My family is in love with these oven-baked Ham and Smoked Gouda Sliders. Ham and smoked Gouda cheese is nestled into soft slider buns, then drizzled with a warm butter mixture and sprinkled with a poppy seed topping. These ham and cheese sliders are super fast to make and always a party favorite.

Here’s the New Best Ham and Cheese Slider Recipe

HOWDY! CHEF ALLI HERE. LET’S GET YOU COOKIN’…. SHALL WE?? 🙂

I’m sure you already know that sliders are the ultimate snack for feeding a crowd and make for super easy entertaining. Ham and cheese sliders never go out of style!

My guys are meat lovers so sliders are always a big hit with them. I make Meatball Sub Sliders and Bacon Cheeseburger Sliders all the time. If you’re a patty melt sandwich fan like I am, I hope you’ll give Beef Patty Melt Sliders with Secret Sauce a shot – they are the bomb!

Instant Pot Buffalo Chicken Sliders take just minutes to make in the electric pressure cooker, too.

EASY HAM AND CHEESE SLIDERS

These sliders are simple and quick to make because they take just a couple of steps and only require a few ingredients. You’ve got dinner ready in a flash and your family will be all over it. 

WHAT TO LOVE ABOUT THIS RECIPE

  1. Ham and smoked Gouda cheese pair so perfectly.
  2. Everybody loves a good slider that’s oozing with meat and cheese…am I right? Who can resist!
  3. Double this recipe and make two pans – one for now and one for later.

INGREDIENTS YOU’LL NEED TO MAKE THIS EASY RECIPE

  • Deli ham
  • Smoked Gouda cheese
  • Butter
  • Spicy brown mustard
  • Brown sugar
  • Worcestershire sauce
  • Poppy seeds, optional

TIPS FOR MAKING THIS FAST WEEKNIGHT MEAL THE BEST IT CAN BE

A good way to keep sliders warm at a party is by placing them into a slow cooker set to the warm setting.

Sliders can also be kept warm in the oven. Use the lowest temperature setting and keep the pan of sliders covered with foil so the don’t dry out.

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAKING HAM AND CHEESE SLIDERS

**PRINT THE FULL RECIPE FROM THE RECIPE CARD AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9X13 inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray; reserve.

Open the rolls from their package, slide out the tray, and slice them in half, where you have all their tops in one “sheet”, and all their bottoms in one “sheet”. Place the bottoms in their sheet-like form in the prepared baking pan.

Layer half of the ham on top of the rolls; sprinkle with all of the cheese. Top the cheese with remaining half of ham, then add the sheet of the roll tops.

Meanwhile, melt the butter; whisk in the Worcestershire Sauce, mustard, and brown sugar; evenly pour the butter mixture over the tops of the rolls; sprinkle with poppy seeds, as desired.

Bake, covered, for 20 minutes on the center oven rack; remove the foil, and bake for another 5 minutes. Slice into individual sliders, and serve.

ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS ASKED ABOUT THIS RECIPE

WHICH TOOLS ARE HELPFUL FOR MAKING SLIDERS?

9 x 13 Baking Pans – You can use a metal 9×13 baking pan for this sliders, but I really prefer glass 9×13 baking pans for sliders. I love the 9×13 glass baking pans that come with a nice silicone lid that’s raised a bit so the contents don’t get smashed down.

Sometimes it’s convenient to use a pizza cutter for slicing sliders apart in order to make the task quicker.

Use a skinny spatula to lift the sliders out of the pan.

HOW MANY SLIDERS WILL SERVE EACH PERSON?

If you are serving sliders at a party with other side dishes and appetizers, I like to figure 1-2 sliders per person. Or, if you are serving sliders as a meal, its always a safe bet to figure 3 sliders per person.

CAN YOU FREEZE SLIDERS?

Yes, double the recipe and make two pans of sliders are once. That way you can freeze a pan of sliders for later. To bake, just thaw the sliders in the pan and bake as directed in the recipe card below, or until hot throughout.

HOW DO YOU CUSTOMIZE SLIDERS?

That’s the fun part about making sliders – they are easy to customize just by changing up the meat and cheese. You can use any type of deli meat, such as roast beef or pastrami, or even just use shredded leftover roast beef or rotisserie chicken. The meat just has to be fully cooked for making sliders.

When it comes to cheese, the sky is the limit, too. Use mozzarella, Swiss, Fontina, Parmesan, Colby Jack….whatever! It’s completely up to your taste buds and preferences.
