Reuben Sandwich Sliders make the perfect party food or easy weeknight dinner!
Dinner rolls are loaded up with all of your favorite Reuben sandwich fillings, topped with a seasoned buttery topping and baked until warm and melted. This is going to be your go-to party dish!
I love a good Reuben sandwich. Rye bread loaded with dressing, swiss cheese, and sauerkraut and cooked in a pan until perfectly grilled. Those flavors together just blend so well and make the perfect sandwich or even pasta salad.
While I love a good grilled Reuben, they’re not exactly the easiest meal to make for a big crowd or party…. until now that is! I was going to make our usual Ham & Cheese sliders, or BBQ Chicken Sliders for a party when I thought, why not switch it up a bit. I’m so glad I did, these will definitely be a regular item on my party menus!
This recipe takes the amazing Reuben flavors you love, layers them in slider rolls (or dinner rolls) and bakes them until they’re warm and the cheese is melty.
The tops of these rolls are brushed with a deliciously seasoned butter taking these sliders from great to absolutely amazing! The best part is that while these are easy to prepare, they can be made hours in advance (even before any guests arrive) and just popped into the oven before eating.
While these make a great party dish, they also make a quick and easy weeknight meal. We serve them with either a side salad or veggies and dip for the perfect dinner between homework and practice! My kids love them and they reheat perfectly should you be lucky enough to have any leftovers!

Can you make sliders ahead of time? What do you recommend?
Teresa
Hi Teresa, you can prep these ahead of time but I would recommend baking them just before serving so you can enjoy them warm.
SO SO SO Good. I didn’t change a thing. Served with a salad and it was simply delicious! Saved to my Favourites.
This recipe is divine!!! I’ve made it several times and it’s always a hit. To us, the caraway seeds are a must to give the plain Hawaiian rolls a rye vibe.
if I have it, I put two layers of cheese just because I’m addicted to cheese.
Thank you for this fantastic recipe!
I have made these Reuben Sandwich Sliders several times now for my husband and I. We love them! Quick e and easy to put together and so delicious! I would encourage everyone bto try them
I made these for my St Patrick’s Day party. They were a big hit! I followed the recipe exactly. I made them early in the morning and kept them in the fridge till Party time. This I added butter topping and baked. Will definitely make these again!!
My husband purchased a brisket for me (not corned beef that has the seasoning). Because I am the only one in the house who anxiously waits for St. Patrick’s Day … I’ll eat the entire thing myself!!! The meal followed by your receipt for the sandwich.
Thank you, I’ll let you know how it goes!!!
Regular beef brisket does need a different preparation than corned beef brisket. Here is a recipe for Barbacoa that uses regular beef brisket. Leftovers make amazing sandwiches too!
Thinking of using turkey instead ? Do you have a homemade dressing recipe ?
Sounds like a great idea! We use this recipe for homemade thousand Island dressing.
looking forward to your recipes
Made these tonight for my New Yea s Appetizer offerings. These things were the Bomb!!? My wife is a Huuuuge Ruben fan, as am I, and these were the perfect bite, served on top of Rye dinner rolls. Will be making these many many more times, fo sure…
I bought King’s Hawaiian rolls for these…has anyone tried that? Can’t wait to eat these!! A friend brought to a party once and they were delish!!
Kings Hawaiian would be perfect for this!!
