Philly Cheesesteak Sliders

Philly Cheesesteak Sliders:

Slow roasted, artisan-quality roast beef, creamy provolone cheese, delicious onions and peppers, all inside a roll topped with a delicious buttery sauce that takes these over the top and makes them the perfect picnic lunch option!

Philly cheesesteaks are a picnic favorite around here, especially when I make these easier to eat sliders. They offer a lot of flavor without a ton of prep work. In fact, these can easily be put together while packing the car and rounding up the kid’s shoes. But no one has to know how easy they are because the quality and taste is phenomenal.

What is on a traditional Philly cheese steak?

A traditional Philly cheese steak uses beef, cheese, onions, and peppers. And this cheesesteak slider is no exception. But we are swaying from tradition a little to bring you a picnic option that is easy to make, absolutely tasty, and just as good as the original, but half the work!

• Instead of ribeye, we use thinly sliced deli roast beef
• Instead of Cheese Whiz we use provolone slices
• Instead of a Hoagie, we use a Hawaiian sweet roll

This picnic favorite offers the same reminiscent flavors of a traditional Philly cheese steak, but none of the hassle.

What cut of meat is best for Philly cheese steak?

Traditionally, a Philly Cheesesteak is made with thinly sliced ribeye. But… let’s be honest here, ribeye steaks tend to be a bit pricey. And who has time to do all that thin slicing? So for this recipe I am using a total shortcut, that gives you artisan quality food at home without a huge price tag and absolutely no work!

What is my secret?

Thinly sliced deli roast beef or peppered beef. Look for good quality, thinly sliced roast beef at the deli counter. It gives you all the flavor of a classic cheesesteak with none of the work.

It is a super tasty shortcut to a classic favorite sandwich without sacrificing flavor. All the beef, none of the hassle.

Roast beef is not the only option, either. Peppered beef is amazing in this recipe, and you could even try sliced turkey or ham.

What cheese is best for Philly Cheese Steak?

The most commonly used cheeses or cheese products for Philly cheesesteak are: American cheese, Cheez Whiz, and Provolone.

Because I like things that are natural, and without a bunch of junk in them, these Philly cheese steak sliders use Provolone! It still gives them that creamy, cheesy, delicious flavor you want, but isn’t as messy, or as processed. But if you want these to be extra cheesy, throw in a little cheese whiz!

How do you make Philly cheese steak sliders?

Philly cheese steak sliders are so simple to make:

1. Quick saute your onions and peppers so they are sweet and ready to be added to your sandwich.
2. Cut your Hawaiian sweet rolls horizontally, and remove the tops.
3. Layer that premium sliced meat: thinly sliced roast beef or peppered beef
4. Add your onion and pepper mix.
5. Top with provolone cheese and the top half of the rolls.
6. Mix up your butter sauce, and brush it over the tops.
7. Bake until cheese is melty.
8. Enjoy!
