consomme: While the sliders are baking, warm up the beef consomme in the microwave or stovetop. It’s perfect for dipping those sliders into!

Storing & Reheating

To keep your sliders fresh, store any leftover Philly Cheesesteak Sliders at room temperature for no more than 2 hours. For prolonged freshness, place them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If you want to take it a step further, you can freeze these sliders for up to 3 months. Reheat them by baking in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 15-20 minutes. Note that while reheating will keep them tasty, the texture may change slightly, so enjoy them fresh whenever possible!

Chef’s Helpful Tips

Always sauté your vegetables until they’re tender to ensure they’re flavorful and can blend well with the beef.
For extra flavor, let the butter sauce rest briefly before pouring it over the sliders—this allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
If using frozen beef, make sure to thaw it in the fridge overnight before using, for easier handling.
Try using different types of cheese! Cheddar or mozzarella can add a unique twist to your sliders.
If you’re making these ahead of time, assemble everything but the butter sauce. Just pour the sauce on right before baking to keep the rolls fluffy.

When you make these Philly Cheesesteak Sliders, you’ll not only serve a dish that brings people together, but also create memories that linger long after the last bite is gone. They’re easy, delicious, and sure to become a family favorite that you’ll return to again and again. So get your skillet ready, gather your loved ones, and dig in!
