French Onion Sloppy Joe Sliders
What a fun play on the traditional sloppy joe! Trust me, these little babies will knock your socks off!
When it comes to sloppy joes, I usually don’t mess with our stand by sloppy joe recipe. I mean, my kids have requested it for birthday dinners, baptisms and other special occasions. When I started down this road with this recipe, I could tell that it would become a favorite. So different and the two don’t compare, other than they are both packed with flavor!
I have been loving the slider sandwiches, the past few months because they are so so easy but make such a delicious dinner. They also would be so perfect as a party food, game day dish or even an after noon snack!

How to Assemble the Sliders
To make the sliders, start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees. Carefully slice open the sliders using a large sharp knife.
Spray a baking pan or baking dish with cooking spray and put the bottoms of the Hawaiian Rolls on the pan.
Next, add a layer of Swiss cheese. You can use any cheese you would like for this recipe, but I like the flavor of Swiss cheese with this recipe.
Now you are going to add a layer of the Sloppy Joe mixture. I used just about all of the meat mixture on the sliders. Top the Sloppy Joe mixture with crispy onion straws and a layer of shredded Mozzarella cheese. Let the cheese speak to your heart, on how much you should add!
Next, add the tops of the slider rolls back on the sandwiches. The last step to making the sliders is making the butter mixture and spreading it over the tops. Melt butter and stir in some garlic powder and onion powder. Use a basting brush to brush the butter over the tops of the Hawaiian rolls. I like to sprinkle sesame seeds on top of the butter mixture before putting them in the oven.

Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 10.5 ounces condensed French onion soup
- 3 Tablespoons flour
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 package Hawaiian Sweet Rolls, 12 count
- 1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 teaspoon onion salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- French’s crispy fried onions
- sesame seeds
Instructions
Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium high heat and then drain excess grease.
Once the beef is browned, add flour and make sure the meat is covered. Cook for a few minutes to get rid of the flour taste.
Add the French onion soup to the meat. Heat until thick and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and slice the Hawaiian rolls in half with a large sharp knife. Spray baking dish with cooking spray.
Place the bottoms of the rolls on a sheet pan or baking dish.
Add a layer of Swiss cheese, the sloppy joe mixture, shredded Mozzarella cheese, and finish by topping it with the crispy fried onions.
Place the tops of the Hawaiian Rolls on top of the onions.
Stir in the garlic powder and onion powder with the melted butter.
Use a brush to brush on the butter mixture on top of the Hawaiian rolls.
Sprinkle some sesame seeds on top.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
Slice sliders and serve!
