Ingredients

Sliders

  • ½ pound thick-cut hardwood smoked bacon
  • 1 3-pound boneless ham
  • 1½ dozen soft pull-apart slider rolls
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted

Creamy Cheese Filling

  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 10 ounces yellow cheddar cheese shredded (about 3 cups)
  • 1 8-ounce container sour cream
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • ½ cup scallions finely minced
  • Dash of hot sauce to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Arrange bacon on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake until crisp, about 15–20 minutes. Drain, cool, and chop; set aside.
  • Thinly slice the entire ham using a sharp knife; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, scallions, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder.
  • Stir in chopped bacon until evenly combined.
  • Slice slider rolls in half horizontally.
  • Spread the cheese mixture evenly over both the tops and bottoms of the rolls.
  • Layer sliced ham onto the bottom halves, folding slices as needed, then place roll tops back on.
  • Arrange sliders tightly in a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  • Brush tops with melted butter, cover with parchment and foil, and bake for 10 minutes.
  • Uncover and bake an additional 15 minutes until heated through and lightly golden.
  • Remove from oven and serve immediately.

Notes

Ingredient Substitutions

  • Swap cheddar for Colby Jack or Monterey Jack.
  • Use smoked turkey instead of ham for a lighter option.
  • Replace mayonnaise with Greek yogurt for a tangier filling.

Make-Ahead

  • Assemble sliders up to 24 hours in advance and refrigerate.
  • Bake just before serving, adding a few extra minutes if chilled.

Serving Variations

  • Serve with pickles, potato chips, or a simple green salad.
  • Add sliced jalapeños for extra heat.
  • Drizzle tops with honey butter for a sweet-salty twist.

Avoid Mistakes

  • Don’t overbake or sliders may dry out.
  • Slice ham thinly for even layering.
  • Let cream cheese fully soften for a smooth filling.
