Instructions
Sourdough Hawaiian Rolls should be made in advance to ensure they are cooled completely in preparation for assembly.
Heat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 8x8 pan or cookie sheet with parchment paper or a reusable mat.
To start, use a bread knife to slice the Hawaiian rolls in half. If your rolls are separate and not one unit, slice the individual rolls “hamburger style”.
Open the rolls, placing the face/fop of the rolls to the side. Begin layering the cheese on the bottom of the rolls. Place the cheese slices or shredded cheese on top of the sliced sourdough Hawaiian sweet rolls.
Next, layer on the lunch meat. (If you want cheese sliders, skip the meat!). Layer on cheese and meat as many times as your heart desires.
When the layers are complete, place the top slice of the Hawaiian rolls on.
In a separate small bowl or small saucepan, melt the butter. To the butter, add the spices, mustard and Worcestershire sauce.
Spread the butter mixture to the top of the Hawaiian sourdough rolls. Sprinkle the tops of the rolls with poppy seeds (or sesame seeds).
Place in the oven in a baking dish for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the lunch meat is warmed through. If the tops of the sourdough sweet Hawaiian rolls sliders are becoming brown instead of golden brown on top, feel free to cover with aluminum foil while baking.
Remove from oven and serve warm. Option to add toppings into the sandwiches like mayo, lettuce, tomato or pickle slices. Serve with a pickle and a side of salt chips!
