Let’s make it

  1. Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the deviled ham spread, mayonnaise, yellow mustard, and finely chopped pimentos if using. Mix until evenly blended. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  2. Assembly

    Slice the slider buns in half horizontally. Optionally, spread a thin layer of butter on each bun half for added flavor.

  3. Assembly

    Spread a heaping tablespoon of the deviled ham mixture evenly onto the bottom halves of the slider buns.

  4. Assembly

    Top each with two dill pickle slices to add crispness and tangy contrast.

  5. Assembly

    Cover with the top halves of the slider buns. Press gently to secure and serve immediately for the freshest taste.

A little kitchen wisdom

Tips & notes

Use good quality deviled ham or make your own spread for the best flavor. For a bit more zing, add a dash of hot sauce or relish to the ham mixture. Serve immediately to keep buns fresh and pickles crisp.

Saving it for later

Store leftover deviled ham mixture covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Slider buns are best stored separately in an airtight container at room temperature for 1–2 days.

Reheating

This recipe is best served cold or at room temperature. If desired, warm the slider buns briefly in a toaster oven before assembling. Avoid reheating the assembled sliders to maintain texture and freshness.
