These French Dip Sliders are quick, cheesy, and perfect for game nights or casual parties, featuring tender roast beef and a warm au jus for dipping.
Ingredients
Slider Ingredients
- 12 pieces Slider rolls Hearty slider rolls that hold dipping without falling apart.
- 1 pound Sliced roast beef Use thin-sliced roast beef intended for deli sandwiches.
- 1 packet Au jus seasoning packet
- 2 cups Beef broth Can replace 1/2 cup of broth with beef consommé or a splash of dry red wine.
- 1/2 cup Unsalted butter Softened, for spreading.
- Garlic powder
- Onion powder
- Swiss cheese slices Enough to cover each slider; can swap with provolone or Gruyère.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place a rack in the center.
- Pour beef broth into a small saucepan and whisk in the au jus seasoning. Warm over low heat until just simmering, then remove from heat and keep warm.
- Spread a thin layer of softened butter over the tops of the slider rolls. Sprinkle evenly with garlic powder and onion powder.
- Open the rolls and layer roast beef on the bottom halves. Top each with a slice of Swiss cheese (tear slices if needed to fit).
Baking
- Close the sliders, set them on a baking sheet, and bake for 10–15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops are lightly golden.
Serving
- Transfer sliders to a serving platter and bring the au jus back to a gentle heat. Serve sliders warm with bowls of au jus for dipping.
Notes
Serve sliders warm and immediately for the best texture. They pair beautifully with crunchy sides and light salads.
