    Philly cheesesteak sliders with ground beef

    If you’ve ever made Philly Cheesesteak before you know that the process takes some time as it generally involves steak. This recipe is much easier and a twist on the traditional cheesesteak sliders as it’s made with ground beef, onions, peppers, and melty provolone cheese.

    The addition of sweet Hawaiian rolls adds an unexpected twist to this iconic sandwich. Their pillowy texture pairs perfectly with the savory filling and creates a delightful contrast in flavors.

    Plus, their small size makes them ideal for parties or even as an appetizer at your next gathering.

    • Serve with additional condiments such as mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, or even some spicy aioli for an extra kick.
    • Make sure to drain the grease from the ground beef before adding in the cheese.
    • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to one month.

    There are plenty of delicious options to serve alongside with this dish. Here are some ideas.

    • French fries – regular or sweet potato fries.

    FAQs

    Can I use a different type of bread for the sliders?

    Of course! While Hawaiian rolls are traditionally used for sliders, you can use any kind of slider buns or small rolls.

    Can I make these ahead of time?

    Yes and no. To prevent them from getting soggy, prepare the ground beef mixture ahead of time and store in fridge. When ready to serve assemble the sliders and bake.

    Can I use steak instead of ground beef?

    Yes! Thin slices of steak works best such as shaved steak. Cook meat accordingly, assemble and bake.

    Can I freeze these sliders?

    Yes, you can! Just make per the directions and allow to cool. Wrap individually or place in a freezer safe bag and freeze for up to one month.
