Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (12 count) Hawaiian sweet rolls or slider buns
- 2 cups cooked pulled pork (shredded)
- 1 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce
- 2 cups shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/4 cup red onions, finely diced
- 1/4 cup pickled jalapeño slices (optional)
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley or sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13 inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray to prevent the buns from sticking.
- Without pulling the individual rolls apart, slice the entire slab of slider buns in half horizontally. Place the bottom half of the buns into the prepared baking dish.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded pulled pork with about 3/4 cup of the BBQ sauce. Stir well until the meat is evenly coated and moist. You can add more sauce if you prefer a “wetter” slider.
- Spread the BBQ pork mixture evenly over the bottom halves of the buns. Sprinkle the diced red onions and pickled jalapeños over the meat. Finally, cover everything with a generous layer of shredded cheese.
- Place the top half of the buns over the cheese layer. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley. Use a pastry brush to coat the tops of the buns evenly with the butter mixture.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil. Bake for 10 minutes to melt the cheese. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the tops of the buns are golden brown and toasted. Let them cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
