These tender pull-apart cheeseburger sliders on Hawaiian rolls are an easy 5-ingredient recipe perfect for quick dinners and casual gatherings. The sweet rolls paired with juicy seasoned beef and melted cheese create a comforting, crowd-pleasing meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound (450 grams) ground beef (80/20 blend)
  • 12 count Hawaiian rolls
  • 8 oz (225 grams) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup (115 grams) melted unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste (optional)
  • Optional: dried parsley or Italian seasoning for butter mix
  • Optional: mustard or pickle slices for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook for about 6-8 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula until browned and no longer pink. Drain any excess fat.
  3. Season the cooked beef lightly with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. With a serrated knife, carefully slice the entire pack of Hawaiian rolls horizontally in half, keeping all the rolls connected in one sheet. Separate the top and bottom halves.
  5. Place the bottom half of the rolls in a 9×13-inch baking dish. Spread the cooked beef evenly over the rolls.
  6. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese generously over the beef layer.
  7. Place the top half of the rolls back over the cheese layer.
  8. In a small bowl, combine melted butter with garlic powder. Brush this mixture generously over the top of the rolls, covering the entire surface.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops of the rolls are golden brown. If tops brown too quickly, tent loosely with foil.
  10. Let the sliders rest for 5 minutes before serving warm and pulling apart.

Notes

Do not overmix the beef to keep it tender. Drain excess fat well to avoid soggy sliders. Brush butter evenly over the rolls for a golden crust. Use freshly shredded cheese for best melt and gooey texture. You can add Worcestershire sauce to beef for extra umami. Sliders can be assembled ahead and refrigerated before baking. Freeze before baking for up to 2 months.
