These Steak and Cheese Sliders are the perfect addition to any game day spread or family dinner. They are sure to be a crowd pleaser, made with tender seared steak, melted cheese, and a delicious garlic sauce.
I don’t know about you but I love Philly cheesesteaks and steak and cheese sandwiches. But, I also love sliders, so I decided to combine them both into one gooey delicious recipe.
And, I am so glad that I did. These are the best sliders that I’ve ever had! If you are like me and love cheesesteaks then you will want to add these Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Shells to your next meal plan.

Ingredients and Variations
This is a quick overview of the ingredients you need to make this recipe. You can find the full list in the recipe card at the bottom of the post.
- steak – I like to use thin sliced ribeye steak, you can also use sirloin. Shaved steak would work as well.
- Oil – I used olive oil, but canola oil or vegetable oil would work as well.
- large onion – I like to use a sweet onion, but a yellow or white onion would also work.
- slider buns – If you can’t find slider buns, you can also use sweet or savory Hawaiian rolls.
- provolone cheese – Swiss cheese, cheddar cheese, or even American cheese would also work.
- butter – I used salted butter, if you use unsalted you may need to add a little extra salt to your garlic butter mixture.
- garlic powder – Fresh or minced garlic would also work.
- dried parsley
- salt and black pepper to taste
- mayonnaise
- fresh garlic cloves – You can also use the jarred kind.
- lemon juice – I like to use fresh lemon juice, but the bottled kind will also work.
- Dijon mustard – You can also use yellow mustard or your favorite grainy mustard.
Instructions
This is a quick overview of the instructions to make this recipe. You can find the full steps in the recipe card.
In a small bowl mix the aioli ingredients until combined. Cover and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, season the steaks to taste. And, then in a large preheated skillet saute the onions until soft or about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet add the steak slices and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side. Add the onion and to the skillet.
Place the rolls on a baking sheet, and top with steak mixture, and provolone cheese.
Combine the melted butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley. Then brush on the tops of the buns.
Bake uncovered in the 350-degree preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Serve with the garlic aioli.
Hint: I love to pair these sliders with this Pesto Orzo Salad or Baked Beans with Hamburger for a great meal. You can also end this meal with a sweet treat like these Mini Blueberry Pies or this Apple and Blackberry Crumble.

Wendy’s Test Kitchen Tips
- I prefer to use rib eye steak because of how tender it turns out. But, feel free to use whatever steak you have on hand.
- I like to line my baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
- Instead of dipping your sliders in the garlic aioli feel free to spread it on the slider buns before you load them up with steak and cheese.
