Important Recipe Notes:

Use good-quality pastrami: Opt for deli-fresh or thick-cut slices for the best flavor and texture.
Grill the buns: Lightly toasting or grilling the slider buns adds a delicious crispiness and prevents sogginess from the slaw.
Prep the slaw ahead: Letting it sit for 10–15 minutes allows the flavors to meld and makes assembly quick and easy.
Customize the slaw: Add shredded carrots, a splash of apple cider vinegar, or a pinch of sugar to suit your taste.
Don’t skip the cheese (if using): Swiss or provolone pairs beautifully with pastrami and melts nicely on the grill.
Perfect for a crowd: These sliders are best served warm, but you can keep them warm in the oven on low if you’re making a big batch.
