Ingredients

Scale

Sliders

  • 6 large eggs, scrambled
  • 8 ounces ground pork sausage, cooked
  • 6 slices thick-cut bacon, cooked and crumbled (about 1 cup)
  • 1 cup (113 g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 package (12-count) King’s Hawaiian Rolls

Cowboy Butter

  • 1 recipe cowboy butter, melted, divided (typically made with butter, garlic, herbs, and spices)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven and prepare baking dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a 7×11-inch baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking and set it aside.
  2. Arrange bottom halves of rolls: Slice the King’s Hawaiian rolls horizontally into halves and place the bottom halves evenly into the prepared baking dish, creating a base layer for the sliders.
  3. Brush with cowboy butter: Evenly drizzle or brush about 2 tablespoons of melted cowboy butter over the bottom halves of the rolls to infuse rich flavor.
  4. Add breakfast fixings: Layer the cooked scrambled eggs evenly over the rolls, followed by the cooked ground pork sausage, crumbled bacon, and shredded sharp cheddar cheese, distributing each ingredient evenly to ensure every slider has a generous amount.
  5. Top with roll tops and butter: Place the top halves of the rolls over the assembled ingredients. Brush the tops generously with another 2 tablespoons of melted cowboy butter for a golden crust.
  6. Cover and bake: Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil to keep moisture in and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Uncover and finish baking: Remove the foil and bake the sliders for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and slightly crispy.
  8. Slice and serve: Remove the sliders from the oven and brush the remaining melted cowboy butter over the tops to add shine and extra flavor. Slice the entire sheet into individual sliders and serve warm.

Notes

  • For best results, use freshly cooked sausage and bacon to enhance flavor and texture.
  • If you don’t have a 7×11-inch baking dish, any similar-sized oven-safe dish will work.
  • The cowboy butter adds a delicious savory and herbaceous note; if unavailable, melted garlic herb butter can be a great substitute.
  • Sliders can be made ahead of time and reheated; cover with foil and warm in the oven at 350°F until heated through.
  • Customize ingredients by adding sautéed peppers or onions for extra flavor.
