Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Hot Italian Sub Sliders
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Slice the Kings Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally and lay them cut-side up in your baking pan.
  3. Layer the thinly sliced ham evenly across the bread, followed by the salami and pepperoni.
  4. Place the provolone cheese slices over the layered meats.
  5. Sprinkle the sliced pepperoncini and pickled hot cherry peppers on top of the cheese.
  6. Place the top half of the rolls over the loaded base and press down gently.
  7. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, crushed garlic, and Italian seasoning until well combined. Brush it generously over the top rolls.
  8. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil for the last few minutes to allow tops to brown.
  9. Let cool for a few minutes, then slice into individual sliders for serving.
