Why We Love Funeral Sandwiches and How Exactly They Got Their Name
Layer: Arrange your thinly sliced deli ham evenly over the bottom rolls, making sure it covers the surface completely. Then, top the ham layer with your cheese slices so every single sandwich gets plenty of cheese.Cap: Carefully place the top half of the rolls back over the cheese layer to close up the sandwiches.Make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, Dijon mustard (or mayo), poppy seeds, onion powder, and garlic powder until the mixture is thoroughly combined.Brush: Pour or brush this seasoned butter glaze evenly over the top of the rolls, making sure to let it soak down into the seams and sides of the individual sliders.Bake: Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the oven for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, carefully remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, or until the tops of the rolls are beautiful and golden brown and the cheese is fully melted and gooey.Rest & serve: Let the pan cool down for about 5 minutes so the ingredients can set nicely. Use a sharp knife to slice along the lines into individual sliders. Serve them warm and enjoy!
