Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 slider buns (soft, slightly sweet, e.g., King’s Hawaiian)
  • 6 oz sliced Genoa salami
  • 6 oz sliced pepperoni
  • 6 oz sliced ham
  • 12 slices provolone cheese
  • 2 cups shredded lettuce
  • 2 medium Roma tomatoes, thinly sliced
  • ½ small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 12 dill pickle slices
  • ½ cup Italian dressing (homemade or store-bought)
  • – 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • – 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • – 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • – ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • – salt and pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • Salt and pepper to taste (for seasoning tomatoes and onions)

Instructions

  1. Thinly slice tomatoes, red onion, and pickles. Shred lettuce finely. (About 10 minutes)
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to make the Italian dressing. Adjust seasoning to taste. (2-3 minutes)
  3. Slice slider buns horizontally, keeping them hinged if possible. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. (5 minutes)
  4. Layer one slice each of Genoa salami, pepperoni, and ham on the bottom half of each bun. (5 minutes)
  5. Top the meats with a slice of provolone cheese.
  6. Add shredded lettuce, tomato slices, red onion, and pickle slices over the cheese. Lightly season the tomato and onion with salt and pepper.
  7. Drizzle about a teaspoon of Italian dressing over the veggies on each slider.
  8. Gently press the top buns down to hold everything in place.
  9. Optional: Place sliders in a baking dish, cover loosely with foil, and warm in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 8-10 minutes to melt the cheese slightly.
  10. Serve immediately for best taste. If holding, keep covered at room temperature for up to 30 minutes.

Notes

To avoid soggy buns, spread mayonnaise on buns and pat dry juicy veggies like tomatoes before assembling. Assemble sliders just before serving. For warming, cover with foil to keep moisture and warm only until cheese melts. Variations include vegetarian fillings, spicy additions, low-carb wraps, and different cheeses.
