- In a small bowl, combine melted butter with Dijon mustard, Worcestershire Sauce, and garlic powder.

FAQs
Turkey pairs best with mild cheeses that melt well.
Havarti cheese is our cheese of choice. It’s creamy, melts beautifully, and tastes just plain delicious with both deli turkey and leftover turkey meat from the holidays.
Our other favorites are Swiss, Provolone, White Cheddar, Gouda and Colby cheese.
Absolutely. You can follow the recipe up to the point you are ready to bake. Assemble the sliders, cover them in saran wrap and bake them the next day. They are a perfect party recipe!

Notes
- Be sure to fit one slice of turkey on each bun, so once they are cooked they will pull apart easily without pulling the turkey off of another bun.
-
If you overlap the turkey to more than one bun you will have to cut through them after they are cooked to make sure they will pull apart easily.
- If the butter sauce is too thick you can heat it in the microwave to thin it out a bit for pouring or you can brush it on.

I want to make them but I want to take them with us, to a hotel
Em Beitel says
Hi Donna! They should keep just fine. Wrap them tightly in foil and plastic wrap in the container for easy transport. If you have an airtight baking dish with a lid, you could also store them that way to transport.

Really good. I made only 4 SLIDERS in my small iron skillet and they came out PERFECTLY.
We enjoyed them for lunch the Saturday after Thanksgiving 2021.
Served with my homemade cranberry sauce.
YUM!!!😁👍
Em Beitel says
That is so awesome, Marie! Thank you so much! They must have been extra amazing with homemade cranberry sauce.
Allison says
I’ve made this so many times I memorized the butter sauce ingredients. Didn’t see that it was modified until after I made it today. Thought I was going crazy until I saw the note at the top MODIFIED 3/17/21 lol!
I prefer the butter sauce with the dried onion and poppy seeds and more butter!!! But I’m sure the new modified sauce is good too.
These sliders are so delicious! My friends expect them at every pot luck now.
Em Beitel says
Allison, that is too funny – and also so flattering, thank you! We’re so glad you and your friends enjoy the recipe so much!
