02 - In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and horseradish if using.
03 - Slice slider buns in half horizontally and arrange bottom halves on the prepared baking sheet.
04 - Spread the sauce mixture evenly over the bottom halves of the buns.
05 - Top each bun with corned beef, a spoonful of sauerkraut, and a slice of Swiss cheese.
06 - Place the top halves of the buns over the cheese.
07 - Brush tops with melted butter and sprinkle with caraway seeds and black pepper if desired.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • You can assemble everything hours ahead and slide the tray into the oven when guests arrive, which means you actually get to enjoy your own party.
  • The combination of warm melted Swiss and that sharp little kick from the mustard-mayo spread hits the exact comfort zone between fancy and familiar.
02 -
  • Wet sauerkraut will destroy the structural integrity of your bottom bun before you reach the table.
  • Removing the foil too early gives you dry tops and unmelted cheese; patience here is everything.
03 -
  • Buy your corned beef from the deli counter the same day if possible; pre-packaged slices often dry out in their plastic coffins.
  • If your buns seem too fluffy, press them down slightly with your palm before assembling so the finished sliders are easier to pick up and eat.
