How to Make Corned Beef Sliders:
Ingredients:
- 1 package (12 count) slider buns (Hawaiian rolls or dinner rolls work great) (this is the homemade recipe I used)
- 6 slices Swiss cheese
- 3/4 lb corned beef (fresh or leftover!)
- 1 cup sauerkraut, well-drained
- 2 tbsp Thousand Island dressing (this is the homemade recipe I used)
- 1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, melted
- 1 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp dried minced onion
- 1 1/2 tbsp poppy seeds
Instructions:
- Prepare the Butter Sauce: In a bowl, mix melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, dried onion, and poppy seeds. Set aside.
- Assemble the Sliders: Slice the slider buns in half and place the bottom halves in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Layer with 6 slices of Swiss cheese.
- Add the Meat: Use corned beef, layering it at least three times over the cheese.
- Sauerkraut Mixture: In a bowl, mix the drained sauerkraut with Thousand Island dressing. Spread evenly over the meat. – I just place the sauerkraut on a few layers of paper towels and ring out the juice in the sink.
- Final Layers: Add 6 more slices of Swiss cheese and place the top halves of the slider buns on top.
- Brush & Bake: Pour the butter mixture over the sliders, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover with foil and bake at 350°F for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 5 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve & Enjoy: These corned beef sliders come out crispy on top, gooey in the middle, and packed with flavor! Serve with extra Thousand Island dressing for dipping.
