Servings 12 Sliders

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
  • 1 package Hawaiian sweet rolls 12 rolls total
  • 1 pound deli roast beef*
  • 12 slices Sargento provolone cheese separated, 1 package
  • 1 and 1/2 cups French fried onions optional

Seasoning

  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 packet Au Jus seasoning mix separated
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • 3/4 teaspoon dried minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt optional**

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Butter the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking dish with the softened unsalted butter.
  • Without separating the rolls, slice the package of rolls in half.
  • Place the bottom half of the rolls in the baking dish. Top with the 6 slices of the provolone cheese, roast beef, french fried onions, remaining 6 slices of cheese, and the other half of the rolls.
  • In a small bowl, melt the butter in the microwave. Mix in 1 tablespoon of the au jus seasoning mix,
  • Worcestershire sauce, sesame seeds, dried minced garlic, onion powder, and seasoned salt **(I like things salty! If you don't leave this out). Whisk until well combined.
  • Top the rolls evenly with this mixture (you don't need to use all of it, we usually use about 3/4ths) but just make sure all the rolls are entirely coated. If you have leftover put it in the fridge to top steak or bread at another time.
  • Bake the sliders uncovered until the cheese is gooey and the tops of the rolls are golden brown -- about 15-20 minutes.
  • Remove and cut the sliders with a very sharp knife.
  • While the sliders are baking, take the remaining au jus mixture and place in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add 2 cups cold water and whisk. Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer to allow it to slightly thicken.
  • Serve with the sandwiches.

Notes

*I like to get rare deli roast beef because as it cooks in these sliders it becomes medium-medium+
**I like things salty!! If you aren't a fan of too much salt, omit this addition.
