A Crowd-Pleaser

Toasted Hawaiian rolls, roast beef, melty cheese and beefy dip...

You really can't go wrong here! These sliders are super easy to assemble and the juice for dipping is not only fun but of course delicious too.

★ Ingredients You'll Need ★

You don't need a lengthy list of ingredients to make this easy recipe!

Here's everything you need to make these yummy French Dip sliders:

• Savory Hawaiian rolls. I prefer these to the sweet Hawaiian rolls. They're moist and buttery. You can use either one though, up to you.
• Provolone cheese. This mildly flavored cheese melts perfectly and taste great with beef.
• Deli roast beef. I always go with a top quality deli roast beef. You typically get more "meaty" flavor and not just salt.
• The glaze for the rolls is made with: butter, onion powder, sesame seeds, and black pepper.
• Beef consommé. Sounds fancy but you can find this in the canned soup aisle. It's perfect to serve these sliders "au jus" (with juice).
• Sesame seeds. These add nutty flavor and extra texture to the buns.
• Onion powder, salt and pepper season the beef.
• Butter. Salted butter is melted and brushed onto the roll to lock in moisture and add a crispy outer later.

★ How to Make this Recipe ★

These sliders and super simple to prepare. Just layer, bake and serve with warmed au jus!

Here's a look at the steps:

• Slice the entire block of rolls in half.
• Layer on provolone cheese.
• Add a layer of roast beef.
• Add tops of rolls.
• Brush with seasoned melted butter.
• Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
• Bake.
• Warm the beef consommé.
• Serve sliders with a bowl of the beef consommé for dipping!

Super simple little appetizer that's a crowd favorite.

★ FAQs & Tips ★

I prefer the Savory Butter Hawaiian Rolls.

Your choice here but I am not a fan of the sweet rolls with this particular recipe. The sweet rolls are awesome with things like pulled pork but for these more salty than sweet roast beef French dip sliders, I feel the savory rolls are a better compliment.

Add some extra flavor.

If you want to adds some flavor and veggies to these little sliders, you can try adding sauteed bell peppers, onions, and/or mushrooms. The flavor you end up with is a little more like a Philly cheesesteak and there's nothing wrong with that!

You can also try sprinkling on some onion powder and/or garlic powder directly onto the roast beef.

French Dip Cups

You can serve the juice for dipping in a sharable bowl or ideally everyone could get their own little cup of beef au jus sauce or beef consommé for dipping. If you need small cups that would work well for this, here are some you can purchase from Amazon:

Or if you prefer a different style, you can browse a variety of au jus cups on Amazon.
