Hot Italian Sub Sliders

5 from 1 vote
These Hot Italian Sub Sliders were born from one chaotic soccer birthday party where twelve hungry kids needed food fast — and they haven't failed me once since. Buttery Hawaiian rolls, layered Italian meats, melty provolone, and that garlicky butter topping come together in a way that makes people pause mid-conversation.
