Best Ways to Enjoy It

There are countless ways to enjoy your Easy French Dip Sliders. For plating, stack a few sliders on a rustic wooden board and serve them with small bowls of the simmered broth for dipping. Pair them with crispy potato chips or a simple side salad drizzled with vinaigrette for a full meal. For beverages, consider classic options like iced tea or a robust dark beer to complement the rich flavors of the sliders.

How to Store

To keep your leftovers fresh, store any uneaten sliders in an airtight container in the fridge. They’re best consumed within 3 days. When you’re ready to enjoy them again, reheat the sliders in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until warmed through. To prevent them from drying out, consider wrapping them in foil.

Helpful Cooking Tips

• Opt for thinly sliced deli roast beef for the best texture.
• To enhance flavor, you can add sautéed mushrooms or peppers for a delightful twist.
• If you’re short on time, skip the simmering broth and serve with store-bought au jus.

Recipe Variations

Why not get creative with your sliders? You can experiment by using different proteins like turkey or chicken. For a cheesy twist, add a layer of cream cheese or switch the provolone for a spicy pepper jack for a kick. For a vegetarian option, use roasted vegetables and a plant-based broth.
