Let’s make it
Get ready

Build the flavor
In a separate skillet, brown beef with salt and pepper until it reaches 160°F; drain and add Worcestershire sauce.
Bring it together
Place the lower halves of rolls in a baking dish. Layer beef, onions, and cheese, then add the roll tops.
Finish cooking
Brush with remaining melted butter. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 12 minutes.
Serve and enjoy
