Description

For this cheesy bacon slider bake recipe, Hawaiian rolls are filled with Cheddar cheese, beef, and bacon, and glazed with butter, brown sugar, and Dijon.

Ingredients

1 (18 ounce) package Hawaiian sweet rolls
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
1 pound ground beef
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes with garlic and onion
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
12 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
1/2 cup butter
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
2 Place rolls, without separating them, on a flat work surface; cut in half horizontally. Arrange bottom half rolls in the prepared pan; sprinkle 1 cup Cheddar cheese on top.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, 3 to 5 minutes.
4 Add beef and onion to a skillet; cook and stir until beef is browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Drain grease. Stir in tomatoes, 1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, 1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper; cook until fully combined, 1 to 2 minutes.
5 Spoon beef mixture over rolls; sprinkle remaining 1 cup Cheddar cheese and bacon on top. Cover with top half rolls.
6 Combine butter, brown sugar, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, and 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce in a microwave-safe bowl; cover. Microwave on high until butter is melted, about 1 minute; stir until blended. Pour over rolls; sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
7 Bake in the preheated oven, uncovered, until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
