How to Make Ham and Cheese Sliders
Preheat oven to 350. First, cut the entire 16 count package of Hawaiian King’s Roll in half lengthwise.
Place the bottom of the rolls in your baking pan or on foil. Spread on the mayo/mustard mixture. Then, add on the toppings. Firstly, the ham slices.
Next, add on the provolone and pickle slices.
Lastly, add the turkey deli meat and sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the butter until melted and whisk in the garlic powder, mustard powder, and poppy seeds. Use a pastry brush, like this Silicone Basting Brush and Pastry Brush to brush the butter topping on the rolls.
Cover with foil and bake for 30-35 minutes until cheese is melted through. Cut into 16 sandwiches and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Notes
This recipe was okay but the steps should be in reverse order. It was much easier to spread the Mayo and mustard mixture on before all the lunch meat and cheese went on went on.
Hi Lisa. Thanks so much for your comment. I agree that it would have been easier to do the mayo/mustard mixture before the meat and cheese, and I appreciate you mentioning it! I hope you enjoyed the recipe otherwise and continue to try other recipes from This Delicious House.
Angela, these sliders look delicious! Making me so hungry!
Can I freeze these after baked?
Hi Dianne. You should be ok to freeze these in an airtight container for up to a month. To reheat I would defrost either overnight in the fridge or microwave on low, then wrap in foil and bake for a couple of minutes to heat through. Hope this helps and thanks for writing! 🙂
What kind of pickles do you recommend?
I like sliced round dill pickles with this recipe. Enjoy!
Angela,
I love the recipe and would like to try serving them at a baby shower. However, due to the number of guests, I do not think if will be able to bake them right before the shower and serve them warm. Do you think they would be ok to make the day ahead and serve cold?
Yes! These are delicious cold as well. Enjoy the baby shower!
What flavorful sliders! I love the use of King’s Hawaiian Rolls. They take simple recipes to the next level!
Fabulous sliders to make for a small party with your close friends. They will certainly like them! 🙂
Ham and cheese is one of my favorite combinations! With your additions of mustard and pickles, I think this recipe will send me straight to heaven. These would be perfect for a party!
They are sooo good! The pickles are my favorite part 🙂
These look adorable, and I’ve never thought of assembling them BEFORE pulling the buns apart. Genius!
Made this for the family and it was a hit!
So happy you loved them!
Hi! I am making these for a baby shower this weekend. I saw your comment about preparing them the day before but I have a question. Should I go ahead and brush the butter mixture on??? Or wait to do that until right before I bake them? Thank you!
If you can wait until right before you bake them, that would be best! Let me know how it turns out 🙂
This was very delicious! My picky wife highly approved and I loved that it was so easy to cook. Thank you for sharing!
So happy you all loved them! 🙂
