They’re perfect for parties, game day, or any time you need a delicious snack that’s easy to make and sure to impress. Let’s dive in!

Ingredients:

• 12 slider buns or small dinner rolls
• 1-2 lbs of ham
• 12 slices of cooked bacon
• 10-12 slices of cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or your favorite)
• 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1/3 cup honey
• ¾ cup melted butter
• 1 ½ tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons paprika
• 1 tablespoon black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that it’s ready to go once your sliders are assembled.

  2. Prepare the Buns:

Slice the slider buns in half horizontally, keeping the top and bottom halves intact if they are connected. Place the bottom halves in a 9×13-inch baking dish.

3. Cook and Season Ham:

In a skillet add the ham, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper. Cook until ham is warm and evenly coated with seasonings.

4. Assemble the Sliders:

Spread the ham evenly on top of the bottom halves of the rolls.

Then follow with the bacon.

Next, top with cheese.

Lastly, place the tops of the rolls on top of the cheese.

5. Make the Sauce:

In a small pan, melt the butter, then, add the mustard, honey, and the Worcestershire sauce and mix well.

Then pour over the top of the sandwiches. This sauce will add a delicious tangy and sweet flavor to your sliders.

6. Bake the Sliders: Cover the baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. This allows the cheese to melt and all the flavors to blend together. Remove the cover and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and slightly crispy.

7. Serve and Enjoy: Once the sliders are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Use a sharp knife to separate the sliders if they’re connected. Serve them warm and watch them disappear quickly!

Tips for Perfect Sliders:

• Cheese Choices: Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese. Swiss, cheddar, and provolone all work wonderfully.
• Bacon Prep: Make sure your bacon is cooked to your desired crispiness before assembling the sliders.
• Sauce Variations: For a spicier kick, add a bit of sriracha or hot sauce to the butter mixture.

These Bacon Ham Sliders are a hit at any event. They’re easy to make, packed with flavor, and perfect for feeding a crowd. Plus, they’re versatile enough to customize to your taste. Give them a try at your next party and watch them become a new favorite!

Happy cooking, and enjoy your delicious sliders!
