Philly cheesesteak sliders are a game day staple. Loaded with queso blanco, melty provolone cheese, shaved beef, and colorful peppers all sandwiched between mini slider buns!
Why this recipe works
These Philly cheesesteak sliders are the miniature version of a classic Philly cheesesteak stacked with tender beef, bell peppers, and tons of cheese! Sliders are perfect for football or game day parties as well as an everyday dinner when you have multiple mouths to feed. Plus, they can easily be prepped in advance to save you some time the day of.
We absolutely love everything cheesesteak-inspired over here. So much so that we’ve transformed it into a Philly cheesesteak dip for parties and even made an entire cheesesteak casserole which is a huge hit between readers and my family. It only makes sense to add these little sliders to the arsenal. Let’s jump right into the recipe.

I LOVE recipes like this but I have a delema because my wife will not eat any kind of peppers! Any suggestions? So many recipes call for peppers. By the way, I’m the chief cook and bottlewasher in our home since my wife became mildly disabled.
