Cheesy BBQ Pork Baked Sliders
Cheesy BBQ Pork Baked SlidersSliders are the BEST! I tried baked sliders a year ago and I was blown away at just how delicious they were. I was wondering why I hadn’t tried them sooner?! Then again, how can sweet Hawaiian buns topped with a butter and Worcestershire sauce not be amazing? I love me some Worcestershire sauce, despite not being able to pronounce it! It adds such amazing flavor to just about anything. It is an absolute must in Chex Mix as well as these Cheesy BBQ Pork Baked Sliders!
I had a pack of Hawaiian buns sitting around when I made a batch of Pressure Cooker BBQ Pulled Pork and I knew as soon as I tried the pork that the two belonged together! I also just so happened to have some sliced Muenster cheese from the deli on hand which was perfection for this combo. Havarti is a mild creamy cheese that melts particularly well, which is idea for these sandwiches.
If you don’t have Muenster, or just aren’t a fan, you can use just about any cheese, from Cheddar to Provolone. This meal is great, because just about everything you need is a pantry staple or can easily be found at your local grocery store. It is a great dinner idea for those last minute meals you need to whip together quickly!
I made homemade pulled pork in my electric pressure cooker, but this recipe would also work great with roasted pork or a tub of that pre-cooked shredded BBQ pork or chicken you can get at the grocery store. When I’m not in the mood to cook, I grab a tub of that to have on hand for my husband to make an easy sandwich for dinner. You can whip this recipe up in 30 minutes and have a meal the whole family will love!

These BBQ pork sliders are my favorite new summer supper entree. Served with sides of slaw, fresh fruit, corn on the cob, and potato chips, these little sliders are loved by my entire family, including my 96 and 98-year-old parents! Thanks for an impressive recipe that can be easily made in just thirty minutes!

I cleaned out the freezer, & the oldest leftovers were pulled pork, & a block of Muenster. So I searched “easy casserole” with those ingredients, & your recipe was the first I saw.
It sounds so easy & so quick, & looks delicious! This will be our supper tonight. I’m gonna pick up some sweet slaw to serve with it. 🤗

Step six is unnecessary…Unless want crunchy burnt sliders.
Libby says
Definitely a matter of opinion. Karen

Cut the time on step six to just 3-4 minutes and the sliders are perfectly toasted without burning.

Can these be frozen so you can cook them in advance?
Danielle Green says
I don’t think freezing them would work well because the bread would end up soggy.
Amy says
This looks like a great recipe, and I want to try it! I noticed at the beginning you said it uses Worcestershire sauce, but I don’t see it in the ingredient list. How much do I use? Thanks!
Danielle Green says
Not sure how I missed that, but I fixed it. Thanks for pointing it out!
