Ingredients
Scale
Slider Sandwiches
- 12 Hawaiian rolls
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 4 ounces sliced ham
- 4 ounces pulled pork
- 4 ounces Swiss cheese
- 12 dill pickle slices
Butter Glaze
- 1 tablespoon butter (melted)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350˚F (175˚C) to prepare for baking the sliders.
- Prepare Rolls: Slice the Hawaiian rolls horizontally, separating the tops from the bottoms. Place the bottoms cut side up on a baking sheet with edges to keep them contained.
- Spread Sauce: Combine the mayonnaise and yellow mustard in a small bowl, then spread this mixture evenly over the cut side of the rolls.
- Assemble Sliders: Layer the sliced ham evenly over the mayo-mustard spread, then add the pulled pork. Top with slices of Swiss cheese and place one dill pickle slice on each slider. Finally, place the tops back on the rolls.
- Butter Glaze: Melt the butter in a small bowl, stir in the garlic salt, and brush this flavorful butter mixture over the tops of the rolls to add moisture and a savory crust while baking.
- Prepare for Baking: Cover the sliders with a sheet of aluminum foil to catch any drips and make cleanup easier. Then, place a second heavy baking sheet on top of the foil-covered sliders to press them slightly as they bake.
- Bake: Bake the sliders in the preheated oven for 10-14 minutes until heated through, the cheese starts to melt, and the tops are lightly golden.
- Serve: Remove the top baking sheet and aluminum foil carefully. Cut the sliders apart using a sharp knife and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious Cuban sliders!
Notes
- For extra authenticity, use Cuban bread rolls if available instead of Hawaiian rolls.
- You can substitute pulled pork with roasted pork shoulder or leftover roast pork.
- To make it spicier, add some sliced jalapeños or a sprinkle of cayenne pepper to the mayo-mustard spread.
- The baking sheet placed on top helps to press the sandwiches, giving them a panini-like texture.
- These sliders can be assembled in advance and baked just before serving.
