Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish so nothing sticks.
-
Slice the rolls. Keep the rolls connected and slice them in half horizontally as one large piece. Place the bottom half into the baking dish.
-
Add the roast beef. Spread the deli roast beef evenly across the bottom layer. Try to cover all the edges so every slider gets a good bite.
-
Layer the flavor. Drizzle the BBQ sauce evenly over the beef. Spoon the cheddar cheese sauce on top and gently spread it out so it covers the meat.
-
Place the tops on. Set the top half of the rolls back over the filling.
-
Make the butter topping. In a small bowl, mix 3 tablespoons of the melted butter with garlic powder and onion powder.
-
Brush and season. Brush the seasoned butter generously over the tops of the rolls. Sprinkle Everything Bagel seasoning evenly across.
-
Bake. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake another 5–8 minutes, until the tops are golden and the inside is hot and melty.
-
Finish and serve. Brush with the remaining tablespoon of melted butter right after they come out of the oven. Let them cool for about 5 minutes, then slice and serve.
These Roast beef sliders are best served warm while the cheese is perfectly melted.

FAQ
Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes. You can assemble them a few hours in advance and keep them covered in the fridge. Add the butter topping right before baking.
Can I use sliced cheese instead of cheese sauce?
Definitely. Provolone, Swiss, or sliced cheddar melt nicely and give a slightly different texture.
How do I keep the bottoms from getting soggy?
Use a thin layer of BBQ sauce and avoid soaking the bread. Just enough to add flavor works best.
Can I freeze them?
Yes, assemble them without baking, wrap tightly, and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before baking.
What can I serve with these?
They pair well with fries, chips, coleslaw, potato salad, or even a simple side salad.
