About this recipe

These garlic butter cheesesteak sliders are one of those recipes that always disappear fast. They have everything you want in an easy comfort-food dinner or appetizer: soft buttery rolls, juicy shaved steak, sautéed onions and peppers, melty provolone, creamy garlic mayo, and a garlic butter topping that makes the tops golden and flavorful in the oven. They’re simple to make, but they taste like something much more special.

What makes this recipe so good is how all the layers come together. The steak gets seasoned and cooked with onions and peppers, then finished with Worcestershire sauce for extra flavor. The garlic mayo adds creaminess, the provolone melts right into the filling, and the garlic butter brushed on top gives the sliders that extra little touch that makes them so good fresh out of the oven. Everything bakes together into warm, cheesy, pull-apart sliders that are perfect for serving.

These are great for weeknight dinners, game day, casual gatherings, or anytime you want something easy that everyone will love. They’re also super convenient because you can assemble everything quickly and bake it all at once. If you’re looking for an easy cheesesteak sliders recipe that’s cheesy, buttery, and full of flavor, this one is such a good one to make.

Ingredient notes

  • Shaved steak: Shaved steak cooks quickly and gives the sliders that classic cheesesteak texture. If needed, you can use very thinly sliced steak instead.
  • Green pepper: Green pepper adds a little sweetness and bite and gives the filling that classic cheesesteak flavor.
  • White onion: Onion softens as it cooks and adds so much flavor to the filling.
  • Worcestershire sauce: This adds extra savory depth and makes the steak mixture taste even richer.
  • Paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder: These seasonings keep the filling simple but flavorful.
  • Butter rolls: Soft pull-apart rolls work best here because they hold the filling well and bake up beautifully.
  • Garlic mayonnaise: Garlic mayo adds a creamy, garlicky layer that works really well with the steak and cheese.
  • Provolone cheese: Provolone melts beautifully and gives the sliders that classic cheesesteak taste.
  • Garlic butter: The garlic butter on top adds flavor, helps the rolls brown, and gives the sliders that extra bakery-style finish.
  • Parsley: Parsley adds freshness and a little color to the garlic butter topping.

Tips & tricks

  • Cook the onions and peppers until softened before adding the steak for the best texture.
  • Do not overcook the shaved steak since it cooks very quickly.
  • Keep the rolls connected when slicing so assembly is easier.
  • Spread the garlic mayo evenly so every slider gets some.
  • Layer the provolone evenly across the top so the cheese melts nicely over the filling.
  • Brush the tops generously with garlic butter for the best flavor and color.
  • Let the sliders cool for a couple of minutes before slicing so the cheese can set slightly.

Storage & make-ahead

Storage: Store leftover sliders in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Reheating: Reheat in the oven or air fryer until warmed through and the bread is crisp again. The microwave works too, but the bread will be softer.

Make ahead: You can cook the steak mixture ahead of time and store it in the fridge. Assemble the sliders when ready to bake.

Best tip: For the best texture, wait to add the garlic butter and bake until just before serving.

Frequently asked questions
