Cuban Sandwiches are a classic go-to sandwich for many. I wanted to turn this popular sandwich into a fun party sandwiches appetizer or main course to serve on game day, for parties, or just for a weeknight meal.

These Cuban Sliders are so good but take so much less effort than your normal sandwich! I’m a huge slider fan the way it is, so these are perfect for me.

Sometimes I just can’t eat a huge sandwich all at once, and that is what makes these sliders just that much more perfect in my eyes.

Not only are they the perfect size, but there’s also a lot of them! Either great for a party or awesome for leftovers.

Hot sandwiches are one of my favorite things of all time. Come to think of it, Jeremy probably likes them even more, haha! Can’t go wrong there.

Consisting of swiss cheese, pulled pork, ham, mustard, and pickles on slider buns, how can you go wrong? Then it is all baked with a delicious glaze that ties it together.

These party sandwiches are just an easy and effortless meal that you will fall in love with, especially if you are already a huge fan of the classic sandwich anyway.

Some of my other favorite sandwich recipes we have on our site include: Crock Pot Pulled Pork Sandwiches, Slow Cooker Italian Beef Sandwiches and Mustard Grilled Chicken Sandwiches.

WHAT ARE CUBAN SLIDERS?

Melty Swiss cheese, pulled pork, ham, and mustard, all stuffed in sweet rolls. Top them off with melted butter, spices, and a garnish of pickles, and you have one epic party sandwich!

That glaze makes them golden brown and over the top delicious.

Now, I know that these are not traditional Cuban sandwiches. But a fun twist on a classic is always welcome in my book!

Living in Florida, Cuban sandwiches are on many menus. Here is my easier-to-approach version.

WHAT KIND OF PULLED PORK SHOULD I USE?

For this recipe, we use plain pulled pork that you can buy from the grocery store.

You can use leftover pulled pork that you have cooked as well. Both will work great.

ANY ADDITIONS?

You got it! Try a few of these on for size.

• Cream cheese: For a richer flavor, spread a layer on the rolls before assembling.
• Red onion: Thin slices provide a sharp contrast to the melted cheese and savory meats.
• Horseradish sauce: A spread on the rolls for guests who love a spicy edge.
• Provolone cheese: Substitute or add alongside Swiss cheese for a different melt and flavor profile.
• Hard salami: Include slices for an additional layer of savory goodness.
• Poppy seeds: Sprinkle over the buttery topping for a delightful texture and appearance.

ANY SUBSTITUTIONS?

For sure! Let me know how they work out in the comments. I haven’t tried all of these myself.

• Dijon mustard: Switch out yellow mustard in both the sandwich build and the topping for a gourmet touch.
• Cheddar cheese: Opt for cheddar instead of Swiss for a sharper, more pronounced cheese flavor.
• Hawaiian sweet rolls: Any kind of mini sandwiches or dinner roll can work if you’re looking for a different sweetness or texture.
• Brown sugar: Blend into the topping mixture for a hint of sweetness that complements the savory flavors.
• Provolone or comfort food classics like hot ham and cheese sliders: These can easily be adapted into the recipe for a comforting, nostalgic meal option.
• Healthy eating twist: Incorporate whole grain rolls and leaner meats like turkey ham to align with a medically restrictive diet or a lower calorie diet approach.

To store, place these in an airtight container or ziptop bag and place them in the refrigerator. They should keep for up to 3 days, reheat low in the oven covered with foil so they don’t burn or the microwave until heated through.

These can also be frozen, place cooled sandwiches in a freezer bag and store them in the freezer, where they should keep for up to 3 months, let defrost in the refrigerator and reheat like above.
