These Ham & Gouda Sliders are crowd pleasers. Melty gouda cheese and juicy ham come together with a buttery poppy seed topping that is simply amazing.

I have been obsessed with these guys lately! They are so easy, and you can create so many tasty combos.
Today though I'm sharing with y'all Ham & Gouda Sliders, and they are the bomb.com. <--- That sounded so 1990 something. Haha. Anyway.
These were inspired by a grilled cheese sandwich that my cousin ordered from The Meltdown on 30A. A few weeks ago she was here visiting from North Carolina, and we all made our way over to 30A to walk around the shops in Rosemary and Seaside.
While we were there we had to eat at one of the food trucks lined up along the street beside the iconic post office, and she and I chose to eat from The Meltdown.
I got a pimento cheese grilled cheese sandwich with bacon, and she got a grilled ham and gouda. I knew then that that combo had to be in slider form, asap!
I'm a cheese lover, and y'all, I LOVE gouda. It's creamy, nutty, and oh so delicious! When it combines with ham, holy moly, so good! I could eat these everyday for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I won't...but I could!
Sliders are one of those things that are perfect for dinner, when you're not really sure what to have, because everyone loves a good slider. Or for holidays, parties, and watching the game. I know that we'll have sliders at some point during the holiday season, for sure.
Y'all I have been so busy, my aunt and I are having a yard sale on Saturday, and I've piled Kayla's room full of stuff to get rid of. It will be nice to declutter while making a little cash.
Normally I would just toss the stuff to the Goodwill, but she mentioned she needed to have a yard sale, so I thought I'll just sale it and make some money to take on our trip to San Antonio in September, for Kayla's graduation.
I still have two closets to go through, under our bed, and Kayla's bed. Then I some how have to transport it over to her house. I'm gonna be busy!
I'm thankful that Kelsie doesn't have swim practice this week so that I can get all that done. I have photos of Halloween costumes and homeschool curriculum I'm going to put on Facebook, before putting it in the yard sale.
We haven't had a yard sale in years! I haven't even begun to think about pricing everything. Ugh. Any tips?
How To Make Ham and Gouda Sliders
To make these easy ham and gouda sliders:
- Slice the rolls in half. You don't need to separate them individually yet.
- Combine the ingredients for your topping and set aside.
- Place the bottom half of the rolls in a baking pan, top with the ham and gouda.
- Pour the butter mixture over the tops and bake until golden.
TIPS FOR HAM AND CHEESE SLIDERS
- Not a fan of ham? Try sliced turkey or chicken instead!
- You can use your favorite variety of ham – I like using smoked or black forest ham.
- Whatever meat you choose, just make sure it’s thinly sliced.
- I used gouda cheese because of those grilled cheese sandwich's, but you can use a different type of cheese. Other great options for cheese are cheddar, mozzarella, cheddar jack or provolone.

This looks like a delicious and easy dinner idea. I'll be meal planning for next month in the next day or so, these will definitely be on the plan.
Nicolas Hortense says
I love how you took a toasted sandwich a level up by using sliders instead. And of course by adding the gouda, although I am sad to say that I still haven't tried gouda cheese yet. However this really makes me want to!
Tatiana says
I like the combination of ham and Gouda a lot. It brings me memories from my childhood !
Andrea Charles says
These are quick treats I would love to eat once every day, Joanna. I'd make these sliders with turkey or chicken, especially on Friday nights. I love it when cheese melts in my mouth, but I have always used mozzarella. I love sandwiches and this one remains my all-time favourite.
