Let’s Make it together
Preheat Your Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures even cooking and helps achieve that perfect golden crust on top.

Add Roast Beef and Cheese: Layer generous slices of roast beef over the bottom half of the buns followed by a slice or two of cheese. Watch as they meld together perfectly.
Mix Horseradish Sauce and Butter: In a small bowl, blend melted butter with horseradish sauce and garlic powder. This mixture will elevate each slider’s flavor profile magnificently.
Brush and Bake: Brush this delightful mixture over the assembled sliders liberally. Bake in your preheated oven for about 15 minutes until cheese is gooey and buns are golden brown.
Cut and Serve!: Once baked, remove from oven and slice into individual sliders. Serve them warm alongside extra horseradish sauce or ketchup for dipping!
