Easy Baked Roast Beef Sandwiches

These Awesome Sauce Roast Beef Sandwiches are AWESOME! They might be my favorite roast beef sandwich of all time. The sliders are super easy to make and taste great. They are perfect for parties, tailgating, lunch, or dinner.

What is Awesome Sauce? Awesome sauce is a combination of hot sauce, teriyaki sauce, and honey mustard. The idea came from a sandwich I ate at a local sports bar. The sauce was so good. I asked the waitress what was in it. She asked the cook and came back with the ingredients. I finally got around to recreating the sandwiches at home, and I have to say that my version is better than the original!

How to Make Baked Roast Beef Sliders

These sandwiches are super easy to make. Start with slicing some Hawaiian rolls in half and placing the bottoms in a baking dish. Toss some thinly sliced deli roast beef in some Awesome Sauce. Place the meat on top of the rolls. Top with cheese and the roll tops.

In a small sauce pan, melt butter, brown sugar, Awesome Sauce, and some Everything Bagel Seasoning. Pour the sauce over the tops of the roast beef sandwiches and bake.

  • I used freshly sliced roast beef from the deli. I prefer Boar's Head London Broil. Ask them to cut "shaved" so it is super thin. You can use any thickness you prefer.
  • Can use more roast beef on the slider buns if you prefer.
  • I used Frank's Hot Sauce. You can use Frank's Wing Sauce or Crystal's hot sauce.
  • This recipe uses a thick teriyaki sauce. I used Sweet Baby Ray's.
  • For the honey mustard dressing, I used Ken's.
  • I prefer to use white American cheese because it melts really well. Feel free to substitute mozzarella, provolone, or white cheddar slices.
  • Can I make these sandwiches in advance? You can assemble the sliders ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to bake. I suggest making the sauce right before baking the sandwiches. The rolls might get soggy in the refrigerator overnight.
  • Are the sandwiches spicy? We did not think the sandwiches were spicy. If you are worried about the heat from the hot sauce, please adjust it to your personal preferences.
