This Philly Cheesesteak Sliders were loved by my family and is going to be a go-to recipe when we can finally have people over for dinner again! However, we are going to enjoy adding this recipe to our regular menu!
If you are looking for another great recipe for a crowd – you have to try my Totchos! It’s tator tots + bacon + a sour cream/ranch dressing + cheese + green onions.
The reason these are so amazing is because it combines the delicious taste of steak, peppers and onions on a soft slider roll with melted, gooey Provolone cheese.
You can grab and slider bread. It’s covered in butter and gets super soft and keeps that buttery flavor when you bake it in the over.
Another reason I love them is that with just a few ingredients it has so much flavor! And you can make it in about 40 minutes.
It’s also a great meal that bakes in the oven and I use that time to clean up the prep dishes so after dinner clean up is much easier!
What is a Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich?
According to VisitPhilly.com it was invented in 1930 by Pat Olivieri, a hot dog vendor and namesake to Pat’s King of Steaks, threw beef on his grill to make a sandwich. A passing cab driver asked for one, too, and soon Olivieri had a following.
What kind of steak should I use for Philly Cheesesteak Sliders?
The meat traditionally used is thinly sliced rib-eye or top round, although other cuts of beef are also used. I used a 1 pound top round steak that was very affordable and was easy to slice into small pieces for this sandwich.
Can I make Philly Cheesesteak Sliders and not bake or serve them right away?
This is not a make-ahead meal. You want to have everything fresh. If you leave the meat and veggie mixture on the bread too long it could get soggy.
This sandwich is best when eater fresh out of the oven! The bread is soft and warm and the cheese is melting all over the meat and veggies.
We enjoyed these with some thin fries and it was perfect. My kids said they felt like they were eating in a fast-food restaurant.

Philly Cheesesteak Slider Ingredients
- 12 Slider rolls
- 3 Tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 teaspoon Montreal Steak Seasoning
- 1 pound steak, sliced in think stips – I used top sirloin
- 1 green pepper diced
- 1 onion diced
- 3-6 slices Provolone cheese, cut in quarters (depends on how cheesy you want it!)
- Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoon butter, melted
- Salt & Pepper to taste
Tip for cutting the meat
Place steak in the freezer for 20-30 minutes to make the meat easier to slice. Remove the meat from the freezer and slice very thinly.
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F – you could also wait until after the meat is cooked to do this.
Separate the tops and bottoms of your rolls and place the bottoms in 9×13 baking dish. Add a slice of Provolone cheese on the bottom of the bun.
Sprinkle the Montreal steak seasoning on top of the meat.
Add 2 Tablespoons of olive oil to the pan and cook the steak in a cast-iron skillet or regular skillet on medium-high heat. Cook until the meat is cook through and most of the liquid in the pan has evaporated.
When the meat is done cooking move it to a plate.
Add 1 Tablespoon of oil and saute the pepper and onions until they are tender. Make sure you stir it often.
(This is a great time to preheat the oven!)
All 3 of my kids liked it – so it’s a family-friendly, crowd-pleasing slider!
When the meat, onions, and peppers are cooked, prepare your sandwiches!
Add some steak on top of the cheese and then the peppers and onions. If you want it to be extra cheese, add another quarter slice of cheese on top of the meat and veggie mixture.
Add a thin layer of mayonnaise on the top bun and add it on top of the sandwich.
Melt the 2 Tablespoons of butter and brush it on top of the sandwiches.
Cover with foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking for another 10 minutes.
Serve and enjoy!
