# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The mustard-butter seeps into the buns creating layers of flavor you never knew sliders could have
  • They come together in under 30 minutes but taste like something from a proper deli counter
02 -
  • The foil step prevents burning while ensuring everything heats through evenly—don't skip it
  • Brush the butter mixture all the way to the edges for that golden crust everyone fights over
03 -
  • Let the assembled sliders rest for 5 minutes after baking so the cheese sets slightly and doesn't slide out when people bite in
  • Sauerkraut adds a proper Reuben twist if you want to get fancy with it
