Mini sandwiches, major flavor! Chopped Club Sliders are everything you love about a deli-style club sandwich, transformed into buttery, bite-sized sliders perfect for parties, game days, or even weeknight dinners. With layers of crisp lettuce, savory ham, crispy bacon, and cheddar cheese tucked into soft Hawaiian rolls, each bite delivers a satisfying crunch and creamy melt.

These sliders aren’t just quick to make—they’re endlessly customizable and disappear faster than you can say “pass the platter.” Whether you’re serving a crowd or prepping easy lunches, these compact sandwiches pack a punch of texture and taste.


Preparation Phase & Tools to Use

To build perfect Chopped Club Sliders, here’s what you need on hand:

  • Sharp Chef’s Knife: Crucial for finely chopping the lettuce and evenly slicing meats for a clean stack.
  • Cutting Board: A large surface to lay out your ingredients and assemble multiple sliders efficiently.
  • Baking Dish or Sheet Pan: Useful if you plan to warm the sliders slightly to melt the cheese and crisp the buns.
  • Silicone Brush (optional): Ideal for brushing melted butter or any glaze over the tops of the buns.
  • Toothpicks: These keep your slider layers secure and double as a grab-and-go option for party settings.

Having the right tools ensures your sliders are assembled cleanly, hold together well, and look as good as they taste.

Ingredients for the Chopped Club Sliders

  • Hawaiian Rolls: Soft, slightly sweet, and the perfect base for mini sandwiches.
  • Cooked Bacon: Brings that salty crunch and smoky flavor that defines a club sandwich.
  • Sliced Ham: Adds a tender, savory bite to balance the textures.
  • Cheddar Cheese: Melts perfectly and provides a sharp, creamy edge.
  • Iceberg Lettuce: Crisp and refreshing, it adds a cooling crunch to every bite.
  • Mayonnaise (optional): A classic spread that enhances creaminess.
  • Butter (optional, for brushing): Adds a glossy, golden top if you’re baking them.

Each of these ingredients is essential for creating the layered flavor and satisfying bite of a traditional club in slider form.


How To Make the Chopped Club Sliders

Step 1: Prep Your Ingredients

Lay out all your ingredients. Shred the lettuce, cook and crumble the bacon, and slice the ham and cheese into slider-sized pieces.

Step 2: Cut and Layer

Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally (keeping them connected if you like). Spread a thin layer of mayo on the bottom half, then layer on the ham, bacon, cheese, and lettuce.

Step 3: Top It Off

Place the top half of the rolls back on. If desired, brush with melted butter.

Step 4: Bake or Serve Cold

Place the sliders in a baking dish and bake at 350°F for about 10 minutes, just until the cheese starts to melt and tops turn golden. Or skip the baking for a fresh, crisp version.

Step 5: Slice and Serve

Use a sharp knife to cut along the roll lines into individual sliders. Add toothpicks if serving for a party.


How to Serve and Store Chopped Club Sliders

These sliders are best served warm out of the oven if you’re going for that melty-cheese, buttery-top finish. However, they hold up just as beautifully when served cold, making them picnic and lunchbox-friendly.

For parties, arrange them on a platter with toothpicks for easy grabbing. Want to go extra? Add a dipping station with mustard, aioli, or a spicy mayo.

Storage Tips:

  • Wrap leftovers tightly in foil or place in an airtight container.
  • Store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, cover with foil and warm in a 300°F oven until heated through.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of ham works best?

Use thinly sliced deli ham or leftover spiral ham. Both give you great flavor without overpowering the slider.

Can I make these ahead of time?

Absolutely. Assemble the sliders, cover them with foil, and refrigerate. When ready, bake just before serving.

Can I serve them cold?

Yes! These taste delicious both hot and cold, which makes them perfect for meal prep or party trays.

What else can I add to customize them?

Turkey slices, Swiss cheese, tomato slices, or a honey mustard spread all work great.

Can I freeze them?

It’s best to freeze them before baking. Wrap tightly in foil and freeze. When ready to eat, thaw and bake as instructed.

Are these kid-friendly?

Very! Their size and mild flavors make them a big hit with little ones.
