Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a 9" x 13" baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Cut the rolls in half lengthwise and separate. Set tops of rolls aside to use later in recipe. Place bottom of rolls into prepared baking dish. Spread 3 TBS of mayonnaise across the bottom of rolls. Bake in preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until golden brown.

In the meantime, chop up ham, salami, and pepperoni into bite size pieces. Place into medium skillet over medium high heat and allow to heat through and get crispy on the edges. Turn off heat.

Remove toasted rolls from oven. Place cheese evenly on top of rolls. Place cooked meat on top of cheese. Cover with the tops of the rolls. Mix together melted butter and 1 TBS Italian seasoning and brush onto the tops of rolls. Place back into oven heated at 400 degrees for 5-7 minutes.

On large cutting board, chop up lettuce, red onion, pickles, banana peppers, and combine together. Place 1/2 cup mayonnaise and deli dressing in center of mix and combine together.

Pull rolls out of oven and remove top of the rolls and set aside. Place salad mix on top of the meat evenly and place tops of rolls back on. Slice through sliders and enjoy.
