Equipment
- Skillet
- Spatula
- Baking Dish (9x13-inch)
- Aluminum foil
- Basting Brush
Ingredients
Filling
- 1 lb ground beef 85% lean preferred
- 1 large yellow onion finely diced
- 1 medium green bell pepper diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced (or 1/2 tsp garlic powder)
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 12 slider buns Hawaiian or dinner rolls
- 6–8 slices provolone cheese or Swiss cheese
Butter Topping
- 4 tbsp butter melted
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp oil for sautéing
Optional Toppings
- sliced jalapeños, mushrooms, or pickled peppers optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Dice onions and peppers, mince garlic, and prepare slider buns.
- In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions and bell peppers, sautéing for 5–7 minutes until softened and lightly caramelized.
- Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant, then add ground beef. Brown for 5–8 minutes, breaking apart with a spatula. Drain any excess fat.
- Stir in Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix until evenly combined and remove from heat.
- Place bottom halves of slider buns in a 9×13-inch baking dish. Spoon beef mixture evenly over buns and layer provolone cheese slices on top.
- Place the top buns over the cheese to complete the sliders.
- Combine melted butter and garlic powder in a bowl. Brush over the tops of the buns.
- Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 5–7 minutes until tops are golden and cheese is melted.
- Let cool for 5 minutes, slice along bun lines, and serve warm. Optionally, add jalapeños or hot sauce for extra flavor.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for longer. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 10–15 minutes to keep them crispy. Try variations with cheddar or Swiss cheese, or add sautéed mushrooms for a rich twist.
