Course: Appetizer, Main Course
Cuisine: American
Servings: 9 sliders

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs. shaved ribeye like heritage brand
  • 9- pack pretzel sliders
  • 9 slices provolone cheese
  • 2 medium white onions thinly sliced
  • 2 green bell peppers seeded and thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Homemade cheese whiz

  • 1 cup white American
  • 1 cup cheddar or pepper jack for a kick of heat
  • 1 tablespoon corn starch
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dry mustard powder
  • 12 oz evaporated milk

Garlic butter

  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp parsley minced

Instructions

  • Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onions and peppers until they start to caramelize, about 15 minutes. Add a few splashes of water periodically to aid in caramelization.
  • While they cook, add all the cheese whiz ingredients into a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir frequently until the cheese melts, once it comes to a low simmering boil turn off the heat. The mixture will continue to thicken as it cooks.
  • Season the peppers and onions with a pinch of salt and transfer to a bowl.
  • In the same large skillet still over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the steak in a single layer, and cook about 3-4 minutes undisturbed. Season with 1/2 tsp salt and 1 tsp pepper then flip the steak, using a spatula to break it up into bits as it cooks.
  • Once cooked through, turn off the heat and add the onion-peppers back into the pan and stir the combine with the steak.
  • Add ½ cup of cheese sauce into the steak mixture (or more/less based on your preference) and toss to evenly coat.
  • Turn the oven to broil, divide the sliders in half and place them face up on a pan to toast to golden brown. Watch closely to prevent browning.
  • Divide the steak mixture evenly over the bottom buns. To the top buns add provolone cheese slices. Place the pan back under the broiler until cheese melts and bubbles, about 2 minutes.
  • Place the top buns over the steak. Combine garlic and parsley with melted butter and brush it over the tops of the sliders. Serve with extra cheese whiz for dipping.
