There’s something about these sliders that just vanish the moment you put them out. Whether it’s a Super Bowl spread, birthday snack table, or just a Saturday afternoon with people over — these warm, cheesy bites are always the first to go. They’re soft, buttery, and ridiculously easy to make (you don’t even need to measure anything fancy).

I first made them for a tailgate party where the only other food was a massive bowl of chips and a questionable seven-layer dip. Let’s just say they saved the day — and my snack board reputation.

Ingredients You’ll Need:

  • 1 pack of 12 soft Hawaiian rolls (or any slider buns)
  • 12 slices of deli ham (thin or thick — your call)
  • 6 slices Swiss cheese (cut in half to make 12 squares)
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried parsley (or Italian herbs)

Step 1: Slice and Stack

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the rolls in half horizontally (keep them connected if possible — it’s easier). Place the bottom halves into a baking dish. Layer the ham slices and cheese evenly, then top with the other half of the rolls.

Step 2: Make That Magic Butter Topping

In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, mustard, Worcestershire, garlic powder, and herbs. Brush it all over the tops of the rolls until they’re glossy and golden. Don’t skimp — this is the flavor bomb.

Step 3: Bake and Serve

Cover the dish loosely with foil and bake for 12 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 5–7 minutes until the cheese is gooey and the tops are golden. Let them rest for a minute or two before slicing — and then watch them disappear.

Tips & Party Swaps

  • Add thin pickle slices inside for a tangy bite.
  • Swap Swiss for cheddar or provolone.
  • Use turkey, roast beef, or pepperoni for different flavor profiles.
  • Serve with ranch, honey mustard, or a small dipping station for extra fun.

These sliders go beautifully on party food platters, snack boards, or next to your best football food appetizers. And yes, they reheat well if you ever actually have leftovers.
