Detailed Directions and Instructions
Prepare the Beef
Start by preheating the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the roast beef in a roasting pan and season with salt, pepper, and any preferred spices.
Cook the Beef
Roast the beef in the preheated oven for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. A meat thermometer should read 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
Rest the Beef
Once cooked, remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for at least 15-20 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
Slice the Beef
After resting, thinly slice the roast beef against the grain for the best texture.
Prepare the Sliders
While the beef is resting, cut the slider buns in half and place the bottom halves on a baking sheet.
Add Cheese
Layer slices of cheese over the bottom half of the slider buns.
Assemble the Sliders
Once the beef is sliced, layer it on top of the cheese-covered buns. You can add any additional toppings such as caramelized onions or mustard at this stage.
Top the Sliders
Place the top halves of the buns on the assembled sliders.
Drizzle with Butter
In a small bowl, melt some butter and add garlic powder or herbs if desired. Brush this mixture over the tops of the slider buns.
Bake the Sliders
Bake the assembled sliders in the oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until the buns are golden and the cheese is melted.
Serve
Remove from the oven and slice the sliders into individual pieces. Serve warm.
