Recipe preparation

Essential Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious dish:

Boneless Roast Beef: Choose a well-marbled cut for juicy results; chuck roast works great.
Slider Buns: Opt for soft dinner rolls that can hold all that delicious filling without falling apart.
Beef Broth: Use low-sodium broth to control saltiness while keeping the beef moist during cooking.
Onions: Sweet onions add depth; caramelize them until golden brown for maximum flavor.
Cheese: Provolone or cheddar melts beautifully on top of those sliders—choose your favorite!
Condiments: Horseradish sauce or creamy mayo adds a punch to elevate those sliders even more.

The full ingredients list, including measurements, is provided in the recipe card directly below.

Let’s Make it Together

Prep Your Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients on the counter—this makes cooking smoother and faster. Chop the onions finely so they caramelize evenly.

Sear the Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, sear the roast beef on all sides until browned. This should take about 3-4 minutes per side; don’t rush it—you want that beautiful crust!

Add Flavorful Liquid: Transfer the seared beef into a slow cooker and pour in enough beef broth to cover halfway. Add chopped onions on top and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.

Slow Cook Until Tender: Set your slow cooker on low and let it work its magic for 6-8 hours until the roast shreds easily with a fork. The smell will be heavenly!

Shred and Assemble: Once cooked, shred the beef using two forks right in the slow cooker. Stir everything together so it absorbs those delicious juices.

Toast Your Buns and Serve!: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cut slider buns in half and place them on a baking sheet. Fill each bun with shredded beef, add cheese on top, and toast in the oven until melted (about 5 minutes).

Enjoy these Roast Beef Sliders at your next get-together or cozy night in!
